In the Lap of Luxury

Chapter 617 Selling Shares

"Amirate is at the top of its game, and its stock is worth a lot of money, you know that.

"As long as I sell it at a high price, I'll have money!"

"Gentlemen, please give me some time!"

The men looked at each other. They decided to believe Samuel.

"I'll give you one day. If you can't pay, then you're dead!"

The crowd of men moved off. The secretary hurriedly closed the door.

"Mr. Walker, were you telling the truth? Those are Amirate's shares!"

Samuel sat on the floor and looked down.

There was the sharp smell of urine, and he turned red with embarrassment.

"What do you think? Do you think that I'd be able to go back to Amirate now? Grace wants my life even more than those people!"

Samuel was thinking clearly.

"What about Jessica?"

"I can't reach her…"

"Bitch!"

They were at Summitview Manor.

"The moment Mr. Walker was released, all the shares for Amirate were put on sale," Luke reported. "Ten percent in total."

Grace didn't even look at it. "Buy them all."

"He's asking for a very high price."

"How would he pay the loan sharks if he didn't ask for a high price?" Grace smiled. "Our Mr. Walker is getting old. Let's not make him worry about finances."

"Understood."

Everything was done very quickly, and the next day, the contract was signed. Samuel saw the name at the bottom and gritted his teeth.

"Grace is buying my shares?"

Luke stood opposite him with a differential expression on his face.

"At the moment, Ms. Lewis is the only one who's able to afford this price. She said that after you leave Amirate, you should keep your eyes open. Don't dabble in real estate again."

He was openly mocking Samuel!

Samuel glared at him. In his anger, he grabbed the contract and was about to tear it to pieces when Luke stopped him.

"If you tear that up, there won't be a second copy."

He stopped. In the end, he did not tear it up.

Samuel fell back in his seat. After a moment, as if resigned to his fate, he picked up the pen and signed his name.

When he was done, he suddenly burst into laughter.

"I've always been smart, and I climbed my way up step by step to the position of director at Amirate.

"Who would've thought that I would end up losing to a young woman? What a joke! It's laughable!"

Luke took the contract back.

A voice suddenly rang out. "You didn't lose to me. You lost to your own greed."

A woman walked in, her high heels clicking. She walked over to Samuel step by step.

"Grace? You're safe…"

Grace wore a shawl and looked lazily at him. "Of course I'm safe. You, on the other hand, don't look so good!"

Samuel slammed his fist on the table and stood up angrily.

"You planned this! You were out to get me from the start!"

"You must be joking, Mr. Walker. You lied to me about an internal spy and made me return to Amirate with you.

"As a result, I almost died at the hands of Brodie and the rest of that gang. Who's the culprit here?"

Grace spoke calmly, but there was an oppressive note in her voice. A chill ran down Samuel's spine.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"It wasn't me. I didn't plan it. I really didn't know…"

"They brought me to the construction site that you invested in. What do you have to say about that?"

"Coincidence! It's a coincidence! After all, that was the closest place to the gala!"

"Was it? However, Jessica has already admitted that you both planned this together."

Samuel's eyes widened immediately.

"What? How dare she betray me? I never gave her up, even when I was locked up in the police station! She betrayed me!"

There was silence. Grace stared at him and smiled suddenly. "I lied. We haven't found Jessica yet. You just gave yourself up, didn't you?"

Samuel was in shock. "You tricked me."

"Yep. It worked pretty well."
