Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Harris Group was the second largest conglomerate in Chanaea after Jenson Group. Five percent of its shares was already a significant amount.

Yet, Craig demanded fifteen percent in one go, and this was meant to cover the costs of the engagement gifts alone.

They would have to spend even more by the time they got married.

Gwendolyn and Treyton wouldn’t have minded if all fifteen percent of the shares were to be given to Jennifer. However, the Newton family were the ones taking it all.

The atmosphere in the living room was grim, and no one spoke for some time.

Craig observed Gwendolyn’s and Treyton’s expressions with a smile. “Jennifer is a popular celebrity. Since the announcement of her identity as the Newton family’s daughter, many aristocrats have been coming to me to propose an engagement. Most of them offered fifteen percent of their company’s shares. That’s why I’m consulting your opinion about this, Mr. Treyton.”

Treyton remained silent.

He had no say in this matter, as Harris Group didn’t belong to him.

He only possessed fifteen percent of Harris Group’s shares as the third son of the Harris family and needed permission from the family head before using them.

It was outrageous for all of it to go to the engagement.

Gwendolyn chuckled. “Mr. Craig, don’t you think this is a little much? How could you compare fifteen percent of Harris Group’s shares to that of other companies in the market?”

“The other families offered monetary gifts in addition to fifteen percent of their company’s shares. It is only reasonable that I stated this one request. After all, Harris Group’s stock price is much higher than most others,” Craig replied.

Gwendolyn was annoyed by his sly smile and proceeded to give him an earful.

“Mr. Craig, you’re simply being unreasonable. After Jennifer left the orphanage, she made her debut through my company’s talent show with her own effort. Angle and Treyton had been with her every step of the way to provide her with the resources she needed. You can’t deny that behind the glory of winning the Best Actress Award, besides her own talent and hard work, Jennifer’s achievements wouldn’t have been made possible if not for Treyton and me. The Newton family never lent her a hand in the past twenty years. Besides giving her a place in a prestigious family, the Newton family has contributed nothing to her success. How dare you ask for fifteen percent of Harris Group’s share? Dare I say the Newton family will be hogging all of it while Jennifer won’t even get a cent? The Newton family cannot take credit for bringing her up. To think you still treat her like a bargaining chip while she’s in a relationship with Treyton! Craig, you sure are ruthless and materialistic!”

Craig’s expression remained indifferent.
