Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 449

Everyone was stunned.

After a long moment of silence, Oscar was the first person to come around. He suppressed the excitement in his chest and his voice trembled as he said, “Charles, this isn’t a small matter. Don’t joke about something like this, we’ll… we’ll take it seriously.”

“I have slightly over 20% of the shares altogether. If you don’t intervene in my affairs for this period of time, I’ll split all my shares between all four of your families after I avenge Sophia’s death.” A jeering look spread across Charles’ handsome face as he took in their greedy eyes.

Kinships were almost non-existent among wealthy families, though there were rare cases when there were fewer children in the family.

Oscar gave a dry cough as a pleasantly surprised look flashed in his eyes. Still, he forced himself to remain calm. “Did you say… all four of our families?”

“Yes, all four of you can split it among yourselves, my family side won’t take a share,” Charles said as he scratched his unshaven chin, and despite how scruffy and unkempt he looked, his tone was unusually calm.

With one less family to split among the shares, the others would get an extra share.

Oscar could no longer hold back the genuine enthusiasm after getting Charles’ confirmation. The shares in Charles’ hands were no less than everything they had gotten from their grandfather’s inheritance!

Clara wrinkled her nose in disgust. She could not stand the bunch of them. They were not people, just a bunch of blood-sucking vampires.

“Charles, don’t be impulsive now, think about it and make a decision later on.” Zachary knew that he should not meddle in the Harris family’s affairs, but he could not bring himself to just keep quiet.

“I know.” Charles had already made up his mind when he proposed to drive the Jones family to bankruptcy.

Since he had already made his decision, Zachary did not want to say anything more. Still, worry filled his eyes.

Luna, on the other hand, was not as excited as Oscar. “Why are you willing to give us your shares? You have quite an amount of shares in your hands.”

Before Charles could answer, she raised her voice and continued, “I think you’re up to something!”

Charles glared at him, his bloodshot eyes filled with menace and frost. “You don’t have to accept it if you don’t want it, I’m sure there are other people who would be more than willing to take it from you.”

“Luna,” Oscar called out to his sister gently.

However, Luna ignored him as she kept her stare on Charles. “You’re not dealing with the human experiment case because you’re too busy thinking about how to avenge Sophia’s death. If word gets out that you’re taking advantage of your position to bully others along with Harris Corporation’s involvement in human experiments, how would Harris Corporation remain unaffected by the bad press?”

All eyes were on Harris Corporation now, and if she allowed him to act impulsively however he liked, Harris Corporation was bound to collapse sooner or later.

If that happened, so what if they had all the shares of the company?

The gleeful grin on the rest of their faces immediately faded when they heard her.

Now that Harris Corporation was still under investigation for their involvement in human experiments, the military personnel assigned to monitor the Harris family were still standing by. If they decided to go against the Phillips, Sommer, Johnson, and Jones family and destroy Jones Group, Harris Corporation would earn themselves a couple more enemies and worsen their situation.

Charles had already guessed that they would bring up the human experiments so he was not surprised. “If the person who leaked news of Harris Corporation being involved in human experiments meant to destroy Harris Corporation, why wait until now?”

If the person was able to send him to prison and mobilize military personnel to monitor his family, this person was certainly capable of using this incident to bring down Harris Corporation.

However, this person had not done anything, which only meant that there was an ulterior motive.

He had just realized this moments ago as well.

His family was not stupid either, his reasoning did make sense.

Oscar grinned as joy returned to his eyes. “As your elders, we won’t oppose you if you’re so adamant about seeking revenge for the woman you love. Since you already made up your mind, let’s do this then. Anyway, you should drink less alcohol, it’s not good for your health.”
