Chapter 17 Two Requests
Chapter 17 Two Requests
Right after asking him, Emily’s face turned red.
During this period of time, Andrew had been sleeping on the sofa. Although he had married Emily,
Andrew went to serve as an army after that, so both of them had never slept in the same room.
Andrew was a man. He also had men's normal physiological needs, especially when he had a beautiful
and sexy wife like Emily, who didn't want something to happen.
However, he was a soldier, and he knew that he couldn't do that now. Before Emily fell in love with him,
he would not do anything beyond the boundary.
So he swallowed his saliva and said, “Okay. I’ll sleep here.”
Emily frowned and snorted, she said unhappily, “Whatever.”
Then she closed the door, she leaned against the door and stomped her feet in anger.
This was so embarrassed. She was rejected unexpectedly by wanting Andrew to come to sleep inside
the room.
Emily looked at the paved floor and she stomped on it again.
Although she was going to let Andrew come in and sleep inside the room, it was not like what Andrew
thought. She would have just let Andrew sleep on the floor.
Emily was lying on the bed and she kept tossing and turning around on the bed. She couldn’t fall
asleep.
When she finally fell asleep, suddenly there was a knock on the door from outside.
“Emily, your grandfather, uncle and cousin are here.”
“What?” Emily got up in a hurry.
Before she could wash up, she saw her grandfather, uncle and cousin sitting on the sofa.
As soon as they saw Emily, Brian said with a smile, “Emily, are you sleeping?”
“Grandfather, uncle, Mario!” Emily greeted all of them and looked at Andrew in the end.
Andrew’s face still looked calm. He didn’t show any expressions on his face.
Emily sat beside Andrew, Brian directly said, “Emily, you are well-aware of the situation in our family
now. I hope you don’t hold a grudge against me for what I have done to you in the past.”
“Grandfather, how can I hold a grudge against you? You are my elderly and I am your grandchild, I
should respect you.” Emily answered.
Brian nodded and said, “It’s the best if you think like that. Although you’ve made the deal by yourself, I
was being inconsiderate to let your cousin to follow up on behalf of you. However, I do it for Martin
family's sake as it is better to sign the contract as soon as possible. Who knows that they might break
their promises? Emily, how about this, as long as you promise to go to sign the contract, I will satisfy
anything that you want, as long as I can.”
Without waiting for Emily to speak, Andrew said, “Sure, Emily would like to have 51% of the shares of
D.K. Group.”
Brian was stunned by Andrew’s words instantly.
If she wanted 51% of shares of D.K. Group, it meant that she wanted to control the Martin family.
Emily also looked at Andrew in shock.
In fact, she never thought of taking the shares.
Andrew added, “Besides that, in a few more days, it’s going to be Emily’s birthday, the Martin family
should hold a lively birthday party for Emily. You must invite all the famous and rich families of K City to
the party to show that you are sincere in apologizing to Emily.”
Brian Martin, Eden Martin, Mario Martin, Emily Clark and Rosa Martin were dumbfounded.
They didn't expect that Andrew would make such request.
Even Brian himself did not dare to invite all the famous and rich families in K City to his birthday party,
let alone to Emily’s birthday party.
Brian stared at Emily in shock and then looked at Andrew and asked, “Emily, is it what you want?”
Andrew raised his hand and embraced Emily, he said, “Yes, this is what Emily wants.”
“Let Emily say it by herself, you are just a son-in-law who married into the family, how can you talk so
much?” Eden glared at Andrew.
Brian looked at Emily who didn’t speak, he asked again, “Emily, is this what you want?”
“Ah”, Emily looked at Andrew again. Andrew nodded firmly, it seemed like he was telling Emily to
believe in him.
Emily hesitated for a while and then nodded and said, “What Andrew said is what I want.”
Brian took a deep breath and stared at Andrew angrily. As for Andrew, he just looked back at Brian
without a flinch.
Eden and Mario looked at Emily with resentment on their faces.
Brian didn't know why he saw a pair of fierce, murder-eyes from Andrew’s eyes. These eyes were the
eyes which had experienced the battlefield for a long time. He had seen such eyes, but they were the
eyes of a general. It was hard for him to believe that he saw the same thing in Andrew’s eyes.
He did not dare to look directly at this kind of eyes, finally, he gave in.
He said unwillingly, “I can promise you for the second request which is to hold a birthday party for Emily
and invite all the famous and rich families to attend the birthday party. However, for the first request, I
can’t give 51% of the shares of D.K. Group to Emily.”
Andrew said directly, “It doesn't matter if you don't agree with the first request, we won't sign the
contract. I can take Emily and Rosa and leave the Martin family, I will support them.”
Emily felt surprised. Andrew’s words had gone overboard.
Although he had a job now, but he was just working as a waiter now, he only got a few thousand a
month. Even if he worked two jobs, he might not even have enough money to rent a house. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
However, she did not say anything. At this moment, she chose to believe in Andrew.
Brian knew very well that if they couldn’t get the contract signed, as soon as Emily left the Martin family,
the Martin family would be finished too.
If the Martin family was finished, what should his family do and where should they go?
After signing the contract, their family would surely become rich and successful again, even if they only
held 49% of the shares, their condition would definitely be better than how they were now.
He clenched his teeth and pondered for a long time. Finally, he nodded helplessly and said, “Alright, I
promise you.”
“Great, first, let's prepare for Emily’s birthday. As soon as her birthday is over, Emily will sign the
contract with Ray Fraser immediately.”
“Good!” Brian got up and strode out.
After walking out from Emily’s home, Brian became dejected. He had been doing business for many
years and he had never been as embarrassed as he was today. In the past, he only needed a stare to
frighten people, but today, he failed.
He was defeated by a son-in-law who married into the family.
“Grandfather, why do you agree to his unreasonable request? In this way, the D.K. Group will belong to
the Clark family. Emily will become the major shareholder and we as the Martin family will not have any
right to speak in the group anymore.”
“Yes. Dad, have we made a wrong decision on this matter?”
“What do you guys know? If we don't sign the contract, we may not be able to live. There’s only one
ending for us, bankruptcy.”
“Grandfather, we can cooperate with President Hudson's company! Didn’t we discuss about it before
this?”
“Do you think that I do not consider about it? But now Hudson Group is different from before. They
have a lot of problems recently.” Brian shook his head and sighed, “Recently, there’s an important
person who came to K City and he is aiming the West family. Hudson Group is invested by the West
family.”
“I'm thinking for the life of everyone in our family!” Andrew shook his hand and strode away.
On the other side, after Eden and Mario left, Emily was relieved and she asked Andrew in surprise,
“Andrew, why did you make such a request? Aren’t we going a little too far?”
Andrew said with a smile, “No, it's not too much at all. The shares are yours anyway. This company is
given to them by your father. After signing the contract, the company’s share value will grow 100 times
of the original value. You are already kind enough to leave them 49% of the shares.”
Emily wanted to say something in the beginning but now she was speechless.
