Chapter 326 Money Again
In the president’s office.
Shirley sat in the leather chair with a strong aura and a calm expression.
She looked at Cecelia, who sat opposite her, and asked directly, “You’ve been waiting for me for
days. What do you want?”
“Do you need to ask? I want to take back the shares that belong to me.”
Cecelia expressed her thoughts bluntly.
Shirley shrugged. “I have no objection to it. I can transfer your shares back to you…!
“No, no, you misunderstood.”
Cecelia pushed up her glasses. There was a shrewd look in her eyes. “We both know what a mess
Korita Group is in now. I don’t want my shares back. I want money.”
Shirley smiled and took a sip of coffee. “Interesting. I don’t quite understand. What mess is Korita
Group in so you want out?”
“You tell me.”
Cecelia was full of resentment and said disdainfully, “Korita Group has been losing money for years, but
you still insist on building the R&D and production centers. It will only make Korita Group
suffer more losses…
“Besides, yesterday, everyone knew that you and Braden, the president of the Stewart Group, are not on
good terms. You crossed the boss of the Stewart Group. Will he spare you?
“The most irritating thing is that even my brother quit. If I stay, I will be the biggest fool!”
When Shirley heard the woman’s scolding, she didn’t get angry. She nodded, “What you said is
reasonable. This is indeed a tricky problem that can’t be avoided.”
Cecelia twisted her lip and continued proudly, “I heard that you got a sum of money and helped my
brother pay
off the debts he owed to the bank. You’re capable, after all. Since you’re so kind, pay my debts too. If you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcan get tens of billions, it should be easy for you to pay my debts.”
Shirley sneered. “As the third largest shareholder of Korita Group, you transferred a total of 21% of the
company’s shares. How much do you want me to pay you?”
“Back then, I invested 800 million into this company. It has been operating for more than four years.
Since we have worked together for so many years, I’ll be fair. Let’s suppose the money has
1/4
quadrupled. You should give me 3.2 billion in totall”
“Huh!”
Get Bonut
Shirley couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “Ms. Parker, you’re asking for too much. No one can guarantee
you’ll certainly make money in an investment. As you said, Korita Group has been losing money these
years, but you’re asking me to pay you four times as much. Do you take me for a
fool?”
“I don’t care. I already transferred the shares to you. You must give me 3.2 billion in cash. Otherwise, I
will come to make trouble every day and let this company collapse faster!”
Cecelia didn’t care about dignity and acted like a rogue who wanted money.
She had no choice. First, her father pressured her to transfer the shares to Shirley. She couldn’t get
them back.
Second, even if she didn’t transfer the shares, they were useless, and she’d suffer a heavy loss.
Then why not take advantage of this chance and make a good profit?
After all, Shirley was quite capable. She could even get tens of billions. Billions must be nothing to
her.
“Call me shameless, but I have no choice. My father prefers sons. He has made clear that Ewan
will take over our family business. I can’t get any benefits from the Parker Group, so I can only ask
you for compensation. After all, this matter was caused by you!”
Cecelia said, showing no sense of shame.
This was her last gamble, or she would have nothing!
Shirley was silent for a while. Then she exhaled and said resignedly, “You are right. This matter was
indeed caused by me. You are innocent. Now, I will give you two choices…”
“Two choices?”
“Your first choice is to stay in Korita Group. I promise to give you no less than 21% of the company’s
shares and a year-end bonus. The second choice, I will give you 3.2 billion, but you must sign a formal
contract and willingly give up your shares. In the future, no matter Korita Group makes or loses money, it
has nothing to do with you.”
Cecelia almost did not hesitate and immediately said, “Do I need to choose? Of course, I want 3.2 billion.
Korita Group is going down. I’d be a fool to stay.
“You mentioned a year-end bonus, but whether this company still exists by the end of the year is
2/4
still a question. It’ll be lucky enough if it hasn’t gone bankrupt then!”
Cecelia was extremely sarcastic, having no faith in the company at all.
After all, she had worked for it for four years, but it didn’t prosper. The competition between peers
got fiercer every year. It was really too difficult to make a comeback!
“Understood!”
Shirley raised her eyebrows and said to Cecelia, “Sign this share transfer contract. I’ll ask the
finance department to transfer the money to you later.”
She pushed the contract to Cecelia as if she had expected this moment.
“I didn’t expect it to be so easy!”
Cecelia signed her name and stood up condescendingly. “I’m leaving, but… I believe we will meet
again soon.”
After Cecelia left the office, the personnel stood at the door, hemming and hawing.
“M-Ms. Wilson…”
Shirley looked up and asked, “What happened?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Well, I don’t know how to put it. Come out and see for yourself!”
The personnel showed a painful and awkward expression.
Shirley shook her head, got up, and walked out of the office.
A group of employees gathered in the public office area, shouting, “Compensation! Compensation!
Compensation!”
Shirley’s temples throbbed. She shouted, “Quiet down! What are you doing?”
“Ms. Wilson has finally come out!”
The man in the lead, who represented the crowd, walked up to her, and said, “Ms. Wilson, we used to
work for Mr. Parker and Ms. Parker. Now that they are gone, we will not stay. However, they promised
that they’d give us shares and dividends. We have not gotten a cent yet.
“Since you’re in charge of the company, I hope that you’ll fulfill the contract before we leave. Otherwise,
we’ll sue you!”

Anger rose in Shirley’s heart.
These people were all heartless and snobbish.
Korita Group wasn’t done yet, and they were thinking of leaving. It broke her heart!
Shirley lowered her head to calm herself before saying coldly, “If any of you wants to quit your job, go to
the personnel department to register. I will pay you a full month’s salary. As for the dividend, I’ll pay
according to the actual situation. I hope you’ll think it twice. Don’t beg me to come back
later.”
“Bah. This small company has been losing money for so many years. It should have gone bankrupt long
ago. Only idiots will come back!”
Those people rushed to the personnel department to register as if they were vying for food.
The public area formerly overcrowded now had less than ten employees, all of whom were girls
doing paperwork.
Among them was the girl wearing black-rimmed glasses. She had been waiting for Shirley to
interview her…
“Hello, Ms. Wilson. Can I work in this company?”
Shirley was surprised. She looked at the girl and asked, “Don’t you see? They are all thinking of leaving.
Why do you want to work here?”
