Everyone pricked up their ears to listen when they heard those words. What does this mean? Is he going to surrender his power? Eugene was also slightly surprised. Didn’t Grandpa already make a will? What’s going on here? Were his shares to be divided in advance?
He looked suspiciously at Merlin, who said. calmly, “I decided to give 10% of my shares to Olivia Maxwell and the other 15% to North Maxwell. Eugene will keep the shares for them for the time being, and give it to the child when he becomes an adult!”
As soon as he said this, the whole conference room gasped-he actually gave it to Olivia! Isn’t she just President Nolan’s girlfriend? Does Master Merlin really like her that much?
Olivia was also shocked as she hurriedly stood up and protested, “Grandpa, this can’t be done. North and I can’t have it!” Merlin raised his hand and motioned for her to sit down. “Don’t refuse this. You deserve it!”
Edward also looked at the old man in surprise. Is he crazy? Why is he giving out 10% of his shares to Olivia Maxwell? And the fact that he only had 10%! Although he was full of doubts, he didn’t say anything.
On the contrary, Lara was furious. If Merlin had released these shares earlier, things would not have reached the point where it was today. So, it meant that he was trying to hammer her down before beginning to distribute his shares.
Even if she deserved this, there was no chance for her to obtain the shares. However, Penny is always the child of the Nolan Family, right? Yet, Penny never received anything either..
Thinking of that, Lara sneered. “She’s a woman who can go to bed with a beggar and even had an illegitimate child with him. Even if your grandson is fond of the child, he is not of your family and yet, you still gave your shares to these outsiders-old man, have you gone senile?”
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Lara in surprise. How can she say that? Although she usually used strong words whenever she spoke, she was still always polite when talking to Merlin. She was now reprimanding him?!
Did she not want to pretend at all at this point? Eugene’s eyes narrowed fiercely and he instructed the bodyguard, “Get her!” The bodyguard immediately responded and walked toward Lara in a few steps. A short while later, there was only the sound of a slap in the face echoing in the huge. conference room.
It was just that Lara didn’t stop after being beaten and she continued, ‘It’s useless even if you beat me to death. You won’t give your shares to someone that belongs to the Nolan Family, but you’ll give them to such a disgusting. woman! You threatened the old man to do this, didn’t you? Well? Is everyone in the Nolan Family just going to watch and do nothing? Think about how many shares you have in your own hands.”
The more she shouted, the harder the bodyguard attacked her. After about ten minutes, her voice finally disappeared-she was in too much pain.
Eugene raised his hand and signaled the bodyguard to stop. He looked at Lara, who was. slumped on the ground. ‘Do you know what it means to court disaster with your words this time?”
Lara held her red, swollen face in her hands as she cried out in pain, “Eugene Nolan, you are disgusting. You still treasure a woman who has slept with a beggar!” A storm quickly gathered in Eugene’s eyes, and he instructed the bodyguard, “Go on! Continue!”
It was another ten-minute beating under the watchful eyes of all the people there, but no one in the entire conference room dared to make a sound. The Nolan Group had already sued several keyboard warriors who spoke nonsense.
That being so, Lara was courageous to have spoken this way. She dared to speak ill about someone else’s girlfriend in front of others. Was she not courting death? Lara, who made a ruckus at the beginning, was now thrown to the floor and she did not say another word. She could only breathe weakly.
Only then did Eugene withdraw his gaze indifferently. “In the future, whoever dares to speak nonsense like her, this is what’s going to happen to them!”
