In his impression, the Lawson Family was led by Julian Lawson, but among the younger generation, Isla Lawson was also quite impressive.
Previously in Frelia, she had handled many family affairs and did a good job.
After returning to the country, she hadn’t made any major mistakes and joined in managing the company.
This ti, how co she gave him such a big blow all of a sudden!
It would have been fine if only the Lawsons had made a move, but to be resolved so quickly was even more embarrassing!
"Mr. Lawson, does your Lawson Family have any grudges against our Ford Family?"
Caleb Lawson was contemplating when a voice ca from the other side.
In one of the many video windows, Percival Ford sat in his study, his graying hair neatly grood, looking through the screen at Caleb Lawson, who was leaning against the headboard.
In another window, Clara Huxley was also watching him.
Caleb Lawson wanted to say that he didn’t know anything beforehand.
But since it was the Lawsons who did it, what use was it for him to claim ignorance?
Caleb Lawson clenched his fist.
"I’ll handle it," Caleb Lawson finally said, "I’ll give you a satisfactory answer."
After saying this, he hurriedly logged off.
He didn’t want to stay here any longer, blushing and embarrassed!
Caleb Lawson picked up his phone, found Isla Lawson’s number, and called directly.
But Isla Lawson didn’t pick up.
"Cough, cough..." Caleb Lawson was so angry he started coughing.
Since Isla didn’t answer, he called her secretary instead.
This ti, it connected quickly.
"Where is Isla Lawson?" Caleb Lawson yelled as soon as the call connected.
"Miss Lawson went to Aether and hasn’t returned yet," the secretary imdiately replied.
"Go find her, and tell her to co back to the old house imdiately!" Caleb Lawson ordered.
"Yes!" The secretary dared not disobey and went to do it imdiately.
After hanging up, Caleb Lawson had another bout of coughing.
The old lady imdiately called the family doctor while helping Caleb to catch his breath.
"Don’t let yourself die of anger," the old lady said.
"How could I not be angry! I’ve lost all face!" Caleb Lawson coughed, "And we don’t even know how they’re gossiping about , gossiping about the Lawson Family!"
Indeed, those in the online video were discussing this matter.
"The way they acted this ti was not high-level; it was resolved so quickly by other families; Mr. Lawson is truly getting old."
"Isn’t that right? Back when Mr. Ford, Mr. Hawthorne, and Mr. Lawson were dividing Aeston, it wasn’t like this."
"But it seems like Mr. Lawson didn’t know about this, doesn’t know who did it."
"That’s also poor managent by the Lawson Family, causing such a big blunder."
"Mr. Ford, what do you think?" soone asked Percival Ford.
Percival Ford snorted coldly.
"Nothing to say, let’s see how Mr. Lawson handles it," he said, "I do want to see who’s targeting our Ford Family!"
Next, there was no need to investigate further.
Because Vernon Gates’ PDF docunt had been released.
Spread throughout the entire circle.
People had been paying much attention to this matter, Aether recently was like oil boiling on a hot fire, adding Isla Lawson, the renowned Miss Lawson.
More people were watching.
For a while, this easily spread PDF docunt was circulating everywhere.
Not only could it be seen in the hot searches within the circle, but it was also being wildly shared in various groups.
"Haha, Isla Lawson, this is the cost of plotting against !" Vernon Gates said maliciously.
This docunt detailed a series of Isla Lawson’s operations.
The day before Aether’s financing eting, she released false news that Eric Grant, key technical personnel, was about to leave, but that was the truth as she knew it.
On the day of Aether’s financing eting, she inford Virgil Ford of the news and, during the break, pressured everyone in the eting room except Serena Sterling, causing no one to dare to invest, forcing Serena to contribute 150 million together with Jasper Ford’s families.
Later, when Isla Lawson was about to sign the contract, she backed out at the last minute.
That’s how she double-crossed Serena Sterling.
Later on, for so unknown reason, she went on to depress copper prices and later shorted gold.
After a while, she suddenly increased her efforts to short copper.
Even when copper prices surged due to a copper mine incident, she wanted to suppress it against the trend, which was stopped by Julian Lawson.
This was what everyone could check before; what was new in this was Isla Lawson’s private financing operations, making a total loss, then selling off overseas assets to paint a false picture of profitability.
There was also this ti she wanted to bring Aether down, but the problem was resolved instantly.
Vernon Gates, in a state of anger, left no stone unturned in his retribution against Isla Lawson.
Listing every detail clearly and plainly.
How Isla Lawson boasted about profiting to others while secretly selling overseas assets at low prices, outlined vividly.
And how Isla Lawson suffered investnt failures and losses ti after ti, utterly clear!
Once this PDF docunt surfaced, the entire circle exploded.
Countless people were watching.
"So this is how it was?"
"Wasn’t Isla Lawson supposed to be a high-IQ financial talent from a prestigious university in Frelia? How did it turn out like this?"
"Yeah, those losses, wow..."
"And exaggerating the situation; I still rember Isla Lawson’s boastful remarks at the circle gatherings."
"Hahaha, maybe her previous reputation was built the sa way."
"Hey, don’t say that, really don’t say that; it might actually be true!"
...
Everyone was talking about it, suddenly, soone discovered an interesting point.
"Wait, I seem to have found sothing. Compare these events with Serena Sterling’s recent activities; there’s sothing subtle!"
Imdiately, quick-handed individuals made the corresponding collation.
Every event and ti.
Then they discovered Serena Sterling’s action path.
Serena showing interest in Aether—Serena partnering with Jasper Ford to invest 150 million in acquiring Aether shares.
Serena investing large sums in the international market, half in gold, half in copper—Serena made so gains, refrained from greed, and exited quickly.
Serena then used preemptive rights to once again acquire the entirety of the shares Aether released—Aether’s predicant—those difficulties were resolved by Serena leading a team.
When this collation docunt ca out.
Everyone saw Serena Sterling’s every step.
Each move she made.
By then, no one was concerned about Isla Lawson’s affairs.
They all focused on each of Serena Sterling’s maneuvers.
"How did she do it?" soone asked.
"And the crisis this ti, why was it resolved so quickly? Was there soone behind advising her, was it Silas Hawthorne?"
"Wait, I found sothing else, oh my, Serena Sterling has already beco a shareholder of the Hawthorne Group!"
"What?"
Everyone was shocked.
"Was it Silas Hawthorne who gave her the shares?"
Soone imdiately went to investigate.
And at this mont, the big nas on the call had also received the relevant news.
They knew it even more clearly than others.
Right now, they were both mocking the Lawson Family for having a fool like Isla Lawson and discussing things about Serena Sterling.
"Serena didn’t get the shares from Silas Hawthorne; it was exchanged with Aether shares."
