Chapter 571

Shawn gave her a look, and Sadie clammed up, lowering her head.Shawn said calmly, "She has to succeed."…Zara pored over the files until well past midnight, finally getting a handle on the basics of SAM's business.She could not help but feel that Shawn had not made it easy for her at all. This challenge was incredibly tough.SAM made their mark with handcrafted leather goods—wallets, tote bags, suitcases, and shoes. They managed to carve out their niche in the world of luxury brands.Rofey Group had seen better days. Right now, they were teetering on the edge of the market. They just needed the luxury leather goods sector to complete their empire. If they could just get SAM on board, they would leap right into the big leagues.It would be way quicker and easier than building a brand from the ground up.However, SAM was all about family. The business was handed down through the generations. The board members and the executives were all kin, and they did not take kindly to out

One of the men in the suit stared at Zara and was totally confused by her sudden question. "Who are you?"Zara said, "I'm from Rofey Group."The man in the suit got really mad, like a cat that had its tail stepped on. He jumped up and yelled, "We'll never say yes to you taking over! You're just a bunch of robbers!"Zara kept her cool. "I'm here to talk to James today, not to make SAM say yes to a takeover. I just want to talk. Maybe we can find a way that works for both of us and agree on something. That way, SAM's big problem might just go away."The two men in suits looked at each other. They did not like Rofey Group but were also interested in what Zara had said.Zara said calmly, "Instead of sitting here every day, hoping God will come to save SAM, we should go see James. We'd have a better chance with him."The man in the suit only agreed to lead Zara to James after he saw the Rofey family's crest on their car. That was when he knew they were telling the truth about who they

Outside the church, Sadie seemed like she wanted to say something but stopped herself. Zara turned to her and said, "If you want to say something, just say it."Sadie made a face. "Miss, you're too straightforward when you talk."Zara answered, "With stubborn old-school types, being nice and logical won't work. You've got to shake them up a bit.""And if he doesn't get shaken up?"Sadie had never seen anyone negotiate like that. "Making him mad could make buying his company harder later. I thought you were going to have a nice talk with James today.""Do you think I made a mistake?"Sadie hesitated. "I wouldn't say that."Zara grinned. "I'm not your boss, and you're not my employee. You can speak freely. What do you really think?"Sadie bit her lip. "James is just so stubborn. The things you said, Rofey Group already tried to tell him nicely before but he never budged."If Zara thought acting like she was in a TV show by charging in and yelling to show off her unique personali

Back at the manor, Zara was in her study talking to Sadie, "Get me an updated list of SAM's shareholders. Just because James won't budge doesn't mean the others won't."Sadie was catching on to Zara's sneaky ways. "You want to buy up shares from the smaller shareholders. If we get 18%, we'll be the top dog at SAM."If they did that, Zara could easily merge SAM with Rofey Group and avoid two big problems. One, she would not start a price war with Wadsworth Company. Two, she would not ruin SAM's good name.It was like getting a big prize without paying a dime! Zara was not using her own money. She borrowed it using Shawn's name and promised that Rofey Group would pay it back once they owned SAM. No wonder she said Shawn would not have to pay anything.Sadie might not get why Zara had made James mad on purpose, but she had to admit that Zara's next moves were pretty slick. "Alright, I'll get the list," Sadie said without a second thought.Zara was on a roll. She stayed up all night

"How would they know something that specific?" Ophite was just making small talk, sharing a funny story without really caring about it. Then, he moved on to his next shot.Yosef swung his club a few times, but his head was not in the game.He looked up, his keen eyes narrowing in the sunlight. He blurted out. "SAM might not matter to me, but it does to Rofey Group. They wouldn't make such a scene without planning their next move... I'm done here."He handed his club to the caddy and started walking back, peeling off his gloves as he went.Ophite was a mix of frustrated and amused. Yosef said SAM did not matter to him, but he was all set to snatch it away. Even so, he claimed it was not about Shawn.…Yosef had a nose for business. After leaving the golf course, he headed straight back to the office and got Charvi and Samwell on the case.The two secretaries were very skilled. After he slipped back into his suit in the break room and stepped out, they were already there with the

