Meanwhile, London, England.
After the meeting was suspended for the third time, Jacob Green whispered, "Mr.Proctor"
Jameson Proctor leaned back in his seat, placed one hand on his desk, tapped his long fingers on the
desk, and spoke lightly, "They're stalling."
"Stalling?"
Jacob Green was a little confused, "But we're already here, what are they stalling for?"
Jameson Proctor narrowed his eyes and looked at his phone, which was turned off, "You go out now
and call South City to see if anything has happened."
Jacob Green nodded, "Okay."
Due to the importance of this meeting, the cell phones of the participants on both sides had to be
turned off.
Making matters worse, there was no signal around in the neighborhood.
Not long after Jacob Green left, the person in charge of the other side came back, smiling like a spring
breeze, "Sorry to keep Mr.Proctor waiting."
Jameson Proctor looked at him nonchalantly and did not say a word.
Chown took a document from his assistant and pushed it to Jameson Proctor, "I had the contract
reprinted, Mr.Proctor, take a look at it and sign it if there are no problems."
Jameson Proctor swept his eyes across it and snorted.
He then closed the folder and threw it back, saying in an indifferent tone, "Why don't you just let me gift
the Proctor Group to you directly?"
"Mr.Proctor, what are you talking about? We are both businessmen and thus we are only talking
business.Even if Mr.Proctor gifts me the Proctor Group, I can't afford to accept it."
"I don't think you've treated yourself as a human being when you make this offer."
Chown didn't get angry, as he just laughed and said, "Mr.Proctor, when we do business, we have to
see how much leverage we have apart from the ultimate profit, right?"
Jameson Proctor's black eyes narrowed slightly and his voice was cold, "How much leverage do you
have then?"
Chown said without haste, "Well..."
At this time, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Jacob Green hurriedly walked in
and whispered a few words into Jameson Proctor's ear.
In an instant, Jameson Proctor’s face sank and his cold features seemed to be covered by a layer of
frost, giving everyone chills.
Jacob Green silently stood behind him.
Chown then continued what he had not finished, "Does Mr.Proctor think that I have enough leverage to
sign this contract?"
Jameson Proctor looked at him with cold eyes, "How dare you threaten me!"
"Mr.Proctor, I'm sorry, but it's always like this in business: the greater the danger, the higher the profit; if
you don't gamble, who knows what the result will be."
Chown looked at the document thrown by Jameson Proctor and pushed it back; his smile continued,
"But after meeting Mr.Proctor today, I feel that there is still a big gap between you and my imagination.I
used to admire you, as I thought you were the kind of person who stops at nothing to achieve your
goals, or else how can you reach such a high position at such a young age? But I never thought that
you would actually make such a big sacrifice just for a woman."
Jameson Proctor did not say anything and picked up the pen in front of him.
Jacob Green was shocked and couldn't help but say, "Mr.Proctor..."
Before he could continue, Jameson Proctor had already signed his name on the contract.
Chown applauded, "Mr.Proctor finally cut to the point! How admirable!"
After the signature was done, Jameson Proctor put down the pen; his voice was flat and almost
inaudible, but with a coldness that seeped into the marrow, making people's backs chill, "You better
pray that she is safe and sound, or you will disappear from this world together with the Proctor family."
As he exited the conference room, the smile on Chown's lips gradually faded.
Chown picked the papers up from on the table.He really didn't expect Jameson Proctor to be so
forthcoming.
Should it be said that he was hopelessly stupid, or...did he have some other plan? But now his job was
done.
After getting into the car, Jacob Green said, "Mr.Proctor, what should we do now?"
Jameson Proctor said in a cold voice, "Go back home."
"So this is the end of the matter here? The content of that contract is equivalent to giving up three-fifths
of the Proctor Group's shares.If this contract falls into the hands of Master Proctor, the Proctor Group
will..."
Jameson Proctor said, "That is only if he has the ability to get this contract."
Jacob Green looked at the situation and knew that Jameson Proctor had other arrangements, so he did
not say anything else and quickly drove away.
Proctor family.
In Sharon Allyson's gaze, Jeffery Proctor slowly said, "You're right, it was the Proctor family that caused
what happened in London."
Sharon Allyson frowned, "Did you know it all along?"
Jeffery Proctor shook his head, "I was only informed of shortly after they made all the arrangements."
"What the he*l are they trying to do? Jameson Proctor is still in London right now..."
"Don't sweat it! As long as you're here, Jameson is safe"
Sharon Allyson didn't understand, "What do you mean?"
Jeffery Proctor looked out the window and was silent for a moment before continuing, "They have two
plans.”
"The first plan is to trick you into coming to the Proctor family and then use you to threaten Jameson
into agreeing to give up his shares in the Proctor family."
Sharon Allyson's frown deepened; the fact that she was here now meant that, in all likelihood, their
plan had worked.
She took a breath to maintain her sanity and composure, "What about the second plan?"
Jeffery Proctor said, "On the London side, they have been arranging for a long time.If this plan fails,
they won't let Jameson go back home"
"Wait...What does it mean by ‘won't let him go back home'?"
"Besides tricking you into coming here, they planned this dinner party tonight also to justify my
inheriting the Proctor Group, if something untoward happened to Jameson Proctor"
Sharon Allyson opened her mouth for a long time before making a sound, "By ‘they’, did you mean
those including Master Proctor?"
Jeffery Proctor withdrew his eyes, "Yes."
Sharon Allyson spoke incredulously, "He would try to kill Jameson Proctor?"
Jeffery Proctor nodded gently, "So I have no other choice but to force you to stay here for a few more
days."
Sharon Allyson didn't know what to say for a moment.
When she packed Jameson Proctor's luggage that night, she thought he was just going on an ordinary
trip like before, but she didn't expect that this trip to London would actually almost cost him his life.
Thinking of this, Sharon Allyson hurriedly said, "So he is now..."
"Don't worry, as long as their plan is accomplished, they will not make a move on Jameson.Killing him
is only an option of last resort.After all, Jameson is the president of the Proctor Group, so if something
were to happen to him in London, it would set off a huge storm."
Sharon Allyson pursed her lips, "Thank you."
Since they had made it this far, it meant that they had been driven to a dead end.So, if the plan failed
tonight, they were really going to kill Jameson Proctor.
Thank God...
Jeffery Proctor lost his smile, and said with some frustration, "As long as you do not hate me..."
