Chapter 630 -630: Girl’s Thoughts_1
In the room.
Doris Locke sat on the bed, stunned by the words Theressa Locke said before she left.
She didn’t know if she really wanted to marry Greg Jensen, but she didn’t want to tie her feelings to the familial interests.
She was aware Greg had many women, but she couldn’t help thinking of his handsome face and those deeply affecting, amorous whispers every midnight.
At this moment, her heart was filled with struggle.
On one hand, she didn’t want Greg to think that she was with him for the sake of the family’s interests.
On the other hand, she feared that missing this chance would mean drifting further apart from Greg.
After who knows how long, a determined expression appeared on her soft and beautiful face, followed by her starting to wash up, put on makeup, and change into her best-looking clothes.
Once ready, she called the driver and headed straight to East Peak Manor.
Before leaving, she sent a text message to her father’s cell phone with three words: I’m going.
More than an hour later, the car arrived at East Peak Manor.
Doris Locke got out of the car, hesitating as she walked into the villa. She was about to let someone know she was there but suddenly froze.
She saw Theressa sitting on the couch in the living room, chatting and laughing with Greg.
At this moment, Greg didn’t have the domineering air of a Law Practitioner; he was like the big brother next door, gentle and sunny.
“Doris, what brings you here?”
When Theressa saw her sister, a hint of unease flashed across her face, then she smiled and waved, “Come and have a seat.”
“Okay.”
Doris hesitated for a moment, then sat next to Theressa. She smiled awkwardly, saying, “Master Barry, hello.”
Greg smiled and said, “No need to be so formal. Just like Theressa, you can call me Brother Greg.”
“Brother… Brother Greg.”
“Mm, take a seat.”
Doris nodded and carefully sat down beside her brother.
Greg smiled, looked at Doris and then at Theressa, and said, “You two came here for the Locke family’s business, didn’t you?”
A bitter expression surfaced on Theressa’s face. She nodded slightly and said, “Yes, that’s what I had in mind.”
Hearing her brother’s words, Doris looked towards Greg full of anticipation. She thought Greg, being such a nice person, would surely agree.
However, Greg just shook his head and calmly said, “Sorry, I can’t agree to that.”
Doris was taken aback and turned to look at her brother.
As soon as Theressa heard Greg’s words, he became anxious, “Brother Greg, I…”
Greg waved his hand, signaling him not to rush and continued, “You know what the Locke family has done; I don’t need to go into details.
If I don’t teach a lesson today, what about the other families that do the same?”
Hearing this, the Locke siblings were at a loss for words.

Greg sighed and said, “How about this? For your Locke family’s share, establish a separate group, which you will be fully responsible for.
I’ll take only thirty percent of the shares, the rest, seventy percent, will be yours, but I want all the voting rights.”
“This… Isn’t that a bit too much?”
The words shocked Theressa, for by these terms, the Locke family would have far less than other families.
“We’re friends, aren’t we?”
Greg laughed and shook his head, “When Walter Locke came, didn’t you also stand up for me?”
“But…”
“There are no buts, just accept it if I’m giving it to you.”
Greg waved his hand, “Don’t be resentful about the voting rights; that is something I truly cannot relinquish.”
“It’s all right, this is already very good.”
Theresa Locke’s heart was filled with joy. Before she came, she knew that Greg Jensen would surely consider her face and try to minimize the Locke family’s losses as much as possible.
But she hadn’t expected Greg to give her so much face, the degree of which was so substantial.
This friend was worth making!
As for the so-called voting rights, she didn’t care at all. It was already nice to get the profits.
To ask for more would be somewhat ungracious.
“All right, now that we’ve finished talking business, let’s eat together. I’ve already had the kitchen prepare everything.”
“Sure, today I’ll have a good drink with Brother Greg.”
The chefs at East Peak Manor were specially hired from hotels, so naturally, their skills were unquestionable.
The dishes were full of color, aroma, and flavor, and there were many personal signature dishes as well.
During the meal, Thomas Lampe and others also arrived and joined Theresa Locke and Greg Jensen in drinks and conversation.
Barry Wolfe, who had made such a formidable reputation for himself, showed no airs at all at the dining table. His calm and composed demeanor caught Doris Locke’s attention repeatedly.
After a satisfying meal, Theresa declined the offer to stay the night and got up to leave with her sister.
In a matter of hours, Theresa had managed to settle the matter, feeling quite pleased with herself. Once in the car, she planned to close her eyes and rest.
However, Doris’s mood was clearly less cheerful. She coldly looked at her brother and chided:
“Brother Greg invited you to stay the night, why did you refuse?”
Theresa opened her eyes in confusion and said, “We’re not far from our hotel, why stay over here?”
Doris’s face turned slightly red, not sure what to say. She certainly couldn’t tell her brother that she wanted to sleep with Greg, could she?
After a moment of silence, she snorted, “Brother Greg gave you so much face and even personally accompanied you to drink. How could you not return the favor?”
Theresa laughed and waved his hand, “My relationship with Brother Greg isn’t about that.
Besides, don’t we need to hurry up and share the good news with Dad?”
“Hmph, I don’t want to talk to you!”
Doris glared at him, then turned away, no longer speaking.
Theresa was clueless, not understanding why his sister was angry. After hesitating for a moment, he tried to appease her:
“Okay, if you want to have fun at East Peak Manor, I’ll take you there to stay for a few days tomorrow, all right?”
“Really?”
“Of course, when have I ever lied to you?”
“That’s more like it.”
Upon hearing that her brother would take her to East Peak Manor to stay for a few days, Doris’s expression finally softened, and her face took on an ambiguous smile.
Theresa was stunned for a moment, still unable to wholly grasp the situation.
The siblings returned to the hotel and repeated the matter of establishing a separate group company.
Theresa had thought their father would break into delighted laughter, but after he finished speaking, Noah Locke’s face was still clouded with gloom.
“Dad, it’s impossible not to lose a penny, but isn’t it good to make up for it in such a way?” Theresa didn’t understand.
“Good my foot!”
Noah Locke, frustrated that his child didn’t meet his expectations, angrily said, “Have you ever thought about it? With the voting rights in Barry’s hands, couldn’t he just take back the group at any time?”
Theresa hurriedly said, “Dad, Brother Greg isn’t that kind of person.”
“Humph, not that kind of person?”
Noah Locke scoffed, “Wait until that kid actually takes the group back, then you’ll have nowhere to cry!”
Theresa was also getting a bit angry and replied with a stern face, “Dad, it was our Locke family who were in the wrong in the first place. Brother Greg willing to be so magnanimous is already rare, what more do you want?”
