After Divorce I Am A Billionaire

Chapter 101

Melvin's eyes looked complicated.

He thought about it and his tone became more firm, "Tomorrow, I have to go back to Frayton!"

Chad didn't answer, gritted his teeth, and took advantage of Melvin's current weakness to chop him in the back of the head.

With a muffled grunt, Melvin passed out on the spot.

Several other men saw it and were scared to death, "Chad, do you want to die!? When boss wakes up, he won't let you go off."

Chad's eyes looked firm and he knelt at Melvin's feet in a disciplined manner.

"If I don't do this, boss will crawl back to Frayton. He is now seriously injured, and still has fever. I can not take his life to risk this. Even if he wants to kill me later, I admit it!"

The others sighed helplessly and said nothing ultimately.

Two days later.

The Freeman group president's office.

Through the door, one can hear the shrill sound of things being dropped inside.

Ashley glanced at the broken coffee cups on the floor and said nicely, "Fiona, please calm down. We must have been set up by Atimber Property this time. They paid such a high advance price for the shipment they booked with Oceania Construction. How could they end up with such a defective products?"

"I can't believe you can't even take care with such a small company. How on earth do you do your job?!"

Fiona was very angry!

They wasted 5oo million cash on the purchase of a bunch of defective goods. The key was that the contract was also premeditated and the type of goods was filled in in a very obscure way. Ashley signed her name before she checked three or five times. Now it was impossible for her to take the contract to find troubles with Oceania Construction.

The defective products can only rot in the hands for nothing.

500 million cash was wasted! Once something went wrong on the group's other projects, it would be in a financial strait.

Although Fiona was not very good at business, when relating to money, she can calculate it quickly.

Ashley was in the wrong and can only obediently admit fault, "Sorry Fiona, this time I was careless. You can rest assured that I will try to make up for the loss. Please trust me again. Although I failed this time, I do a lot of things for the group. Fiona, you can think more about my credit."

Ashley was telling the truth. Before this incident, Ashley handle all the thing in the group in order.

Fiona's anger subsided a lot, "Forget it. I don't care what ways you use. Hurry up and deal with this deficit for me."

"Okay. Fiona, don't worry."

Ashley came out of the office with a calm demeanor, and as soon as she turned around, her expression was suddenly serious.

Which way?

Then that was all she can do!

Atimber Property's garage.

Lyra sat in the car. Some time ago she went to the 4S store to change the glass of Magotan, not only to isolate the view, but also sound insulation and anti-bugging.

Jackie walked over slowly and made sure there was no one around before sitting in.

"Boss, Ashley takes on a ton of projects and collects a bunch of advance payment to cover the shortfall in her contract with Oceania Construction."

Shouldn't she admire Ashley's courage for daring to take on so many projects?

Ashley came back from abroad, but was engage in idle theorizing. She was short of practical experiences. When she encountered a little problem, it would be difficult for her to tackle, and the loophole will only get bigger.

Lyra pursed her lips and pondered for a second before continuing to ask, "During this period of time, I asked you to buy all the Freeman group's shares at a high price before. How did it work out?"

"Boss, look."

Jackie handed her the collated information, "In order to avoid suspicion, we are collecting two or three shares at a time. And a total of 15% of the shares have been collected under your name in the past two days."

Lyra focused on flipping through the information.

Jackie continued, "Now in the Freeman Group's holding, Melvin holds 40%, the largest shareholder and president. And the other is 45%. there is 15% is in the hands of the Freeman family's sidekick, Melvin's Uncle, Wesley Freeman."

Lyra furrowed her eyebrows and shook her head.

"No, this 15% cannot be moved. Wesley is an old fox, very alert. We should try not to alarm him."

"That leaves Sheila 10% and Fiona 20%. If you can buy both of their shares, you will end up with a total of 5% more shares than Melvin and become the Freeman Group's largest shareholder, but ... "

Jackie paused and looked a little worried, "But it's hard to get shares from Sheila and Fiona. They can't hand them over easily. Boss, do you have a further plan in mind?"

Lyra looked down in contemplation, as if she thought of something and she smiled slightly.

"There's no rush. There are people who are in more of a hurry than us right now!"

...

Ashley was in a real hurry. She just took on a lot of projects, received a bunch of advance payments, and pushed the group to complete those old projects quickly, and gouged out some of the material costs to barely fill the hole caused by the Oceania Construction contract.

As a result, the next day, the construction site, which was ready to be completed this month, suddenly collapsed, and even affected other adjacent buildings because of the quality of materials.

This would mean demolition and reconstruction, but that would require more money than the loss on the Oceania Construction contract.

During this time, she used some small projects to quietly receive a lot of money, but now the group was short of money, she didn't have so much cash money to make up such a big hole.

Fiona was constantly asking her questions, as if she didn't trust her at all.

Ashley sat in her office and was anxious as hell.

As she was thinking about it, the office's phone on her desk rang.

It was Fiona who called directly from the president's office on the link.

She had to make a smile and pick up the phone, "Fiona, what can I do for you?"

Fiona, who was on the other end of the phone, was a little upset.

"Ashley, why didn't you come up to report on your work today? Did something go wrong again?"

Ashley froze and hastened to smile ingratiatingly, "No, Fiona, if there is a problem, of course I will communicate with you first. Because recently there are more things on hand, I did not have time to report to you. Please wait for me a few hours. I will take stock of all the projects and come up."

"Great."

Fiona hang up the phone.

Ashley clenched her palms, with her heart burning with anxiety.

If there was really such a trust, Fiona would not ask her question every day. Fiona was just trying to use these false words without any value to enlist her to work for her.

In that case, Fiona had better not blame her!

She gradually became sinister and quickly arranged for people to modify the accident problem of the project.

A few hours later, she took the documents to Fiona.

As soon as she pushed the door in, she hurriedly rushed to Fiona's table, "Fiona, something bad is happening!"

"What's wrong?"

"That construction site of the old project surprisingly collapsed half a month ago. The accident is not small. But because the person in charge of the project is afraid of taking responsibility, it has been concealed. If I didn't thoroughly investigate it today, I'm afraid that this is still hid until now!"

"How could such a thing happen?!"

Fiona was shocked and rushed to look through the file.

Seeing her reaction, Ashley continued, "The amount of money for the replenishment project is huge. Now other projects are also underway, and need a lot of money. If we can't keep up with the funds, all projects will be forced to stop, and the group will face a semi-paralyzed crisis!

Fiona was dejected and sat in the chair.

It was so screwed!

The Freeman family's generations of hard work couldn't be ruined into her hands so quickly, right?

"My husband and the old Mr. Freeman would be so mad that they'll strangle me if they were still alive!"

Fiona's hands were shaking with fear and she grabbed her phone in a flash of inspiration, "No! I have to find my son. He must come back and take charge of the situation immediately!"

Ashley fiercely pressed her hand, "Fiona, now we have no idea where my cousin is. Even if we know, I'm afraid it's too late. If this big hole can't not be filled in time, the Freeman Group's crisis will only become more and more serious."

"Then ... what should we do?!"

Ashley snickered and had a sinister look, "I know of another way!"
