Chapter 852 Changing Heirs
"What should we do now, Dad?" Jane asked. "Go to Jason and ask him about this. Make sure that he doesn't allow this to happen. He has contributed so much to the Murray Group. He can't let Selena take advantage of his hard work," Bradley replied.
Jane quickly dried her tears before she got herself changed. Then, she rushed to Murray Group and asked for Jason, but she was told to wait in his office as he was in a meeting. Jason knitted his brows when he saw that Jane had dropped by to see him. "What are you doing here?" he asked.
Jane felt hurt whenever she saw the look on Jason's face. Regardless of how well the others may treat me because of their ulterior motives, Jason has never once changed the way that he looks at me. He always has that same look of disdain when he sees me. Well, that's the least of my troubles right now. "I heard that your grandfather is writing his will, Jason. Is that true?" she asked.
Jason sat down by his desk as he spoke. "Why have you been asking around about such rumors? What has this got to do with you, anyway?"
"Of course it has got something to do with me. We're about to get married, and I'm about to become your wife, so it's only natural for me to care about such things." Jane walked toward him. "So, what percentage of the shares are you going to get?"
His gaze turned even colder than before as he lifted his head to glare at her. "What exactly are you trying to ask me?"
"I... I'm just asking you a casual question. That's all," she muttered.
"Alright. I'll tell you the truth, then. My grandfather has already completed his will, and he's going to leave 30% of the shares for me. The remaining 70% will go to my cousin, Selena." Jane widened her eyes. "You're only getting 30%?"
"That's right," he replied.
That means that Murray Group is about to change hands, she thought. "Why? How could this be? You worked so hard for Murray Group, and this company should belong to you. You should speak up for yourself in front of your grandfather, Jason. He can't do this to you!" she cried.
However, Jason didn't seem bothered by the news at all. "I am wholly supportive of my grandfather's actions. I've been working for the company ever since I was 18, and I don't like my life now as it's just too tiring. I'd prefer to travel around the world. I'm going to start with my traveling plans once Selena takes over the company."
Jane was aware of the fact that Jason enjoyed traveling. She recalled how he had once gone on a long hike in Astoria, and how his trip had been extended after he got badly injured during the hike. His injury was also the reason that they had such a huge delay in their engagement plans. "Aren't you going to fight for the ownership of the Murray Group, Jason?"
He shook his head. "It belongs to our family anyway. It's no big deal to me. Moreover, Selena's husband is Pierre, and Pierre's grandfather is Admiral Evan Moody. Their involvement would hugely benefit the company, and I'm not about to go against this decision since it's going to help with the company's development."
Jane found herself speechless after she heard what Jason said.
"What is it? Have you stopped loving me because I'm no longer the heir of the company? Didn't you once say that you love me for who I am, that you'd love me no matter what happens to me?" He gave her a provocative glare.
Any woman can say the same words to you! I said it then because I knew that nothing was going to change, that he was the only heir of the company. How could I have expected such a sudden turn of events?! I can't believe he lost his spot as the heir! Jane thought. "You're being selfish, Jason! My father's not going to allow me to get married to you if you're not the heir! You should rethink your decision!" she cried.
"I've thought about it clearly, Jane. I've never liked you from the beginning. You're a selfish and demanding woman, and you act like a spoiled princess! You're the type of woman I hate the most!" He no longer bothered to sugarcoat his words as he spoke.
"You" Her sentence was interrupted as Jason continued to speak.
"I'm just being honest. I hate the scent of your perfume, and your thick makeup disgusts me. I replace it hard to accept some of your habits as well. I prefer Eastern women over Western women like you!"
