Chapter 1194
After picking up Cody and Max, Andy returned home to find that Elly had already prepared dinner.Now that the two children had grown up, Elly didn't need to spend too much energy caring for them, so she managed the household even more efficiently.Seeing Andy's expression, Elly knew his mood wasn't good. "What's wrong? Did something bad happen?"Andy hung his clothes on the rack and sighed. "Jacob, that brat, actually asked me for shares today! Who does he think he is?"He actually had the audacity to demand 1% of shares! Does he even understand what 1% of the Innova Group means? With the company's future development, 1% of shares could easily make him a millionaire!"I have no idea what the hell he is thinking!"I refused to give him the shares, and he called home to pressure me. It's ridiculous."After saying all that, he felt a lot better. Elly smiled. "Just don't give it to him. After all, he's your younger brother. Why get so angry with him? No one is closer than siblings
Chapter 1195
Andy thought Elly was great, but his family didn't share the same sentiment. He was now the CEO of a company with an annual salary of millions.In fact, what might take several generations for other families to accumulate in wealth, Andy had achieved in his generation alone because of his luck, fortune, and courage. Without any of these factors, he wouldn't have reached this level.At this point, being unable to control his affairs made Andy feel somewhat stifled.After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Eric, I remember Connor mentioned that you have some kind of remedy to influence the gender of a child?"After our wedding ceremony, Elly and I must have a child. Then, my family won't dare to say anything anymore."He had made up his mind. He and Elly must have a child, regardless of gender. It was best to get it done while Elly was still relatively young. In private, Sylvia had also told Elly that regardless of the circumstances, she must give birth to a child for Andy.Many

Early the next morning, Eric called Winston and asked him to help keep an eye out for the things he needed.Upon hearing the items, Winston knew what Eric was up to. After the pandemic, Winston was on a long vacation and wouldn't be bothered unless it was a matter of life and death. However, Eric's matter still needed to be taken care of. Anyway, it was just a matter of a few phone calls. He also possessed some of the things Eric needed, which were kept in good condition. The medicinal herbs Eric needed were not rare and precious, and he was more than happy to share his resources.Eric and Sylvia finished breakfast and discussed their plan to visit Elly at her shop. They intended to advise her to sell the business early if they wanted to start a family. Afterward, they planned to stop by the orphanage.However, their plans were interrupted when Sylvia received a call from Amelia."Mom, what's the matter?" Sylvia asked."Can't I call you if there's nothing wrong? You two haven't

Eric smiled. "Don't worry, Hol. Clarke has some of the things we need, just a few missing items. It will be ready once Hol. Clarke collects everything.""Thank you!" Andy grinned from ear to ear. Unfortunately, his smile didn't last long as his phone rang.Seeing it was Jacob calling, he answered. "What's up? Need more money again?"On Jacob's first day at work, Andy had given him some money, repeatedly reminding him to spend it sparingly until his next paycheck. But Jacob had already spent all the money."Where are you? Mom said she couldn't reach you on the phone. They have arrived in Salt City, and there's no one to pick them up. What's going on?"Andy felt a headache coming on. He had blocked his parents' number because he didn't want them meddling in his affairs. "Alright, I got it. I'll call her right away," Andy said.After hanging up, Andy called his mother and went to the train station to pick up his parents and Jacob.-Not only did Jacob come, but his girlfriend

Elly quietly took Cody and Max upstairs, and Sylvia followed suit. This was Andy's family matter, and it involved the Innova Group, so she didn't want to get involved.As Andy's best friend, Eric had every reason to stay there.After Elly and Sylvia went upstairs, Andy suddenly felt less pressured."Mom, distributing shares isn't as simple as just giving them away. With over 10,000 employees, if we give shares to Jacob, what about the rest of them? Will they still have any incentive to work?" Andy said."I don't care about your employees, but we are a family!"If you don't want to give shares, that's fine. In the past, when your father and I earned money from farming, we spent it together. Now that you're making money, we'll still spend it together!"No matter how much you earn, it will be divided into four shares among us!"Implicitly, she excluded Elly from the equation.Andy couldn't help but laugh. "Mom, you're right. You and Dad take two shares each, and Elly and I take on
Chapter 1199
Jacob came from a rural family, but Andy was a wealthy entrepreneur. Even though the parents favored Jacob, things still needed to be handled slowly. Jacob might end up with nothing if Andy was pushed too hard. After all, Jacob was not entitled to Andy's money and company. This was something Ava understood very well. Jacob was momentarily stunned. "We won't win?" Ava nodded. Jacob became anxious, crying out, "Mom, what do I do if I have no money?! I don't have a car or a house! And Ava's family also demands 80,000 dollars for dowry! How can I come up with so much money?"I… I might as well go die!" The two old folks quickly pulled Jacob back. Lily hugged Jacob and shouted, "Andy, is your heart made of stone? He's your brother! If he dies, we won't live either! Are our lives not even worth 10% of your company?" She was furious, thinking how selfish Andy was. Eric stepped forward and voiced out, "Mr. and Mrs. Bikman, shares can't just be given away. It involves a series of

"It's not good to stay like this," Elly said. "It has to be resolved. Besides, where are they going to stay tonight?" She saw Lily and Colin following Jacob. She didn't know if Jacob could find a place to stay. Andy said, "Why bother about this? As long as they don't sleep on the streets, it's fine. Anyway, I'm just angry! Why do they deserve shares of the Innova Group? Eric, Sylvia, and I have worked so hard for so many years, enduring countless hardships for the Innova Group to achieve what it is today. "How dare he demand 10% shares from me? The three of us don't even have that much!" The three of them together had only 14% of the dividend shares. Michael had 3%, while the Williams and Sonnex families had 15%. Nearly 10% was reserved as a reward for outstanding employees, with the rest distributed to each employee."Andy, calm down." Sylvia smiled. "With the company's rules and regulations, it's impossible for them to get the shares." Andy nodded. "I'll tell the legal dep

"I have no money to spend randomly!" Jacob said frankly.Andy nodded. He was quite clear about this. Taking Cody and Max to the mall for a while would easily cost him money. If the boys spotted toys they liked, it was normal to spend over 100 bucks."Honestly, how much money have you spent on your girlfriend? How much do you give her every month? And what does she even do?"Andy was perplexed. He had given Jacob quite some money, enough for him to spend even if he went out for a drink every night. And now, in just a few days, he had to rely on the cafeteria for three square meals a day?Moreover, Jacob didn't seem to have anything valuable on him, not even a watch. The only notable thing was the suit he had bought for over 3,000 dollars the day before he started working at the company.Jacob smiled awkwardly, "Well... let me tell you the truth. Most of the money goes to her. She often asks me for money. Andy, how much can someone who sells clothes in the mall earn?""Here in Salt
