I've Been There Before

Chapter 250 Are You Begging Me?

The phone rang.

When the phone rang in the office, it broke the strange atmosphere in the office.

The thin man casually glanced at the phone screen on his desk and said, “Do you mind?”

Looking up, he swept across the man sitting opposite, who was also outstanding.

Although it was an inquiry, it was clear that no matter whether the person sitting opposite him minded it or not, he didn’t care that much.

Without waiting for him to express his stance, he had already picked up the phone on the table and went through to the phone.

Ingemar pressed the dial button, and when the screen showed that he was connected, he silently handed the phone that was already in a state of conversation to Grace, who was reaching towards him.

Grace trembled slightly, and without saying a word, her eyes turned red.

On the other end of the phone. In the president’s office of the Shaw Group, the man hadn’t heard anything on the phone for a long time. Normally, he would be impatient and cut off the call directly.

This time, however, he held it near his ear even though it was still silent.

However, there was a strange feeling. This phone call could not be hung up.

Half a minute passed.

“Let the James Group go.”

On the phone, the woman stubbornly said four words.

When this voice sounded, the man behind the desk was overjoyed. It made this cold man suddenly be active.

But soon, the joy dissipated, leaving behind a deep thought.

He suddenly smiled and said calmly.

“Are you begging me, or are you asking me?”

The meaning had a huge difference.

On the other end of the phone, Grace stubbornly pursed her lips. In her life, she had “begged” him too much. It was only three years. The peace of Erhai Lake almost made her forget who Caden was and who she was.

She mockingly looked at the well-dressed lady, who was watching her anxiously at this moment.

She was even more nervous than her.

She looked down and tightly pursed her lips, feeling incomparably ironic.

She wanted to pull herself out of all these whirlpools, but every time she thought that she would finally be able to escape, she would fiercely fall in again.

They all robbed of her most precious possessions, ignoring her pain and hurting her badly.

“Please …” Her throat was unusually sore. She frowned and looked down, “What if I begged you or asked you?”

On the other side of the phone, the man smiled complacently.

“If you beg me,” he smiled and said briskly, “I have the right to refuse.”

“So, do you refuse?” she asked.

“Grace, please plead with President Shaw. We can’t let the James fall apart.” Mrs. James looked so anxious.

Ingemar stared at her angrily, and Mrs. James took half a step back in fear.

Caden was not surprised to hear Mrs. James’s voice. Ever since Grace asked him to let the Jameses go, he had already predicted that someone from the James family would go beg Grace.

Mrs. James was in Yunnan.

There were so many blighters between them. Thinking of this, Caden glanced at the person sitting opposite him, and he snorted arrogantly and coldly.

When he dealt with the woman on the phone, he immediately felt relaxed and became warmer.

“In what capacity do you beg me?”

Grace hesitated, “Friend.” Eventually, she made it.

The man did not look angry. He said gently and decidedly, “Sorry, I can’t agree to you.” He refused without hesitation and said resolutely.

Grace looked terrible. She predicted that he might refuse, but she did not expect that this person would not even consider it. He refused mercilessly and did not show any mercy.

The man sighed and hypocritically explained,

“Grace, you should also know that although I am the president of the Shaw Group, there is a board of directors above.

It was the decision of the entire board of directors to merge the James Group.

No matter how destitute the James Group is now, it is still a huge asset. In such a big case, it will not be proper that I let go of such a large amount of assets just because my friend plead for mercy. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

It doesn’t make sense for money. And I can’t explain to the board of directors just because my friend plead for mercy.

Grace, you’re a businessman yourself.

You said we were friends, so you wouldn’t make things difficult for me, would you? “

Ingemar was very close to Grace. His ears were excellent, and he could hear Caden’s voice clearly on the phone.

He became serious.

Who were you kidding?

The Shaw Group’s board of directors?

If the Shaw Group’s board of directors could play a decision-making role, the Shaw Group would no longer be in Caden’s hands.

The current members of the board of directors of the Shaws were all in trouble.

He had full authority to inject capital, almost diluting the shares of the other directors of the board. To be able to kindly let go of those old men on the board of directors, Caden was already considered as not so bad.

Due to the board of directors?

He couldn’t explain to the board of directors.

Nonsense.

In the office of the president of the Shaw Group, the man gently closed his eyes … It was his opportunity. He couldn’t be too ruthless. Who would be his wife if he scared this woman away?

“Of course, if you’re forcing me to let the James Group go,” he paused, “then I can’t refuse.”

“However, the only person who can make a request to me is my wife.”

Grace fiercely pinched the phone in her hand angrily. Wouldn’t he still let her go and let each other go?

She was very angry and in chaos.

After a long time, she finally calmed herself. “This time, how would you like me to amuse you? Three years after three years, is it another three years?” She looked down and asked indifferently. No one knew her pain.

On the other side, the man was holding the phone tightly. He felt pain, but he pretended to be relaxed. He smiled and said unconcernedly,

“Yeah, another three years, shouldn’t you?”

He was going to be entangled with her for a lifetime. Three years? How was that enough?

He just coaxed her. If he scared her away again, where did he get her?

The woman said, “If possible, I don’t want to beg you for the rest of my life!” She was very angry.

The call came to an abrupt halt.
