Chapter 43


    He had no choice but to spend the night on the sofa.


    The next day, Tom went to have a meal with Malcolm. In Juyaxuan, Malcolm booked the most luxurious


    room and specially invited Tom.


    Malcolm was already sixty this year, but he only looked like a fifty-year-old man, who was well kept.


    In fact, Malcolm was a very motivated person. He came out from his hometown at the age of fifteen to


    find a job. For more than ten years, he had tried no less than a hundred kinds of jobs and always be


    honest, and diligent, but his job was still in. Later, his woman was slept with by the boss, so he


    directly chopped the boss, and then he was put in prison for a few years. Aftering out of prison, his


    perception has changed dramatically. His previous honesty and generosity disappeared and he


    became sophisticated and treacherous. He became rich in his middle age and his business grew


    bigger and bigger by his means. He not only opened a casino, but also opened a KTV. he is not too top


    in H City, but also a powerful person. Tom still remembered that just a few years ago, someone in the


    Scott Family offended Malcolm. At that time, the whole of the Scott Family was afraid. Only by giving a


    great sum of money by Richard personally did this thing pass.


    Malcolm, who frightened the Scott Family a lot now, respectfully lowered himself in front of Tom and


    followed Elliot to call him "chairman" respectfully.


    Tom felt satisfied. Malcolm ttered him in various ways. He was good at ttering, but there was no


    trace of it, and it was not repulsive. It had to be said that Malcolm really had special methods to get the


    status today.


    ...


    Recently Zack lived a happy and satisfying life. With that 20 million injections, the Scott Family


    originally broken the capital chain was renewed, and many channel merchants began toe to


    cooperate. Everything was back to the previous track, and they gained profits in a short time. He also


    got his share of the dividend. He had been poor for so long, now all changed, and he immediately


    spent tens of thousands of dors to go to the bar and found a college-girl prostitute to vent his


    emotions.


    The best part was that he had won hundreds of thousands dors at Malcolm''s gambling casino with


    his friends these two days. He was really arrogant and satisfied that he even wanted everyone to know


    this.


    When the family came out for dinner yesterday, he saw that Phoebe was going to pack the leftovers


    back and mocked Phoebe arrogantly.


    At the Scott Family''s conference room.


    Zack gave everyone a report on the recent performance, and he said proudly, "Tell you good news, the


    family''s business is now back on track. Not only that, not long ago, our twopetingpanies lost


    more money than even we did because of improper operations, and they had now dered


    bankruptcy! In other words, now we have no more rivals in H City! In the future, we will continue to get


    higher records, and I believe we will be able to expand and build a factory next year."


    Hearing his words, all the shareholders of the Scott Family apuded, including Phoebe, who was also


    one of the shareholders. She felt genuinely happy.


    It could be said that it was mainly because of her that the Scott Family could survive this time. If she


    hadn''t borrowed the 20 million dors, the Scott Family would have disappeared.


    She waited for her grandfather Richard''s praise and looked happy.


    However, after Richard stood up, he did not mention her once and gave all the credit to Zack, "It is


    right. Thanks to Zack that our Scott Family could survive the disaster this time. It was he who stood up


    for the Scott Family at the most crisis time and held up the debtors. During this period of time, he has


    been busy for thepany and gained many great orders for thepany. Come on, let''s all give


    Zack a round of apuse!"


    After that, he began to take the lead in apuding Zack.


    Phoebe frowned. She was very ufortable. She knew that her grandfather, Richard, was biased,


    but it went too far this time.


    She endured and did not let it out. She hoped that grandpa could mention her, even one word.


    However, she waited for a long time, and her grandfather did not mention her at all, and his eyes


    ncing at her were also very cold.


    Why? She was not convinced. She was really dissatisfied.


    But she had a quiet personality. Although she was very ufortable, she did not stand up and retort.


    The family business was starting to make money, so it was fine if she didn''t take credit for it. However,


    what grandpa said next was uneptable to her.


