Chapter 971

lan settled into his seat, his fingers drumming a slow rhythm on the table, just like he used to during board

meetings.

All eyes in the room were on Dennis.

Dennis’s hand, hanging loosely at his side, slowly clenched into a fist. His face was ashen, and he took a deep

breath.

“The bet is over, lan. The 20% of company shares you used to hold is now in my possession,” he spat, his voice tight

with anger. “Your presence at this meeting is a mere humiliation.”

lan glanced up at the clock on the wall.

Before he could say anything, Mr. Haley chimed in.

“What does it matter whether it’s over or not? I’m sure Mr. Raymond has other plans. Besides, I’ve wanted to give

him the 5% shares of the EcoTraverse Group since the beginning. He refused, and had no choice but to hold onto

them“.

Mr. Haley was buttering up lan, something he would never do when dealing with other members of the Raymond

family.

What did Mr. Haley’s words imply?

If he wanted to give the shares to lan, it meant that lan could win the bet. But he deliberately delayed until the end,

intentionally arriving late. Impossible!

A flash of disbelief followed by anger crossed Dennis’s eyes.

“Mr. Haley, what do you mean by this?” he asked.

“Wasn’t it obvious?, Mr. Raymond didn’t want to win.”

Mr. Haley grabbed a file from the table, using it as a makeshift fan for lan, as if afraid that the tense atmosphere in

the room would make him too warm.

Jeff, standing on the other side of lan, found Mr. Haley’s fawning amusing.

No wonder the CEO had said earlier that Mr. Haley was a man who knew the right time to act.

The other members of the Raymond family in the room were starting to panic.

“What do you mean he didn’t want to win? lan, stop playing games. After the way you’ve treated us, do you think

we’ll believe you?”

“That’s right, you’ve shown us no respect. Compared to your brother, you’re a disappointment.”

“This position should have been Eric’s. You should have stepped down long ago.”

lan leaned back, his face expressionless.

At that moment, a staff member from the share custody institution approached and asked lan, “Mr. Raymond,

should we announce the share composition now?”

lan nodded, and the staff member straightened up and pulled out the record of lan’s share purchase.

“These are the 30% of the Raymond Corporation shares that Mr. Dennis mortgaged with our institution. It was

stated in the agreement that mortgaging carries risks. If someone offers a price higher than the market price

during the same period, the institution may sell these shares. Unfortunately for Mr. Dennis, Mr. Raymond offered a

price higher than the market price, so these 30% of shares now belong to Mr. Raymond. In addition, Holden has

already signed a share transfer agreement, and his 15% of shares also go to lan. This is witnessed by two lawyers,

so the shares that Mr. Raymond holds are now 70%, making him the undeniable CEO of the Raymond Corporation,

even exceeding his previous shareholding of 55%.

After the staff member had finished, the room fell silent momentarily, before Dennis burst out in disbelief.

“Impossible! There was a dispute over lan’s position as the CEO of the Raymond Corporation before, and he has no

right to use the company’s assets to buy shares!”

The staff member pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose.

“Who said Mr. Raymond used the Raymond family’s assets?”

Dennis’s face paled instantly.

“I don’t believe it! I will ask the police to investigate this matter. This is business fraud by lan! He will end up in jail!”

The two top lawyers present spoke up.

“Mr. Dennis, all of Mr. Raymond’s actions are legal and compliant.”

These two lawyers were very well–known and often appeared in various interviews and newspapers. Their words

couldn’t be wrong.

lan had always been known for using legal loopholes in business to make others lose everything.

Dennis instinctively stepped back, his chest aching with rage, his vision blurred by anger.
