Chapter 308
In the Central South Building, Kyrie, the assistant with gauze on his eyes, took a contract and pushed the door open in a hurry.
"Mr. Anderson, the contract is ready. Please have a look at it."
Liam took the contract and read it carefully with a smug smile on his face. "Good! That's good! Print two copies of this contract and let me sign them!"
Kyrie agreed and was about to walk out when Liam called out to him again, "You're fully in charge of this matter, so make sure that no information is leaked out. Do you understand?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Anderson. I've been with you for so long, so I know the rules!" Kyrie took the hint.
Liam narrowed his eyes and laughed coldly as he watched Kyrie leave to print the contract. This was the consensus he had reached with Hayden at the secret meeting last night.
He would transfer all of the Anderson Group's assets to Hayden. In return, Hayden would give him ten billion dollars.
Anderson Group would no longer exist in two days once the contract had been signed. By then, he would have set up his own company at B City.
When the time came, Paige would have a huge debt to pay off. When she realised that they owed the debt to the Dawson family, she would hate them to the core, and hate Joseph at the same time, too.
His plan with Hayden was like killing three birds with one stone. Not only did it solve his problems, but it
also separated Paige and Joseph. It could also make Natalie's company disappear from B City.
Natalie would definitely jump out of the grave in anger if she knew that her company had been closed down and her daughter was in grave debt.
Liam thought to himself happily as the door of his office was pushed open before Sophia came in.
She asked Liam nervously after she had closed the door, "Dad, how's the preparation for the new company going?"
"It's almost ready! I didn't ask much about the details either," Liam replied vaguely.
"It's almost ready? I've just asked the person who is in charge of approving our license, and they said that the business management department has dismissed our request."
"Really? How do I not know about this?" Liam put on an act.
"Dad, this is a serious issue. How can you not know? You have to urge them to speed up their progress. Otherwise, it would be difficult for us to transfer the assets once Paige finds out about our plans."
Liam sneered at Sophia's nervous expression. He never trusted people easily. He had always been careful when it came to his own assets. Isabella and Sophia had tried their best to persuade him to register a new company and transfer his assets, and he had agreed with them on impulse. However, he felt that it was inappropriate even though he had registered the new company under their names.
This was because the transferred assets would belong to Isabella and Sophia as the new company was registered under their names. What should he do if Isabella and Sophia decided to cut ties with him after that?
Paige was silly and easy to fool, but Sophia and Isabella were not.
She was still trying to please him now, but what if she accidentally revealed her bad intentions to him one day?
Therefore, having the company under his name would be the best choice. Liam immediately came up with another idea once the approval for the new company's license had been denied.
A hint of coldness flashed in Liam's eyes after seeing how anxious Sophia was towards his new company. Her impatience disgusted him as she was only an illegitimate daughter.
Could it be that she and Isabella had bad intentions?
He had doubts in his heart, and his tone became more and more indifferent. "I'm not in a hurry, so why are you rushing?"
Sophia forced a smile after looking at the strange expression on Liam's face, "I am Just worried about our family... After all, this matter involves the happiness of our family."
"I know what to do. You don't have to worry about anything, just make sure pay more attention to your mother's health."
Sophia left sulkily as Liam was brushing her off.
She closed the door once she had returned to her office before calling Isabella, "Mom, I don't know what dad is doing. The new company's registration was rejected, but he was not worried at all."
"Really? He won't go back on his words, will he?" Isabella guessed.
"I hope now? He might really go back on his words because of how unpredictable he is. Our plan will be in vain if he does so, right?" Sophia replied bitterly.
"This problem can't be rushed. Let's take it one step at a time, stop being so urgent about it because we still have a long way to go. Your father is vicious, and the consequences would be terrible if he finds out that we have the same thoughts as him." Isabella reminded Sophia, "You'd better hide your true intentions from him, you understand?"
Paige thought that she would feel relieved after meeting Lucian. However, she felt worse instead.
She knew very well that Lucian was telling the truth. Liam had the absolute power to do whatever he wanted as the current chairman of the company.
Could it be that the only thing she could do was to watch him as he emptied the company?
It would be fine if she didn't know about it, but she had to stop it now that she knew about his plans.
Should she steal the company's seal, or knock out Liam to make him unconscious?
Or she could kidnap him for a while and release him only after she had a plan?
Countless thoughts flashed through her mind at this moment. The company's seal was guarded carefully in Liam's office. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Would she even have a chance to get it?
Liam used the seal every day. Therefore, even if she managed to steal it, Liam would be alert once he realized it was missing.
As for knocking him out, it was unlikely for that to succeed. All the employees in the company were Liam's people, and everyone would know immediately if something happened to him.
Additionally, kidnapping Liam would be illegal, thus she would be in serious trouble if she was found out. Other than that, the timing was so urgent and she did not have connections, so she did not know who to look for to help out with the kidnapping.
Paige leaned on the car anxiously and thought of many plans, but none of them could be carried out realistically.
She was so upset that she took out her mobile phone.
She was about to call Abbie for help when she suddenly saw a piece of news that in her notifications.
A large and bolded title popped out on her screen: "An unexpected disaster! A scammer, who pretended to represent a company, wrote an official record to carry out a fraud. The company that had been scammed would be suing the fake family, and the latter's assets would all be frozen."
A thought struck Paige when she read the news. Liam wanted to transfer out Anderson Group's assets and sign the contract, so she would get the court to freeze the company's assets to prevent him from carrying out his plans.
She picked up her phone and called Abbie, "Abbie, huge emergency! I need your help!"
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Get your brother to sign a fake contract for me, I plan to send it to court so I can freeze the assets of Anderson Group!"
"What are you trying to do?" Abbie was baffled.
"I think my father is planning to transfer the company's assets under his name. Therefore, I have to freeze all the assets before he can move them. He won't be able to do anything by then, and I'll have extra time to make plans."
Abbie didn't understand what Paige was trying to say tell her, but she replied, "Forget it, I'll tell my brother directly.”
