Joshua had a share transfer contract ready for Garry to sign.
Garry's eyes twitched as he really regretted agreeing, he also regretted being too arrogant and neglecting the fact that Joshua would find out.
He had no choice. Joshua was so well prepared that Garry would have to sign his na in multiple places in the docunt while Joshua stood over him, forcing him page by page.
He originally ca to plead with Joshua, but Joshua's ruthlessness gave him a thorough understanding of his capabilities. Garry was certain that Joshua would send him to prison if he didn't sign the papers.
Trembling, he took the pen and began to sign the pages. After he was done signing, he felt as if he was in a complete state of helplessness.
"Mr. Young, please go ho." Joshua put the docunt away and said coolly.
Garry's heart was filled with bitterness before he signed the docunt. Joshua called him Director Young, which represented his identity as a director of Denmark Group, it sounded distant, but it was still a sign of respect.
However, after signing his shares over to Joshua, he called him Mr. Young. This ant Joshua was unwilling even to recognize him as an uncle, and he would not be able to intimidate Joshua any longer with the friendship between their families.
He stepped out of Denmark's Residence as if he were walking on a cotton cloud. He drove ho in a daze, still unsure how he would explain this to his family.
As soon as he entered the house, Vanessa ran quickly to him and grabbed his arm. "How is it, dad? Is the matter settled? Joshua won't be so ruthless, will he?"
Garry looked at Vanessa with a face of eagerness, felt a surge of anger in his heart. He fiercely slapped her across the face.
Vanessa scread and covered her face in pain, looking at Garry incredulously. "Dad, what are you doing?!"
"Are you mad? Why did you slap your daughter?" Mabel hurried to hold Vanessa in her arms.
"You ask her what she's done!" Garry pointed at Vanessa angrily, her fingers trembling. "She's got the nerve! How dare she hire hitn! If she hit soone else, it would be ok, but she actually had them hit Joshua! Vanessa, you are really talented!"
"Vanessa, did you do that?" Mabel asked in a trembling voice.
Vanessa's heart sank. She could not admit it, not even to her parents. She knew if she did, her parents wouldn't help her.
"I didn't!" Vanessa cried. "What evidence does he have? Why does he think I did it?!"
"He's Joshua. What evidence do you think he needs? If he suspects you, he doesn't need proof!" Garry resisted the urge to slap her again.
"Besides, Vanessa, don't think I don't know about your bad friends!"
"Dad! It's not !" Vanessa repeated it. "You must believe ! I love him so much and for so many years. I just want to marry him and be the hostess of Denmark Group! How could I do this to him?"
"Right! Vanessa would never do that," Mabel said. "I think that Joshua deliberately frad Vanessa!"
"What's the use of saying this now?" Garry smiled bitterly and dejectedly. "I'm no longer a Denmark Group shareholder…"
"How could that be?!" Vanessa and Mabel spoke in unison. "What happened?"
Garry briefly told them about his trip to Denmark Residence. Vanessa said, flustered and exasperated. "Dad, how can you promise him? Even if you promised, you shouldn't have had to sign the papers on the spot! Even if you went to prison, you shouldn't have given up your shares! If you're not a shareholder, how could..."
"Vanessa! What do you an?" Garry glared at her angrily. "I'm your father! Do you expect to go to prison?!"
She was in a daze instantly. She realized what she had said and quickly changed her words. "I an, Joshua wouldn't dare put you in jail! You are a shareholder and a director of the company. If he put you in prison, what would the other directors and shareholders think? Wouldn't he be afraid of what the other directors would do?"
"How can you be so na?ve?" Garry sneered. "Why wouldn't Joshua send to prison? Not only would he, but he would punish as a warning to others. Do you really think those directors who only hinder each other all day are a threat to him? The Denmark Group's prosperity today is all because of Joshua's efforts…"
He couldn't continue anymore.
Because only then did he realize he was foolish. It was clear that Joshua knew everything, and he had the ability to ruin him, but Garry always thought that he could ta Joshua like a lion. However, he had beco a plaything under the lion's paw, and it was as if he had asked for it.
"That's all." Garry waved his hand impatiently. "We had better keep contact with Joshua to a minimum in the future!"
"Dad! Is that what we're going do?!" Vanessa asked unwillingly.
"Vanessa, I know what you're thinking about." Garry heaved a sigh. "But Joshua isn't soone you can handle. You might as well give him up. I will take advantage of the next few days to find you a suitable marriage and make it happen as soon as possible."
"I don't agree!" Vanessa interrupted angrily.
"Don't be stubborn, Vanessa!" Garry's face looked a little unpleasant. "The news that I'm not a shareholder in Denmark Group will be spread after so ti, and it'll be almost impossible for you to find a good rich husband!"
"Let it be. It's none of your business." Vanessa ran upstairs angrily.
"This child…" Garry was a little angry.
"She has loved Joshua for so many years. You should understand her," Mabel said.
Garry's eyes flashed with fear as he was afraid that Vanessa would do sothing crazy.

Joshua left the study and went to Hazel's bedroom, he opened the door as she was coming out of the bathroom.
Her body was wrapped in a simple bath towel, her hair dripping with water, the beads of water rolled down her fine porcelain neck, down her breasts, and were absorbed by the towel.
Joshua suddenly felt a little turned on.
"You, you, you… How did you get in?" Hazel asked in a panic, looking at Joshua standing in the doorway.
"You didn't lock the door," he whispered, his voice hoarse.
"You, you get out!" she said quickly. Her cheeks flushed instantly, and she knew how dangerous the situation was.
"How can I get out when I haven't even walked in?" A smile curved his lips evilly, and he walked towards Hazel. "Hazel, this kind of thing must be done step by step. You can't, but I can teach you."
Hazel's cheeks were redder.
Oh, my goodness! What was Joshua talking about? She fully understood, and not only did she understand, but sothing strange even ca to mind...
"Who says I can't!" she said, unconvinced.
She couldn't believe she said that it was as if the words ca out of soone else's mouth, she was dying to bite her tongue off! Was she stupid?
