492 The Secret About the Past 110 (1/2)
Mrs. Gu nodded with a smile and said, ”Yeah, I think so too.”
Xu Youran subconsciously gave Lin Mingxi the side-eye and continued to eat her food quietly.
After the meal, Lin Mingxi's phone began to ring all of a sudden. It was a call from the Lin family's butler, who informed her that Lin Mingyuan and her husband had got into a heated argument with her parents.
Lin Mingxi and Gu Beicheng then drove back to the Lin family home to check up on the situation.
Just as they reached the door, they heard Lin Mingyuan hollering at the top of her lungs. It must have been a grave situation since the argument seemed rather austere.
As soon as she entered, Lin Mingxi glared at Lin Mingyuan and bellowed, ”You know that Mother's in poor health, yet you're still arguing with her. Are you trying to drive her to her grave!?!”
”You came home just at the right time. Saves me the trouble of calling you here! Father and Mother helped you sell your shares to the company without my permission, and you guys have been hiding it from me all along. Because of that, we're faced with financial difficulties because there aren't sufficient funds in the company! Yes, you may be their biological daughter while I'm just an adopted nobody! But how am I supposed to deal with the situation now that the company is stuck in a rut!?!”
Mrs. Lin flew into an uncontrollable rage and snapped in exasperation, ”The company belongs to your Father and me. You and your sister own the same portion of shares each, yet you keep discriminating and making life hard for her while she's at the office. One of you wants the company while the other wants money. I know you're eyeing the company, and since you can't tolerate your sister being in the office, what's wrong with her selling her portion of the shares? Why? Are you thinking of pocketing Mingxi's shares too? Mingyuan, I didn't act before asking for your opinion, you were the one who chose this yourself. Besides, you may just sell the company if it's facing financial difficulties. Your Father and I don't have the energy to manage it anymore. Since we don't have any sons, the company will belong to the two of you sooner or later!”
Lin Mingxi thought that Lin Mingyuan was aware of the matter, but it seemed her parents had been keeping it from her and she had just found out about it.
No wonder the procedure went so smoothly.
Indeed, Lin Mingyuan wouldn't have agreed to it had she known earlier. She would have definitely lashed out at Lin Mingxi if that were the case.
After all, the company still belonged to Mr. and Mrs. Lin. Although they had already handed over the management duties to their daughter, they still had some say in the company's matters.
”Lin Mingyuan!” Lin Mingxi simply could not bring herself to call her her sister again. ”I own half of the company's shares. I've taken what's mine, and there's no way I'm giving it back because it's what I'm entitled to. I won't talk about how you used to pocket my share of the company's revenue back when I was working as a fitness trainer at the gym. I should at least be receiving some interest. At the end of the day, both of our shares still belong to Father and Mother. Do you know how much money your shares are worth? How dare you still raise your voice at Father and Mother!?! Who do you think you are!?!”
”Since Father and Mother are so biased toward you, just take care of them yourself,” Lin Mingyuan scoffed.
”Since you've already said that, could you still have the cheek to covet Father and Mother's assets? Why don't you just return everything? That's what you ought to do. Do you know how shameless you are to have said that?”
Pointing a finger at Lin Mingxi, Lin Mingyuan hissed, ”The ownership of the company has already been transferred to me. From now onwards, we're no longer sisters. And you two…”
She then pointed at Mr. and Mrs. Lin and continued, ”We're no longer parent and child. I'm severing ties with all of you! You two can rely on Lin Mingxi to be filial toward you!”
”You, get lost now! Get lost!” Mrs. Lin hollered, seething with exasperation.
”I'm going to get lost right now. I'm never coming back to this family ever again!” As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Mingxi turned around and left with her husband.
