Lacey rejected it over and over again. She was unwilling to take over the position as the chairperson of the board.

Everyone did not know how to respond to the scene before them.

The chairperson of the board of directors of Redwood Capital was everyone's dream position. Yet, one of them was

crying and begging to give it away, while the other party was unfazed and voiced her rejection repeatedly.

The scene could not be more comical to them.

They so badly wanted to switch their identities with Lacey.

Meanwhile, Lenard was losing his patience when he saw how Lacey was so firm with her decision.

Finally, he pulled out his final trick.

“Okay, Ms. Hinton. What about this? You can reject the position of becoming the chairperson of the board, but you

have to accept this request of mine.”

Lacey asked warily, “What is it?”

“You see, Redwood Capital may look glorious on the outside, but the truth is, there are storms brewing on the inside

that are causing many internal damages. Technically, the value of the company is not as great as it looks. We,

Redwood Capital, have done some research and have decided to transfer fifty-one percent of our shares to Linton

Group. That means Redwood Capital will anchor itself to Linton Group. We'll be wholly owned by Linton Group.”

Suddenly, the crowd, including Daisy, burst into laughter.

Lenard is totally making fun of Linton Group. But he must've been holding himself back from revealing his true

intentions of humiliating Linton Group. Even a fool knows his intentions by just listening to him.

Everyone knew Linton Group was about to go bankrupt. Not only did they not have the money to purchase

Redwood Capital's shares, but they also had a huge debt.

Even if they were at the peak of their business, they still had to consider carefully if they had the capital to

purchase Redwood Capital's shares.

Now that Linton Group was left with nothing, there was no way they could purchase the shares.

Daisy laughed so hard that tears trickled down her face. “I'm sorry, Mr. Wayne. I misunderstood you earlier. I didn't

know you were standing up for me.”

Lenard snapped, “Shut up. No one's standing up for you.”

Daisy smiled but said nothing. Wow! I never expected Lenard to be so good at acting.

At that moment, Lacey, too, believed Lenard was making fun of her.

She said in a huff, “Mr. Wayne, we don't have any grudges against each other. Why do you have to make things

difficult for Linton Group?”

Lenard explained hurriedly, “Ms. Hinton, you've misunderstood my words. Really. I don't mean to make things

difficult for you and Linton Group.”

“Mr. Wayne, do you really need me to spell things out? You're from the business world as well. Everyone in the

industry knows Linton Group is on the verge of collapsing. We have a huge debt. How could we possibly fork out

money to buy more than half of Redwood Capital's shares?”

Suddenly, Lenard smacked his head as if he had just remembered something. “Ah! I've got such a terrible memory.

I can't believe I forgot about such an important thing.” He took out an agreement and handed it to Lacey. “Ms.

Hinton, this is the agreement for the purchase of shares. Please have a look before deciding if you want to accept

it.”

Daisy smiled. “Your acting skills are superb, Mr. Wayne. You're so detailed to the point of preparing an agreement.”

Lenard was exasperated. What on earth? Since when am I putting on an act? Everything I said is true, you idiot! I'm

going to tear you into pieces and feed you to the dogs if you keep spouting nonsense.

Lacey had no intention of browsing through the document. However, Zeke said, “Lacey, perhaps you should take a

look. The fact that they've prepared an agreement shows how sincere they are.”

Lacey glanced at Zeke in confusion.

She sensed something odd about his words.

What does Zeke mean? He seems to be hinting at something. This agreement is fishy.

After thinking it through, Lacey took the agreement and went through it meticulously.
