Chapter 106
Sasha was infuriated by Liam’s words. Bear the burden? If Matthew can’t solve this, he will be doomed!
However, the shareholders didn’t ask Matthew questions.
Instead, one of the shareholders stepped forward and pointed at James before he angrily yelled, “Mr.
Cunningham, I’ll ask you one last time. Are you going to pay us 100 million?!”
“No!” James replied decisively.
Sasha was about to say something but Helen covered her mouth.
“Fine!” The shareholder nodded vigorously and gritted his teeth. “F*ck it, let’s just call the police! I don’t
want your money! F*ck you! You stole the company’s official seal and embezzled 300 million of the
company’s fund. This is a crime! So what if we got the 300 million back? With evidence of committing
crime, you have to bear legal responsibility! I’ll be damned if you don’t get sent to jail this time!”
The group of shareholders started clamoring. “He’s right, let’s call the police! I don’t need that money!
Curse this b*stard! James and Helen, be prepared to be sent to jail!”
James and Helen were dumbfounded and they hurriedly turned to look at Liam. “C-Can they do that?”
Liam was as pale as a sheet. After all, he had plenty of experience so he knew that the shareholders
weren’t kidding. If they really wanted to investigate further, with evidence of committing crime, James
and Helen wouldn’t be able to escape responsibility. Even he would have to pay for the consequences.
With his head lowered, Liam replied, “They… I think they can…”
“You think?” James was furious. “Can they send us to jail or not?”
Just then, someone from the company’s legal department walked in. “I’ll tell you the answer! But first,
let me ask you a simple question: when a thief steals something and puts it back in the end, did he
commit a crime?”
After giving it some thought, James replied, “Of course he did!”
“Correct!” The man nodded and said, “The situation you’re in is similar. Mr. Cunningham, if the
shareholders don’t want to investigate further, everything will be fine. However, if they want to conduct
an investigation… I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear the consequences!” Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
In an instant, James started to panic. Looking at the angry shareholders, he muttered, “Everyone, it
wasn’t me who promised to give you 100 million; it was Matthew. If you want to find someone to bear
the responsibility, you should look for Matthew. It has nothing to do with me…”
A shareholder immediately yelled, “We’re not talking about the 100 million! We’re talking about the fact
that you embezzled 300 million of the company’s funds! I’d rather give up that 100 million and watch
you go to jail!”
Infuriated, James shouted, “You… You’re a downright bully!”
The shareholder sneered, “If you didn’t commit a crime, I wouldn’t have the opportunity to push you into
a corner. Now that you’ve committed such a huge crime, I’m going to make sure that you spend the
rest of your life in jail!”
James trembled in anger but there was nothing he could do. After all, they had something over him.
Feeling embarrassed, Helen lowered her voice and asked, “Why don’t we sacrifice a little and distribute
the 100 million among them?”
James sighed and said, “It seems that’s the only option. Everyone, we’ll give you the 100 million. Will
that do?”
The shareholder snorted. “So you are willing to give us the money now? Well, it’s too late! I don’t want
your money! I want you to be sent to jail! You b*stard, I’m determined to crush you!”
