Chapter 143 Crystal Cries

Comad angrily pointed at Crystal and shouted, “This is the Thompson family, your mother died a long time ago!”

Crystal gave a cold smile and said, “Conrad, you are not a human. being yourself, so don’t call yourself an elder in front of me!”

“Since you have spoken such heartless and ungrateful words, I am determined to retrieve all of my mother’s belongings!”

“One day, I will kick Adrienne and you, the fraud, out of my mother’s place!”

“Robin, let’s go!” Crystal, with tears in her eyes, pulled Robin out of the Thompson’s villa.

Sitting in the car, Crystal leaned on the steering wheel and started

crying.

Robin paused for a moment and said. “It’s the first time I’ve seen you cry. What’s wrong? Do you need my help?”

“Go away! Not a single one of you men is a good person! Leave me alone, I want to cry for a while!” Crystal burst into tears.

“Okay, you can cry.” Robin furrowed his brow.

Crystal cried for a while and suddenly looked up.

Seeing Robin leaning back in the seat with his eyes closed, he exclaimed in annoyance, “You, you actually fell asleep?”

“You said you wanted to cry for a while, so you expect me to stay

11:30

awake and cry with you?” Robin innocently looked at the angry Crystal

Crystal punched Robin in the chest and said. “You bastard!”

“Don’t you dare curse at me again, do you hear me?” Robin furrowed his brow

Crystal glared at Robin fiercely and said, “You are such a jerk!”

Robin was stunned for a while, “You, woman… You jerk! Your dad is a jerk! Your stepmom is also a jerk!”

“Oh my god! You, man… You curse so well, hahaha…” Crystal looked at Robin acting silly and was stunned for a while, then suddenly burst. into laughter.

Robin’s mouth twitched as he looked at Crystal’s joyful smile and muttered, “How cunning!”

Crystal stopped laughing and gave Robin a disdainful look.

“Isn’t this right? Crying won’t solve the problem,” Robin glanced at Crystal. “There’s only one way to deal with bad people, and that’s to beat them up!”

Crystal wiped away her tears and started the car. “My mother was the heiress of the Lynch family, a prominent noble family in the capital city of Draccastle. It was during my college years that she met Conrad. He’s my jerk of a father!”

“They used to be a couple, him and Adrienne.”

“He saw my mother as beautiful and wealthy. He immediately left Adrienne and crazily pursued my mother.”

“The Lynch family strongly disagreed with my mother marrying

Chapter 149 Crystal Cre

Conrad, a penniless man, after they found out”

“My mother. kind and innocent, broke ties with the Lynch family and ran away from them to marry Conrad, resolutely and decisively ”

“My grandmother felt sorry for my mother and secretly sent her 5 million.”

“My mother had a talent for doing business, and through her relentless efforts, she created the Thompson Group we have today.”

However, while my mother was working hard for the Thompson Group, Conrad was secretly getting involved with Adrienne and having clandestine interactions.

“My mother was very angry when she found out. By that time, both my brother and I had already been born.”

“My mother couldn’t bear to separate my brother and me, so she swallowed her pride and didn’t choose to divorce Conrad.”

“Conrad pretended to my mother that he had cut off contact with Adrienne, but behind her back, he intensified their relationship!”

“My mother, upon learning the news, was melancholic all day long and eventually died in sorrow and anger.”

“I hated that couple so much! They almost took away all of my mother’s property.”

“Although I held the Thompson Group shares that my mother had left me at the time, I was the largest shareholder of the Thompson Group.”

“But I hardly gained any benefits in the Thompson Group.”

“One day, I will kick them both out, those two bastards!”

11:30 –

Robin shook his head and said, “He was indeed a jerk!”

“Since that’s the case, just take back all of your mother’s belongings.”

Crystal sighed and said. “Of course, I wanted to retrieve all of my mother’s belongings and make these two jerks leave!”

“He stole my mother’s money and even insulted her. Such a person deserves to go to hell!”

Robin shook his head, “What are we waiting for? Just bring it back directly, let them eat shit!”

“Take you? How can I take you when I don’t have any money?” Crystal said helplessly.

“The Thompson Group’s shareholders‘ meeting is now basically dominated by Adrienne and their family relatives, and they are not likely to easily sell those shares!”

“In such a situation, even if I had prepared enough money, it would have been difficult for me to retrieve the inheritance left by my mother.”

“Moreover, I didn’t have that much money in my hands either.”

“How much money do you need?” Robin asked.

Crystal smiled bitterly and said. “Back then, my mother started with 5 million and within a short period of time, she accumulated a business empire worth billions. At that time, she was almost on par with the Huber family.”

“Based on the current size of the Thompson Group, it would probably take nearly 5 billion to fully acquire the Thompson Group back.”

“Such a large sum of money, for me, is just an astronomical figure.”

Robin casually said, “It’s not difficult either. Once you cash in your shares of the Cox Group, you can buy the Brown family’s land in the south of the city and quickly earn enough money.”

Crystal glanced at Robin and said, “Don’t comfort me. The south city plot is just a dump now.”

“I know you still can’t forget Miranda, and you buying the Brown family’s land in the south of the city was to help her. I will support you.”

“Moreover, Miranda has been in a difficult

recently, and she really needs someone, situation within her family

lend her a hand.”

“Anyway, I didn’t need this money, and the Cox Group shares were useless in my hands, so consider it as giving both of you a chance.”

