What Separates Me and You

Chapter 281 That Brat Is Openly Challenging Us

Josephine was taken aback. She didn’t understand a word of the content, but she could read the title of the agreement. It read, “Equity Transfer Agreement.”

Puzzled, she looked at Lewis inquiringly.

Derek asked, “Lewis, what do you mean by that? Are you handing over Moss Corporation to a …

He didn’t finish his sentence; Lewis cut him off with a glance. “A what?”

“A mute, of course. Is he for real? Presenting such a large company to a mute like a toy?” This is what he wanted to say, but he couldn’t find the courage to finish his sentence.

He couldn’t help but suspect that something was wrong with Lewis.

Suppressing his emotions, Derek held back his temper as he asked, “Why are you letting her sign?”

Lewis answered, “Since you have decided to transfer your shares, Moss Corporation has nothing to do with you from here on out. Why does it matter who you’re transferring your shares to?”

While Lewis spoke the truth, Moss Corporation had been witness to the blood, sweat, and tears of two generations of the Moss family. It was like their child.

Derek naturally hoped the company would fare better after he let it go and not be treated like a toy, discarded after two plays.

If that was the case, Derek thought it unacceptable. He might as well keep his shares.

Derek said, “Anyway, I disagree with transferring my shares to Josephine. If you insist, let’s

call off the deal.”

Lewis wasn’t the least bit mad after hearing this. He smiled and said, “I advise you to think over the consequences of acting on a whim.”

Derek was left utterly stunned. It was an undeniable fact. How could he have made the decision to transfer his shares if he hadn’t reached a dead end?

Derek struggled internally for a long while. Lewis wasn’t in a rush; he waited for Derek to think it through.

After a while, Derek looked at Lewis, his voice fragile as he asked, “Can you promise me that the company will strive in her hands?”

Lewis responded, “Derek, if my aim is to bring down Moss Corporation, there are numerous methods at my disposal that wouldn’t necessitate such elaborate measures. Don’t you agree?”
