Three Treasures: Spoiled Wife Goes Wild-Chapter 1702: Took the Bait So Quickly
"What am I feeling right now?"
Justin Battleson spoke calmly, "Probably like how you felt when Oliver Battleson finally handed the inheritance rights of the Battleson Group over to me."
Upon hearing this, Charlotte Thompson couldn’t help but inwardly marvel at the devastating impact of Justin Battleson’s words.
Sure enough, Leon Battleson’s smile instantly disappeared. He shot a cold glance at Justin Battleson and then stood up from his chair with the contract in hand.
"Justin Battleson, you remain as irritating as ever. I’ll take the contract. See you tomorrow."
Having said that, Leon Battleson directly headed to the door but deliberately stopped when passing by Charlotte.
"Are you really not planning to come to my side? Anything Justin Battleson can offer you, I can too."
No one expected Leon Battleson’s arrogance to reach such a level.
Seeing the meaningful look in Leon Battleson’s eyes, Charlotte maintained her smile but stepped aside to clear a path for him. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
"Mr. Battleson, take your time, I won’t see you out."
"No problem, I have plenty of time, I can wait for you slowly."
Listening to the detachment in Charlotte’s tone, Leon Battleson wasn’t annoyed; instead, he gave her an even brighter smile.
Finally, his gaze swept over Justin Battleson’s cold face, and in high spirits, he turned and left.
As Leon Battleson’s back gradually disappeared, the smile that Charlotte had been wearing also faded.
At this moment, Justin Battleson reached out and hugged Charlotte from behind, pulling her into his arms.
"Why are you looking at him?"
Saying this, Justin Battleson raised his palm to block Charlotte’s view.
It was rare to see Justin Battleson act so childishly, Charlotte chuckled softly, then reached out to pull down his palm, turning around in his arms to face him.
"By the way, what’s going on with the shareholders?"
Remembering Leon Battleson’s words earlier, Charlotte asked curiously.
"Now that the group’s stocks are falling, it’s only natural that some people want to cut their losses." Justin Battleson said quietly, his fingers brushing across Charlotte’s cheek, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
"Are you talking about Zachary Carter?" Charlotte thought of the words Mr. Carter had said at the previous shareholders’ meeting.
"A lot of people on his side are doing the same, of course." Justin Battleson nodded, confirming Charlotte’s inquiry.
However, Charlotte felt a bit puzzled in her heart, "But given Zachary Carter’s character, he shouldn’t act so quickly. I thought he would wait and see for a while."
"That’s why I quietly gave him a little help from the shadows."
"Could it be that you planted someone by his side?"
But facing Charlotte’s question, Justin Battleson had an odd expression. Tugging at Charlotte’s cheek, Justin Battison’s brow twitched slightly.
"The way you say it makes it sound like Zachary Carter is the CEO of the group. But you’re right. Originally, Zachary Carter was a bit hesitant, so I had someone persuade him a bit. Unexpectedly, he bit the hook so quickly."
"But isn’t it a problem that most of the company’s shares have ended up in Leon Battleson’s hands?"
Leon Battleson’s acquisition of the subsidiary was something Charlotte knew well, and the fact that company shares would fall into his hands was also expected.
But now, Leon Battleson had acquired many of the company shares that were sold off by the shareholders. The massive number of shares he currently held made Charlotte a bit worried.
