Chapter 244
Half an hourter, only the lights in the CEO''s office on the thirty-second floor were still lit in
Hamilton Corporation.
By the time Keh returned, there were only a few people left. Fabian was on the phone, but at
the sight of Keh, he hung up after uttering a few words.
“Mr. Hamilton!”
Keh strode toward his office while Fabian followed closely behind.
Shrugging off his jacket, Keh casually tossed it aside and looked back at him. “What''s the
matter?”
“I discovered that someone has been buying ourpany''s shares in secret recently. Most of the
shares in the hands of the minor shareholders have already been acquired. I tried making inquiries
about the identity of the person, but they adamantly refused to reveal anything. Moreover, the
acquisition price is three times the market value,” Fabian reported somberly.
Upon hearing that, Keh narrowed his eyes a fraction.
“Say, could this be Kingsley''s doing, Mr. Hamilton? Previously, he wanted to impeach you.”
“It isn''t him!” Keh stated bluntly.
“But who could it be besides him?” Fabian couldn''t think of anyone else.
Keh''s gaze was unfathomable. “He''s a stingy man, and he''s familiar with thepany''s
operations. He would never do such a thing as forking out three times the price to acquire some
shares. If he really wanted to do this, he would''ve done so back then. Why would he wait until now
when were head-to-head to do this?”Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.
“While that''s true, who else could it be other than him? It''s obvious that the culprit is targeting you.”
Keh''s eyes narrowed into slits, a gleam of chilliness glinting in them.
“Fabian!”
“Yes?”
“Go and negotiate about acquiring their shares as well. They''re offering three times the price, yes?
We''ll offer five times the price. Also, ask whether any major shareholders are willing to sell a portion
of their shares. Let them propose the price.”
“But Mr. Hamilton—”
“Do as I ordered!”
Fabian thought for a while before he nodded. “Okay. Got it!”
“In addition, how''s the progress with Zachary?” Keh inquired.
“He hasn''t made any moves, merely going to the hospital to visit his mother. He also visited
Desmond once. It''s rumored that they got into an argument, and Desmond even flew into a rage in
prison.
When Keh heard that, his lips curved into a sneer.
“On top of that...” Eyeing the man, Fabian appeared hesitant to speak.
“What else?” Keh demanded.
After a moment''s hesitation, Fabian continued, “On top of that, Thea and Zachary have been very
closetely...
Their rtionship seems to be more than that of friends.”
Keh narrowed his eyes upon hearing that and red at the man. “Do you think I care about
that?”
“No, I just felt that it isn''t quite appropriate for Ms. Jarman to do such a thing.” Fabian didn''t quite
know how to exin it.
Everyone was aware of her feelings toward Keh in the past, but she went to his archenemy
when she failed to bag him. Verily, such an action invited much spection.
Unexpectedly, the corners of Keh''s mouth turned up. “Every individual has the right to make his
or her own choice, and this is understandable.”
“But—”
“I don''t care what she is or will be doing. Just keep an eye on Zachary. Once he makes a move,
inform me immediately!” Keh ordered.
Following that, Fabian nodded. “Understood.”
“You''re dismissed.”
Nodding, Fabian turned around and went out.
In the office, Keh sat on the leather chair. His indecipherable gaze was just like a vast stretch of
purgatory.
Keh was exceedingly efficient.
In no time, an entertainmentpany known as “NatNise Media” surreptitiously came to be.
That was also the entertainmentpany that helped Denise sign her contract. It was a new
company, so no one thought much of it. With that, Denise was officially ready to join the film crew.
When Liam learned of that matter, he initially strongly opposed it. After all, the entertainment
industry was a sleazy ce, messy and arduous. As such, he couldn''t possibly allow the darling of
the Hamilton family to suffer such a hardship. However, the instant he heard that Natasha was
supportive of it, he changed his mind.
Moreover, he felt that no one would dare do anything to Denise with the Hamilton family protecting
her.
Subsequently, he learned that Keh purposefully established an entertainmentpany just for
her. Only then did all his worries fade away.
As long as his great-granddaughter wanted to join the entertainment industry, he didn''t mind
allowing her free rein.
Thus, he deliberately organized a dinner at Infinitium the night he learned of that news to celebrate
Denise''s venture.
Terence went early with the three children. After they had arrived, the three children stayed in the
private room while Terence went out to make a phone call.
Only then did Anthony and Benjamin learn that Denise would be filming a movie. Nheless, they
weren''t at all surprised.
“Tony, Ben, are you both not surprised?” Denise asked with her eyes fixated on them.
“What''s there to be surprised about? I support you no matter what you''d like
to do!” Anthony dered.
Besides, doing this is better than doing some dangerous stuff with us. Indeed, it''s tiring. But at the
very least, it isn''t that dangerous.
Right then, Benjamin seconded, “Exactly! Furthermore, this is perfect for you, considering your
looks. Our family''s genes are pretty good, so it''s a pity not to be a celebrity!”
As they both expressed their fervent support, Denise frowned.
“Did you two reach a consensus, not wanting me to go for training?” she questioned, eyeing them
suspiciously.
“No!” Anthony denied it.
“Of course not! I just feel that this is indeed suitable for you!” Benjamin denied it as well.
However, Denise grew increasingly suspicious the more they convinced her otherwise.
“You two don''t need to lie to me, for I know your thoughts all too well. Don''t forget that we''re triplets.
I''ve got a telepathic connection with you both!” she huffed. Hah! They want to keep me in the dark,
huh? That''s pretty much impossible!
Both Anthony and Benjamin went silent.
They exchanged a nce before Anthony admitted, “Indeed, I hope that you can stay by Nat''s side.
Although this job is tiring, at the very least, it isn''t dangerous.”
Frowning, Denise shifted her gaze to Benjamin. “What do you think, Ben?” “Although that''s my hope
as well, I absolutely respect your decision!”
Benjamin asserted.
“You''re much wiser, Ben!” Denise growled in displeasure.
Hearing that, Anthony said nothing.
“The filming for this movie is only two months. I''m just going to try it out. Then, I''ll decide what
happens after two months!” Denise enunciated. At that moment, she was no longer her usual
sweet, adorable, and docile self. Instead, her expression radiated determination and persistence.
She seemed like an entirely different person from before.
Despite that, Anthony and Benjamin knew that it was her true self.
As though afraid that she would be angry, they nced at each other without speaking further.
At that precise moment, the door was pushed open. Liam and Terence walked in, followed closely
by Keh and Natasha.
When Denise spotted them entering the room, she immediately hid away her earlier expression,
reverting to her usual considerate and sensible self.
However, as soon as Keh stepped into the room, he seemingly noticed the tense atmosphere a
heartbeat ago. That aside, he caught a glimpse of Denise''s stiffened expression.
Were they fighting just now?
