Chapter 211


    Joaquin held an unwavering gaze while locking eyes with Meredith before putting on an innocent


    smile. “Of course, I know you love us!”


    “Really? Do you really understand that?”


    Not knowing how to respond to that, Joaquin could only mimic Jameson by raising his tone. “Of


    course!”


    “Good. I hope you’ll always remember that I love you.”


    “Okay, I will.”


    Giving him a pat on the shoulder, she said, “I’m d to hear that. Now, go have some fun.”

    Hearing that, Joaquin scuttled away. Meredith watched him leave, her gaze chilly. She knew


    Joaquin had a sharp mind like his father, so he was able to uncover quite a few of her secrets. If he


    ever chose to tell Pierre about any of it, which would most likely lead to an investigation, she would


    be done for. With that in mind, she retrieved the chocte from the bin. Tucking it away in her


    pocket, she left the scene.


    Meanwhile, Yard Group was soon auctioned off by a third party. It was highly sought after, and


    coupled by the fact that another corporation offered an astronomical amount to obtain it, the


    company never made it into public auction. Knowing that their assets were sold off at a high price


    gave the shareholders—especially Rnd—some much needed reassurance, as it meant that they


    would at least get some money out of it.


    When it was time to sign the contract, Rnd attended the session as Yard Group’s legal


    representative. On the other hand, the third party moderator was already there when he arrived.


    Rnd was slightly unnerved by the uing session, as from what he gathered, the buyer


    offered a high price. However, the Yard Group’s assets weren’t actually worth that much, so he was


    worried that they wouldn’t be able to agree on a deal.


    “If I may ask, who acquired the Yard Group?” Rnd nced at the moderator.


    With a smile, the moderator replied, “You’ll know who it is when it’s time.”


    “Why aren’t they here yet when it’s already time?” Rnd was getting anxious about it, as he was


    worried that the buyer might be regretting offering such a high price.


    “Mr. Yard, it won’t be polite of us to rush them since they’re the buyer. Besides, there is most likely a


    traffic jam going on, so let’s wait for a little longer.”


    Therefore, Rnd could onlyply. When he felt his patience wearing thin, the door finally


    opened, prompting the moderator to stand up from his seat. “President Yard, you’re finally here!”


    Rnd whipped his head around to look in their direction, only to realize the buyer was none other


    than Selena. The moderator showed her to her seat, which was located directly in front of Rnd.


    While the father and daughter stared at each other across the table, the moderator couldn’t help but


    think, It’s my first time ever witnessing a daughter buying off her father’spany.


    “You’re the one who bought Yard Group?”


    “Who else?” Selena shot back. “If not me, who else would offer such a high price to buy a piece of


    junk?”


    Rnd was enraptured by the revtion. If someone else bought thepany, it would end up as


    theirs, but the fact that Selena was the one who bought it meant that thepany still belonged to


    the Yards. Therefore, not only might he still be the president, but he could gain full control of the


    company after eliminating all the pesky shareholders.


    “Alright, let’s sign the contract.” Rnd egged them on. The moderator retrieved the agreement


    and, after rying the lengthy terms, handed pens to both parties. Selena signed her name without


    hesitation, but Rnd was even faster to do so.


    “Great. This marks the end of the session. From today onward, all assets of Yard Group will belong


    to Selena Yard. After that, Mr. Yard, you’ll have to cooperate with Miss Yard during the handover.”


    “What is there to hand over at this point?” Rnd rubbed his hands together in excitement. “Oh


    Selena, you should’ve told me sooner! I’ve lost sleep over this during the past few days! By the way,


    you did a great job by sending the shareholders away using some money. They’re just a bunch of


    backseat drivers who know nothing about business! It’s marvelous that I get full control over the


    company now!”
