FreeNovelChapter 292 Pearce saw that I was intrigued and continued, "Evergreen Health Center-we all want in." "Sure, but to buy in, you've got to bring scapital. How much are you all willing to invest?" I gestured for Helen to handa document.
I had cprepared with a partnership agreement. I knew Evergreen Health Center was a thorn in the side of other hospitals. By letting them buy in, I could ensure their technical staff joined us, but their salaries and benefits remained on their hospital's tab. Plus, any profits from Evergreen would be shared.
Last month's profits were a measly two dollars after expenses. If they wanted dividends, I wasn't going to stop them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey hadn't expectedto agree so easily, and for a moment, they exchanged looks of surprise, then began to pass around the contract.
Allen Ramsey approachedand said, "Claire, they're up to no good. We can't let them buy in. I'd rather face being blacklisted than let them bully you." I chuckled and motioned for him to sit down. "It's fine. More shareholders mean shared responsibility for Evergreen Health Center. Besides, there's no secret funding behind us. Last month'sprofit was..." I raised my voice a bit, holding up two fingers.
They jumped to conclusions. "Two million?" "I knew Evergreen Health Center was profitable. Lately, all the wealthy folks, no matter their ailments, head there." "Sign the papers, buy in-let's do it now." Watching them eagerly sign, Helen collected the documents. "The papers are in triplicate. Once everyone's signed, you can review last month's detailed incand expenses." They all anticipated a two-million-dollar dividend, signing in a frenzy.
Once all signatures were in, Helen glanced at me, suppressing a grin, and distributed last month's financial statement to everyone.
They wet their fingers to flip through the pages, and when they reached the last page and saw the two-dollar profit, they erupted.
"Claire Floyd, are you messing with us?" As tempers flared, Allen Ramsey stepped in front of me. "You're the ones who pressured her for shares. Claire gave them to you, and now you're not satisfied!" Pearce pushed Allen aside. "Allen Ramsey, consider this a formal warning. From today, you're..." Bang- The door swung open with a kick from Claude, leading the way for Max. "Who are you warning, Pearce? My uncle might want to hear this too." The once-boisterous directors suddenly deflated.
"Mr. Hart... Mr. Hilton... You've arrived?" Seeing them cower, I realized Claude had chosen the right side. Max was genuinely grooming him to take over the Hilton Group, and I had a feeling Max would eventually head to Serythia.
Without looking back, I knew Max had joined my side, placing his hands on my shoulders. "Are they threatening you?" I rested my chin on my hand, glancing around at the directors.

Evergreen's minimal profits. They're even threatening to blacklist Allen 'in the medical community." I played the innocent, and the directors were speechless. It was the truth.
"Mr. Hilton, how could Evergreen Health Center, presumably yourm venture only make two dollars? Ms. Claire has played us, and naturally, we're upset."
Max chuckled coldly behind me.
"Evergreen Health Genter was never e. my venture. How it's run is Claire's business. If she isn't great at it and loses money, I cover the loss" en UM I shrugged, speaking lazily. "That's my safety net."
