Chapter 146: TEN FREAKING PERCENT
Chapter 146: TEN FREAKING PERCENT
"Mr Philip, and Mr Roan, now that we are indeed considering the compromise for it, then let’s be honest, the bargain that I have in my hands is a pretty big deal. Also, the mental exhaustion that your family has caused me was also a lot. So, you must already know that the end of the bargain is also going to be pretty big. Don’t you?"
There was a moment of silence, as the atmosphere turned back serious. And after a second, Philip’s lips stretched into a small smile and he nodded his head, "Yes, Dove... I see that."
And though, he said that there was hesistancy in his voice.
Now the main issue with it was that, what did she want? Philip had an idea with no doubts that whatever it was going to be, it was going to be some thing of a big amount.
And all they needed was to hear it from her lips.
One second passed.
Two seconds passed.
"I wouldn’t release the information to the public, but in return I need ten percent of Davis’ Enterprise’s shares." And Dove did not waste much time and directly said, for what everyone were patiently waiting for.
"..." And what followed her words was a pin drop silence.
No one talked, and after a while, Philip’s and Roan’s eyes widened in disbelief.
"What?!" Philip gasped in shock. "Ten percent!!"
He stood up from the couch, where he had just sat a few minutes ago, and the way he had calmed a while ago dissipated into thin air, and pointing his fingers at her he yelled, "Dove! Do you even know what you are asking for?! Ten percent? Ten god damn percent!!"
Dove nodded her head innocently as if it was the most natural thing to do, and she said with a small shrug of her shoulders, "Yes, only ten percent, Mr Philip. No more!"
"Do you think ten percent is a small amount!" He scoffed. "I have twenty five percent and Roan himself has fifteen percent! What makes you think that I will give you a whole ten percent! And by that, making you another large shareholder!"
Dove smiled at him, and shook her head, "Of course, I know that ten percent isn’t a small amount, Mr Philip. And isn’t that why I am asking you for it?
Also, what makes me ask that huge thing, you say? Well this proof that I have in my hands. Why? Mr Philip don’t you think that your companies reputation is worth that small amount of shares? Thinking of it, the details that are here, if I just released it, other companies whom you have crossed they are going to get to you really bad, huh." Dove said raising her phone casually.
Roan saw his father shaking in anger. He turned towards Dove and said, "Miss Dove! You are blackmailing us unfairly!"
Dove turned her attention towards Roan, and raised her eyebrows ever so slightly. And chuckled. Oh, so he knew how to talk in the presence of his father?
She then giggled and said, "Since, when did blackmailing become a fair game, Mr Roan. And did you only get to know now that I am black mailing you? Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. You are surely very slow in your head, Mr Roan."
And on hearing this, Roan’s face turned red as a beet! What made him even more embarrassed was that Dante did not even bother to cover his chuckle, and laughed in a low voice.
That damn of a bodyguard! How dare he laugh at him! Roan cursed him in his heart. For some reasons, from the moment he had entered the mansion, he specially did not like that man! At all.
His eyes met his fathers, and saw him glare holes though him. His eyes as if saying, ’You good for nothing idiot. Can’t even present your words properly!’
Philip then noticed Senior Sterling, who was sitting very quietly, as turned towards him at once and said, "Senior Sterling, look at your granddaughter! What she is asking is too much! Please say something to her." He asked desperately.
"..." Dove for a split of second looked at Philip dumbly. Why was this almost sixty years old man complaining to my grandfather like a kid! Does he have no sense of shame?!
Senior Sterling looked towards him, and slowly shook his head and said, "I apologise, Philip. But I have already handed over everything related to business to my granddaughter. She is capable. And whatever she decides to do, I believe is in good grace of the company."
Senior Sterling’s answer too left Philip and the other in speechlessness. Of course, they knew that. Of course, they knew that whatever she was doing was in good grace of the company!! Her company but not theirs!
But from his words it was quite clear, that he was very much siding with Dove, and had no near intentions to get involved in whatever Philip wanted to do.
And on this realisation, Philip couldn’t do anything but gritt his teeth in anger.
And then they heard Dove’s voice again, "Mr Philip, weren’t we discussing about the bargain? So why are you now complaining like a kid to my grandpa? It doesn’t really suit your age so much, to be honest.
Moreover, just minutes ago, did you not just say me that the Davis’ Enterprises is ready to compromise anything with me, in return of the information not going out? So what’s the matter? Going back on your words already?"
The Davis’ looked at each other. They were torn about what to do. Just then, Dove said again, "Well, in that case, if it makes you feel good, then if you accept that, and I technically be the owner of a part of your company, then may be we can resume the deals, that Sterling Corporations had pulled out of it."
The room stunned into silence, and then shrugging, Dove leaged forward to get a glass of water that was on the table, and taking a sip, she said as a matter of fact, "This is the end of my bargain, if you want it then accept it. And if you don’t, then this information is mine. And I can use it anyway I like, you don’t have any say."
