Chapter 154 - 154: A Cowardly Boyfriend
“You will settle that?” Freya looked at Connor and sneered. Then, she said disdainfully, “Do you know how much compensation 1 have to pay if they all want to withdraw their shares?”
“No!” Connor lightly shook his head.
“I need to compensate nearly thirty million dollars. Can you afford that? Tell me, where are you going to get so much money?” Freya pointed at Connor and asked coldly.
“I… i will get it!” Connor gritted his teeth.
“Why don’t you tell me? Do you plan to earn this thirty million as a waiter at a bar, or do you plan to earn this thirty million by delivering food?” Freya was extremely agitated at this moment and was shouting at Connor without any mercy.
“Hahaha!” When everyone heard Freya’s words, they all started laughing.
No one had expected that Freya’s fiance was not only a poor loser who delivered food but also a bar waiter.
Such a poor loser claimed he could take out thirty million dollars for the compensation fees. This was simply a big joke.
“Connor, don’t embarrass me here. Please go out now, or I’ll call security!” Freya heard the mocking laughter of the crowd, and her emotions seemed to have eased up a lot. She spoke coldly to Connor.
Connor looked at Freya and said nothing.
“What are you waiting for? Didn’t you hear me asking you to get out?” Freya saw that Connor was still standing there in a daze and shouted.
Connor only had one thought: to get Thomas to bring thirty million in cash over and give everyone a hard slap in the face.
However, Connor knew he couldn’t do that because he and Freya weren’t married yet. If he asked Thomas to come over at this time, it would be equivalent to exposing his identity.
“I can help you find an investor. Not only can he invest in your company, but he can also allow your company to return to normal operations. As for the compensation fee, he can also help you pay it,” Connor said softly, looking at Freya.
“You can find an investor? He can even help me pay for the compensation fees?”
Freya shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly. “Connor, 1 beg you, can you stop joking with me? Not to mention whether he can invest in my company, he won’t help me pay the compensation fee. Who do you think you are?”
“I can call him over now!” Connor said softly.
“You can ask him to come over now?” Freya could not help but be stunned when she heard that. She looked at Connor, surprised.
At this moment, Freya could feel that Connor was not joking with her.
“That’s right. I can get that investor to come over now and get him to invest in your company. Moreover, the amount of money invested will be more than that of Mr. Shenaur Jr’s…” Connor said confidently to Freya.
“Connor, can you stop bragging now? Go do what you have to do!” Freya rubbed her temples and shouted at Connor helplessly.
“I’m not bragging…”
“Freya, why don’t you let this kid make the call? I want to see if he can find someone to invest in your company today. If he can really find an investor today, we will consider not withdrawing our shares!” the middle-aged man suddenly suggested to Freya.
“If you want to withdraw, please do so. If you don’t want to withdraw, you can also do that,” Connor looked at the middle-aged man and sneered. Then, he said in an extremely domineering tone, “Everyone who said that they want to withdraw their shares just now must leave this company today!”
Connor felt that even if these people did not withdraw their shares, they would all be a scourge if they stayed, so it was better to chase them all out.
By then, he would get Thomas to come over and buy the shares of these people. Then, he would let Freya manage the company alone. Anyway, Connor had plenty of money now. Even 300 million would be nothing to him, let alone thirty million.
When everyone heard Connor’s claim, they were stunned.
No one expected Connor to be so stubborn and want to drive all the shareholders out of the company.
“Kid, stop bragging here. We’ll talk when you can find an investor!” the middle-aged man said to Connor coldly.
“I’ll make the call now!” Connor glanced at Freya indifferently, then took his phone and was prepared to leave the meeting room.
Freya looked at Connor speechlessly. She was very puzzled. She did not know if Connor was joking with her or if he was serious.
As Connor couldn’t expose his identity now, he was going to find a quiet place to call Thomas and ask him to come over and deal with today’s matter.
However, before Connor could leave the conference room, a young man in an Armani shirt swaggered in.
Connor looked up at the young man and realized that he was none other than the rich kid, Mr. Shenaur Jr., who had confessed to Freya at the bar last night.
“Mr. Shenaur Jr.!”
“Mr. Shenaur Jr.!”
When everyone saw Mr. Shenaur Jr., they all stood up and greeted him flatteringly.
It was obvious that these people had colluded with Mr. Shenaur Jr. in advance. Otherwise, they would not have acted like this.
“Freya, what happened? Your office is quite lively today!” Mr. Shenaur Jr. walked up to Freya and said to her with a smile.
“Cody, drop the act!” Freya replied calmly.
“Act? What act?”
“Haven’t you planned everything today? You knew that my company has financial problems and doesn’t have the money to pay the shareholders’ compensation fees, so you got them to threaten me with the excuse of withdrawing their shares. You want to force me into a desperate situation and then agree to be with you, right?” Freya turned her head to look at Cody and snarled.
“Haha…” Cody did not expect Freya to have already guessed this, so he stopped pretending and said with a smile, “Freya, I didn’t expect you to be so smart. You’re right. I planned this all, but I was forced to do so!”
“How are you forced to do this?” Freya couldn’t help but sneer.
“Am I not doing all these just to be with you? If you have dumped your fiance and agreed to be with me, wouldn’t it have been easier?” Cody asked Freya teasingly.
Freya looked at Cody and did not say anything.
“If you put it that way, I’ll be straightforward with you. You have two paths now. You can either be with me and I’ll continue to invest in your company, or you can be with your fiance. However, all the shareholders of your company will withdraw their shares and your company will face bankruptcy.” Cody sat cross-legged on the chair and said to Freya nonchalantly.
“Cody, you’re really despicable! I will never be with someone like you in my life. Just give up!” Freya growled.
“Hah, 1 didn’t expect you to be so loyal. In that case, just wait for your company to go bankrupt!” Cody replied lightly and then continued, “I wonder where your fiance is. His fiancee’s company is about to close down, but he still hasn’t come out to solve the problem. Why didn’t you choose a boyfriend properly when you were looking for one? If you have such a useless boyfriend, can he give you happiness in the future?”
“Mr. Shenaur Jr., you have no idea, do you? Her fiance is standing behind you right now!”
The middle-aged man who had been making things difficult for Freya chuckled..
