Chapter 1078 Ralph felt even more victorious the more Heather acted this way. With a smug smile, he turned and approached the bottle of red wine he had prepared earlier and slowly poured the liquid into two wine glasses. He was not concerned about her words, as if everything was under his control.
Heather noticed his actions and followed behind him but stopped after taking one step.

Let us toast to our successful cooperation!" Heather only looked at him for a moment before taking the glass. After seeing Ralph gulp the drink, she put the glass closer to her lips and took a sip. Then she stretched her arm out again. ‘The book.” "Haha..." Ralph looked at her outreached hand. She had her palm facing up; her many fine lines and thin calluses differed from other girls with soft hands. With one look, one could tell those were traces from practicing kickboxing all year round.
Smiling, Ralph stared at her palm when suddenly a strange thought flashed across his mind. However, the feeling he got disappeared before he could figure out what it was.
He took out his phone and showed her a few pictures he had taken. ‘Take a look. Is that what you want?” With that, Heather narrowed her eyes to look at the pictures and the words on the screen carefully. Before she could look at them enough, he suddenly retracted his hand and smiled mysteriously. “I'm not lying to you about it, am I?" "You're not thinking you can finish this off by just showinga few photos on your phone, are you?" Scoffing, she asked.
“Of course not! Trustwhen | say that | have the item with me. I'm just showing you a sample of it now. You've been in business for a few years, so I'm sure you understand that customers would first look at the samples before making orders, don’t you?” "Stop beating around the bush. | can tell you want to add additional terms now, so just givethe specifics." Heather sat on the couch and raised her chin slightly. Although she was looking up at him, her demeanor was not any weaker than his.
Ralph stood on his spot. He had to lower his gaze to look at her, but for sreason, it still made him feel inferior to her.
As she had exposed his motives, he just laughed boisterously. “You're indeed brilliant! If it weren't for your nasty temper, | would want to marry you!" "Cut the cr*p!" she interrupted coldly and asked, "Nyour price." "lI want 50% of the Riggs Group's shares that you own!” Ralph put his hand up, showing Heather his five fingers. "Besides that, | want to be a part of the board of directors." "You sure are an ambitious one!" She only mocked him, and toward his conditions, she still showed no acceptance or objection to them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It's not that I'm too ambitious. It's just that the item you want is costly,” Ralph said smilingly, thinking he was reasonable with his request. He believed she should pay the right price if she were truly desperate for the item. 30% of the Riggs Group's shares were attractive but not enough for him to control the company. Even with that, Heather would still be the major shareholder, and Ralph would not have absolute authority.
However, things would be different if he had 50% of the shares because that would make him a significant shareholder. By then, even Heather would need to abide by his words. She could get the other shareholders’ support, but they would only be on par with Ralph at most. He would still have absolute control over the company.
He could only go against Alexander if he had absolute control over the Riggs Group. That was his only way to reclaim what belonged to him and the Russell family.
"Don't be so stingy! | know that managing the company has never been your top priority. Since that's the case, why don't | help you to do it? You can focus on practicing kickboxing too. We get what we want, so isn't that the best choice?”
