Chapter 503 Burning Bridges
Even though Demi did not appreciate her granddaughter rudely hanging up on her like that, she knew better than to get upset over such a trivial matter at the moment. The elderly woman quickly instructed Brian to borrow some money.
Without Four Seas Corporation’s or the other corporation’s influence, Brian was able to take foans from banks again.
However, without sufficient collateral, he could only get thirty million from the banks. Still seventy million short, the man then decided to go to Stuart, who had just recovered from a leg injury and was in a fantastic mood. After being told that the Jenningses were planning to do a share buyback, Stuart generously loaned the remaining balance to them.
Three days later, Heather went back to Alex’s office to look for him but still had no luck.
Because the man needed to focus on his efforts in the tech dome, he only dealt with Heather through his secretary.
As soon as Jessica informed Alex of the Jenningses’ decision, he had them discuss the matter with his
ttorneys.
With the extra one hundred million they had borrowed, the Jenningses eventually bought their shares ack from Alex.
fter the contracts were signed, Heather realized that the ten percent of shares Alex had gifted her no nger belonged to her; they were also sold to her family.
that point, Heather discovered that she had made a stupid mistake. She failed to mention the shares at belonged to her when signing the contracts since they did not cross her mind then.
ranny, about the ten percent that the chairman gifted to me, they’re still mine, right?” asked Heather as
looked at her grandmother.
on’t worry too much about the shares, Heather. I only have so many years left. I promise you that after I is away, you and your siblings will receive your fair share,” replied Demi with a smile.
mediately, Heather’s heart sank, for she knew her grandmother meant to tell her that she would not be ing her shares back.
er everything I’ve sacrificed for this family? Our family business would’ve had to declare bankruptcy a months ago if it weren’t for me. Do you think it would be thriving now had I not done something.
ut it back then? After everything I’ve done, don’t I at least deserve to have what’s supposed to be mine?” ther was doing her best to suppress the rage inside of her.
now how much you’ve sacrificed for this family, Heather. I know, and I haven’t forgotten anything you or us. You just have to trust me for now, okay?”
i smiled at her granddaughter once again before turning to the others. “Now that we have re-acquired hares, Jennings Corporation is whole again. So, today, we’ll discuss our corporate reorganization.”
hearing the announcement, Jacob immediately brimmed with smiles.
ther has proven herself time and time again, especially in terms of attracting business. She’s the n why Jennings Corporation is doing so well today, so I decided to appoint her as deputy general ger and project director.” Demi then shifted her attention to Heather. “I trust that you have no

problem with the positions assigned to you?”
In response to that, the young woman only nodded. Since she thought Demi would appoint Brian as general manager, there was not much to say about the appointment.
If it were up to her, the reorganization would have been very different.
“Good!” Demi nodded at her granddaughter before turning to Lucas. “You still have much to learn. I’m appointing you as deputy project director so that you can learn from your sister.”
The elderly woman did not want to seem unappreciative since she understood it was primarily due to Heather’s efforts that Jennings Corporation could be whole again. Plus, she even took the ten percent of shares that belonged to her granddaughter.
As Heather mentioned, she did manage to bring the corporation to new heights, so someone as shrewd as Demi would never want to lose such talent.
As for Lucas, he did not appreciate the new position he was assigned since he used to be a department manager. “I prefer to stay in the Purchasing Department, Granny.”
