When She Stops Playing Nice by Hale Saxon

Chapter 180

The call was on speaker. After hearing his grandfather’s words, Ethan finally heaved a sigh of relief.

He thought, ‘Fortunately, Grandpa is not on Gina’s side this time!’

Harry looked at Gabriel smugly. “How is it, Gabriel? Do you still want to fire Ethan?”

Gabriel’s expression did not change. He was still cold and distant. “I’ll listen to Dad and give Ethan another chance.”

Ethan hurriedly thanked him. “Thank you, Uncle Gabriell”

However, he hated Gabriel even more in his heart.

He thought, ‘Uncle Gabriel has been completely bewitched by that b**h. He has unconditionally chosen to side with Gina. He is simply crazy!”

Gabriel looked at Harry. “Harry, what do you need?”

Harty snorted. “Something’s up, Gabriel. I’m here to remind you that you postponed the last shareholders’ meeting for no reason because something happened to Gina, right?”

After Harry saw the report of the murder in the unfinished building in the eastern suburbs, he knew that Gabriel had postponed the meeting to help Gina.

Harry continued, “In the past, you talked back to your elders for that woman and never asked for anything in return. You’ve always put your work first, but this time, you actually delayed important work for Gina and made me and the other shareholders wait in the meeting room for more than ten minutes for nothing. Don’t blame me for saying this. You’re simply bewitched by a vixen!”

Gabriel thought, “Never ask for anything in return? The Spirit Orchids that Gina gave me actually helped my failing o**s to start recovering, I am also able to stretch my fingers which were becoming numb in the past. Such a magical and precious medicinal herb Spirit Orchid was personally developed by Gina. I feel that a mere 600 million dollars cannot compare to the value of such herb.

Although others might not understand the truth, he knew that Gina was slowly accepting him and felt that this was enough for him.

“If this goes on, I’m afraid Jackson Group will be ruined by your” Harry said emotionally.

Gabriel raised his eyes and looked at Harry coldly. “Harry, don’t be an alarmist.”

Harry said, “An alarmist? I’m trying to persuade you with good words!”

“Persuade me nicely? Or are you coveting the chair I’m sitting in now?” Gabriel asked.

Harry paused for a moment. “What are you talking about? Gabriel, you’re getting more and more ridiculous. I think you’re looking down on me. Don’t forget that I became a shareholder of Jackson Group with my own effort, not with your help!”

Harry’s words were true.

Before Jackson Group was founded, the members of the Jackson family were in different situations.

In the early years of Neil, he started a small business and had savings. When Gabriel wanted to start a business, he gave his savings to Gabriel. Later on, when he was developing, Gabriel encountered a shortage of funds. At that time, the other members of the Jackson family were still waiting to see what was going to happen to the Jackson Group. Although it started off great, they were worried that Gabriel was too young to run the company.

Those who didn’t have much money did not help Gabriel out. Those who had money didn’t help because they were afraid that they would lose their investment

Chapter 180

At that time, Harry worked overseas and earned some money. He was bold enough to give forty thousand dollars to Gabriel. He even claimed that Gabriel didn’t have to pay him back if he ended up losing this money.

Gabriel did not make Harry lose money, nor did Harry pay for nothing. In the end, Harry became the third largest shareholder of the company.

The money had been repaid, but it was difficult to return the favor.

This was what Harry wanted to express.

Gabriel said indifferently, “I never said that letting you be a shareholder is my gift. Harry, you’re thinking too much.”

Harry was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He could not win against Gabriel, so he simply rushed out of the door in exasperation.

Ethan carefully asked Gabriel, “Uncle Gabriel, can I… leave now?”

“Get lost,” Gabriel said coldly.

Ethan quickly left as if he had been pardoned.

After leaving Gabriel’s office, Ethan caught up with Harry. “Harry!”

Harry stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Ethan. He pretended to be surprised and said, “I knew that Gabriel wouldn’t come out to apologize to me. I’m sorry, Ethan. I’m old and my ears and eyes aren’t good anymore… Sigh, in my life, I have no children, What I hope to see the most is harmony between my family. I really didn’t expect that s**t Gina to be able to cause so much chaos in our family.”

Ethan agreed with Harry. He felt that Harry was much more sensible than Neil. He suddenly sighed. “If it weren’t for your wife passing away early, your children would definitely end up being much better than Gabriel. Someone like you who values kinship should be the head of the family! I think Grandpa

is old and muddle-headed….

Ethan’s words made Harry overjoyed, but he could not make it too obvious. “Ethan, aren’t you afraid that Gabriel will hear you? Be careful not to give him a reason to fire you.”

Ethan was disdainful and looked like he had given up. He said, “Let him be. He looks down on me anyway. If he wants to fire me, he can make up a lot of excuses. I just feel unwilling that he tries to fire me because of Gina!”

Harry seemed to understand his feelings very well. He patted his shoulder and said, “Ethan, it’s been hard on you. If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can look for me. I will help you!”

Ethan nodded vigorously.

Gina came to the Grand Restaurant to meet Elsen Frost. The diamond mine that Gabriel had given her had already been mined. Elsen brought a few samples for Gina to see.

-Elsen greeted Gina at the entrance of the Grand Restaurant. “Ginal Long time no see. It’s really not easy to see you!”

Gina smiled faintly. “Let’s take a look at the sample.”

“Okay” Elsen gestured for Gina to enter first. After all, although he was Dale Group’s CEO on the surface, Gina was the actual boss. He had to be polite to

his superior.

Elsen and Gina walked towards the first Phoenix room.

Noah, who had just finished negotiating a collaboration, walked out of an ordinary private room. He was feeling the pinch of spending a lot of money to

treat someone to a meal at such an experisive restaurant in order to discuss a collaboration. Unintentionally, he saw a familiar figure.

He thought, “Gina?”

Noah noticed the brown-haired man beside Gina. The man’s figure was also very familiar.

He thought, “Is that Elsen Frost, the CEO of Dale Group? Why are the two of them together? Do they know each other?’

Noah’s eyes widened in disbelief.
