Chapter 1192 Trade the secret for another one (1)
James returned to the study quickly, with his long lega, and took out his phone to make a call.
Carol, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened by the phone call. She was surprised to see that it was James calling her.
James never called her first, so why was he calling so late at night?
She stretched out her wrinkled fingers and pressed the answer button, âHelloâ¦â
James didnât even bother with pleasantries, he just said coldly, âEvans Corporationâs shares, Iâll give you back 10%, and Iâll give your son an additional 5% in stock options. That secret youâre keeping, youâll take it to the grave. Also, donât try to incite the Evans family to go after my wife again, or you and your son will have nowhere to hide!â
When Carol heard that James was going to give her shares and increase her sonâs stock options, her mouth curved up in a smile. But before she could widen it, the words ânowhere to hideâ froze her lips.
âYouâ¦â
James interrupted her, âYou have five seconds to think about it.â
Trade the secret for another o⦠This was clearly coercion!
Carol cursed him, âYou can try if you have the guts,â but nodded her head during the countdown, âOkay, I agree.â
Her husband had died a long time ago, and over the years, her resentment had faded.
Being able to exchange this secret for shares and ensure her sonâs future, even her grandchildrenâs future, would be worry-free.
The goal has been achieved, so Carol will naturally accept it. As for the other Evans family members who were encouraged by her but did not get any equity back, what does it have to do with her?
If the other family members question her about how she was able to get back the shares, she will just push everything onto Dominic and let him face it himself.
Carolâs plan was well thought out, but she didnât expect James to be so smart and figure out so quickly that she was the one who encouraged the other family members. J really lives up to being the one in power.
However⦠itâs not easy to get an advantage from James, so why not take the opportunity to get another benefit? âI have a daughter, and I also want her to have a 5% increase in stock options. I can exchange it with another secret. What do you think?â
Trade the secret for another o⦠James, who was planning to hang up the phone, heard this and slowly put down his finger. âIf itâs not an important matter, you wouldnât be proposing a trade with me. You know my methods.â
Although it was a threat, Carol was not afraid. âItâs related to your father and older brother. I donât think itâs an unimportant matter, do you?â
