Chapter 266 We Have No Choice
After Bruce left the Lawrence Group, he went straight to Lucia's apartment.
"How did you get here?" Lucia was surprised to see Bruce.
After all, during this time, they were trying their best to take the Lawrence Group, and force Zane to save Neve.
After Bruce walked in, Lucia realized something was wrong, which could be told from his expression.
Lucia frowned, stepped aside and poured a glass of water for Bruce, and handed it to Bruce who was sitting on the sofa. "What's wrong?"
Bruce held his anger on his way there. He wanted to throw it at Lucia.
But after thinking about it, he realized that Lucia was innocent.
No one expected Zane to be so crafty.
Bruce picked up the glass and drank some water, suppressing the anger that had just ignited in front of Zane. His tone was somewhat cold as he said, "Did you read it carefully when you signed the share agreement?"
When Lucia gave him the Lawrence Group shares, Bruce was naturally happy. Over the years, he tried many ways to acquire some of Lawrence Group's shares.
But Zane was a shrewd businessman. So it was hard.
So all these years, he could only think about it, but never dared to take any real action.
He dared not act until he had obtained Lucia's shares.
But he never thought the Lawrence family was so scheming.
On the surface, the shares were given to Lucia, but in fact, these shares were still in the hands of the Lawrence family's head. Only when the Lawrence family's head of household agreed would the shares belong to Lucia.
The person in power might withdraw these shares at any time.
So now Lucia had no shares in the Lawrence Group at all. After divorcing Miller, she only got some real estate and cash, nothing else.
Lucia pretended to be generous when she divorced Miller. She didn't ask Miller for other compensation, believing that Lawrence Group's shares were sufficient.
But no one thought that the shares did not belong to Lucia at all.
After Bruce told Lucia roughly about what had just happened in the Lawrence Group, Lucia was shocked.
"What did you say? These shares are not mine now? But I had already signed it. The legal apartment had confirmed it.'
Bruce glanced at Lucia indifferently, "Yeah, but you didn't read what was in it at all, did you?"
Lucia thought about it for a moment and nodded, "I didn't think much about it, but I didn't expect them to have such a trick."
Bruce snorted coldly, "How can you win the Lawrence family?"
Lucia's was also a bit embarrassed. She never thought that the Lawrence family would do this.
"Then what shall we do now? Neve is still in trouble." Lucia looked at Bruce awkwardly.
Bruce was silent for a few seconds. "Has the sentencing deadline not been postponed? You haven't made any progress here?"
"Although Yanis is in our hands, Zane will soon replace her. If he doesn't agree to help, I can't really kill her."
At Lucia's words, Bruce frowned, "But we can't just wait. We can't let Neve suffer in jail."
When Lucia thought of how Neve looked at her tearfully, her heart ached. "Then what do you think?"
Bruce picked up his glass of water and took a sip. "Since Zane wouldn't help us, let's take a gamble and see how heartless he can be!" "What do you want to do?"
Bruce hooked his fingers toward Lucia.
Lucia hesitated and moved closer to Bruce.
Bruce whispered in Lucia's ear, "Then send the video and photos to Zane, and see if he can wait any longer!"
Hearing Bruce's words, Lucia frowned, "Do you really want to do this?"
"Otherwise, Zane will not help us."
Hearing this, Lucia thought about Zane's temper. Bruce was right.
If they didn't go further, Zane wouldn't make a move.
And Neve would suffer more in jail.
Thinking of this, Lucia nodded, "I got it."
"All right, I'll go back now. Do it as soon as possible."
Lucia replied, "Okay."
[Viteto mountain district]
After Yanis returned from the town, she developed a low fever.
She had been lying in bed in a daze.
She kept dreaming about the years she had spent with Zane.
Sometimes she woke up suddenly.
She dreamed that Zane was pushed into the mountain and fell to pieces...
Then she cried, and sat up abruptly, panting heavily.
Because of the cold, her nose was blocked. She gasped for breath.
The dream felt so real that Yanis felt as if she had experienced it herself.
She knew it was all fake, but she couldn't help feeling sad.
"Yanis?"
She suddenly heard a soft voice.
Yanis looked over.
Sitting by the bed was Reed, whose skin was a bit tanned. Reed's bright eyes were filled with concern, "Are you all right?" Yanis nodded, her voice a little hoarse, "I'm okay."
Reed handed Yanis the medicine. "I always take this when I have a cold. I got better soon after taking it. Try it."
Yanis looked at the pills in Reed's hand, and smiled at her, "Okay."
She couldn't resist Reed's kindness, so she reached out and took the pills.
"Let me get you some water."
Yanis nodded, "Thank you."
Reed stood up, and looked at Yanis again. "Yanis, my name is Reed. I'm Mia's third oldest sister."
Yanis paused and then said, "Thank you, Reed."
Reed glanced at Yanis, turned, and walked out of the room.
After a while, Reed came in with a cup of warm water. She handed it to Yanis, "Take the medicine first, my mother may not be home until very late today. My big brother will prepare dinner for you tonight."
Yanis looked at Reed, "Do you know where your mother went?"
Reed shook her head, "I don't know. Take some more rest."