Robin did not continue to explain.

Barry had already been waiting at the intersection ahead.

Robin handed over the Cox Group’s equity to Barry: “Cash out these things before noon today, and then transfer all the Brown family’s several plots of land in the south of the city to Ms. Thompson’s name.”

***

At ten o’clock in the morning, the Huber Group’s signing hall was packed with people.

Hallcester was filled with major media outlets and many investors who came to watch the excitement.

They wanted to witness the grand move of the Huber Group, a major capital, entering the southern area of the city!

The thirty capital merchants holding the land in the south of the city

seemed to be extremely excited as if they had seen a living Buddha.

The enormous stone that was weighing on them could finally be lifted today.

Faced with the Huber Group’s massive acquisition of the South City. plot, they were overjoyed.

Many people on the scene were also puzzled, could it be that the municipal government was going to reinvest in developing the southern part of the city?

Why did the Huber Group suddenly raise hundreds of billions of funds for acquisition?

Although the Huber Group acquired these real estate developers at the cost price they originally purchased, they had no complaints.

At least they did not suffer too much loss.

Now, holding the cheque given to them by the Huber Group, they are overjoyed!

This was purely an unexpected surprise.

Many people had already made plans to celebrate this matter tonight and they would not return until they got drunk!

President’s–office of World Real Estate.

Nathen found the news report about the Huber Group’s acquisition of the South City plot rather suspicious.

“Melvin, have you heard the news about the city government planning to reinvest in developing the small plot of land in the southern part of the city recently?”

Melvin shook his head and said, “Mr. Reynell, I didn’t hear it.”

“Last year, the municipal government had already made it clear that the investment focus would be placed on City East, which is well–known to the people of Hallcester.”

“Although three years ago, there were rumors circulating that the southern city plot might be considered as a key investment project by the municipal government, it never got initiated.”

“For the past three years, no one has mentioned it again, and recently. there has been no such news.”

“All the capital owners holding the land in the southern part of the city have been desperately seeking to sell their projects recently.”

“I suspected that someone was secretly creating a buzz to speculate on and then sell the land in the southern part of the city.”

“You know, those capital merchants who held the land in the southern part of the city have been extremely worried in recent years.”

“The plots that landed in their hands were completely equivalent to garbage, and many people had initially purchased them through loans.”

“Nowadays, various banks have terminated loan contracts in advance. forcing many real estate developers holding land in the southern part of the city to sell at low prices in order to repay their debts.”

Nathen nodded, “Not bad… It’s just strange what the Huber Group did today.

Melvin continued, “According to rumors, yesterday Karina followed Robin’s advice and acquired Glory Edifice from Freddie, which caused quite a stir.”

“Just the reports about these information on the internet platform were

nte 143 Crystal Chien

all deleted and cannot be searched.”

Nathen furrowed his brow, stood up, and walked over to the floor–to- ceiling window, gazing at the dilapidated city block in the distance.

“Hehe, Robin is indeed a character. He actually managed to make Karina lose her mind and buy all the half–developed plots in the southern part of the city.”

“Robin was divorced by the Brown family. After joining the Huber Group, Karina’s style suddenly changed from cautious to bold and decisive?”

“Did Karina, who is brainless, listen to Robin’s advice and purchase the land in the south of the city? Is Harold also foolish?”

“The Huber family’s gamble would have been a disaster if it had failed!”

“This might have been a great opportunity for the Reynell family in Hallcester!”

Thinking of this, Nathen smiled.

“The Reynell family sold the 3 billion square meters of land in the southern part of the city to the Huber Group, taking advantage of this opportunity.”

“The Huber Group wanted to do good deeds, so let them go all the way!”

“Melvin, you went to the Huber Group now.”

“Remember, the South City plot of land cannot be sold for less than 1.5 billion at least. We must recover our costs.”

Melvin immediately arrived at the signing hall of the Huber Group

Lapter 143 Ovital Oner

with the paperwork for the South City plot.

Just when he reported these materials to the Huber Group, Karina refused to sign the contract, even if it was 1.5 billion.

Melvin had no choice but to report this information to Nathen.

For this reason, Nathen was certain that there was no government investment policy inclination towards the southern plot of land in the near future.

If there was such a tendency, even if Karina had dissatisfaction. towards the Reynell family.

Wouldn’t the Huber Group want to take advantage of this kind of cheapness?

A land parcel of 1.5 billion, when acquired, would at least multiply several times.

So, he told Melvin over the phone to take some indirect strategies.

Through other people’s channels, the land in hand was sold to the Huber Group.

No matter what, the land in the southern part of the city must be sold.

Even if the price is lowered further, it is still possible.

Melvin wandered around the signing hall of the Huber Group for quite a while when he saw Robin walking in from a distance.

He got scared and turned his head to run.

Robin called out to him, “Melvin, why do you always try to run away when you see me? What mischief have you done again?”

Melvin hurriedly ran up to Robin and trembled as he said, “Mr. Bruce, he’s not here! I. I just didn’t see you carlier.”

“What do you have in your hand?” Robin glanced at the paperwork for the southern plot that Melvin was holding.

Melvin hurriedly replied, “This, this is the southern plot of land. Mr. Reynell wanted me to come and sell it to the Huber Group. However, Ms. Huber did not accept.”

Robin casually said, “I understand. The Huber family doesn’t want it, sell it to me personally.”
