Chapter 371 Show Your Certificate Then
Chapter 371 Show Your Certificate Then
At that series of questions, Randy chuckled self-deprecatingly on the other end of the line.
“I have two plans. The first one is to use the psych report I provided you with, Miss Moon, because it’s the safest strategy with the highest chance of success. I would naturally go with the first plan. As for the second, I have a plan in place as well, but I’ve always hesitated over executing it. Now that we’re at a time like this, if I don’t do it, we’ll be left with nothing, so we might as well take a gamble.”
“What’s your plan? Could you explain it?”
As Sierra said that, Randy started explaining over the phone.
“My second plan is simple, but extremely risky. We need to be as swift as possible to succeed, without wasting a single minute. The only trouble I have on my end is I couldn’t find a buyer willing to take the risk.”
Randy began outlining his strategy.
“From the moment Robert disappeared a year ago, I’ve been putting this plan in motion. I wasn’t sure if Robert was going to come back, and if I ended up waiting enough to see news of his death, this plan of mine can begin in earnest. If we can’t inherit this vast inheritance honestly, then we’ll just have to transfer it. It’s risky, and we would have to run away once the transfer is complete and lay low somewhere, or else we would suffer the legal consequences.”
Sierra mostly understood what Randy meant, but she didn’t know the details. How were they supposed to execute the plan? So she asked Randy.
“How far have your preparations come? How can I help you from my side?”
“I’ve forged a fake contract where Robert transferred me a portion of the company stocks and the stocks some of previous investors. Put all together, it should be about a couple dozen billion. I can’t
make it too obvious. I transferred about 5% of the stocks of the companies that are worth more in secret. It doesn’t look too evident, so we have to find a buyer right away and wash our hands of these stocks. I could never find a suitable buyer. As for what you’re planning, Miss Moon, I’m sure you’ve considered a buyer as well. If you can get a buyer to snatch up these properties quickly enough, we’ll split it halfway. What do you think?”
Sierra was dubious.
“You planned this all on your own, but you’re willing to give me half just for finding a buyer. To be honest, I don’t believe you.”
“It’s shameful to talk about. I know that my reputation would be ruined completely if word got out. Before I’ve been exposed, I’d like to stay hidden. So, I want a middleman to help me sell the stocks. If I was the seller, there’d be a higher chance of falling under suspicion, and it’d be more dangerous. As for wealth, some people think the world is not enough, but to me, an extra zero or two doesn’t make much difference at the billion level. I just want to hurry up and get this out of my hands.”
At a time like this, if it had been the regular Sierra, she wouldn’t have considered it at all, and probably wouldn’t have been too willing to believe it either.
But she was at the end of her rope, and couldn’t guarantee that she and Jayson could catch someone close to Georgia.
Georgia wasn’t a simpleton. She’d definitely send a lot of bodyguards to protect herself and those around her.
Randy’s plan deserved consideration. It might even be their only way out.
Without trying it, Sierra couldn’t rest easy.
They were faced with failure anyway. Might as well try to see if they could succeed in this situation.
“I understand what you’re saying. My side needs to prepare. I’ll notify you soon.”
After Sierra hung up, Randy turned to Robert beside him and smiled.
“She should have taken the bait. Either tomorrow or the day after, she’ll definitely get in contract. Then I can take these documents to trade with her. By that time, when they take these stocks to the underground market to barter, whoever’s behind them will show themselves.”
Robert smiled at Randy.
“I’ve been troubling you by asking you to be a double agent all this while.”
“Why, it’s no trouble at all. You said it yourself. If I get this done, you’ll give me 1% of the shares, which means I can live the rest of my life in peace. Why wouldn’t I do this?”
Randy chuckled. On Sierra’s side, she called Jayson and told him about it right away. Jayson, though, was skeptical.
“This might be fake. When you see him, take a look at the stock documentation and I’ll have my lawyers judge their authenticity. If there aren’t any issues, we can sell. Never mind how much he’s faked about them. So long as well can sell them on the black market, we can leave when the bubble bursts. This sort of problem isn’t worth our concern.”
Sierra soon understood what Jayson meant. That was, they still had to talk with Randy and see if the sale was possible.
If it was, then who cared why Randy had done it?
They didn’t have any other way out, anyway, so that was settled.
When Georgia woke up the next morning, she looked at the comments online again.
Seeing everybody still mock her for getting booted out the door, Georgia couldn’t help but post a comment of her own with her verified account.
“You think the news that Anaya liked was real, but are you aware that even Anaya doesn’t know who the person her cousin really married is?”
Those words made great waves, and everyone’s reading comprehension skills were tested.
“Is Georgia just babbling or does she mean something?”
“From what I can tell, she means that Sierra and Robert aren’t married, and that she’s Robert’s legitimate wife. Did I read it right?”
“That can’t be, Robert and Sierra had a wedding date set, and getting a marriage certificate beforehand isn’t anything that strange. How could Robert get a marriage certificate made with an ex like Georgia? The way I see it, this woman is trying to change the subject with this sort of vague language. She got the boot and now she doesn’t want to admit it, so she’s throwing up a smokescreen.”
“What’s real is real and what’s fake is fake. If you’ve got it, then show that marriage certificate of yours. What good is yapping about it going to do you here?”
“Yeah, if you’re implying you’re married to Robert, then show the certificate. Saying all that here just means you won’t admit you lost!”
And so a hashtag discussion began.
#ShowYourCertificateThen# Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
A lot of people left mocking comments under the tag.
Laughing at Georgia for trying to stick with the lie.
Laughing at Georgia for being so shameless as to claim Robert was married to her, treating everyone online like idiots.
Many of them made memes of it full of mocking words.
#Where’s your certificate?#
#I’m married because I say I’m married#
#What’s a marriage certificate, I have no idea#
As the internet frothed, Georgia finally released a slow, casual livestream at noon.
“Everyone’s telling me to show my certificate, and the way I see it, it’s best to show the real thing rather than say it.”
Georgia showed the little packet right there in the stream.
“You can go and check with civil services if I’m really married to Robert. You’re welcome to it, in fact. I hope you would all refrain from telling me I faked the certificate, because that’s just meaningless, isn’t it?”
Georgia ended the stream with all smiles, and the internet was stunned.
