My Disabled CEO Stood up And Kissed Me (Natalie) novel Chapter 192

Chapter 192 You Are So Sweet

Kendrick didn't stop Natalie.

If he refused her to read the document, it would only bring her more anxiety and suspicion.

Sure enough, her face turned a bit pale after reading it.

As she grew up in an ordinary family, naturally she had no idea that even having a child in a wealthy family could be used as a bargaining chip in exchange for benefits.

Moreover, it was almost an unfair and one-sided oppression.

She raised her face after reading it and asked in disbelief, "Do... do you want me to sign it?"

Kendrick just took the document out of her hand and tore it into pieces directly. He threw them into the wastebasket aside and said, "Just treat an outrageous agreement like that as a joke and that's it."

She was not a fool.

Naturally, she knew it was Seth's idea.

She thought that he would take it to exchange benefits with Kendrick.

"If I sign it," she asked, "then you..."

"No such an assumption at all!" Kendrick interrupted, "First, I won't let you sign it. It's not fair to you. Second, I won't be restricted by others."

Seth's offer was rather generous. But Kendrick would not do anything to harm her for the sake of interest, even though Seth would give him the whole Ramsey Group.

Besides, a second time of that would be likely to occur, once something like that happened for the first time.

He couldn't be held hostage for any benefit.

Natalie became speechless immediately as she looked at him.

If... she meant, if Kendrick persuaded her to sign the agreement and said that it was a sign of love for him, what should she do then? Deep in her heart, she felt that the document was totally unfair to herself, but what if she sacrificed herself for his benefit?

However, he didn't persuade her to do so. Instead, he expressed his firm attitude directly.

No matter how many love words and no matter how sweet and beautiful they sound, they were not as important as his choice at that moment.

Kendrick changed the topic, "Have you finished all the checks? You left the hospital so early, didn't you?"

"I have. Nothing serious. Well, I have sent you the report."

"Prof. Knox said that he would check out the cause of the disease for me." He had also taken her gene.

"There's no harm in health checks." Kendrick rubbed her head and asked, "Hungry?"

"Oh right, I saw a porridge shop downstairs and it looked delicious. How about I buy some for you?"

"All right."

After she opened the door and went out, he took out the cigarette case from under the coffee table and lit a cigarette for himself.

As he had been making a choice since he was young, it was not difficult for him to choose A or B. Just like what she had told him before, he could follow his heart, no matter if it was A or B.

He quickly calculated the bargaining chips he had. There were six investment companies, four securities companies and a chip semiconductor factory all controlled by him. Besides, there were dozens of other companies where he had some controlling interest, including some shares he had in Ramsey group. He was thinking about the shares he could control if a financial war was completely waged.

So far, it may be impossible for him to control the whole group immediately.

But Seth couldn't go anything to him either.

It was the artificial intelligence and semiconductor business, which had just started to have some progress, that would be affected badly. He had devoted all his efforts to them. But it was very likely that the whole business line would be adjusted and terminated due to internal friction, which was something he didn't want.

In that circumstance, he was taking a defensive stance.

What if he took an offensive position?

Then he would just sacrifice Ramsey Finance and start over.

Thousands of complicated thoughts were surging in his mind. The cigarette flickered in his hand. With the bluish-white smoke, he looked rather handsome and deep.

It was a kind of expression that a man would only have when he faced major choices.

The door was opened with a click.

No one knew why Natalie came back.

Immediately, he came back to his senses. As he saw the cigarette in his hand, he just looked for the ashtray instantly and wanted to stub it out.

Where was the fucking ashtray?

He felt that none of his children and grandchildren could save him a worry.

He pounded the table and said angrily, "They are pissing me off. Edgar, tell me, am I wrong?" He told Edgar what had happened today, mentioning how Kendrick rebelled against him.

Edgar comforted him, "Well, I have watched Kendrick grow up and know that he is too strong a character. You just can't push him."

"Well, I just did that for his own good, didn't I?" Seth felt that he had been wronged, "And he just replied to me like that, as if I had done something bad to his wife. He just started to teach me a lesson and criticized me for taking a person as a childbirth tool!"

He was rather furious.

It was rare for him and Kendrick to argue so much in their work. As they were both tough, they would quickly take action once something was settled.

Seth just intervened in Kendrick's personal relationship this time, but he only met with a rebuff.

"It will be better to leave it to Kendrick and let him deal with it!"

Seth pursed his lips.

He was rather determined and he would never give up until his goal was achieved.

Then he would see who couldn't stand it and thus compromise first.

But soon, before he could figure out what he would do next, Ramsey Finance was short sold maliciously, causing its stock price to plummet a lot. Its financing product was sold off and brought the group a loss of hundreds of millions and countless bad debts in an instant.

Financial business was just highly risky.

As Melvin came back and was greedy for financial interests, he just wanted to take over some shares.

Kendrick did not object and gave them to him directly.

Unexpectedly, the bank started to fail at that moment.

Misfortune just never came singly.

Seth held an emergency meeting overnight. But Kendrick was absent and his assistant just couldn't reach him, no matter what way he had tried.

Finally, as a last resort, Seth called Natalie.

Looking at the man lying on his lap and reading a book, Natalie forced herself to lie, "I don't know where he is!"
