CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

Back then she hoped that Jason would give her some. Even if it was only 1%, it would at least make her feel like she was a Moore.

Now, it seemed that when she didn’t care about the shares anymore was also the time when Jason wanted to give it to her. She suppressed a bitter laugh as she thought of all the times she had cried at their words and crumbled at their insults.

How ironic!

Alyssa couldn’t help herself and actually laughed aloud. It was really ridiculous.

Although she knew that Jason had ulterior motives in mind, she still asked, “How many shares are you planning to give me.”

“As you’re my daughter, you’ll receive more shares than your mother.” He said vaguely, patting his chest. There was silence before he continued, “Don’t worry, I won’t treat you unfairly. After all, I’m your father.”

Her shares were more than Aurora’s? Alyssa pursed her lips.

Hm… Since he had already mentioned the shares, how can she make it easy for him?

“Well, now that I’ve become the Young Madame of the Lawrence family, it’s only natural as you treat me as such.” Alyssa said coldly. “If you really want to offer me some shares, I’d take at least 15%. Anything less would be an insult to the Lawrence family, don’t you think?”

Although she didn’t have any shares in the Moore Group, she knew how those shares were publicly distributed.

Jason had a 30% shares in the business. Skylar and her brother each had 10%. Aurora only had 5% that totaled 55%. The majority vote was all part of the Moore family.

The remaining percentage belonged to the other shareholders.

If Jason agreed to give 15% of his shares, he’d be in great danger.

That meant that if Alyssa didn’t vote for him during the next shareholder meeting, he might not be able to hold his position as chairman of the Moore Group.

There was silence from the other end of the line.
