Sheridan concealed his intentions, but Christina wasn’t a fool. Although Sheridan had just made me a
generous offer, that doesn’t change the fact that he’s a businessman. He won’t give up on twenty
million worth of shares to please a friend. After all, he’s not a man who will act impulsively at will.
“Mr. Stone, due to the circumstances of our relationship, I think we ought to maintain a distance from
each other to avoid letting others take advantage of us.” Christina then put on a serious expression and
added, “Tell me what your motive is.”
“I’m just trying to prove that although Yerck and Nigel are from the Stone family, that doesn’t change my
relationship with you.” Sheridan had a poker face that prevented others from knowing if he was telling
the
truth.
Christina was skeptical, but she couldn’t give up on the chance to acquire the shares. “Here’s my offer,
Mr. Stone. I’ll pay you the amount you paid for the shares and top up another five million. If you’re okay
with that, we can sign a contract right away.”
“If you feel bad about it, perhaps you should just pay me the exact amount I paid for the shares.
Instead of topping up the amount, why don’t you return me a favor by buying me a meal? I’m easily
contented, but there are things that I might insist on.” Sheridan smiled faintly and added, “After all,
people always long for things they can’t get their hands on.”
Christina ignored the ambiguous words and went straight to the point by saying, “I’ll get my secretary to
draft the contract, then.”
With that, she called her secretary through the internal line and told her to draft the contract before
bringing it into her office.
While they were waiting. Sheridan tried to engage in small talk with Christina, but she merely gave him
blithe replies.
Soon, the contract was delivered to Christina. However, Sebastian was the one who delivered it to her.
Sheridan’s smile stiffened when he saw Sebastian. “Have you been poached. Mr. Taggart? Weren’t you
working for Mr. Hadley as his secretary?”
“You’ve misunderstood, Mr. Stone. Mrs. Hadley had just taken over Gibson Corporation, so she might
have trouble going through work. Hence, I’m currently her assistant,” Sebastian answered politely.
Upon hearing that, Sheridan smiled meaningfully and stated, “I see. Still, I know how capable you are.
Mr. Taggart. You have the ability to help others achieve success. If you ever wish to work elsewhere,
feel free to contact me. I’m in need of someone as incredible as you, Mr. Taggart.”
Before Sebastian could answer, Christina reprimanded Sheridan jokingly, “Mr. Taggart is my assistant
now, Mr. Stone. Are you trying to poach my assistant right under my nose? That’s rather inappropriate,
no?”
In response, Sheridan said, “Oh, I’m sorry. It’s just that I urgently need an assistant to lessen my
burden, and Mr. Taggart here is an excellent candidate. Christina, don’t we have a good relationship?
Would you really hold a grudge against me?”
Christina signed the contract and pushed it toward him in a friendly manner. “You’ve just solved a
problem for me, Mr. Stone. Why would I hold a grudge against you? Perhaps we can even work
together in the future. I wouldn’t let something as trivial as that ruin our relationship.”
Sheridan quickly signed the contract and lifted his gaze toward Christina. “I feel more at ease now. If
you need anything in the future, ring me up.”
“I still have work to attend to, so I can’t continue chatting with you, Mr. Stone. I’ll treat you to a meal
soon.” Christina smiled cordially.
Sheridan rose to his feet and replied, “I’ll wait for your call.”
Christina turned toward Sebastian and instructed, “Mr. Taggart, please walk Mr. Stone out.”
Sebastian nodded and sent Sheridan out.
Before Sheridan entered his car, he gave Sebastian his business card and said, “I think you and I hit it
off right from the start, Mr. Taggart. If possible, let’s meet and have a conversation privately.”
“Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Stone. However, I’m not resigning anytime soon. Goodbye, Mr.
Stone,” Sebastian uttered in a formal tone.
Obviously, Sheridan knew it wouldn’t be easy to poach Nathaniel’s staff. If it were easy, his assistants
would have been poached long ago. Yet, I like a challenge as I need loyal employees around me.
“It’s okay. My offer to you stands valid for a long time. Even if we don’t end up working together, we can
still be friends.”“”
With that, Sheridan got into his car.
Sebastian watched the car leave and threw Sheridan’s business car into the bin without even taking a
look at it before going back into Gibson Corporation. Countless people had tried to poach me, and they
would all offer me dozens of times more than what Mr. Hadley is paying me. These people were rich
and ambitious, but they could never have Mr. Hadley’s domineering, regal demeanor.
Sheridan’s good mood was dampened when he returned to his company to see Yerek waiting for him.
Upon dismissing the secretary, Sheridan walked into the lounge without any expression and sat down.
“Why are you here all of a sudden, Mr. Gibson? Is there something important you want to talk to me
about?”
Yerek was eager to tell Sheridan his plan, so he didn’t notice Sheridan’s aloofness. “Sheridan, I’m
actually here to tell you about something important.”
Sheridan furrowed his brows but kept his displeasure to himself. “Are you here for Gibson
Corporation’s shares?”
“That’s right. The Gibson family has gone too far. I don’t mind giving them back their assets, but they
took revenge on us by going after a company that belongs to me and my dad. I have no choice but to
return the favor. You’re now one of the shareholders in Gibson Corporation, so I was hoping you could
help us make life difficult for Christina. That would help our company massively,” Yerek replied
straightforwardly.
Sheridan took a sip of the coffee his secretary had served him and asked sarcastically. “May I know
who are you to order me around?”
Yerek froze momentarily before letting out a dry chuckle. “Grandpa had already met up with me and my
dad. He told us he would acknowledge my dad. Therefore, we’ll be family in the future.”
“That’s Grandpa’s decision, and it has nothing to do with me. Thus, I don’t need to accept it. I’m still in
charge of the Stone family, so my decision is the only one that matters,” Sheridan sneered.
Yerek’s expression changed slightly. “Even if you don’t want to treat me as family, you’ll still help me out
as a friend, right?”
In response, Sheridan answered curtly, “Oh! You reminded me of something. Mr. Gibson. When are
your planning to pay me the money you owe me?”
Yerek was puzzled. “What money?” he blurted. I have so much debt to pay, and those debt collectors
pester me daily. I don’t remember owing Sheridan any money!
“When you sold Gibson Corporation’s shares for twenty million to me back then, you borrowed a few
million from me, didn’t you?”
