Chapter 421 Acquisition of The Evans Corporation (3)
As soon as James finished speaking, he immediately realized.
If even he could think of these things, how could someone as meticulous as a long-time lawyer not think of them?
Michael must have thought of these things and continued to investigate, discovering that John was related to the incident involving Michael's father years ago.
James didn't ask too thoroughly because, given his relationship with Jessica, Michael wouldn't tell him everything.
But thinking of Jessica, he couldn't help but ask, "Then tell me, to what extent are you planning to deal with John? Or rather, how much is John related to your father's death back then?"
As long as he knew the extent of the relationship, he could at least speculate on how Michael planned to deal with John.
Michael replied word by word, "You know, I won't tell you anything. If you want to help Jessica, go ahead. But what I do is my business."
James's heart tightened, his gaze sharp, "But now I already know it's you behind the scenes against John. How can you expect me to stay out of it? John is the person Jessica cares about most in this world; nothing can happen to him."
Michael nodded and said, "Then let's see if you can protect John."
James shuddered; from Michael's eyes, he saw intense killing intent.
He knew in his heart that the hatred between Michael and John was no small matter.
On one side was his wife; on the other, his brother; how should he choose?
James pondered for a long time but ultimately couldn't bring himself to break ties with his long-time good friend.
He looked deeply at Michael, sighed, and said, "For my sake, please don't be too harsh on John. Take care of yourself; I'm leaving."
With that, he left Michael's office.
Michael's eyes gradually turned cold. After witnessing his father's tragic death, he had lived his life solely for revenge.
Anyone related to his father's death would not be spared.
After returning to the company, James did not have Sean release the funds immediately.
Instead, he ordered, "Have the legal department draft an acquisition agreement immediately. I want to formally acquire The Evans Corporation."
Sean was shocked and quickly said, "What? Do you want to acquire The Evans Corporation? Mr. Kelly, The Evans Corporation is currently three million dollars in debt. If you acquire it so rashly, the shareholders won't agree."
James knew very well what impact acquiring such a company would have on him.
Those shareholders would probably say he had lost his mind.
But now, he couldn't care about that.
He just hoped that Michael would show some leniency towards The Evans Corporation for his sake.
So, he said to Sean unhappily, "Why do you care so much? Just do as I say!"
Sean didn't dare to say more and silently went to carry out James's orders.
However, when John heard that The Kelly Corporation's condition for releasing the funds was for him to sign the acquisition agreement, he was immediately furious.
After all, no one wants the company they built from scratch to become a subsidiary under someone else's control.
Especially when that person is James.
Does this mean he would have to bow and scrape to James, who bullied Jessica, in the future?
No, he couldn't do it!
Despite Sean's best efforts, he couldn't get John to agree to sign the agreement.
