Chapter 1238
The Gates family really splashed out. They not only invited Adrian, but also the Landry family, as well as Darien and Aubrie. "Adrian, I hear your company's doing so well. It's practically monopolizing the industry.
"You couldn't have made it without Aubrie, could you?"
Darien was like a dangerous tiger, looking at Adrian with a fake smile. Aubrie, who stood by his side, looked very charming.
There was still deep admiration in the way she looked at Adrian.
However, when Adrian looked at them, his eyes were filled with even more disgust than before.
"Seriously? Are you saying she's the boss of Empire Group?" Adrian asked back.
Aubrie was just an employee of Empire Group. How could she take credit for this?
That was really shameless.
Hearing this, Aleigha felt really good.
"Adrian!" Adrian flushed crimson with shame. The point was, the man who satirized her was the man she loved.
What was more, he said that in her love rival's presence.
How could he do that?
"Aleigha, let's go. I can't stay a minute longer than I have to."
Adrian was in a foul mood. The constant presence of unpleasant people made him feel worse.
"Ladies and gentlemen. I've asked you all here because I want you to witness something.
"The transfer of shares in my hand is the legacy of the late Dustin Gardner.
"However, his granddaughter Aleigha Gardener is hogging all the shares and won't sign them over to us."NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
So this was their purpose.
Adrian was stunned. He turned to look at Aleigha, only to find she was as calm as usual.
He suddenly realized that she had seen that coming.
"Things are getting interesting." Aubrie leaned on Darien and looked at Aleigha with a hint of coldness in her eyes.
She couldn't even cover the pride on her face.
Some people knew Aleigha and looked at her.
"Miss Gardner, shouldn't you defend yourself?"
Aleigha held back her smile and let go of Adrian's hand, slowly walking forward.
Adrian followed her. The hall was completely silent, and everyone was watching them.
Jodie had a smug look on her face. As Aleigha got closer to her, a vicious smile flashed across her face.
"My grandfather didn't even know you when he was alive. Why would he give you guys his shares?
"You took that from me, didn't you?
"It is left by my grandfather. So what?
"You can take it, because it's not true."
"Impossible!" Jodie blurted out. As soon as she said that, she knew that she made a terrible mistake.
Her rebuttal proved that Aleigha was not lying.
"Impossible? I have a witness. I've been waiting for you to make a move.
"You guys really went to a lot of trouble to get to me.
"Jodie, Kasey Hull is your elder sister, right? I know her."
Jodie was so angry that she gritted her teeth and looked at Gerald for help.
"Miss Gardner, what proof do you have that it's not true? It's signed by your grandfather.
"We can authenticate the signature."
Gerald was an old fox. Jodie might be cruel and merciless, but she was not smart.
"Really? Well, to be fair, I'd like Mr. Landry to have this signature authenticated.
"Also, I'll have Kasey Hull come here."
Aleigha knew that Darien and Aubrie wouldn't help her. They'd even kick her when she was down.
Everyone knew that there was a contradiction between the Landry family and the Xiao family. Adrian was on her side, so he couldn't stand up for her.
Only Lennon could do it.
"But he's an outsider. How could you ask him to deal with it?" Jodie hurriedly said.
"It is because he is an outsider that he will deal with the matter fairly.
"Are you guys scared?"
As soon as Aleigha finished
speaking Freddie pushed the door open and walked in. Kasey, who had been missing for a few days, was with him.
Gerald's face changed when he saw Kasey. He glanced at Jodie and then looked at Aleigha.
Sh*t! The girl was ready for this.
As soon as Kasey saw her sister and brother-in-law, she lowered her head in a hurry.
She took their money and then betrayed them.
"Mr. and Mrs. Gates, if you want, I'll have my lawyer come here now.
"Don't worry, I'm not taking sides."

Of course, Lennon would not help Aleigha.
"Well, I don't think it's necessary. Gerald, you really surprised me.
"I can't believe you had the nerve to go against the Woods family. You think I'm dead?"
Jaidyn burst out of the crowd. No one knew when he came in.
Even Aleigha and Adrian looked at each other with confusion.
Seeing Jaidyn, Gerald's eyes were full of doubts. He muttered in his heart, "What the hell is he?"
He sounded really arrogant.
Not many people here knew Jaidyn. Even Aubrie had only heard his voice.
As soon as he spoke, Aubrie immediately recognized him. She stood quietly on the spot, not daring to move.
The voice sounded familiar to Gerald, but he was still not sure who this guy was.
"You don't know me? Empire Group makes you a lot of money, doesn't it? Should I stop working with you?
"After all, you're gonna have all the shares of the Gardner family, and you'll be fine without me." Everyone knew Empire Group.
It had an influence not only in this city, but also abroad. The point was, it was a mysterious group.
Even Adrian would like to work with this company. He was one of the few people who knew that Jaidyn was the president.
Gerald wouldn't have thought that this guy was Jaidyn.
His face immediately turned green and red. Jodie still didn't know what was happening.
She thought Jaidyn was just a young man, so she didn't care about him at all.
"Who are you?"
Gerald's face darkened. Raising his hand, he slapped Jodie in the face and said, "Shut up."
He realized that things were going to be out of control.
He never imagined that his greed would lead to so much trouble.
What was worse, he had no idea why Jaidyn suddenly came here. It caught him off guard.
