<strong>Chapter 1478: 1478. Fail to preserve one’s integrity in one’ste years</strong>
What about the shares he sold…
His legs suddenly went weak, and he hurriedly sent someone to investigate the current state of the Hall n’s stocks he had dumped.
Even though he had braced himself, the findings still left William Hall dumbfounded.
There weren’t many Hall n shares circting in the market, yet all the shares he had offloaded were purchased by one single individual.
Although that person wasn’t Harry Hall, William felt deeply unsettled.
He couldn’t shake the feeling that this person was either Harry himself or someone authorized by Harry.
Regardless of whether it was Harry or not, this person was now thergest shareholder of the Hall n, while William, with no shares left, wondered how much longer he could remain within the n.
The more William thought about it, the more panicked he became. Over the phone, hemanded, “Immediately purchase all the scattered Hall n shares on the market for me. Buy as much as you can.”
After hanging up, his hands and feet didn’t seem to know what to do.
He no longer had enough time to liquidate those plots ofnd. The top priority now was to buy back the Hall n’s shares as quickly as possible.
First, he had to secure his standing within the Hall n, and only then could he slowly settle scores with Harry Hall.
On the second-floor corridor, Harry Hall coldly watched William pacing back and forth with visible anxiety, the corners of his lips curling into a frosty smile.
At this point, did he think Harry would still grant him a chance to step into the Hall n again?
Anta Baker Mountain Area.
Adam Jones set down the tablet in his hands, his lips curling into a subtle smile.
Elly Campbell noticed and curiously asked, “Something good happened?”
Adam chuckled lightly, pulling her into his arms and positioning her to sit on hisp, saying:
“What I’d consider a good thing is for you to give me another daughter.”
His deliberately lowered voice carried a touch of hoarseness, the warm breath brushing her ear causing the tips of Elly’s ears to flush red without her realizing.
She raised her elbow and firmly jabbed it into his chest. “Talk seriously.”
Ind Master Jones’s face briefly showed a hint of grievance.
To him, wasn’t having another daughter serious business?
Nheless, thoughts ofining remained internal; otherwise, his wife would undoubtedly disdain him.
Switching gears, Adam dered seriously:
“William Hall is about to be kicked out of the Hall n.”
“So soon?”
Although she knew Harry Hall had been making moves recently, Elly hadn’t expected things to progress this quickly.
They had been in Anta for only half a month, and during this short time frame, she wondered if there had been other developments.
Adam could see the surprise and curiosity in Elly’s eyes. After a brief pause, he summarized:
“William Hall was too impatient.”
Had he not been so hasty, considering how long he had been entrenched within the Hall n, ousting him wouldn’t have been an easy feat for Harry Hall.
Elly also grasped the key issue here, and she couldn’t help but feel a touch of schadenfreude:
“Does this count as William Hall tarnishing his reputation in the end?”
As one of Boston’s four major family heads, he could have lived a life of glory. But for the sake of a mistress and an illegitimate son, he tore apart the rtionship with his own son to the point of mutually assured destruction.
In the end, William was simply too greedy.
If he had handed over his shares to Leo Hall, even if half of them were destined for Harry Hall, it wouldn’t have caused this fallout. Harry wouldn’t have demanded them either.
Originally peaceful coexistence, but he insisted on going after Harry Hall—and now he was reaping what he sowed.
Thinking along these lines, she nced at Adam Jones, breaking into augh.
“What are youughing about?”
“I was just thinking, if you, President Jones, ever lost your dignity for the sake of one of your admirers, what would happen next?”
