Everyone quickly eximed, “I understand!”


    Afterwards, he led the three individuals outside.


    Theodore and Rueben were in tears, desperately pleading for mercy. Theodore looked at Mrs. Moore and cried out, “Dad… for the sake of our father-son bond, please help me and Master Wade plead for mercy. Master, I beg you, spare me! If not, I might perish in Lion Rock, Dad!”


    Old Man Moore felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.


    Charlie had decided that they would remain in Lion Mountain for 20 years. Theodore, who was already over 50 years old, would struggle to survive in the severely underdeveloped and impoverished region of Lion Mountain for that long.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    There was a real possibility that he might not make it through the 20-year term.


    In fact, this might be thest time the father and son would ever see each other.


    At that moment, Rueben’s legs gave way, and he was dragged out by others. He cried out in despair, “Grandpa… I’m only in my twenties! I don’t want the prime of my life to be spent in confinement at Lion Rock. Please help me… Grandpa!”


    Lord Moore’s face reflected his internal conflict, and just then, Charlie shouted sternly, “Gag them all!”


    Immediately, several men in ck silenced the three, muffling their cries and bringing an eerie quiet to the scene.


    Thus, all three were forcibly removed.<fn4ff1> Get full chapters from fι?dnοvel</fn4ff1>


    Witnessing this, Lord Moore sighed heavily, realizing that there was no way to negotiate, feeling as if he had aged over ten years in that instant.


    Charlie observed the entire situation, shook his head slightly, and said loudly, “Master Moore, you understand the dangers of harboring tigers better than I do. You need to think not just of yourself, but also of Jasmine. If these two are not dealt with, they will surely pose the greatest threat to Jasmine after you are gone!”


    With a slight smile, Charlie continued, “As long as I, Charlie, am around, I will ensure that they do not be a genuine threat to Jasmine. However, if we leave unresolved issues, they will eventuallye after her again. So, imprisoning them in Lion Rock isn’t just about protecting Jasmine; it’s also about keeping them alive. Otherwise, if they be desperate, they could be reduced to ashes!”


    Lord Moore was taken aback. He then turned to Jasmine and quickly said to Charlie, “Master Wade, you’re right! Let them live and die in Lion Rock!”


    After a moment, Lord Moore looked back at Jasmine and added, “Jasmine, now that you’re back, the chairmanship of the Moore Group naturally belongs to you. From this point forward, you will oversee the affairs of the Moore Group!”


    Jasmine nodded respectfully, saying, “Yes, Grandpa, I understand.”


    Grandpa Moore instructed, “Jasmine, I don’t expect you to engage in fierce battles for the Moore family business. As long as you can maintain the status quo and prevent any decline, I will be satisfied. Please, do not attempt any international coborations again. I would prefer the Moore Group to avoid overseas markets or partnerships with foreignpanies, as I don’t want you to find yourself in danger again, understood?”


    Jasmine responded with a gentle nod and said, “Grandpa, don’t worry; I will definitely prioritize my safety moving forward. Additionally, I believe we can still pursue overseas partnerships. There’s no need to let fear dictate our actions.”


    She paused for a moment and then continued, “This time, Master Wade facilitated my discussions with Nippon Steel. Their Chairman, Shinwa Watanabe, has signed a cooperation agreement with me in Japan. The agreement stiptes that we will form a joint venture to build a factory, with both parties investing equally. However, Nippon Steel is willing to allocate 60% of the shares to our Moore Group.”


    “What?!” The moment Jasmine revealed this, everyone present was left speechless, their jaws dropping in disbelief.


    Nippon Steel has a reputation for being exceptionally stringent in foreign coborations, often refusing to relinquish even 51% of the controlling stake. Even if the Moore Group were to offer 60% of the profits to Nippon Steel, they would still be reluctant to give up control.


    Therefore, those present regarded Nippon Steel as an incredibly tough opponent. Yet, Jasmine imed that Nippon Steel was not only willing to concede controlling interest but also to cede an additional 10% of the shares to the Moore Group. This was nothing short of a fantasy!
