Chapter 382 Negotiation

Josie undoubtedly caved under such silence.

She broke the silence with a strained voice. “So your true purpose wasn’t Carter Group. It was Wyatt.”

Dexter was playing with his wineglass with his bony hands. “Once Yanis’ process was done, it was only natural to recover the value.”

He had deliberately let go and given Wyatt authority but wouldn’t let Wyatt truly occupy the market. He had tormented Wyatt to reclaim the power.

Josie took a deep breath. “Wyatt’s company can’t go on the market, and he agreed to allow the overseas company… no, to let Russell Group into the board of directors. We will let you into the general shareholders’ meeting, but you can’t touch his position. His position must be safe.”

Dexter was raising his glass to his lips, and he paused. The corners of his lips twitched, and he said contemptuously, “When the market opens tomorrow, the stock prices will continue to drop. The shares he owns will become a worthless sheet of paper. What leverage do you have to make demands?”

After that, he finished his drink.

The strong alcohol went down his throat violently.

Josie’s hands by her side clenched tightly. He had really pushed them into a corner.

She took a deep breath and suddenly raised her head. Her bitter gaze turned into a firm one. She restrained her voice from trembling. “I’m not discussing this with you on behalf of Wyatt.”

The man raised his brows slightly. He didn’t expect what she would say next. “I’m sitting here as your wife.”

Dexter’s heart stopped. He was momentarily taken aback.

“I’m begging you to let them go.”

From Josie’s strong demeanor, he never thought she would suddenly arm-twist him. She pulled the rug from under him…

She looked down and felt extremely humiliated. She hadn’t wanted to use such a way to plead with him.

But if she didn’t… She didn’t know how ruthless the man would be.

Of course, she wasn’t confident Dexter would be moved because of what she said.

What will he say? Will he say that work and personal matters can’t be intertwined? Or will he ridicule me for being naive again?

Josie was prepared, but she never thought the man would put the wineglass down. It made a sound in the quiet room. He said indifferently. “Since Wyatt has given up other seats, I can allow him to stay on the board. The brands under his banner will still be cohesive. I promise they won’t be torn apart and relocated to other companies.”

The light cast a dim shadow on the man’s face. Even his side profile was handsome.

She had successfully pulled the rug from under him.
