Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy by Inked Snow Chapter 1706
Jim narrowed his eyes and hung up the phone with a thud. Then, he leaned against his seat as he panted.
The Landry and Quinn families had already been bound together for a while, and he could not possibly untie those bonds after just a day of taking over.
The company that had run into trouble was the Quinn Group, not the Landry Group, yet while he was busy reviving and fixing the two corporations, the Quinn family was plotting how to take over the authority to the two companies!
Jim slammed his fists against his desk in anger, gritting his teeth.
In the past, Jim used to think Malcolm was cruel, but he finally knew whose genes Malcolm had inherited.
“Vice President Landry.” All of a sudden, the secretary knocked and entered his office. “We’ve already invited Cheryl’s parents to the VIP room, but the two of them appear to be psychologically unstable… Do you want to go over and take a look?”
Jim let out an exhale, stood up, and followed the secretary into the VIP room.
The floor was covered in shards of porcelain.
Cheryl’s parents were smashing the porcelain tableware onto the ground as they shrieked, “What are you planning to do, inviting us here?”
“Let me tell you this; don’t you dare think you can buy us out with money. All we want is for Luna to get the punishment she deserves!”
“We’ll never use our daughter’s life in exchange for money!”
The first thing Jim heard were the sounds of Mr. and Mrs. Martin’s screams.
He furrowed his eyes and entered the room, smiling. “Sir, Madam, I know you’re not here for the money.”
Seeing that the person who had arrived was none other than Luna’s brother, a hint of hostility flashed across Mr. and Mrs. Martin’s faces. “Were you the one who had asked these people to bring us here? What are you trying to do?”
“I should be the one to ask you this.” Jim let out a sigh, walked over, and stood in front of them. “Since you’re not here for the money and instead just here to demand justice for your daughter, then you should go to the police station to find out more details about what had happened and maybe even start investigating yourself.
“By coming here to cause a scene at our office building, were you somehow hoping that the spectators and people watching online will help you crack the case?”
Mr. and Mrs. Martin exchanged a glance, then lifted their heads to stare at Jim in anger. “We just want people to see your true colors! We—”
“One million dollars.” Jim narrowed his eyes. “I’ll offer you one million dollars, and in exchange, you’ll never come to Landry Group Tower to cause a scene anymore. How does that sound?
“I’m not going to interfere in your search for the truth, and if evidence proves that Luna was indeed the murderer, you can still press charges.
“This one million dollars is just some pension money for the two of you.”
Seeing that Jim had offered them money, Mr. and Mrs. Martin exchanged a glance.
Finally, Mr. Martin let out a cough and said, “We can agree to your terms, but…”
He extended five fingers at Jim.
Jim narrowed his eyes. “Five million dollars? Well, that’s not entirely impossible…”
“No.” Mr. Martin sneered. “Five hundred million dollars.
“The people at the PR firm told us that what we did today had caused significant financial losses to Landry Group, so if you offer us any amount less than five hundred million, we’ll continue to make a scene.”
Jim sucked in a deep breath and clenched his fists next to him.
Granny Quinn was showing no mercy at all!
