Chasing the Unexpected CHAPTER 817

Chapter 817

“If we can resolve this matter, I plan to give you a portion of the company’s equity. This way, your voice in the company will carry more weight,” Pedro said.

Jane’s eyes lit up with excitement. “Grandpa, really?”

Over the past few years, she had made significant contributions to the development of the Wilkie Group. Without shares, however, the company’s shareholders often questioned her authority.

Having a stake in the Wilkie Group would make it much easier for her to manage tasks. Moreover, owning shares would give her a say in company matters, bringing her one step closer to taking over!

“Of course. I’ve seen your efforts, so don’t worry. As long as you continue to work hard for the company, I won’t shortchange you,” Pedro promised.

Jane felt a rush of excitement but tried to maintain a calm demeanor. “Grandpa, it’s an honor to contribute to the company’s development. I will work even harder to live up to your expectations!”

When Jane arrived at Prospectus Technology, it was nearly 9:00 a.m.

After stating her name, the receptionist confirmed her identity and led her to the elevator.

“Ms. Wilkie, the CEO’s office is on the top floor,” the receptionist informed her.

“Got it,” Jane replied.

Although she had been there a few times before, she had only met with the CFO or managers from other departments. This would be her first time in Damon’s office.

The elevator quickly ascended to the top floor.

As soon as she stepped out, Spencer greeted her. “Ms. Wilkie, I’ll take you there.”

They soon arrived at Damon’s office.

Spencer knocked lightly on the door and opened it after hearing a “Come in.”

“Mr. Sumner, Ms. Wilkie is here,” he announced.

Damon looked up from his paperwork, his expression calm. “Good. Make a cup of coffee for Ms. Wilkie.”

As he spoke, he walked over to the sofa.

Jane smiled and sat directly across from him. “Mr. Sumner, I see you’re busy, so I’ll get

straight to the point. Regarding the fight between your son and my son, you’re likely already aware of what happened.”

Damon nodded. “Yes, so what’s your point?”

Jane frowned, maintaining her patience as she replied, “Mr. Sumner, it’s a fact that your son pushed mine, causing him to get hurt. Don’t you think an apology is warranted?”

“If my son truly pushed someone, then yes, he should apologize. But how can you prove he did?” Damon asked.

Upon realizing that Damon was not interested in discussing the matter, Jane’s expression darkened. “What do you mean, Mr. Sumner? Are you suggesting my son’s injury is fabricated?”

“I never said your son’s injury is fake, Ms. Wilkie. The crux of the matter is how you can prove it was my son who caused it,” Damon stated.

Jane’s hands clenched tightly, feeling the urge to get up and leave to call the police directly. However, thinking of the shares Pedro had promised, she forced herself to suppress her

anger.

She explained, “Mr. Sumner, I already asked in the office yesterday. It was Mason who saw Wilhelm showing off a new pair of shoes and stepped on him out of jealousy, leading to the fight.

“Mason might have unintentionally pushed Wilhelm, but as a result, Wilhelm hit his head on the desk and sustained a serious cut that required stitches. Do you want me to bring the medical records for you to see?”

“That won’t be necessary. But it sounds like what you’re saying is just your son’s side of the story. My son has told me a different version,” Damon replied.
