Chapter 396 - Disagreeable Conversation
Chapter 396 of "No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother" opens revealing the plot: On the other end of the phone, Kinsley Spencer was somewhat surprised to receive a... Discover what happens!
On the other end of the phone, Kinsley Spencer was somewhat surprised to receive a call from Jane Spencer. He hadnāt expected the arrogant Jane would take the initiative to call him.He originally thought Jane knew this in advance, but it seems Liam and Jane really donāt get along; the siblings havenāt even discussed such a big matter.
Since thereās going to be a stir, let them stir! Itās better than having nothing at all.
So, without thinking, he said, "Okay."
"Werenāt you keeping an eye on those two new projects before? Get them done as quickly as possible. Iāll talk to Aron Hanson here and have him lend us a hand." She didnāt tell Kinsley she was planning to see Maya.
After all, Maya is an ace in the hole. If she speaks, Liam will surely listen. Itās better to ask Maya than anyone else, let her whisper in Liamās ear. As long as Liam gives up, she wonāt have to struggle so desperately.
But at the moment, she doesnāt have much confidence in Maya. After all, Maya holds no use for her anymore, and she doesnāt like her aunt.
Nonetheless, she still dialed Mayaās number.
In the apartment, Maya looked at Sister Janeās call, her lips curled slightly into a sudden smile.
After smiling, she leisurely answered the call and lazily asked, "Aunt, whatās up?"
"Maya, letās meet up at noon."
"About the acquisition, right? Sorry, I donāt get involved in work matters. If you have issues, just find Liam directly."
"Maya, you can ask for whatever reward you want after this is done."
"Aunt, my uncle is quite capable of making money. Why do you fuss around? Itās fine if he supports you. Youāre not going to starve."
Maya really didnāt understand Janeās struggles in her career. Isnāt it just about money! Earn as much as your ability allows! What is the point of doing things that exceed your capability? Isnāt it just self-torture?
"Maya, it seems youāre living quite comfortably. Arenāt you afraid Liam might leave you?"
"Iām not like you, I can retreat and advance as I choose. Even if Liam leaves me, Iāll just get a job and make money myself, and wonāt starve to death." Maya lazily answered, leaning back on the sofa.
If Sister Jane didnāt have so many thoughts and obediently stayed home to support her husband and educate the children, such an aunt would be fine.
"Heh, whatās the point in saying more when we donāt agree." Jane, seeing Maya unwilling to help her, angrily hung up the phone immediately. Her mind started to ruminate again, pondering how she could avoid living life by othersā whims? How could she make everyone submit to her just like Liam?
However, achieving such results openly was impossible, so she could only take an unorthodox approach and a risky tactic.
Therefore, she simply tossed all responsibilities to Kinsley.
Kinsley was unlike Jane; he didnāt have as many cunning tricks, so he naive persisted, dragging his father along, desperately trying to stem the tide.
These past days, Second Young Master Spencer had already helped Kinsley secure quite a few project investors, and what comforted him was that, after years of inactivity, his old friends still gave him some face.
At this moment, in Watt Spencerās office, just after hanging up a call with an old friend and exhaling in reassurance, the office door was knocked.
He calmly said, "Please come in."
"Charlotte!" The person who entered startled him, causing him to hurriedly stand up from his chair to greet her.
Charlotte Owen looked at the flustered man in front of her, coldly laughing, "Still the same after all these years."
"Are you here for something?" The man asked nervously, seemingly quite afraid of Charlotte.
"Iāll get straight to the point. Liam wants to acquire the Spencer Clan; Janeās already not handling company matters. You and your precious son should stop stirring things up and quickly sign the shareholder resolution." Charlotte said angrily.
"Charlotte, donāt be reckless. The Spencer Clan canāt be acquired, otherwise where will Kinsley go?"
"Watt, are you sure you want to oppose me?" Charlotte was displeased.
"Charlotte, back then, I was wrong, I wronged you and Noah, but I canāt disregard Kinsleyās livelihood; he is my son after all. Howās Noah doing?" Watt struggled, faced with the overbearing Charlotte.
Regarding their past, he was helpless. He had failed Charlotte, disrupted her life, leaving her to wander with Noah.
Logically speaking, he should heed Charlotteās requests, allowing her some peace of mind, but he couldnāt neglect Kinsley.
Back then, Old Master Spencer arranged his marriage, yet he eventually fell for Charlotte, constantly promising her that he would divorce and give her a home. Even after Kinsley was born, he never proposed divorce.
Charlotte completely lost hope, ceased contacting him but didnāt terminate her pregnancy, choosing instead to bring the child into the world alone.
Later, after Kinsleyās mother passed away, he tried finding her several times, hoping to give her a home, but was consistently rejected by Charlotte, who from then onward never engaged in a relationship again, raising Noah alone to this day.
Listening to Wattās explanation and greetings, Charlotte coldly replied, "You still remember Noah? I was afraid youād only remember Kinsley as your son. If you truly care for Kinsley, youāll quickly sign the resolution. I can let Kinsley lead a subsidiary; if you wait for Liam to act, you know what will happen."
"Charlotte, canāt you talk to Liam and have him abandon this acquisition plan?"
"Watt, the older you get, the more disgraceful you become? Iām telling you, you owe Liam a lot. You finally have a chance to prove yourself; donāt be so oblivious." Charlotte exploded, seeing him trying to turn her against herself.
"Charlotte, what do you mean by your words? When have I owed Liam?"
Seeing Wattās utterly confused expression, Charlotte took a deep breath, walked up beside him, and grabbed his collar, whispering something secretively.
Instantly, Watt was stunned, falling limply onto his chair in disbelief.
Looking at the shocked man, Charlotte gave a cold laugh, picked up her handbag from his desk, and walked out.
In the office, Watt was like in a daze, his mind blank, muddledly grabbing the phone and dialing Kinsleyās number, weakly saying, "Kinsley, stop stirring things up, sign the shareholder resolution."
"Dad, whatās going on?"
"We canāt win against Liam; if he acts, weāll have no chance at all. Once the Spencer Clan is acquired, you should still be able to keep your current position, no need to worry."
"Dad, do you know something? Why change the plan suddenly?"
"Kinsley, donāt ask." Watt finished and hung up, powerlessly sitting back onto his chair.
On the other end, after hanging up the phone, Kinsley fell into contemplation. Even though he was unwilling, he had to admit he couldnāt actually defeat Liam; even Jane has given up, so whatās the point in persisting foolishly? Therefore, he picked up the shareholder resolution and signed his name.
After that, he called Jane, telling her he surrendered and she could do as she wished.
Upon receiving the call, Jane immediately went to Kinsleyās office and signed her name on the shareholder resolution sheet.
