"What's the solution?"
Ashley pressed her hand and gently soothed her, finally taking the phone out of her hand and setting it aside.
"While the Freeman group is not in full crisis, sell your shares at a high price!"
"How can that be!?"
Fiona's eyes widened, "I can't sell my shares! I'm still counting on them for my retirement, and if I sell them, I won't have a voice in the Freeman group! Absolutely not!"
Ashley sighed and continued to reassure her, "You are confused. If the Freeman group really can't survive this crisis, your shares will be wasted in your hands, and you can rest assured that the sale of shares is only temporary!"
Fiona wavered a little.
"Temporary?"
Ashley saw her fall into the trap and continued, "I will try to find a reliable buyer abroad, and when we get this money, we will be able to earn back after all the projects at hand are completed.And by then the shares can be bought back again."
"Consider it a temporary deposit with the buyer. When this crisis passes and my cousin comes back, he will surely be happy to see that you have the company in order."
Fiona did not speak and fell into a long time meditation.
Ashley wanted to follow up, "Fiona ..."
Fiona raised her hand and interrupted, "Ashley, this is not a small matter. Allow me to think again."
Ashley was a little upset, but didn't say anything else. If she persuaded too much, it would be easily detected.
"Okay Fiona, but don't think too much. This can't be delayed."
She finished and turned to leave.
Fiona sat alone in her office, feeling for the first time the tremendous pressure that came with this position.
This choice can be said to have cost her half her life ...
Whether it was the company or the shares, she didn't want to give them up.
But Ashley was right. To the company, the only way left was to sell shares. But if she chose to keep her shares, once the company went bankruptcy, shares meant nothing.
She sat quietly for half an hour and called Ashley, "Sell it."
Ashley suppressed his inner ecstasy and said in a heavy tone, "Fiona, don't worry. I won't make any mistakes in this matter."
The next morning, Ashley found the seller. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
She and Fiona went to the agreed place to sign the contract. The buyer's name was Emmanisia and her company and people were abroad, so this time the contract was signed electronically online.
On the way, Fiona dawdled.
Ashley saw her hesitation and advised, "Fiona, don't worry. Emmanisia is the daughter of a consortium, worth hundreds of billions of dollars. I asked for a good buyer, very reliable. She also promised that she will not easily resell the shares. If you want to buy them back in the future when the money is back, she is also willing to let go. ."
Fiona was a bit incredulous, "Is it really such a good thing? Such a stupid person? What is she doing this for?"
Ashley laughed, "She is not short of money, just wants to move back to the motherland. So she purchases shares to pave the way. You can rest assured that there will be no problem."
Fiona will follow her in with suspicion.
But after reading the contract, Fiona was furious!
"Didn't we agree to sell only 20% of my shares!? Why did you include Sheila's 10% and the Freeman Manor house as well!? No more! Definitely not!"
Ashley gave her a back rub to smooth her.
"Fiona, if I don't do this, with the Freeman group's current dire situation, your 20% share is not enough to fill the big hole! And they said, the house is not for sale, only as a mortgage temporarily. You can still live in that villa. When the project is completed, the money is earned back, you can buy it all back again ."
It was true ...
But ...
"But the price is too low!"
Fiona pointed to the contract, being reluctant, "It's only 8 billion. If it happens before, my 20% of the shares alone is more than that!"
"Fiona! They have a lot of money.How can they not go to investigate the Freeman group's details? According to the current situation of the group, this is already the highest offer. You should not hesitate!"
"Fiona ah ..."
"Okay ..."
Ashley almost lost her patience, tried every possible way to persuade her, and finally let her sign the share transfer agreement, hand out the Freeman Manor's real estate license reluctantly, and sign the mortgage contract.
After finishing, Fiona was depressed, "Now that the funding problem is solved. You have to pay more attention to this period of time. The hole will be filled properly, and other projects should also be followed up a little. No more quality and jerry-built problems. Help me buy back the shares sooner!
"Yes, Fiona, you can rest assured that I will try my best to do my job."
Ashley hugged her arm to pamper and her face was hidden the joy.
The two laughed and giggled as they got into the car and left.
No sooner had they left, however, Lyra, sitting in the Angle Group office, received a text message.
There were only two words on the text message, [thing done].
She breathed a sigh of relief.
In three days at most, the Freeman family was about to undergo a radical change!
She was looking forward to it.
As she thought about it, there was a knock on the office door and Garrett walked in in response.
Different from his previous gentle and elegant way, he frowned and his face did not look good.
Without waiting for Lyra to ask him, he walked straight to the conference chair opposite Lyra and sat down, separated from her by a desk.
"What's wrong with you?" Lyra wondered.
"I didn't expect that you wanted to enter real estate for him." His face was sullen, and there was even a hint of despondency in his eyes.
He knew so quickly?
The Frazier family was not as powerful as the Lloyd family, but it was also a prestigious family, so he can easily investigate it.
But Lyra didn't want to hide it from him either.
"That's right."
Garrett was depressed to see her actually admit it with an uncharacteristically bemused expression.
"Why? If you look back, you'll find someone better who has been waiting for you, and you just can't ..."
"This ‘someone', do you want to say it's you?"
Lyra interrupted him, and they looked at each other.
Garrett blushed slightly.
He plucked up the courage to confess, but Lyra was the first to say, "But you should know that it's impossible for me to be with you, not even Cody."
Garrett's heart abruptly sank to the bottom, with a hint of hurt hidden under his eyes.
"I don't know, why?" He thought for a moment, "Is it because of Irene? It's true that she did something wrong before, but she was confined recently. She knows that she was wrong. She won't target you again in the future."
Lyra shook her head and laughed, "I know you like me. I knew it many years ago, but your feelings for me is simply because you don't get it and are resigned to it."
Garrett didn't say anything and was slightly flushed as he looked at her.
Lyra continued, "You're gentle, humble, and a breath of fresh air to everyone.But you have a flaw, you're protective! You know all about how much Irene persecuted me at the time, but you haven't mentioned a word of it these days."
"I ..."
Garrett chocked and was resentful, "What about Melvin? His sister and mother are cruel to you too. Wouldn't he have been protective?"
