Chapter 361

“Will the fall of Stark Group bring any loss to Myra?” Tony arched his brow while questioning Cameron.

“Of course! Have you already forgotten that she has twenty-five percent of the shares of the company?

If the company goes bankrupt, she won’t be able to get anything.”

Cameron gritted his teeth. In fact, it wasn’t just twenty-five percent. He was aware that there was someone else who had been buying off the company’s stocks that were on the market. Other than Tony, Cameron couldn’t imagine anybody else doing that.

However, he could only feign ignorance. “Of course, I wouldn’t make you help us for free. If Stark Group manages to fare through this, I’m willing to offer you Green Palms Project’s full profit. How does that sound?”

“Green Palms Project’s full profit…” There was a hint of ridicule in Tony’s voice while he sandwiched his phone between his shoulder and his cheek. He took out a cigarette, only to quickly throw the cigarette into the bin beside him as soon as he glanced at the belly of the woman who was sitting beside him.

After that, he picked up his phone again to continue the conversation casually. “President Stark, you must be joking. How could there be any more profit to the project after everything that happened? It would be a miracle to not suffer a loss.”

Upon hearing what Tony said, Cameron’s countenance shifted drastically as he gripped onto his phone tightly. “Won’t you be able to create miracles if you are the one who strikes? Green Palms Project isn’t that big of a project anyway. You might be able to earn more through the project compared to when Stark Group is managing it.”

Cameron absolutely believed that given its power and influence, Hart Group would be able to sell off the entire project within mere minutes, which would guarantee full profit. On the contrary, Stark Group wouldn’t be able to do much else with the project. Moreover, they might suffer a loss because of that.

It was all because of what Kris did last night, which turned out to be a liability for him. That was why he had to come to Tony in the first place. Since Stark Group wouldn’t be able to earn much anyway, he figured he should offer everything up to Tony so that he wouldn’t turn down the offer because of the potential loss that he might suffer.

“I never liked putting in the effort just so I could pick up other people’s pieces.” Tony put on a half smirk as he spoke. “However, I’ll consider helping you out if I think there’s something to gain out of it.” He seemed to be indicating something.

Upon hearing that, Myra lifted her head to check on him. She didn’t miss out on what he meant, so she reached out to hold his hand that was still covered in a splint before smiling at him appreciatively.

Arching his brow, Tony whispered into her ear abruptly, “You need to come up with another method if you want to thank me.”

Although he’s still on the phone with Cameron, he’s acting so cheekily! Of course Myra knew what he meant, so she blushed profusely while glaring at him. After that, she walked away from him toward the sofa. Perhaps because she was pregnant, her legs felt tired after standing for some time.

Letting go of Myra, he watched her retreating figure with a smile on his face. Yet, he was merciless while talking to Cameron. “It’ll depend on if you’re willing to prove your sincerity.”

Cameron’s face fell as soon as he heard that, for he knew full well what Tony was after. He was aiming for none other than even more of Stark Group’s shares. Roughly estimating, Myra now possessed over thirty percent of Stark Group’s shares. If he were to hand over more, the company would have to elect a new board of directors, which would even lead to someone else becoming the chairman of the board.

Throughout his life, Cameron valued power more than his own life, so he would never allow something like that to happen. Yet, Tony wouldn’t help Stark Group if he didn’t defer to him, spelling doom for the company.

A sense of irritability crept throughout him as he pulled his lips into a thin line and clenched his fists.

Tony Hart, you b*stard! He sure knows how to target my weak spot! As my daughter, how dare Myra repay me like this after I spent all those years raising her?

Cameron was sweating profusely, tormented to make a decision. Seemingly aware of his situation, Tony waited patiently for his decision without rushing him. Begrudgingly, Cameron offered, “How about I give you another five percent of our shares?” An added five percent meant Cameron would still have more shares than Myra, so he was still in control of the board.

Narrowing his eyes, Tony said, “Ten percent.”

Cameron’s countenance shifted when he heard that. “Mr. Hart, you should be aware how much ten percent of my company’s shares are worth. It’s way more than the profit you would be able to earn through Green Palms Project! Mr. Hart, you’re being a bit too greedy.”

“I suppose I should remind you that it is only in the case your company isn’t bankrupt that I’ll be able to earn more than the project’s profit through holding onto ten percent of your shares,” Tony refuted calmly.

Hearing that, Cameron’s eyes were set ablaze. Ten percent of the company’s shares… He was well aware of Tony’s intentions. If Myra were to take over the company prior to that, he wouldn’t even be half as nervous about it. After all, a girl in her late teens wouldn’t be able to handle the company that he had managed for so many years. Therefore, he could easily chase her out of the company.

However, things were different as it were. Myra had enlisted the help of Tony Hart, the man who could subvert everything. While Cameron might still have some confidence in the beginning, it was mostly diminished after his recent business venture. His chest was heaving due to anger as he spoke, and he had cut all pleasantries. “If this is what you wish for…”

Suddenly, his phone began ringing. With a frown, he checked on the screen to see that someone was calling him. As soon as he saw the caller ID, his eyes lit up. Narrowing his eyes, he said to Tony, “I’m sorry, but I have another call to answer. Let us talk about this at another time.”

With that, he hung up, while Tony narrowed his eyes upon hearing that. When Myra noticed the dangerous glint in his eyes, she asked while sitting on the sofa, “What’s the matter?”

Tony arched a brow at her. “Cameron might have found help.”

“Help? Who?” Myra frowned slightly. Who would want to help him at such a time? Haven’t the Waltons decided to stay out of this? Who could he possibly have gotten help from? At that moment, a thought crossed her mind, which caused her to frown even deeper. “Could it be… Sean?”

After that, she stood up nervously to walk up to Tony. “Sean told me he has proof of you tinkering with Green Palm Project. If he handed the proof to Cameron, Cameron would never let things slide.”

She knew Tony had tinkered with the project, but she believed he would not force Stark Group into bankruptcy. While Cameron might come out of it tattered, she knew Tony wouldn’t let things spiral out of control. But if Sean and Cameron decide to work together at this point in time…

Noticing her worry, Tony gave her a faint smile before looping an arm around her waist to lead her out of the office. “Why would I have left all evidence intact when Sean mentioned he has proof?”

“But how could you have possibly removed all evidence?” Myra was getting worried, as Tony only got involved in the mess because of her. If he was implicated and sued for committing commercial crimes… The thought of it caused her to tighten her grip on his hand.

“You don’t have to worry about me.” He gave her a pat on the back when they entered the elevator.

“Don’t meddle in this. I have my own plans.”
