    Chapter 285 Collusion


    He had been in the business world for so many years. If he couldn’t see through this kind of drama,


    then the Barnwell group wouldn’t have been able to get to where it was today. Zongxing’s old face


    sank, and he was speechless for a long time. When Jing saw this, he also panicked, “Dad, I will admit


    it, but I am not able to bear the consequences.” Not to mention that he had notpletely taken over


    the family’s voice yet, even if he had, he could notpete with Hank’s strength. “Dad, say something.


    I was possessed and believed in Terry’s nonsense. I really didn’t do it on purpose.” Jing almost knelt


    down to Zongxing on the spot. However, the more he was like this, the more oppressive the


    atmosphere in the living room became. Zongxing pped his thigh heavily. “Alright, scram to the side.”


    He looked at his son, who had returned from studying abroad, and then looked at Hank, who was


    sitting opposite him with a cold and solemn aura. He felt that his son could not bepared to Hank at


    all. Zongxing was helpless, so he could only give up his old face and face Hank. “Mr. Barnwell, say


    something straightforward. What do you want us to do?” As long as Hank spoke, there was still room


    for this matter. No matter what, Zongxing still had some face in the business world. No matter what, he


    would not lose Jing’s future. However, at this moment, he had misjudged Hank. Hank lightly raised his


    eyes and said this, causing the father and son of the Priestley family to be stunned on the spot. “I want


    20% of the Priestley family’s shares.” “What?” “Hank, don’t go overboard. I admit that I did do


    something for Terry, but don’t even think about using this to threaten my father. Your Barnwell group


    already has a problem internally, and it’s not something I can control.” “Indeed, but this is my condition.”


    Hank chuckled. He calmly raised his hand. Keith immediately handed over an indictment. There was


    only one defendant on it, and that was Jing. “You have five minutes to think about it. If you agree to my


    conditions, I will just


    pretend that this has never happened. If you don’t agree, this indictment will be sent to the court


    immediately.”


    Jing quickly ran over to take a look and smiled disdainfully, “Go ahead and sue me. When I get to the


    court, I will expose Terry and the other directors. At that time…”


    All of them would want to tear him apart. Hank did not need to do anything at all, and the Priestley


    Family would be tossed into a pile of mud.


    This move of borrowing a knife to kill was indeed high.


    Halfway through his words, Jing also realized that something was wrong. He gritted his teeth and


    retreated to the side.


    Zongxing sighed heavily. He stood up and bowed to Hank. “This son of mine has been spoiled since he


    was young. He offended Mr. Barnwell. We ept this responsibility.”


    “Very good. Then I won’t disturb you. Tomorrow morning, awyer wille to visit.” Hank got up and


    was about to walk out. “Mr. Barnwell, wait! Twenty percent is too much. Can you give Jasper some face


    and make a concession?” Zongxing abandoned his face and followed.


    “I have already given Jasper enough face. If you continue to bargain, don’t me me for being


    heartless.” Hank paused and smiled. His handsome face sank as he thought of something. “Oh right,


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    the Jones Group can’t amodate such a big shot. I think Jing should change to anotherpany.


    It’s better for him.” He said coldly.


    After that, he walked out of the Armstrong family’s gate. “Look at what you have done. I asked you to


    help Lyra and not let you go against Hank.” Zongxing scolded angrily. Hank sat in the car and left


    without looking back.


    Jing said bitterly. “Dad, it’s not that I want to go against him. He clearly likes Lyra. I did this to let Lyra


    look at me more.” “Do you think that without Hank, she can like you?” “Go and reflect on yourself. Stay


    away from that Terry,” Zongxing said with a sigh. Jing lowered his head and said unwillingly, “Then do


    you really intend to give up thepany’s shares? You saw Hank’s attitude just now. He simply came


    to look for trouble. In my opinion, we shouldn’t follow his wishes!” Zongxing’s face immediately sank,


    “Go upstairs!” The most powerful thing about Hank was not that he was sitting in the position of


    President of the Barnwell group, but that he knew how to persevere.


    This was also the reason why the Jones family had been destroyed in his hands.


    A man who was willing to spend a few years or even more than ten years to wait for a chance to hit in


    one blow was definitely extraordinary.


    Even Jasper could not bepared to Hank, let alone Jing. Zongxing shook his head and stood up,


    “Old Jones, the son-inw you found is really amazing.”


    However, after Jing returned to his room, he did not listen to Zongxing. Instead, he closed his eyes and


    thought about it. He immediately contacted Terry. He nned to ruthlessly kill Hank and let him know


    the price of showing off in the Armstrong Family. As soon as the call connected, Jing said excitedly,


    “Terry, the person surnamed Barnwell has alreadye to our door. Let’s think about it quickly. Why…”


    “You idiot.” Terry cursed and immediately hung up the phone. Jing waspletely confused. When he


    called again, it was already turned off. Then, he received a message from an unknown number, “Hank


    must have followed your line and caught my weakness. During this period of time, stay away from me.”


    Jing looked at the phone screen and waspletely stunned.


    “Aren’t you afraid of Hank?”


    But Terry did not reply to him. Only then did Jing understand that he had been used by Terry. Even if


    they were to confront each other face to face, they would push all the me onto him. At that time,


    what he wouldpensate Hank with would not only be twenty percent of the shares.


    In this current situation, who else could save him?


    That was twenty percent of the shares!


    Jing paced around the room for a while and suddenly thought of a person. He immediately took out his


    phone and dialed a number. He waited nervously, and soon the phone was connected.


    “Hello?”


    “Lyra, save me. You’re the only one who can save me now!”


    Jing nearly cried out with his phone in hand. “I don’t understand what you’re talking about,” Lyra


    responded coldly.


    Jing froze for a moment, then the call was hung up again.


    He just stayed at home nkly until Nore came to him. “What are you doing here?” Jing snorted in


    disdain,pletely not taking Nore to heart. “Hank wants to touch your shares. Only by joining hands


    with me will you have a chance to live.” “How did you know?” Jing was shocked. “This is a private


    agreement. Take a good look and see if you want to sign it.” Nore smiled deeply.
