“Shut up?”

Greg Jensen sneered, “The hotel belongs to the Abbott family, what right do you have to tell me to shut up?”

Jasmine Lampe scoffed, “You know the hotel belongs to the Abbott family, huh? At least I’m Adeline Conner’s mother-in-law, and what are you, daring to meddle like this?”

Greg Jensen said playfully, “How about the identity of the second-largest shareholder of the hotel?”

“Hotel shareholder? How do you have shares in the hotel?”

Jasmine Lampe looked bewilderedly at Alfred Webb and stammered, “Alfred, is this true?”

Alfred Webb nodded, “That’s right, Greg Jensen indeed owns thirty percent of the shares, making him the second-largest shareholder of the hotel.”

Jasmine Lampe was first stunned and then, catching on, scoffed, “Just the second-largest shareholder, the hotel is still under our son-in-law’s command, what right do you have to give orders?”

Seeing she was still not giving up, Greg Jensen shook his head.

This was, after all, a family affair of the Abbotts, and he really shouldn’t have gotten involved, but he couldn’t stand the oppressive attitude of the Crowe family people.

How could he remain indifferent while watching his woman being bullied? Would that even make him a man?

So, he had decided to take care of this matter today!

He glanced at Alfred Webb and said, “Uncle Webb, transfer the hotel shares to Iris, or I’ll have no choice but to withdraw my shares.”

Alfred Webb was taken aback and frowned, “Have you thought this through?”

Greg Jensen nodded, “I’ve thought it through very clearly, whether it’s the medicinal diets or the goodwill of the Ware Family, if the Abbott family doesn’t carry the Abbott name, then it has nothing do with me.”

Hearing his words, Alfred Webb started to smile delightedly.

Because he knew that Greg Jensen truly cared about Lois Abbott, so he was willing to give up the high dividends from Reverie Inn.

Rather than splitting ways abruptly, he insisted on forcing Alfred Webb to hand over the hotel to Lois first, sparing her from being bullied.

For this very reason, Alfred Webb wasn’t angered but instead was pleased, nodding, “Alright, we’ll do as you say, I’ll have someone draft the share transfer agreement first thing tomorrow.”

Greg Jensen smiled, “Good, then I’ll hold onto my shares for now.”

The two men exchanged a smile, while the Crowe family members were all stunned.

They could never have imagined that Greg Jensen’s words would be so effective; despite being only the second-largest shareholder, he could pressure Alfred Webb into transferring the shares.

What kind of move was this?

“Alfred, he’s just the second shareholder, this…”

“Exactly, if he wants to withdraw his shares, let him. The business is so good now, we could earn more if he withdraws.”

After a brief silence, the Crowe family members immediately became anxious.

If Alfred Webb really handed over the hotel to Lois Abbott, it would be like he was prematurely retired, and the Abbott family’s financial power would no longer be his concern.

By then, how could they continue to fleece and take advantage of the situation?

Seeing the shocked expressions on the faces of the Crowe family, Lois Abbott felt a great sense of relief from the grievances she had suffered.

She sneered, “You know nothing; if it weren’t for Greg Jensen, our family’s hotel would have gone bankrupt long ago, and you think you could still run a business and make money?”

Iris also pursed her lips disdainfully, “You think if my brother withdraws his shares, the hotel can still operate? When that happens, all of you leeches will have to face the northwest wind.”

The Crowe family members were left embarrassed by the sisters’ remarks, their faces turning from green to red.

Jasmine Lampe urgently said, “Alfred, have you gone mad? Such a big hotel, and you hand it over to that little girl?”

“Reverie Inn was built from scratch by me, and Lois is my daughter; it is only right and proper that I hand the hotel over to her,” said Alfred Webb, his expression cool and his demeanor indifferent as he looked at his mother-in- law, “Any problems with that?”

Jasmine Lampe was at a loss for words and managed an awkward smile, “Heh, I… just think that Lois is still young…”

“Then there’s no need for a mother-in-law to worry about it.”

Alfred Webb impatiently cut her off, frowning as he said, “Let’s stop eating for today, I’m feeling a bit unwell, I’m going back to rest.”

With that, he got up and walked out.

“Heather… that matter with the car…”

Jasmine Lampe looked hopefully toward Heather Crowe.

Heather Crowe glanced at her, then followed Alfred Webb out without saying a word.

“Still thinking about the car? Where’s your shame? From now on, the Abbott family will be run by Iris, and none of you should expect to get any more benefits!

In addition, your son won’t be needing a car anymore, so you can stop worrying about that.”

Greg Jensen sneered, then stood up and left with his two sisters.

The spacious private room was left with only the Crowe family members looking at each other in dismay.

Slap!

Asthon Crowe angrily slammed his hand on the table, his lips quivering as he said, “This is too much, what does Alfred Webb mean by this?”

“I think he’s deliberately acting in cahoots with that young man,” Anna Crowe interjected.

As soon as she said this, the Crowe family members were all taken aback.

Jasmine Lampe suddenly realized and said, “That’s right, it must be so. That young man is clearly a pretender.

He claimed before that he knew the chief inspector, as if he knew a damn thing! If he dared talk to the chief inspector like that, wouldn’t he be in for a treat?”

Zac Crowe asked with a frightened face, “Mom, I won’t lose my job, will I?”

“Lose your job, my ass. Only a fool like you would fall for that,” Jasmine Lampe glared at her son with a mix of anger and disappointment.

Hearing this, Zac Crowe instantly breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking about being fooled by that young man, he couldn’t help but rage, “That bastard is detestable, daring to deceive me…”

Before he could finish, his phone suddenly rang. Picking it up, he saw it was a call from the inspection team leader.

Without a second thought, he quickly answered, saying obsequiously, “Team leader, do you have any orders for me?”

The team leader’s voice sounded cold as he said, “You don’t need to come to work tomorrow, just report directly to the administrative office.”

“All?”

Zac Crowe was stunned and mumbled, “Report to the administrative office for what? Are they transferring me to logistics? Team leader, I like working on the front line, could you please talk to them…”

Before he could finish, he heard a snicker over the phone, “Transferred to logistics? What a dream you’re having. You, go to logistics?”

A bad feeling suddenly arose in Zac Crowe’s heart as he tentatively asked, “Then what is it…?”

The team leader sneered, “You’re fired!”

Boom!

Zac Crowe’s head buzzed, and he went numb, to the extent that he didn’t hear a single word the team leader said afterwards.

He turned stiffly to his mother, his face a picture of bewilderment. He opened his mouth, but it was a good while before he could make any sound: “Mom, they said I… I… I’ve been fired.”

“What did you say? You’ve been fired?”

“Didn’t you just start working? How could you be fired so quickly?”

“Yeah, what for?”

The Crowe family was suddenly in an uproar, everyone looking bewildered.

They couldn’t understand how this could have happened. Everything had been taken care of, and today was just the day he reported for duty; he hadn’t even officially started working yet, so how could he be fired.

Zac Crowe said with a mournful face, “I don’t know either. It seems like our team leader said I offended someone.”

“Offended someone, whom did you offend…”

Before Jasmine Lampe could finish her sentence, she realized first and exclaimed in shock, “It couldn’t really be that young man’s doing, could it?”

The other members of the Crowe family also thought of this possibility, their eyes bulging in disbelief.
