Limited Time Marriage: Nice to Meet You Mr. Foster-Chapter 56 - 55: When the Snipe and the Clam Fight, the Fisherman Profits
Watching Nathan Foster drive away, South Grant turned to head back.
At that moment, Chester Lynch called out to her, causing South Grant to stop and look at him.
"You..." Chester Lynch had questions in his heart, but didn’t know how to voice them. In the end, he only said, "I’m glad you’re okay."
After speaking, Chester Lynch found himself at a loss for words, unsure of what else to say.
"Then you should go back, I need to return home as well," South Grant said before turning around to enter the grand gates of the Grant Family mansion.
Chester Lynch watched South Grant walk inside, his gaze involuntarily falling between her legs.
She was wearing a pair of pants, but not the same pair as yesterday.
The pants were clean, with no sign of anything.
Chester Lynch fell into deep thought.
What exactly was the matter with the blood from yesterday?
Seeing South Grant already inside the house, Chester Lynch returned to his car.
He was determined to get to the bottom of this matter.
South Grant only relaxed after Chester Lynch had left.
Last night, when she got her period, Chester Lynch had seen it, and she said she was injured, but clearly Chester was half convinced.
One day, she would let everyone know about her true identity.
But now was not the right time.
After South Grant entered the main hall, Jared Grant was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper.
Nowadays, Jared Grant no longer cared about the assets under the Grant Group.
Twenty years ago, due to Jared Grant’s poor strategies, the business began to decline.
Eighteen years ago, after a financial disruption, the Grant Group officially declared bankruptcy.
At that time, the Grant Group had made a name for itself throughout Aethelgard, venturing into many fields.
When Jared Grant’s company announced its bankruptcy, Ian Grant returned from abroad with his wife and took over everything of the Grant Group.
Ian Grant made decisive decisions, withdrawing from many sectors, investing all the raised funds into the entertainment field at Stellaris Corporation.
Afterwards, they stirred a frenzy in the entertainment industry, establishing the Grant Family’s position in the agency business.
Since then, Jared Grant ceased to involve himself with the Grant Family’s assets, and Ian Grant took over all shares.
Although Jared Grant remained the Grant Family’s patriarch, he held only ten percent of the shares.
After Ian Grant’s death, the 50% of the shares Ian held. A portion was wrested away by the second family member, Miles Grant.
Shawn Grant also took a share, leaving only 15% in South Grant’s hands.
Even with only 15%, South Grant couldn’t access it.
Because when South Grant was young, Miles Grant held a shareholders’ meeting to decide that South would only have the right to use these 15% shares upon reaching adulthood.
Jared Grant usually spent time with newspapers and gardening, sometimes going out to practice Tai Chi, already in a state of retirement.
The reason the two Grant brothers obeyed Jared Grant was because of his ten percent sharehold.
Miles Grant and Shawn Grant appeared calm because Shawn Grant’s current shares couldn’t rival Miles Grant’s.
So he obediently listened to Miles Grant, hoping he could inherit Jared Grant’s ten percent share to overpower Miles Grant and become the head of the Grant Family.
For now, the Grant Family was at peace, albeit potentially superficial peace.
What South Grant needed to do was just as Nathan Foster had said.
She needed to stir up these tranquil waters.
When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits.
The winning strategy is to show weakness; knowing when to appear weak is key to survival.
