Chapter 360
Aiden and James were talking among themselves in the waiting lounge. "See? They probably think that we have weird motives!"
"It's normal to have doubts. It would be weird to not have any," James laughed.
"She's afraid of the free money. Joseph really makes me speechless," Aiden shrugged his shoulders.
Inside, Paige and Braelynn discussed for a while and came out again. "Sorry for the wait."
"It's okay. The contract is here. Since Miss Anderson doesn't quite understand it, I'll let Miss Saunders take a look at it," Aiden handed the contract to Braelynn.
Braelynn reached out to take the contract, but he did not immediately let go. He faintly grazed her palm with his fingertips.
Braelynn's face turned as red as a tomato, and the contract fell from her hands. Aiden also let go of his hand and said with a cheeky smile, "What's wrong with you, Miss Saunders? You can't even hold a contract?"
She glared at him angrily. She had just said that Aiden was a good-for-nothing, so this immediately proved it to be true.
He was looking for death for messing with her. However, she had to suppress her anger for Paige today. She would get revenge on him another day.
Liam was sent to the hospital for an emergency operation for his broken arm.
Isabella's beaten face was swollen, so the doctor disinfected and cleaned her up. She and Sophia stood at the door of the operating room, waiting for Liam to come out. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
When there were no outsiders around, Sophia lowered her voice and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with dad?"
"I don't know," Isabella answered with a swollen face. Liam did not tell them that he had sold his own stocks.
They didn't understand why he had suddenly gone mad. It should have been a good thing that the stock values were rising. Liam had so many stocks in hand, so it was also a profit for him.
Even though he could make a profit, he still flew into a rage and hit Isabella. Was there any other reason for his actions?
As Isabella thought about it, her phone rang, and her helper sent her a message.
"Something big happened. Paige persuaded Aiden and James to invest in Anderson Group!"
Isabella felt bad when she saw the news. "Is this true? What will happen to our plan if they invest?"
"I don't know, I don't know if it's just fake news, or it is a real investment. If it's real, then Liam will be out of the game. He has nothing in his hands other than the company's shares."
Isabella also knew that very clearly. "Then what do we do now?"
"I don't have any other good ideas. We can only wait and see. We can't scheme for anything yet, can we? We should at least get the shares from Liam, so we don't waste our efforts."
Isabella put away her phone and thought to herself. Did Liam fly into a rage and faint because of the news of Paige's cooperation with Aiden and James?
However, there was no reason for him to suddenly hit her. Even if Paige cooperated with them, he still had so many shares in his hand. If the company had a good development, it would also be beneficial to
him.
There must be something else she didn't know! She must find a way to figure it out.
In the Acma Corporation, Paisley did not go to the Dawson Group today. When she saw so much negative news about the Anderson Group, she had already expected that Hardy would help Paige, so she followed him closely.
She was afraid that Hardy would use his money to support Paige. Hardy knew exactly what Paisley was thinking. He asked her impatiently, "Why don't you go to the Dawson Group to stare at Joseph instead of me?"
"I'm not going there today. I'm going to watch over you to prevent you from doing anything irrational."
"What's wrong with your head?" He asked, displeased.
"Bro, don't think that I can't see through your mind. Paige is in a tough situation. Are you going to use
your money to support her?"
He nodded. "Yes, I did plan to do that. Anyway, she's already at her lowest. I'm not in a hurry. I'll take action at 2:50 in the afternoon."
"I will not let you support her financially! Is this necessary? If you have the energy to support her financially, you should start a new company instead."
"How is that the same? It's best if you don't meddle in my matters," he was extremely unhappy.
"This is not a small matter. I can't ignore it. Let me tell you, if you like Paige, you can go after her, but why are you using so much money? If you dare to mobilize the funds, I'll call dad immediately."
He was furious when he heard her words.
"You can try to call him! If you dare to make a phone call, I’ll fire you! Go back to the capital and never come back for the rest of your life!"
"How can you do that? I'm doing this for your own good. I'm your younger sister. Am I not comparable to Paige in your heart? What's good about her anyways? She's living with Joseph now. Aren't you disgusted by her impurity?"
"Shut up!" He threw his cup on the floor.
She saw that he was furious and did not dare to speak anymore. Hardy sneered. "I will do what I want to do today."
After that, he grabbed his phone and dialled a number. "Arrange the finance department to immediately prepare 50 billion dollars for me. I need to use it at 2:30!"
Paisley was furious. If she were to complain about it, he would definitely send her away and ban her from B City. She felt uncomfortable bottling her feelings up. Why was Paige leading her brother on while she was hooking up with Joseph?
In the midst of the waiting, Hardy's assistant pushed the door open and came in. "Mr. Anthony, a large number of the Anderson Group' stocks have been bought again. Its value is rising at an increasing rate."
"What?" Hardy turned on the trading software on his computer and could not believe the stock graph he was looking at.
"Who did it with so much money?"
"I don't know, but now James and Aiden have gone to the Anderson Group's company. It caused a lot of commotion, and the mainstream media in B City have also gone to build up the momentum."
"So, Joseph asked James and Aiden for help?" Hardy punched the table. He didn't expect that Joseph would ask James and Aiden for help with such a big problem.
"I was a step too late!"
Paisley, who was sitting next to him, sighed in relief. Hardy rubbed his forehead and said, "In that case, we don't need to prepare the funds anymore. You go and write an investment plan. I'II look for Paige tomorrow."
"Bro, what are you going to do? Don't tell me that you still want to help her?"
He pointed at the door and muttered out two words from his clenched jaw, "F*ck off!"
She saw the hostility in his eyes and did not dare to say a word anymore. She then left the room.
When she was in her car outside, she reached out and rubbed her forehead.
Thinking of her brother's attitude towards her, she became angrier and angrier. "Why would they help Paige?"
"What's good about her? How is she worthy of having Joseph and my brother to stick up for her?"
She had to find a way to alienate Paige and Joseph. When she remembered that Hardy was going to look for her with a business proposal tomorrow, she thought of a good idea.
