Chapter 517


    Charmine found it ironic. Just because she was an ‘adopted daughter’, even before she was eight and


    made not a single mistake, Amelia and her parents bullied her relentlessly.


    Whenever Senior Jordan, Adam, and Joey were not around, they would bully her and would not let her


    eat on the table.


    Joey stopped defending Charmine after she was eight years old under Tiffany’s maniption, and this


    made them bully her even more obviously.


    It did not stop just at bread rolls; it wasmon for them to feed her with leftovers.


    They looked down on her in the past, yet because of their bankruptcy, they became so ttering even


    before she spoke? What a joke!


    Suddenly, Senior Jordan mmed his hands on the table. “Enough! You three should stop being an


    embarrassment and shut your mouths!” He jeered before he turned to look at Charmine. “Charmine,


    don’t mind them. Grandpa only has one thing to say to you: If you’re willing to help the Jordan family, all


    of the shares, properties, factories, and the special team will belong to you from now onward. No one


    will me you if you’re unwilling to help us. You’ll always be my good granddaughter. “I’ll think of ways


    to make some profits after auctioning. I won’t want to drag you into this.” Senior Jordan’s tone was


    caring and peaceful.


    Charmine’s heart felt warm at that as she replied, “You’re so kind to me. How can I not save the


    company? It’s just that if you give me all of the shares, some people might not agree to that.”


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    As she spoke, she nced at Amelia and her parents.


    As expected, Amelia argued, “Now that sixty percent of the Jordan shares are on auction, we only have


    fifteen percent in our hands. If we give this to Charmine as well, then nobody in the family other than


    Charmine would have the family shares! Is she trying to monopolize?”


    “What else do you want? Bring out tens of billions, and I’ll let you monopolize!” snapped Senior Jordan.


    Amelia went speechless instantly. Dr. Weir, who had spectated their argument, chimed in, “Why bother


    wasting time on them? If they’re unwilling to give out the shares, Charmine will pay for the rest of the


    overdraft and make them pay for the fifteen percent overdraft themselves.”


    Right! That might work! Senior Jordan was reminded and said, “Adam, calcte how much they’ll have


    to pay.” Adam frowned. After a moment’s thought, he said, “ording to the bankruptcy use of the


    company, all shareholders will have to pay the overdraft ording to their percentage of ownership.


    Amelia and her parents still have fifteen percent of the shares, and now that thepany is fifty billion


    in debt, they’ll need to repay seven billion and five hundred million.”


    Amelia and her parents reeled back in shock at the oue, their eyes wide like saucers. They would


    have to pay 7.5 billion! Where were they supposed to find that amount of money? They did not even


    have the money to buy meat!


    Although they had handsome dividends every year, they did not know how to manage their money.


    Amelia spent the money like it was flowing water, buying things left and right as soon as she received


    her dividends. Lily loved makeup and skincare, while Felix loved to gamble and always ended up losing


    all of the money. Every year, they waited for the dividends to spend them all. How would they be able to


    find 7.5 billion to repay the debt? Lily’s face turned white as she eventually replied, “You wanted us to


    give out the shares, right? We’re willing to! We are! We’ll sign the papers right away, and let Charmine


    pay for the 7.5 billion debt.”


    “Mom…” Amelia pulled on Lily’s arm, reluctant.


    However, Lily swung her hand away. “What else do you want? Do you want to pay the seven billion and


    five hundred million debt? Do you have the money?”


    Amelia bit her tongue. Of course she did not have it; she just could not bear to part with the shares.


    Without the shares, they would receive no dividend once the Jordan Group got back on its feet.


    Even Felix understood the importance of the matter as he said to Charmine, “We’re willing to give you


    our shares, and you only have to take care of the debts. Please don’t ask us to pay anything!”


    “You sure?” Charmine asked coldly. Felix and Lily nodded instantly. “Absolutely!”
