Chapter 393 Probably a vegetable for the rest of his life
Angela stayed up almost all night.
After Greyson had gone to the hospital, she had wanted to go back to her room and give Denise or Sean a brief update on the current situation, so that they could check out who was behind the bodyguards and prevent others from turning on James in advance.
But before she went back to her room, her mobile phone was taken by the bouncers and they asked her not to lock the door at night, saying they were afraid she would escape.
Angela tossed and turned until dawn, still not half asleep, but instead the bodyguard knocked on the door and handed her the phone.
“Mr. Greyson’s phone.”
Angela picked up her phone and looked at the time to see that it was eight in the morning.
“Miss. Angela better answer the phone now if you don’t want your brother to find out anything and get him involved. And remember to put it on speakerphone.” The bouncer said.
This life of being watched all the time, of having to follow someone else’s instructions every step of the way, almost drove Angela crazy.
But there was nothing at all she could do but put up with it!
Angela frowned and put it on speakerphone, “Brother, what’s wrong?”
“Dad didn’t wake up. The doctor said it’s probably a vegetable for the rest of his life.” Greyson’s voice was full of pain.
Angela froze for a moment and just felt her ears buzzing.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
First Mom committed suicide, then her sister-in-law broke her arm, and now Dad is a vegetable …… All of this because someone was trying to screw her and James.
If she hadn’t liked James in the first place and hadn’t pestered to be with him, wouldn’t things have turned out the way they did?
“Come down to the office, I’ve got the lawyer here and he’ll split Dad’s shares equally between the two of us. I’ll be waiting for you at the office.” Greyson continued.
Angela frowned and was just about to speak when he hung up the phone.
She called again and no one answered.
What is brother doing here?
“You go out while I change.” Angela tossed her phone aside and looked up at the bouncer.
The bouncer didn’t move.
Angela suppressed her anger and asked through clenched teeth, “What, you’re going to stand guard even when I’m changing?”
“I can turn my back.” The bouncer finished and turned around, looking like he had absolutely no intention of going out.
Angela clenched her fists and stared at him for a moment, sulking as she changed her clothes under the covers and got up to go downstairs.
“Does Miss. Angela want breakfast or do you want to go straight to the office? If you want breakfast, I can order someone to get it.” The bodyguard followed her, not showing any change of mood from her cold face.
Angela didn’t even look back and sneered, “I dare not bother you, or I’m afraid I won’t even know how I’ll die.”
“You are still useful, we cannot kill you.”
“Oh, so I have you guys to thank for that?” Angela sneered and turned the corner into the kitchen.
She had something on her mind and had no appetite at all, but she was pregnant and she had to think of the baby if not herself.
Angela had made some porridge and was almost finished when Luna came down. She was pulling her son in her left hand, while her daughter, who was on one side, could only tug at her empty sleeve.
Angela, who already had little appetite, couldn’t drink the little half bowl of porridge left at the sight of this.
“Why are you only drinking porridge and not eating something else?” Luna looked guilty for a few moments, still feeling sorry for framing James.
“I’m full.” Angela didn’t even know how to face Luna, “I have things to do, I’m going out first.”
She stood up, grabbed her coat and headed out.
Luna called after her, “Angela, Ela called you, then what? Did you promise her something when she took those two away?”
“No. Ela’s just as good with her mouth as she is with her mouth, nothing strong, and when Mrs. Jo Harvey stepped in, she was so scared she called the people back.” Angela lowered her eyes and collected the emotions under them.
She’s already cost her sister-in-law an arm, she can’t drag her down with her again!
Luna looked at her back and gave a complicated look as she hmmed, “Then you take care.”
Angela is obviously just clogging her up with an excuse, but …… forgives her for being selfish, she can’t gamble with her two children.
Angela turned her head, smiled at her, said nothing and went out to the car.
The car stops in front of the Chante Group.
Angela got out of the car and went into the office and heard several employees talking about –
“I heard that Mr. Chante has become a vegetable, so is the company all under Mr. Greyson’s control? Can a rich, uneducated kid like him manage it?”
“Maybe in a few years he’ll have lost the Chante Group. I don’t think much of him anyway and am already ready to jump ship!”
“You guys are too negative too! Who’s backing up Mr. Greyson now? It’s Grandpa Thompson! Have you heard of the Linying Group? It’s now backed by the Chante Group!”
“If you want to jump ship, you can do it, but Mary and I are not going to! With Harvey Group and Linying Group as our backers, how can Chante Group collapse?”
One of the employees tilted his head and just saw Angela, and hurriedly poked some of his companions, signalling them to stop.
“Hello Miss. Angela.” Several people greeted in low voices, afraid that Angela would find them in trouble.
But Angela just nodded at them and left.
Angela got off the lift and made her way to Mr. Chante’s tailor’s office. She raised her hand to knock on the door and stopped again, “You have to follow our Chante Group’s private business?”
“We’re just there in case you say anything you shouldn’t, and as for anything else we hear, we won’t say anything to the public.” The bodyguard said respectfully.
Angela clenched her fist, withdrew her gaze, knocked on the door, got an answer and walked in, a few bodyguards following her.
Greyson is sitting in his office next to a couple of lawyers, Violet, and a few executives from the firm.
“Sign this.” Greyson stood up and pushed the equity transfer over to Angela, handing her another pen.
Angela just looked at the papers and shoved them back into his hands, “You can have these shares, I don’t want them.”
She’s at Ela’s mercy in every way and doesn’t know what the future holds yet, so it’s better to leave that to him.
“Sign it when you’re told to, what’s the big deal?” Greyson’s face was irritated as he shoved the pen and papers into her hand, “Sign it, I have a lot of work to do after that.”
Angela was about to think of an excuse to refuse, when he blocked all her retreats, “A brother in law is a brother in law, you will have children later, there is more at stake. Just sign it and don’t hold me up.”
Angela took the paper and lifted her eyes to look at him, her throat tightening.
The two siblings have always been very close, and he usually likes to say, “What’s the point of making such a clear distinction between siblings?
But now, he was going to have to separate himself from her.
Angela blinked back the sourness in the corners of her eyes as she signed the document and handed it to him.
“It’s only a matter of time before the story of Dad becoming a vegetable blows up, have you figured out how to handle it? Can you handle the company?”
