Chapter 1708
Renee's rare praise of Jovan made him feel uneasy, and he shrugged.” Don't say
that. Briar and I are the same kind of people-we'll do whatever it takes to get
what we want. So... she and I are now allies, and I'm happy we are." "You're
stubborn, Jovan. I was wrong about you." Renee was angry at Jovan for deciding
to work with Briar. She didn't want to talk to Briar either, so she stood up and
clumsily made her way out.
Jovan didn't go after her or explain-he just let her sulk, thinking badly of him.
Briar crossed her arms and watched as Renee staggered and nearly fell several
times as she walked away. Then, she turned and said to Jovan, "I thought you
were a passionate person, but I guess you aren't that nice either since you didn't
go comfort her or help her when she almost fell. I finally understand why she
refuses to let Stefan go even though you've tried your best to win her over; if it
were me, I would have chosen Stefan too."
Jovan glared at Briar. "Don't talk about things you don't understand. Do you really
think we're friends?" "No, I don't flatter myself like that." Hostility gleamed in
Briar's eyes as she sneered, "We're just exchanging profit-you have something I
want, and I have something you want. We are the same, and we're willing to get
our hands dirty to get what we want." "I'm glad you realize it." Jovan nodded and
looked at the sky, then said finally, "So, can I check my goods now?" "You've got
to show me your sincerity first." Briar was very cautious, and didn't want to suffer
any losses.
Jovan frowned and hesitated briefly. "I've not gained a firm foothold in Hunt
Enterprise yet. I'm just the company's acting president, so I still need to hold a
board meeting for votes if I want to make a decision." "So, I still can't see your
sincerity then?" Briar raised her brows. "I can wait.
After all, you're not in a hurry, so why should I be?" "How about this? I'll transfer
five percent of my shares of Hunt Enterprise to you. I'm sure that shows enough
sincerity on my part.” Jovan owned twenty percent of the shares of Hunt
Enterprise, and was one of the largest shareholders alongside Stefan, Stefan's
father, and Timothy. If he transferred five percent of his shares to Briar, he
wouldn't be the fourth largest shareholder anymore, and would have less power
in Hunt Enterprise as well as Beach City. It was the greatest sincerity he could
show.
Briar sneered in disdain. "You want to bribe me with a mere five percent of the
shares? Am I that worthless to you? Plus, I don't want money. I would have led a
worry-free life as the wife of Stefan's brother if I wanted money. Why would I go
through so much trouble?"
