Chapter 260
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.Brown, the contract is ready.Please have a look at it."
Ronald 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 Ronald 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.Brown.I''ve been with you for so long, so I know the rules!" Kyrie took the hint.
Ronald narrowed his eyes andughed coldly as he watched Kyrie leave to print the contract.
This was the consensus he had reached with Hayden at the secret meetingst night.
He would transfer all of the Brownard Group''s assets to Hayden.
In return, Hayden would give him ten billion dors.
Brownard Group would no longer exist in two days once the contract had been signed.
By then, he would have set up his ownpany at B City.
When the time came, Valeria would have a huge debt to pay off.
When she realised that they owed the debt to the Howard family, she would hate them to the core, and
hate William at the same time, too.
His n with Hayden was like killing three birds with one stone.Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Not only did it solve his problems, but it also separated Valeria and William.
It could also make Natalie''spany disappear from B City Natalie would definitely jump out of the
grave in anger if she knew that herpany had been closed down and her daughter was in grave
debt.
Ronald thought to himself happily as the door of his office was pushed open before Ashley came in.
She asked Ronald 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’ Ronald 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?" Ronald 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 Valeria finds out about our
ns."
Ronald sneered at Ashley''s nervous expression.
He never trusted people easily. He had always been careful when it came to his own assets.
Julie and Ashley had tried their best to persuade him to register a newpany 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 newpany under their
names.
This was because the transferred assets would belong to Julie and Ashley as the newpany was
registered under their names.
What should he do if Julie and Ashley decided to cut ties with him after that? Valeria was silly and easy
to fool, but Ashley and Julie were not.
She was still trying to please him now, but what if she identally revealed her bad intentions to him
one day? Therefore, having thepany under his name would be the best choice.
Ronald immediately came up with another idea once the approval for the newpany''s license had
been denied.
A hint of coldness shed in Ronald''s eyes after seeing how anxious Ashley was towards his new
company.
Her impatience disgusted him as she was only an illegitimate daughter.
Could it be that she and Julie 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?"
Ashley forced a smile after looking at the strange expression on Ronald''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."
Ashley left sulkily as Ronald was brushing her off.
She closed the door once she had returned to her office before calling Julie, "Mom, I don''t know what
dad is doing.The newpany''s registration was rejected, but he was not worried at all."
"Really? He won''t go back on his words, will he?" Julie guessed.
"I hope now? He might really go back on his words because of how unpredictable he is.Our n will be
in vain if he does so, right?" Ashley 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"
Julie reminded Ashley, "You''d better hide your true intentions from him, you understand?"
Valeria thought that she would feel relieved after meeting Lucian.
However, she felt worse instead.She knew very well that Lucian was telling the truth.
Ronald had the absolute power to do whatever he wanted as the current chairman of thepany.
Could it be that the only thing she could do was to watch him as he emptied thepany? It would be
fine if she didn''t know about it, but she had to stop it now that she knew about his ns.
Should she steal thepany''s seal, or knock out Ronald to make him unconscious? Or she could
kidnap him for a while and release him only after she had a n? Countless thoughts shed through
her mind at this moment.
Thepany''s seal was guarded carefully in Ronald''s office.
Would she even have a chance to get it? Ronald used the seal every day.
Therefore, even if she managed to steal it, Ronald would be alert once he realized it was missing.
As for knocking him out, it was unlikely for that to seed.
All the employees in thepany were Ronald''s people, and everyone would know immediately if
something happened to him.
Additionally, kidnapping Ronald 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.
Valeria leaned on the car anxiously and thought of many ns, 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.
Arge and bolded title popped out on her screen: An unexpected disaster! A scammer, who pretended
to represent apany, wrote an official record to carry out a fraud.
Thepany that had been scammed would be suing the fake family, and thetter''s assets would all
be frozen.
A thought struck Valeria when she read the news.
Ronald wanted to transfer out Brownard Group''s assets and sign the contract, so she would get the
court to freeze thepany''s assets to prevent him from carrying out his ns.
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 n to send it to court so I can freeze the assets of
Brownard Group!"
"What are you trying to do?" Abbie was baffled.
"I think my father is nning to transfer thepany''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 ns."
Abbie didn''t understand what Valeria was trying to say tell her, but she replied, "Forget it, I''ll tell my
brother directly."
