Chapter 303: Chapter 303: The Clown is Myself

Mrs. Turner helplessly shook her head in response to Mrs. Turner’s question, saying, "Regarding the company’s matters, my husband barely tells me anything. It’s quite good that he sold his shares."

She smiled, "Now he has time to play golf, and my husband doesn’t need to worry about the future development of Dale Group anymore. It’s quite good."

Mrs. Turner and the other two ladies looked at each other after hearing this.

Mrs. Turner said with a smile, "That’s true. It’s better to worry less about company matters and enjoy life more."

Claire nodded and replied with a smile, "Yes, selling the shares is good."

Mrs. Turner’s expression flickered subtly as they continued to play cards and talk about other matters,

They played a few rounds and were about to finish. Claire had won quite a bit today, and she said with a smile, "I’m really lucky today. Let’s arrange another game when we’re free."

After seeing all the guests out, Mrs. Turner hurried to the study to find her husband.

According to Claire, selling the shares was a good thing.

In the study.

Mrs. Turner furrowed her brows, "Honey, the Moore Family and a few others have sold their company shares. I don’t think it’s just because they have conflicts with Julia Land. It must be because the company’s development isn’t great, right?"

Shareholder Turner had the same suspicion.

Especially since there was a recent fire incident involving the company’s products due to quality issues, he felt that holding onto the company’s shares would carry great risks and losses.

After giving it serious thought, he stood up, "I’m going to change and head to the company to see Director Land."

He too decided to sell his shares!

Shareholder Turner quickly changed and went to Dale Group to find Julia Land.

Tyler Hughes was in charge of receiving Shareholder Turner.

He politely said, "The chairman is currently in a meeting. Mr. Turner, would you like to keep waiting, or reschedule?"

Shareholder Turner smiled, "I’ll sit here and wait for her."

Tyler nodded. He made a cup of coffee for Shareholder Turner and returned to his seat.

He then sent a message to Michael Scott about Shareholder Turner coming to see the boss.

*

After the meeting ended, Julia Land closed her laptop.

Michael Scott bent slightly, his voice lowered, "Shareholder Turner is here."

Julia Land raised her eyebrows and nodded, carrying her laptop as she walked out of the meeting room.

Shareholder Turner had been waiting for over an hour before finally seeing Julia Land.

As Julia Land exited the elevator and saw Shareholder Turner sitting in the waiting area on the sofa, she walked over with a smile, "Mr. Turner, I apologize for making you wait so long."

Shareholder Turner stood up, and they shook hands. He said with a smile, "It’s me who came here on short notice, sorry for the disturbance."

Julia Land invited Shareholder Turner into her office to talk.

After closing the door, the two sat down on the sofa.

Shareholder Turner got straight to the point, "Director Land, I need capital for another investment recently, so I’ve decided to sell my company shares."

Julia Land smiled, as both understood this was merely a pretext.

Shareholder Turner did not explicitly say that he was very concerned about the company’s future operations.

Julia giggled and asked, "Mr. Turner, you hold eight percent of the company’s shares, correct?"

Shareholder Turner nodded.

Julia Land wanted to buy Shareholder Turner’s shares, but she currently lacked the necessary liquid funds, "Mr. Turner, please wait a moment."

She took out her phone and called James Thompson.

She didn’t have the money to buy, but Mr. Thompson could.

The call was quickly answered and James’s voice came through, "Little Julia, what’s up?"

Julia Land glanced at Shareholder Turner and spoke into the phone, "Shareholder Turner wants to sell his eight percent of company shares. Mr. Thompson, are you interested in buying these shares?"

James looked at his watch, "Give me half an hour. I’ll see you at the company."

Julia’s lips curled up slightly, and she responded with an affirmative.

She hung up the phone and explained to Shareholder Turner, "Mr. Turner, someone will come to buy your shares soon. Please wait for about half an hour."

Shareholder Turner smiled, "Thank you."

About half an hour later, James Thompson arrived at Dale Group punctually.

Dressed in casual wear, he walked into Julia Land’s office.

