Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2861: Chapter 2004: Selfishness and Self-Interest (3)

Caroline frowned at these words and said sternly, ”Mr. Morgan, what do you mean by this! If it weren’t for your arrangements, would I have diverted funds to acquire Golun’s shares? We wouldn’t have been taken advantage of! In the end, we bought Golun’s shares at a high price, while you acquired our market and resources at a low cost, resulting in a huge loss for us! This doesn’t seem fair at all!”

Vice Chairman Morgan also frowned upon hearing this, very displeased, ”What do you mean by that? Are you saying I tricked your family on purpose.”

Caroline remained silent, but her expression suggested that she meant just that.

Vice Chairman Morgan snorted loudly, ”I thought, Caroline, that this time you’re forcing me to owe you a favor, to be grateful to you, to return your original market and losses completely intact, and to even give you a third of Golun International. In that calculation, we are actually at a loss, and you seem to be the ultimate winners! This inevitably makes me suspicious...where did those disruptors come from!”

The attitude of Vice Chairman Morgan clearly implied that the Caroline Family was the real mastermind behind everything.

Caroline’s request was denied, and she was suspected, immediately infuriating her, she slammed the table, ”Mr. Morgan, what do you mean by this! Saying it like that is absolutely senseless!”

This stern shout was heard even by people outside.

Vice Chairman Morgan looked at the angry Caroline with a cold smile. He knew full well that this woman was deeply shrewd; it wasn’t that easy to make her angry.

The scene certainly had an element of performance!

Caroline, however, was genuinely furious, standing her ground as she stared at Vice Chairman Morgan.

Even though for a long time, she relied on this person to secure her position in the group, she had also paid a lot, especially with family interests!

In the end, being treated like this, she felt it was intolerable.

Both sides stood in tense confrontation for over a minute.

Time seemed to freeze, appearing infinitely long.

However, after the outburst, they both gradually calmed down.

As things stand, they both needed each other’s help, which neither could deny.

”Mr. Morgan, I have indeed encountered significant trouble, and I lost my composure earlier.”

Caroline took a deep breath twice, reluctantly lowering her head first.

Vice Chairman Morgan also let out a long breath, speaking slowly, ”Lately, I’ve had a lot on my mind too, and I haven’t controlled my emotions well. Don’t take it to heart, Caroline. As for your company’s issues, I’ll get back to you as soon as possible, ensuring you weather the storm.”

With that, Caroline expressed her gratitude.

The atmosphere relaxed, but neither could sit any longer. After just ten minutes, Caroline got up to leave, and Vice Chairman Morgan nodded in agreement.

After leaving, Caroline sat silently in her car, her face dauntingly grim.

Robert accompanied her cautiously, not daring to utter a word.

In the next two days, things did change. Vice Chairman Morgan’s company indeed began to ”aid” the Caroline Family’s business, but not all the market and resources were returned, about half was left, and they also took funds.

In Vice Chairman Morgan’s view, he had already done quite enough.

But for the Caroline Family, they were still severely weakened.

Caroline’s prestige within the family dropped significantly, and she also harbored resentment towards Vice Chairman Morgan.

Likewise, Vice Chairman Morgan intended to give Caroline some pressure, even pointing his rare critique during a group meeting two days later at the North American region.

Correspondingly, recently, Bai Xiaosheng’s prestige within the group had risen steadily.

This naturally displeased both Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline, and others like Mrs. Margery and Fei’er also felt displeased with Bai Xiaosheng.

Fei’er, who’d ”endured many hardships” to finally reunite with Bai Xiaosheng, was practically acting like a bad-tempered princess, stating explicitly, ”I will never be separated from Bai Xiaosheng and them again.”

To this, Bai Xiaosheng merely smiled indifferently.

If they wish to follow, then let them follow.
