Bang....
William was stunned as though he encountered with a bolt from the sky. He looked at Rebecca, Caroline and Samuel with dull eyes. His voice trembled badly, “Rebecca, is what he said... true?”
“Did you really sell the Virgil Corporation to Peter?”
Rebecca looked indifferent. She curled her lips, and showed some disapproving.
“What else can I do? Mr. Lawson has already transferred the shares of the Vesper Corporation to us. Now, we are all shareholders holding shares.”
When Rebecca said this, her words were full of pride.
Caroline, Patricia, Samuel and others did not have any guilty look on their faces.
In fact, this result was better for them, with a sense of revenge.
Virgil Corporation was more like other people’s property. It earned 10% of the shares of the Vesper Corporation in exchange for other people’s property!
As for William’s future career, who would care?
“This is the only company under the Ford family’s name. How can you sell it?” William’s face was livid and he roared angrily at Rebecca.
“You’re dying! How you dare yelling at me!”
Rebecca was startled and then became angry, “How can the Virgil Corporation develop under your name? Mr. Lawson has lots of money and broad contacts. Mr. Lawson will be able to do much better in the same project.”
“But now the company is on the right track….”
"So what?"
Rebecca impatiently interrupted him, “Can you always be lucky? Relying on this loser, you want to revitalize the Ford family. What a dream!”
Mentioning that, Rebecca took a cold look at Leo.
Patricia also sneered. Leo was just a gigolo son-in-law who wanted to surpass the Ford family. That was absolutely not allowed.
Rebecca’s words seemed to empty William’s whole body. With a puff, he sat back in his chair powerlessly. His eyes were red and full of grief.
Leo saw that in his eyes and his heart was full of murderous thoughts.
Only the betrayal of the closest person could completely defeat a person. He did not expect that the people in this family were so selfish and ruthless.
“That’s enough!”
Peter roared, glanced at the audience and said coldly, “I’m not here to hear your family quarreling! Sign the contract for me and get out!”
Then he put the contract in front of William.
However, William was still immersed in the sadness and anger of his wife’s betrayal.
Peter immediately looked at Rebecca and Caroline, “You two, the wife and the daughter, please persuade him to sign his name. Mr. Reyes and I are still waiting.”
Thomas also urged, “Mr. Lawson and I are very busy. We still have a lot of business to deal with. We don’t have much time to stay here with you!”
After Rebecca signed the transfer agreement, Peter immediately called Thomas to divide the Virgil Corporation together.
According to Peter’s character, he would never share interests with Thomas, but now it’s different. Today he got the news that Thomas’ position in the Kingston Chamber of Commerce has just been promoted from a junior member to an intermediate member.
Peter immediately called Thomas and sent the cake of the Virgil Corporation to Thomas to taste it. He hoped that Thomas would be more convenient in the future.
Thomas also readily accepted, and they came to the Virgil Corporation together.
Rebecca and Caroline looked at each other, nodded to each other, and then came to William from left to right to persuade him.
“William, we also care for this family. The Virgil Corporation is of no value. How can it be valuable when compares to the shares of the Vesper Corporation? With these shares, I can afford you even if you don’t go to work and stay at home every day.”
“Yes, dad, you’ve worked for this family for most of your life. It’s time to have a rest. Let me and mom take care of the family. We’ll not lack of money.”
William showed a touch of fortitude on his face and categorically refused, “I won’t sign my name!”
“Hey, why you didn’t listen to my words?”
Rebecca was in a hurry, “Mr. Lawson and Mr. Reyes have come in person. What a meaningless insistence are you making?”
Peter’s eyes also became darken, “If he still doesn’t want to sign, I will regard the cooperation as a failure and confiscate the 10% shares given to you!”
Rebecca listened to him, and looked more worried, “No, Mr. Lawson, please give me more time. I make the final decision for our family. I will let him sign it.”
Then she looked at William and said fiercely, “Sign it soon! Mr. Lawson and Mr. Reyes are waiting!”
“Dad, just sign it.”
Suddenly, Leo said with a smile.
Suddenly, everyone’s eyes were incredibly placed on Leo.
In particular, Caroline and Rebecca were like seeing ghosts in the daylight. This loser usually worked against them. Why did he become smart today?
William also looked at Leo in shock, “Leo, why even you persuaded me to sell the company?”