The manager could not afford to take that lightly as he was responsible for that project. If he did not nail it, he would be in deep trouble!He asked anxiously, "Mr. Webb, with Rofey Group secretly grabbing up so many shares of SAM, what's our next move?"Yosef usually did not need to get involved in big company buyouts, but this time was different. Rofey Group was trying to take over, and that caught his interest."They're trying to sneak around, so let's splash their story on the front page of 'The Francoria Daily' and tip off the regulators. They're bending the law, and that's not right."That put a stop to Rofey Group's sneaky plans.They tried to play dirty tricks, so they could not complain when Yosef hit back hard."Yes, sir!"Yosef sat back with his legs crossed. He said calmly, "If James won't accept our friendly offer, then he'll have to face the tough consequences."They had just as many SAM shares as Rofey Group, all bought on the open market. It was time to see wh

Zara, of course, had a plan."First, we'll have our lawyers talk to them. SAM is suing us for a hostile takeover, claiming we broke the Securities Exchange Act and the Corporations Act. But we haven't done anything wrong."By law, we don't have to disclose if we own less than 5% of the shares. Hedging agreements are just normal business, and buying shares is simply a deal between willing parties."We've done everything by the book, and SAM can't just accuse us because they think they're the underdog. We're not taking the blame for this. We'll fight this lawsuit the right way."Sadie nodded. "Right, the lawyers are on it. SAM's lawsuit is really just a way to stall for time. Every extra day they get is another day for them to come up with a plan."That was just step one. Zara had more up her sleeve. "Now that it's out in the open, let's stop hiding. We'll buy the shares from any SAM shareholders who are willing to sell, and we'll grab up any loose shares on the market too. We'll ta

When it was time to talk, everyone had their say. However, once Yosef made a decision, the team united and gave it their all.Whether Azure Cloud Group was just too quick or Rofey Group too slow, when the stock market closed on Friday, Azure Cloud Group had snapped up 35% of SAM's shares. They came out on top.Unless Rofey Group could pry more shares from those speculators or convince SAM's shareholders to sell, they would not beat Azure Cloud Group.By Monday's shareholder meeting, SAM would officially be Azure Cloud Group's.Even Shawn told Zara, "Sell your SAM shares now while the price is good. Save what you can. Otherwise, when everything's settled by Monday, the share price will drop, and you'll lose your money and your shares. You'll even end up in debt."Rofey Group stayed out of the public eye during the 12-day clash.The bigwigs at Rofey Group were on the fence, watching Zara's every move. If she managed to snag SAM, they would cough up the cash she had bet with the ban

Those were some bold words.Zara turned to tease him, wanting to say, 'So that's the real you, Mr. Kronos.' However, before she could get the words out, there was a loud bang. It was like something exploded right in her head. Zara jumped in shock. At the same moment, the car spun out of control and smashed into a big tree!Thrown forward by the crash, Zara, who had not buckled up, hit the back of the front seat hard. Her ribs stung with the pain.Shawn, surprised as well, reacted quicker. He grabbed the car door handle and did not get thrown. He looked back just in time.Everything seemed to move in slow motion. He saw a brass-colored bullet zooming toward them, fast and fierce!In the nick of time, Shawn yanked Zara close and shielded her in his arms!The bullet struck the back window, but lucky for them, the car was bulletproof. The window did not break.The cars behind them sped up and formed a protective circle around their car.Zara was dazed, trying to figure out what j

The hitman saw his chance, stopped chasing, and quickly headed back to report.The news reached a fancy villa fast. The man who got the message was middle-aged with blond hair and blue eyes. He could not believe it. "Have they really been taken care of?""Yep! Their car crashed into the river and blew up. Even if they didn't die right then, they're surely badly hurt!"The man asked again, "What about the woman? The one named Lowry something. Is she gone too?"His son, who set up the whole attack, answered, "She was in the same car as Kronos. She's gotta be gone too!"The man finally relaxed, letting joy wash over him. "Great, that's fantastic. Nice job! We finally got rid of those two big problems!"His son chimed in, "Totally. If that woman hadn't been messing with the SAM deal, we wouldn't even know she showed up in Marsberg with Kronos! If people found out who she was, some stranger could've taken over the Rofey family!""No way! I'm Ravena Rofey's real nephew, and my last n
