Chapter 439
Laura spoke with concern on her face, “Listen, Agnes, I suggest you sell your 20% stock in Starlight International Group shares as soon as you can if the company goes belly up, your shares will be worth jack, and you might even end up in debt. I’m just looking out for you, I’m willing to help you sell it, even if it means owing someone a favor. I know you’re not short on cash, and even if you can’t rely on the Whitfield family in the future, you’ll still have a worry free te
Agnes responded coldly, “Ms. Laura, save your breath. I won’t sell my stocks. Since you’ve sold yours and made a fortune, why are you selling this house?
Laura’s face changed, “The money I got from selling those stocks isn’t enough to cover the debts, Agnes. You probably have no idea how much debt your father has accumulated from his investments. I tried to talk him out of it, but you know your father’s temper, gentle on the outside, but inside he’s stubborn. He wouldn’t listen to me. Now he’s fine, don’t worry about anything, all the pressure is on me. I’m a woman after all, I have no choice but to sell this house to make ends meet. Agnes, you need to understand me.”
Agnes saw through Laura’s true intentions.
Her father’s current situation, Laura already had her eyes on someone new.
Berlin Thomas was a big shot in the Capital.
If Laura really tied the knot with him, she would definitely leave.
What she didn’t expect was that Laura would sell the Pritchard family’s old house before leaving, but she put all the blame on Preston
Preston’s investments over the years might indeed have been a loss.
But Agnes didn’t know exactly what happened.
Laura took advantage of this to render Agnes speechless.
Agnes chuckled coldly, “Ms. Laura, as far as I know, my father still had other properties over the years. Why not sell those instead of mortgaging the old house?”
Laura’s face changed instantly.
Agnes continued, “The villas my father owns have appreciated quite a bit. Altogether, they could cover the cost of the Pritchard family’s old house. Those properties were also purchased by my father. If he woke up, if he really had to repay the debt, he would definitely have sold those first Don’t you think so, Ms Laura?”
Laura’s face turned sour. She didn’t expect Agnes to remember those properties so clearly
They were nearly all bought after her mamage to Preston and were joint assets
With Preston’s current condition, there was no hope of him waking up
Those assets would belong to her alone in the future
Now they were being targeted by this young girl who was not as docile as she appeared to be
Laura needed to be more cautious.
Laura forced a smile, “Agnes, let me consider this. It’s not that I don’t want to sell them, it’s just that there are some legal difficulties”
“That won’t be a problem, Ms. Laura. I have some professional friends who are very familiar with these matters. You can trust me to handle this.”
“No, Agnes, you have been very hard to take care of your father recently, Rest assured, I’ll handle this. I’ll keep this old house How does that sound?
Agnes also showed a smile, “That’s great, Ms. Laura, I’m going upstairs now”
With that, Agnes turned and went upstairs.
