Chapter 232: An Agreement

    Silence dominated the room after Jaden had spoken. Everyone had a change in their expressions, as they looked at Jaden, wondering if there was something wrong with his mind.


    They had already said that they wanted to buy the shares from him, but he was still iming that he wanted to buy the shares from them. From this, it was clear that none of them would be able to get what they wanted.


    "Mr. Moore, why don''t we just forget about the matter of purchasing the shares. We all want the shares, but there are no shares to buy. So, why don''t you talk about the matter about you taking thepany''s money for your own personal use?" One of them suddenly broke the silence.


    With that, the others did not speak, but they looked at Jaden, wanting him to speak up. Of course, they all wanted thepany to continue prospering. After all, as one of the biggestpanies present within the city, it held its own prestige.


    And as the shareholders of thepany, they did not want to see thepany copse. It was not only due to the benefits that they were currently receiving in form of dividends, it was also due to the influence that they possessed due to the influence of thepany.


    "You don''t have to worry much about the money being returned to thepany. That is something that I will definitely do. Still, I''m going to talk about the shares. I''m going to pay you so that you can give me your shares, and I want you to give me the shares at two times the market price." Jaden responded.


    The group of shareholders was immediately dumbfounded after hearing that. They obviously could not believe that Jaden was willing to spend money, to buy the shares. Would it be that he had found something that was unique about thepany?


    Jaden seemed to have seen through the thoughts that these people were having. So, he continued, "Like I had said before, I like thispany. I am not willing to have other people control thepany with me. I want to be in full control of thepany, and my decisions should not be questioned in any way."


    "It is due to that that I have decided to spend the money in my pocket, to purchase the shares at the price two times the market price. You all understand the current market price of the shares, right? With that money, you can use it to buy shares in anotherpany of the same level." Jaden continued.


    Another moment of silence had descended into the room. It was clear that everybody was contemting on what to do.


    Finally, thedy in the room spoke up. "Are you sure that you are willing to offer twice the market price for the shares that I hold?"


    It was clear that thedy found it impossible to believe, considering that it was going to be a considerable amount of money for a person to be able to acquire all the shares that they currently had.


    In total, they held 49% of the shares. If one made the calctions, in order to purchase those shares, it would cost about $245 million. And with Jaden asking them to sell the shares at twice the market price, it would cost about $490 million.


    But of course, that was just rough calctions. If actual calctions were made, then, in order to purchase all the shares that they were having at twice the market price, Jaden would have to spend at least $500 million.


    That was definitely not worth it. After all, thepany''s current worth was just approaching $500 million. Even though it was just a small amount away, just about 2 million, it was not that far away from reaching the value of $500 million. If Jaden decided to invest this money somewhere else, he could definitely get something better.


    Or maybe this was just the logic of the young masters. Maybe this was just how they were, carelessly spending the money that their parents had worked so hard in order to be able to get.


    Still, the majority of the shareholders were unwilling to lose the opportunity of holding the shares of such a bigpany. It was not just about the money, it was also about the reputation, together with the connections involved.


    Nheless, there was always somebody that was interested in something like that. Those were the people that had invested casually, obtaining the shares of thepany when it was still not yet developed to the current stage.


    Then, with thepany developing to this level, they thought that the money that they had spent was definitely worth it. And now, other than the profits and other gains that they had gotten during the time that they were owning the shares of thepany, they could sell the shares that had already risen in price, at twice the market price.


    "Then it is agreed. I''m going to sell my shares to you Mr. Moore. Of course, before I transfer the shares, we have toe to an agreement, and sign all the required documents. You cannot go back on your word." Thedy stated after a moment of hesitation.


    It was clear that she was not yet believing that Jaden was willing to spend money so recklessly in purchasing the shares at such a high price. It was true that the price of the shares could increase ording to the reputation of thepany, but still, it was definitely not enough for thepany shares to rise to twice the price, considering the current ability of thepany.


    "Sure. I have no problem with that. If you want, we can start the transfer right now. And then, after we sign the documents, I will transfer the money to you immediately." Jaden responded.


    Even though he was happy, he did not show it on his face. To maintain aposed expression, to make sure that the others would not try to take this opportunity to increase the price of the shares.


    "Why did you agree to sell your shares? I thought that we had agreed that we were going to make sure that he sold his shares to us. You just jumped ship like that?" The man with a fiery temper could not help but question.


    It was clear that he was not happy with the decision made by thedy. After all, with her selling the shares, the power that they held was going to be reduced, while Jaden''s was going to be increased.


    If Jaden''s power surpassed theirs by an incredible margin, it was going to be impossible for them to be able to make him change his mind. In the end, they could only decide to sell their shares to Jaden, before looking for somewhere else that they could invest that money in.


    Just after he had spoken, thinking that things would not get worse, the other suddenly began speaking, showing how willing they were to sell the shares to Jaden. They made the same conditions as thedy.


    Jaden of course agreed to all of them. Now, the only person that had not yet agreed to sell the shares was the man with the short temper. Veins could be seen bulging on his forehead, as he red at the other people within the room.


    In the end, he let out a sigh. Then, he also agreed to sell the shares that he currently held to Jaden. What could he do? Even though he was a person with a short temper, that did not imply that he was a stupid person.


    He understood that just by himself, it was impossible for him to be able to stand against Jaden. It was not impossible for Jaden to be able to suppress him, to the extent that he would not have any say in thepany.


    Instead of being in such a situation, it was better for him to sell the sharese and get something out of it, before buying shares from anotherpany. It was not impossible for him to be able to get everything but he had gotten here, or even better, as long as he made wise choices.


    Now, with everybody agreeing to sell the shares that they held, Jaden decided to begin the transfers immediately. He looked at Matthew who had been wide-eyed the entire time as he watched as the shareholders agreed to sell the shares to Jaden.


    "Mr. Sibi, would you mind preparing the necessary documents for us?" Jaden asked.


    "Oh, I won''t mind." Matthew responded. Then, with a lost expression on his face, he got up from the seat, and left the conference room. At this moment, he was feeling despair, thinking that perhaps he should just resign from his position as the CEO of thepany.


    He was not willing to go down with thepany. If Jaden was going to make a decisions like withdrawing money from thepany ounts for his own personal use asionally, this was going to cripple thepany.


    And now, with the other shareholders agreeing to sell the shares to him, there was going to be nobody that was going to pressurize him to return the money to thepany. So, if he decided to make the entirepany copse, nobody was going to stop him from doing that.


    A little whileter, Matthew came back with the documents, and Jaden and the other shareholders went ahead and signed the share transfer agreement. The one that held the biggest shares was thedy, holding 9% shares.


    As for the others, two of them, each held 8%, another one held 7%, then two more held 6% each, with thest one holding 5%.
