Chapter 253: Chapter 253 Liuwei Dihuang Pills
Abigail Perry attempted suicide by jumping off a building but failed. Her shares were taken away by Daisy Ginger under the pretext of being managed by the heir.
Originally, Emily Ginger could also inherit them, but unfortunately, she now has a confirmed mental illness and lacks the capacity for civil management. Abigail Perry’s decades of hard work went completely to Daisy Ginger.
The 65% she held, combined with Daisy Ginger’s original 25%, totaled 90%. Daisy finally achieved absolute control of the Ginger Group, and she moved forward with the plan to rename the company.
She planned to name the company after Alice Lesser, as an explanation for Alice, who is now in a coma.
The plan was met with strong opposition from the shareholders on Gabriel Ginger’s side; they were all Gabriel Ginger’s relatives, her uncles. Unfortunately, they only held a small number of shares. Without Abigail Perry stirring trouble with them, they couldn’t cause any waves under Daisy’s control.
This company originally belonged to Alice Lesser, left to her by her grandparents. If Gabriel Ginger hadn’t married Alice, those relatives and friends of his would have no right to possess the Ginger shares and dictate terms to her.
The first thing Daisy did after acquiring the shares was to remove the shareholder who had plotted with Abigail Perry to oust her from the management; she bought out all his shares and kicked him out.
That shareholder was an original veteran of the company and Gabriel Ginger’s biological brother. After being expelled by her, he was unwilling to accept it and hired some thugs to cause trouble at her company entrance every day. Daisy directly called the police, had the thugs arrested, and sent that old shareholder to the police station, where he was detained for three months.
Seeing Daisy show no leniency toward relatives, those shareholders who were eager for "rebellion" didn’t dare say anything anymore. Without that bunch dragging her down, Daisy’s days became smoother than ever.
The only unpleasant factor was the variable that was Edward Stephens.
Near the end of the workday, Oliver Rubio saw Daisy sitting in the office without any intention of leaving and gave her a questioning look—Working overtime again tonight?
Daisy took a drag of her cigarette, smiled at Oliver, and said, "You should go home to your wife. I’ll leave a bit later."
"Director Ginger," Oliver nodded towards downstairs, "Mr. Stephens is waiting for you in his car."
Daisy glanced down and indeed saw Edward Stephens’ Bentley. This guy hasn’t been picking her up lately, but after she worked overtime until nine several nights in a row, he suddenly decided to wait for her like a sitting duck!
Daisy was reluctant, but she didn’t want to keep Edward waiting too long. After dawdling for about ten minutes, she reluctantly took her bag and went downstairs.
As soon as Daisy got in the car, before Edward could say anything, she said, "I still have a stack of contracts to review tonight and might have to work until ten thirty. You should go to bed early."
Edward paused and glanced at her with his long, narrow peach blossom eyes, then pulled out a small item wrapped in gift paper from his pocket.
A gift?
Daisy looked at him suspiciously. The man casually said, "I thought you might need it."
Daisy let her guard down, put her bag aside, checked Edward, and then cautiously unwrapped the package.
A white plastic bottle was revealed.
On the bottle, five big characters read: Six-Ingredient Rehmannia Pill!!
To hell with the Six-Ingredient Rehmannia Pill!!!
Daisy took a deep breath, held it in, but couldn’t restrain herself. She hurled the plastic bottle at Edward’s face with force!
Damn it, she wanted to move out from this beast! Move out!!!
