“Hmph, you crafty, conniving man!”
Renee could not even guess what Haze was scheming right now and she was no longer in the mood to skirt around the subject so she told him point-blank “Just tell me what you want. If it’s something that’s within my power then I’ll try my best to do anything you like.”
“Marry me!” Haze half-joked with a faint smile.
“Don’t even dream about it!” Renee refused without even thinking.
It was not the first time the guy made such a shamelessly preposterous proposal to her and it was certainly not the first time she refused him. As time passed such a gesture no longer affected her. The only thought that crossed her mind now was that Haze was deliberately looking for a chance to get beaten up.
“I just knew that you’d say no” Haze clutched his chest as if Renee’s answer had deeply wounded him.
“If you keep on acting crazy like that” Renee warned him coldly her fists tightly clenched “then I’m not going to hold back any longer. Tell me exactly what you want to do and get straight to the point this time!”
“Okay okay! Jeez I get it you scary tigress…”
The playful look on Haze’s face then disappeared only to be replaced by a serious one as he told her “I want twenty percent of the shares of Azure Group.”
“What?!” Renee roared so angrily that she almost lost her voice. Her delicate face turned vicious and she ferociously added “Twenty percent?! Do you know what owning twenty percent of the shares means? It means you’ll be the biggest shareholder besides me! If you have the audacity to ask for that then why don’t you just snatch the company away from me?!”
“Hey don’t get too agitated. You’re so angry that you’re messing up your pretty face now. Come on take a sip of the wine and calm down…”
Haze then calmly picked up a tall wine glass and poured Renee a glass of wine before handing it to her. He smiled and continued “I’m not planning to take it for free. You know that my family is so rich that we don’t know what to do with our money and Azure Group just happens to be short of money… So if you agree I’ll gladly pay a price five times higher than the current market value to acquire the twenty percent. I’ll never force you into something that will make you lose money.”
“Oh” Renee’s expression softened slightly once she heard what Haze had just said. “So you’re not just taking it for free! Why didn’t you tell me that earlier? I thought you wanted the twenty percent shares in exchange for the rights to the land!”
“Do I look like such a greedy pig to you?”
“Absolutely!” Renee replied without hesitation.
At the very least she knew that Haze’s family the Baldwins had amassed their immense wealth by force and extortion from the beginning so as the sole heir to the family it would not be a surprise that Haze would inherit their penchant for that kind of brutality.
Haze was speechless. He coughed gently and said “Really madam. You wound me. Don’t you have any trust in me at all?”
“So” he continued pressing Renee for an answer. “Do you accept these terms? Are you willing to let me be the second largest shareholder of Azure Group?”
“It sounds like the Baldwin family is indeed very generous” Renee replied lucidly as she took a sip of the wine “and I can’t think of a reason to refuse the offer except… I know there’s no free lunch in this
world. I feel like I’m biting off much more than I can chew here so I’ll have to pass!”