Julia Land’s first glance was at his haircut.

The two exchanged a look.

Shareholder Turner was startled to see it was James Thompson. He paused for a moment.

Why would he be the one to buy?

James Thompson nodded at Shareholder Turner calmly, "Mr. Turner, hello, I am very interested in the shares you hold."

Shareholder Turner did not expect James Thompson to buy his shares, "Mr. Thompson, it’s a pleasure to meet you."

Neither side wasted any more time and quickly entered the discussion of the stock purchase.

Following their discussion, they successfully reached an agreement.

James Thompson agreed to purchase Shareholder Turner’s shares at market price.

And Shareholder Turner was also very satisfied with the outcome.

After signing the share purchase contract, Shareholder Turner smiled, "Thank you, Mr. Thompson, Director Land, I hope the company’s future developments go smoothly."

Julia Land escorted Shareholder Turner out of the office; then she turned around and smiled at James Thompson.

James Thompson raised an eyebrow, "Is he afraid the company won’t do well?"

Julia Land nodded, "Right?"

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so eager to sell his shares.

James Thompson chuckled lightly, "I guess I picked up a bargain; he might regret it so much he can’t sleep later."

Julia Land nodded confidently, "I’m very glad that you have such trust in me."

She walked up to James Thompson, cupped his face with both hands, examining left and right, "This hairstyle looks good; I should cut it like this for you next time."

James Thompson gave a mysteriously pleased smile, "Okay."

He wouldn’t give her a next time to cut his hair, for as soon as his hair grew, he’d promptly get it cut.

Julia Land, unaware of James Thompson’s actual thoughts, noted that lunchtime was nearing and turned to the man, "Mr. Thompson, would you like to join me for lunch?"

James Thompson nodded; he took out his phone and called Jasper Winters to book a vegetarian meal in advance.

The two left the office and drove to the restaurant.

After lunch, Julia Land mentioned to James Thompson that she’d have to attend to Connor Bell’s estate proceedings at the law office at three o’clock.

James Thompson contemplated for a moment, then turned his head to Julia Land, "I’m guessing, among Mr. Bell’s heirs, you must be included. If that’s the case, would you prefer to inherit it or renounce it?"

Julia Land initially didn’t want to inherit the Bell Family estate, but today’s incident with Shareholder Turner made her reconsider.

At the moment, she truly had no liquid funds.

She pursed her lips, gazing mournfully, "I’m out of money."

James Thompson was stunned; he did not expect to hear this reply.

Perhaps Mr. Thompson’s surprise was too obvious, so Julia Land rolled her eyes, looked up at the ceiling, and explained, "We still need to set up a missing persons company, which requires a lot of money."

James Thompson understood Julia Land’s intentions, chuckled in a raspy voice, pinched her face, "Don’t overthink it. If you don’t want to inherit, don’t. The funding needed for the search for the daughter—I have it covered, and there’s no need to worry, I’m not a pauper."

Julia Land rubbed the cheek that James Thompson had tugged, curiously asking, "How much wealth do you have?"

James Thompson pulled out his phone and searched a global authoritative rich list website.

He pointed to an English name with his index finger, "This is me."

Julia Land saw the ranking, "...I’m sorry, the clown turned out to be me."

With Mr. Thompson’s financial backing, Julia Land decided against inheriting the Bell Family property, to avoid too much entanglement with Madame Bell.

Plus, she was just short on liquid funds for the time being; she had great confidence in the Dale Group.

The two left the restaurant, and after James Thompson dropped Julia Land back at the company, he went straight home.

Around two in the afternoon, Julia Land set off for the law office.

When she arrived, Madame Bell and Maxwell Bell were already there.

Madame Bell wore an elegant light-colored cheongsam, looking dignified and graceful as she watched Julia Land.

She gave Julia Land a gentle smile.

Julia Land was very puzzled inside—Madame Bell actually smiled at her??

Although puzzled inside, her face remained cool as she walked over and sat down.

Seeing that all the relevant parties had arrived, Lawyer Feng took out the will and began the formal reading.
