Chapter 602 A Mere Figurehead

He already knew he was unable to stop Sonia from becoming the chairman.

Moreover, he joined forces with Jessica to threaten Sonia today, so he knew the latter would surely hold resentment toward him. If Sonia successfully became the chairman, she would definitely sanction him immediately.

As such, in order to avoid being sanctioned, all that Asher could do now was to force Sonia to give up the shares amounting to 5.5 percent. As long as the percentage of shares Sonia held did not exceed 50 percent, she would not be the absolute controlling shareholder. Hence, she would not be able to sanction him.

Sonia knew what was on Asher’s mind when she saw his glistening eyes, so she smiled and said, “Sure. I’ll give it to her. But it’s up to her capability whether she’s able to take it or not.”

With that, Sonia took out her phone and summoned Daphne.

“Go and draft a share transfer agreement,” Sonia ordered.

In fact, Sonia knew she would not be able to keep the shares of 5.5 percent from the very beginning, and she would’ve given it up even if Asher didn’t threaten her to.

So, she was not surprised at all to hear his words now. Not only that, she did not even feel the slightest bit of panic or reluctance.

Just as Sonia said just now, Jessica was an idiot, so the former could set a trap for the latter whenever there was a chance and take the 5.5 percent shares back.

Daphne glanced at Sonia in shock when she heard her order, but she still nodded in the end. “Alright, President Reed. I’ll do that right away.”

With that, Daphne left to draft the document.

Soon, the document was ready.

Under the witness of all the executives, shareholders, and lawyers of the group’s legal department, Sonia and Jessica signed the shares transfer agreement.

From now on, Jessica owned 5.5 percent of Paradigm Co.’s shares.

Although this was far less than the 25.5 percent of shares that she desired at first, she knew she would not be able to obtain it, so the 5.5 percent was already a windfall for her.
