Chapter 131 Even though Jordan Senior owned 100% of the shares and was the one who bequeathed the shares to his children and grandchildren, there were at least 10 other shareholders who did not belong in the Jordan family but had invested in the Jordan Group and managed various technical aspects of the company. As a result, they enjoyed a certain percentage of the dividends paid out by the company each year. However, this also meant they had no interest in the company shares and only money.
All those years ago, the terms of their collaboration were made clear between them and Jordan Senior. Each year, the Jordan Group would have to pay out a certain percentage of their profits to their investors. It was with this agreement that the company was created.
If they started making a ruckus, the entire Jordan Group would cease to function and that would be more devastating than having their share price drop. Jordan Senior frowned and asked, âAre all of them here?â
âAll of them! Thatâs not all. All our close and distant relatives have also arrived,â replied Hobson. With that, a cacophony could be heard outside. Jordan Senior put his prayer book down and stood up. After massaging his knees, he started to make his way out. (This Novel daily new chapters provide it www.InfoBagh.Com)
Lily Granger saw him coming out and swiftly walked up toward him to say, âFather, that adopted daughter has already confessed.
Why are you still protecting her? She called out Amelia, saying that she harbored evil intentions. However, Charmine isnât that much of a saint herself!â
âThe Jordan family has suffered a huge loss because of her. We must kick her out of the Jordan Groupâs Board of Directors and make her return the fifteen percent of company shares she owns!â Felix shouted angrily.
The rest of the shareholders all chimed in, âThatâs right! Make her return her shares! Kick her out of the Board of Directors!
Sever all ties with her!â
Jordan Senior wore a solemn expression as he said, âHas the matter been investigated and solved? Has the police department made a statement?â
âBut Charmine has already signed a letter of guarantee stating that she would compensate everyone for their losses in two days!â responded one shareholder.
Jordan Seniorâs face was deeply lined with wrinkles. It looked like he had aged in a mere few days. As Tiffany observed the scene, she rushed up to support her grandfather while saying, âGrandpa, Iâm sorry. I was also of the opinion that my sister was framed. Iâve spent a lot of effort over the past two days thinking of ways to help her. Iâve even tried speaking to the other eleven supermodels but theyâre not budging with their demands for compensation. They even forced my sister to create this letter of guarantee...â (This Novel daily new chapters provide it www.InfoBagh.Com)
Tiffany handed the document over to Jordan Senior. Jordan Senior could see that it was indeed Charmineâs handwriting and staggered back in shock. Tiffany held onto Jordan Senior, supporting him as she consoled him, âGrandpa, you can be assured that I will not let my sister be forced to pay this compensation. You can relax. Furthermore, you donât have to b e too worried about my sister. Charmine still has her diamond mines. In any case, she wonât be short of cash. Even after she gets out of prison, sheâll be able to clothe and feed herself. â
âThe matter of importance right now was to sever her ties with the Jordan family. We must ensure that the Jordan Groupâs shares do not continue to drop in value. Secondly, we must act so that my sister isnât the target of hate for so many people!â
âThatâs right, dad. If you really care about Charmine, you would take away her shares. As so many people here detest her, we cannot predict how theyâll react. Who knows if they might be driven by their anger to harm her...â Joey chipped in.
Jordan Seniorâs face grew even darker as he looked worried beyond reason. However, he was clearer than most about the capabilities of this brood of vipers. If this was allowed to continue, they would definitely not go easy on Charmine.
Jordan Senior sighed deeply and said, âWeâll do as you have decided. In two days, weâll have Nate Colley, our family lawyer, meet with Charmine to organize the share transfer.â A s soon as he said that, Jordan Senior turned around and walked back into the prayer hall.

Tiffany furrowed her brow and asked, âGrandpa, who will you transfer Charmineâs shares to?â
Jordan Senior paused his steps momentarily before speaking,â Letâs transfer the shares to Adam for now.â After he said that, he turned around and left.
Tiffanyâs heart leaped with a sense of glee. Adam Jordanâs two other children were disappointments to him, so he only adored Tiffany. If the shares landed in Adamâs hands, sooner o r later, they would belong to Tiffany!
Tiffany consoled Jordan Senior with an extremely gentle and sweet tone, saying, âThatâs great. Make sure you focus on getting some rest, Grandpa. Donât be too upset. My sister still has her diamond mines, so she wonât be left destitute.â
Jordan Senior paid no heed to anyone once he was through and shut the prayer hallâs door. Only after he heard the noises outside quiet down did he walk to the wall and press a secret button. The gleaming wall suddenly opened up to reveal a groove.
Inside the groove lay a framed photo and the name on i t did not belong to a Jordan.
