My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 48 15% Shares

In the entire Taylor family, Gloria Taylor was the only one secluded and did not have any shares.

At that time, she hoped that Loren Taylor would give her some of his shares, even if it was only 1%, but least she could feel that she was the member of the Taylor family.

However, now when she didn’t care of the share anymore, Loren Taylor was offering it to her.

She felt ridiculous.

Gloria Taylor laughed. Although Loren Taylor might have other purposes, she still asked, “How many shares does Dad intend to give me?”

Loren Taylor vaguely said, “More than your mother’s. Don’t worry. Dad will not mistreat you.”

More than Tina Walker’s? That was very few.

Since Loren Taylor came for her, why didn’t she try to bargain?

“I’m the daughter-in-law of the Clarke family now. If you really want to give me the shares, you can consider 15%. If you give too little, you will be laughed at.”

Although currently she didn’t have any share in that company, she was very clear about the distribution of the share.

Loren Taylor had 30% of shares, Anne Taylor and her brother both had 10%, and Tina Walker had 5% respectively, which added up to 55%.

The rest belonged to other shareholders.

Loren Taylor felt that it would be dangerous to give Gloria Taylor 15% of the shares.

In the next shareholders meeting, they would elect a chairman of the board of directors. If Gloria Taylor didn’t vote for him, he would most likely not become the chairman.

15% shares was not a small sum.

Loren Taylor was clear about his stake on the matter. He suppressed his anger and said, “Gloria, Dad is not stingy to you, but you’re asking too much.”

He was not stingy to her?

Gloria Taylor smiled and said, “Dad, you’re old. Don’t get angry every single time. It’s not good for your health. I’m just saying it casually. It doesn’t matter if you can’t promise to give me the shares. I can find another job anyway. I have something to do. Bye.”

What was happening with her family?

Why did Loren Taylor suddenly lure her with shares and wanted her to work at the Taylor Company? What were they planning?

On the other side, Loren Taylor was so angry that he almost dropped his phone when he hung up.

He clasped his hands behind his back and walked back and forth in his office, “She is getting tough. It’s not good!”

Anne Taylor poured him a cup of tea, “Dad, don’t be angry about a trivial matter. It’s not worth it.”

Loren Taylor was so angry that he didn’t take the tea Anne Taylor handed to him. He pointed at her and said bitterly, “You! How many times have I told you not to play in those morally corrupt places? If you

still want to have fun there, can you at least be careful? The Hall has agreed on the marriage before, but do you think they will still accept you with such shameful things spread out?"

The Taylor Company’s financial capital was in crisis. They planned to marry Anne Taylor into Hall family, so that Hall family would invest their money on them. However, after the indecent video of Anne Taylor’s leaked, they lost their hope.

Because of that, Loren Taylor was turning to Gloria Taylor.

Gloria Taylor had been married into the Clarke family for two or three months now and she was doing well. He thought that she was getting along well with Kenny Clarke. Now, he tried to lure Gloria Taylor so that he could persuade Kenny Clarke to invest his company’s money on them.

“Dad, it was Gloria’s doing. She wanted to ruin me.” Anne Taylor said, “But, I’ve already report it back.”

Loren Taylor smelt revenge. His face changed as he asked, “What have you done?”

“She ruined me. I wanted the same to happen to her. I tried to ruin her, so I led her to Zijin Club—” she said happily, but before she could finish, Loren Taylor slapped her on the face.

Slap!

It was a loud and hard slap.

Anne Taylor was badly beaten that her head swung to the side. After a while, she looked at Loren Taylor in disbelief, “Dad! Why did you hit me?”

Since childhood, Loren Taylor was rarely mad at her and he had never hit her before.

Loren Taylor was very angry just now. If Taylor Company failed to survive this time, he would have to face bankruptcy or that someone would bought his company. To his surprise, Anne Taylor played her

tricks against Gloria Taylor.

Loren Taylor loved his late ex-wife very much. He was also extremely fond of the children she left, especially Anne Taylor because she looked a lot like his ex-wife.

Loren Taylor looked at his hand and sighed deeply, “Anne, Gloria is the daughter-in-law of the Clarke family now. Before you beat a dog, you should pay attention to the owner. You should not rush to deal with her for the time being. She had been married to the Clarke and look, she survives. Perhaps, she will win Kenny Clarke’s favor in the future.”

Anne Taylor retorted unwillingly, “So what if she wins his favor? He is still a trash!”

Anne Taylor completely disagreed with Loren Taylor right now. Even if Gloria Taylor married to the Clarke, she was still nothing but an unloved child and an ugly trash.

However, she knew that Loren Taylor was still angry. She didn’t bring up this matter again.

“Even though Kenny Clarke is a trash, he is the young master of the Clarke family. He is the rightful heir of the Clarke and now, we are short in capital fund. If Gloria can help us persuade Kenny Clarke for a sum of money, our problem will be solved.”

Anne Taylor was convinced. She thought that he was reasonable, “Let her ask Kenny Clarke for the money.”

Loren Taylor remembered his phone call just now. His face sank. He snorted coldly and said, “I think she’s getting tough now. How dare she hang up my call and ask for 15% shares from me!"

“Give it to her then!” Anne Taylor was dismissive, “Don’t you want her to work for the company? When the time comes, we can find a chance to let her give back the shares.”

Loren Taylor listened to her words. He was lost in thought and finally smiled, “My baby daughter is so smart! Did I hurt you just now? I’m sorry.”

“Dad, I’m fine.”

***

No matter how Gloria Taylor thought, she couldn't figure out Loren Taylor's purpose was to want her to ask for investment from Kenny.

Today, she had scheduled interview at the Shengding Company. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Before leaving, she received a phone call from Loren Taylor again.

“Gloria, I have considered your request. I promise to give you 15% shares in the Taylor Company. When will you come to the company?”

Gloria Taylor was puzzled. He really promised to give her the shares.

Loren Taylor wanted her to work for the company, but it was even stranger that he really promised to give her the shares.

Did she want it? Was she going to take it?

15% shares were more than Anne Taylor’s. Could she agree on this?

There must be something fishy about it, but she was not afraid.

“I will start to work after you transfer the shares to me.”
