He shook his head while remembering those lines he had read in the past, "Women sure are creatures that are hard to deal with." And Bella’s just proves those lines.
Sigh!
"Okay, one percent..." Jack gave another number, but Bella still ignored him. He quietly vented his frustration in his mind.
"My friend, Bella... This is my final offer to you. One and a half percent, take it or leave it!" He said firmly.
The corners of her lips lifted, revealing a charming, icy smile; however, her smile gradually vanished before saying,
"Jack, please don’t sulk like that. Do you know that my shares are the smallest among us? Also, I’m the only one with children." Bella’s shoulders slumped. "Inflation makes me have to work hard to earn money. You know about that, right?"
Jack, "..."
’What the hell!? Now, she uses little Dax to sway me?’ Jack can’t believe what he hears. He tries to shut his mind. He doesn’t want to listen to her words, or else he will suffer a heavy loss this time.
"I just need to earn money for my child’s better future. And did you forget that you are my son’s godfather!?" She said while pretending to wipe away the traces of fake tears.
Jack, "..."
This woman succeeded in convincing him. He gives in.
After Jack took another fresh air to fill his stuffy chest, he stated, "One and a half percent and one house in this city. This is my final offer, Bella. I will not add anything..."
Bella smiles at him, "Your condo near Central Park, New York..."
Jack attempted to speak but could not form words, settling for a nod to show his agreement with her demand.
A spring-like smile crosses Bella’s beautiful face as she clasps her hand happily.
"Deal!!" she stood from her seat and offered him a handshake. "Happy to make a deal with you, Mr. Foster!"
Jack, "...."
She left him and walked to her desk. "Alright, let’s go to the meeting room now. They are now waiting for us to discuss this matter..."
Suddently Bella feels in a good mood. She took her iPad and left her office with Jack, heading to the meeting room. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Meanwhile,
Leo sat in the meeting room with four people from Quantum Capital’s legal team and Stellar Entertainment. Daniel Sullivan, the Director of the Legal Department, leads the legal team. He worked for the RDF group a few years ago; however, Jack sent him here last year to help the company.
Daniel Sullivan and his team already know about corruption in the company. Bella met him in person a few days ago.
Today was the day they would decide what legal action to take and which Board of Directors to remove from the company.
