Chapter 910
After getting into the car, Rachel pulled out her phone and called Tyler, but he didnโt answer. A bad feeling rose in her chest.
She urged the driver, โPlease drive faster. Itโs an emergency.โ
The car sped down the highway and finally arrived at Dingham Corporation.
Rachel pushed the car door open and rushed into the building, heading straight to a meeting room on the 18th floor. The moment she arrived at the door, she heard Mr. Jonesโ voice from inside.
โMr. Hunt, this is the shares transfer agreement. Sign it, and the money will be transferred to your account tomorrow.โ
Rachelโs heart clenched as she pushed the door open. โDonโt sign it!โ
Tylerโs hand froze in midair when he heard Rachelโs voice. He turned to the door, and surprise filled his deep, dark eyes.
โWhat are you doing here?โ
โYouโd have sold your company if Iโd come a second later!โ Rachel walked quickly to him, panting hard. โDidnโt we agree to discuss things before making any decision? Why did you sell your subsidiary company behind my back? The subsidiary companyโs operations are closely tied to LS Enterprise. They are interdependent! Iโm sure you know the risk of losing the subsidiary company.โ
โWe can always start a new subsidiary company. Iโll be left with nothing if anything happens to you.โ
Tyler caressed Rachelโs head as he spoke, without a tinge of regret over the loss of his subsidiary company. He knew clearly what was more important to him.
โIโve raised a sum of two hundred million dollars. Donโt worry. Once we sign this, the money will be transferred to my account. You wonโt be sued.โ
Rachel grabbed his arm. โI can solve my own problems! Iโd rather go to jail than see you sell your company!โ
Just then, someone opened the door to the meeting room.
An old man donning a black suit and gold-rimmed glasses walked in with a folder in hand. He approached Tyler and said with a bow, โItโs been a while, sir.โ
โJeeves?โ Tyler asked, arching his brow. โWhat are you doing here?โ
Jeeves smiled before extending the folder toward him. โYour father wants me to pass you this.โ
Jeeves handed Tyler a check.
โWhatโs the meaning of this?โ Tyler asked, surprised.
โMr. Lewis is in hospital, but it doesnโt mean he knows nothing. Ms. Lloyd has to compensate her previous company a total of two hundred million dollars for transferring four projects to your company to make up for the losses it was making. When Mr. Lewis found out about it, he was in awe of her boldness and decided to cover the compensation amount for her. You donโt need to do so.โ
Rachel looked at the check in disbelief. โAre you serious? Heโฆโ
โAbsolutely,โ Jeeves said with a nod. โMr. Lewis made it clear that youโre a member of the Lewis family, especially with that family heirloom on your hand. Why would he leave a family member in the lurch?โ
Rachel and Tyler exchanged glances, not expecting to be rescued from their desperate situation this way.
She was ready to bear full responsibility for the damages done and didnโt expect Thomas Lewis to be willing to fork out the money for her.
Rachelโs gaze landed on the acquisition agreement. She immediately snatched it.
โApologies, Mr. Jones, but weโre not selling the company anymore.โ
When Rachel and Tyler walked out of Dingham Corporationโs office building, Rachel thought even the air smelled sweeter.
With the check in hand, she immediately gave Hannah a call.
Hannah thought Rachel was calling to plead for mercy because she was unable to raise the funds.
โWell, well, well, Rachel. You couldnโt raise the funds, right? If you really canโt, just tell me. You can kneel and beg me, and I might give you a few more days,โ Hannah gloated.
