I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 309
On Saturday, David finally saw the message Celia had sent him the previous night.
After some consideration, David sent Celia a reply to go on a date since he was rather free these days.
Naturally, Celia was elated when she saw the message and almost jumped up in happiness.
After asking Celia those questions that morning, Jon and Mindy had both quickly left the house.
With that, the younger couple agreed to meet in the largest forest park in Capital City.
Then, Celia brought David around to play.
The sun was scorching but it did not hinder Celia’s steadfast pace at all as she walked around the park over and over again with David.
She made sure to pick spots that did not have many other people as well since she liked the feeling of spending time with David alone.
While it might seem like Celia was bringing David around, the truth was that David was spending time with Celia as the latter did the things that she liked.
Just like that, the two of them spent the whole day at the park.
Celia was reluctant when they had to part ways in the evening, and she asked if David would bring her out again the next day.
However, David quickly said that he was busy tomorrow and offered to meet again another day.
It was not that he was unwilling to go on a date, but rather because he did not want to exhaust Celia.
He himself was fine since his body was now stronger than an ordinary person’s. He could go out every day and he would not feel tired at all.
The same could not be said for Celia, though.
While Celia was energetic, he did not know if her body could endure going out every day in the hot sun. He did not want her to get heatstroke.
In the end, David had no choice but to promise to bring her out again when the weather got better.
Meanwhile, Jon and Mindy spent the whole day dealing with the company. They were trying to sell their shares as quickly as possible and then bring Celia and David away from Capital City.
Now that they had made an enemy of the Chasez family, the Youngs had no footing left in Capital City.
However, things were much more complicated than they expected.
Despite being the largest shareholder of her company, Mindy only held 46% of the company’s shares. The other investors held the remaining 54%.
The retail investors had also signed agreements to transfer ownership of their shares and sold them to the Chasez family at the lowest price.
They had no other choice. The Chasez family was targeting the Beautylish Group, and their shares would only lose value if they continued to hold it. Moreover, keeping their shares would also make them an enemy of the Chasez family.
In other words, this meant that the Chasez family currently owned more shares than Mindy did, and was now the largest shareholder in the Beautylish Group.
Mindy had no one to sell her shares to since no one dared to buy from her.
There was no point in keeping the shares either, as various products of the Beautylish Group were currently under fire. Not only did they fail the tests, but a large number of product users had also come to ask for compensation and sue the group, claiming that the Beautylish Group’s products had resulted in various ailments.
This was all because of the Chasez family’s influence. In the blink of an eye, Mindy’s Beautylish Group, which she had fought tooth and nail to establish for more than half of her life was now facing bankruptcy.
Mindy and her husband could do nothing.
They did not expect the Chasez family to move so quickly and cruelly.
Not only could they not get a dollar back from their shares, but they were also faced with the risk of falling into a huge debt.
In a day, a company worth billions of dollars was about to go bankrupt, eventually being forced to close down hundreds of branches.
