Chapter 124: The Return of an Old Acquaintance
The Carter family coveted her shares, as did Robert. She was caught between a rock and a hard place. However, the Carter Group couldn’t act swiftly since those shares would only be accessible when she turned twenty-five.
What they needed to do now was to win Ella’s favor completely.
"By the way, some of the small shareholders of Davis Group have agreed to transfer their shares to me. I will transfer them to you," Eric said with a casual smile, sipping his wine. He would go to any lengths to support Ella.
"Thank you!" Ella responded.
"We’re an old married couple; there’s no need for such formalities," Eric said with a mischievous grin, causing Ella to blush. Did he really have to be so affectionate in front of his friends?
Brian and Jacob exchanged glances and smiled.
"Little cousin, you really need to cherish Eric. It’s the first time I’ve seen him treat a woman so well. If you weren’t my cousin, I’d definitely pursue you just to annoy Eric! Haha!" Brian laughed mischievously, and Eric gave him a hard kick under the table.
The private room filled with harmonious laughter...
At this moment, Brianna was on the phone with a private detective. The detective informed her that although Robert’s behavior had been suspicious lately, he had managed to avoid being tracked.
Having been followed before, Robert was no fool; he knew how to evade surveillance.
Brianna hung up the phone, her face filled with anger.