    "As I said earlier, Zack gets the most credit for the family''s survival, so we need to redistribute the


    shares." Richard paused and said, "James''s family has too many shares, ounting for fifteen


    percent. This is not fair to everyone. I decided to weaken James''s ten percent of shares and transfer it


    to Zack."


    "What?!" Phoebe couldn''t help but stand up and say, "Grandpa, why are you cutting our shares?!"


    Victor immediately mmed the table and scolded, "Phoebe, what''s your attitude? Who taught you to


    yell at your grandfather like this? Rude!"


    Richard''s face darkened as well. He stared at Phoebe and said, "You should only have 5 % of the


    shares."


    Phoebe clenched her fists and said, "But grandpa, you promised me that as long as I borrowed 20


    million from Mr. Cook, you would give us 10 % more shares!"


    "Yes, dad, we indeed said that..." James said reluctantly.


    "Shut up!" Richard''s cold eyes flew over, and James''s face turned pale. He lowered his head and did


    not dare to speak.


    "How dare you say that?" Richard said with a cold face, "Now everyone outside is saying that there is a


    fickle woman in our Scott Family. You have ruined the reputation of our Scott Family!"


    Phoebe said excitedly, "I didn''t! I''ve already exined to you that the chairman of the ZQ Company


    didn''t touch me. I''m innocent!"


    Zack said in a strange tone, "It sounds great. Who would believe it? Do you really think we''re idiots?


    Since he''s the Chairman of ZQ Company, he didn''t touch you but lend you 20 million dors for


    nothing?"


    Phoebe still wanted to argue. Richard pped the table and said, "Okay, that''s it. Phoebe, you can stay


    at home and share the dividends from now on. You don''t have to work at thepany anymore."


    Hearing this, Phoebe couldn''t help but burst into tears and rushed out of the conference room.


    After the family meeting ended, Zack became the biggest winner. To celebrate it, that night, he went to


    Malcolm''s casino to get pleasure.


    He thought he was lucky enough to win a lot of money recently. However, in less than two hours, he


    lost back the hundreds of thousands of dors he had won earlier, and he was not willing to stop


    gambling, intending to win back what he had lost and then quit. But his luck seemed to have run out in


    the first two days, and in less than an hour, he lost hundreds of thousands of dors again!


    In this way, he put in all the dividends of thepany a while ago.


    How could he ept this fact? He gritted his teeth on the spot and borrowed 500,000 from the casino


    to continue gambling.


    However, the 500,000 dors waspletely lost in less than half an hour.


    Seeing this, his friend advised him not to gamble anymore, but he rudely pushed his friend away. His


    friend was also angry and watched coldly as he lost.


    At the end of the day, Zack lost three million dors!


    Three million was already a big sum for him. He didn''t dare to tell anyone. If grandpa Richard found


    out, his legs would be broken.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    But Malcolm''s money, he did not dare to dy. After all, Malcolm was famous for being ruthless in H


    City. Once he offended Malcolm, he would not be able to survive in H City.


    So he secretly got half a million dors in thepany, one hundred thousand of which was the


    interest paid to Malcolm, and the other four hundred thousand dors was used as a gambling capital,


    intending to win back what he lost yesterday, and then stopped gambling!


    But he had already jumped in. There was no reason for him to escape so easily. Without any doubt, he


    lost another five million today!


    He borrowed 4.5 million dors from Malcolm, plus the previous three million dors, which was 7.5


    million dors. The interest in a day was more than 200,000 dors.


    He was almost crazy. How could he afford it?


    But he had to pay it back, so he gritted his teeth and stole another million dors from thepany, of


    which 300,000 was the interest paid to Malcolm, and the remaining 700,000 was still used as a bet,


    hoping to win back everything he lost.


    Did he win back? Of course, it was impossible. On this day, he lost the most. Not only did he give out


    the 700,000 dors, but he also lost eight million more! Taking into ount the previous 7.5 million


    dors, he owed Malcolm a total of 15.55 million dors. The interest for a day would cost millions.


    Finally, he couldn''t bear it anymore.
