Chapter 312
“Let’s just bring some people over to the Black Tiger Hall to retrieve the artwork!” Xeno said with a lick of his chapped lips. He had long wanted to go up against them. Now, the
opportunity had come. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
Shaking his head, Nash replied, “We don’t need to do that. We’ll buy it back at the auction this afternoon. Since it’s no longer the Young family’s property, acquiring it through legitimate means is the best choice.”
Xeno continued, “The head of the Duerson family just came back from overseas. Shouldn’t we pay them a visit?”
Nash looked at Melody, who was still on a call outside, and responded slowly, “Let’s go to Baroque first. I’ll handle the matter with the Duersons on my own.”
Melody was pacing back and forth, her expression slightly tense. After waiting for a full three minutes, she finally heard a flurry of rapid footsteps.
“Melody, you were looking for me?” A cool voice from the other end of the phone sounded.
“Mr. Hughes, if a descendent of Harper Young is still around, can they inherit that 10% of shares?” Melody asked in a low voice.
“According to Mr. Young’s will, any of his legitimate descendants can inherit the shares.”
The capital of Moliga Empire was Moonstone City. A forest of skyscrapers reached up into the sky, making this place one of the most bustling cities in the world.
The Universal Tower was up high in the clouds with its 199 floors. At a single glance, even its top was invisible. In the Legal Department of Universal Group on the 90th floor, Fabian, the director of legal affairs, was frowning slightly. He asked, “Melody, what are you saying?”
Fabian was a member of the House of Representatives, the director of Universal Group’s Legal Department, and the president of Universal Foundation. After graduating from university, Melody interned at Universal Group’s headquarters for a period of time. She tried courting Fabian back then, but the man seemed to have little interest in women.
“I found a survivor from the Young Family Village. He’s the son of Wolfgang Young!” Melody was somewhat excited. If Nash were to inherit his great-grandfather’s 10% shares, he would become the largest shareholder of Universal Group in one fell swoop.
Ten percent shares amounted to approximately 800 million shares. If they made their calculations based on Universal Group’s current market price of approximately 120 Moliga dollars per share, Nash was now in possession of stocks worth roughly 96 billion Moliga dollars, which was equivalent to 672 billion Drakonia dollars. That was enough to make him one of the world’s richest individuals.
“Melody, do you think this is a joke?” Fabian said coldly.
“Do you think I’m joking with you?” Melody’s tone was equally cold.
“I’ll send someone to verify this. I have the authority to throw you out of the company if you dare deceive me,” Fabian warned.
“How are you going to verify that?”
“Where are you right now?”
“Drakonia, Jonford.”
“Take a strand of his hair and hand it over to Frankie. He’s a lawyer at the Jonford branch.”
“Understood.”
Ending the call, Melody turned to walk toward the Audi.
“To Baroque!”
“To Universal Group!”
Nash and Melody spoke at the same time. Xeno just laughed dryly before asking, “So… who am I supposed to listen to?”
“What are we even going to Universal Group for?” Nash asked suspiciously.
“You don’t want to go look around the company your great-grandfather built?”
“Huh?” Nash looked at her with wide eyes.
“Wow…” Xeno and Finn were also stunned.
At Jonford Universal Group, Hera was looking at the vast industrial area as her heart pounded. She suddenly admired her own courage. She had just started a partnership with Drake Group and was already thinking about collaborating with one of the top ten companies in the world, Universal Group.
Hans and Yvonne were following Hera closely, both of them wearing awe-struck expressions.
“The state-owned enterprise I used to work for is nothing compared to this. And this is just one of Universal Group’s 180 subsidiaries!”
Yvonne took out her phone, showing a photo of herself in front of Moliga Universal Group’s headquarters. Chest puffed, she said, “Take a look at the company’s headquarters. It has 199 floors. Quite magnificent, isn’t it?”
