Capítulo 256 Un mundo frío
¡ Jack Davis ! ¡ Era él !
Iván gritó el nombre enojado . _ Pensó que les beneficiaría que Jack se fuera al extranjero y no pudieran contactarlo . _ Inesperadamente , Jack se confabuló con Smith Group hace mucho tiempo y les vendió todas sus pruebas .
Maldita sea . _ _ ¡ Maldita sea ! _
” Tansy Group lo ha tratado tan bien , pero nos traicionó . Es realmente desagradecido ” . _
David empujó sus anteojos y dijo con frialdad : ” Smith Group debe haberle dado muchos beneficios , por lo que nos traicionó . Pero no es el momento de hablar de esto . Presidente Smith , Sr. Ivan . Tenemos que volver a la empresa como _ _
tan pronto como sea posible y averiguarlo antes . ”
Clare e Ivan se miraron y asintieron . _ _
” Sí . Dígales a todos los empleados que no entren en pánico y crean esas noticias , y sigan trabajando . Asegúrese de estabilizar la empresa ” .
Estaban a punto de irse cuando de repente el gerente se apresuró : ” Viene la policía ” .
Clara se quedó helada . ¡ No esperaban que la policía viniera tan rápido !
Iván entró en pánico y agarró el brazo de Clare con fuerza : ” Papá , ¿ qué debemos hacer ahora ? ”
” ¡No te preocupes ! ” Aunque Clare era temida , tenía que mantener la calma . Palmeó a Iván en el hombro y miró _
David con rostro severo . _
” La policía nos llevará a Iván ya mí . Por favor , ayúdenos a resolver las cosas ” .
Clare had helped David, so he was sure David would not betray him.
Sure enough, David nodded solemnly, “President Smith, Mr. Ivan. Don’t worry. I will help you come back
safe.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the policeman walked into the room, “Clare Smith, Ivan Smith. Someone reported that Tansy Group had evaded 14 million dollars in taxes. Come with us.”
Clare and Ivan did not refute and obediently followed the police into the police car.
It was a bustling area where many people were around. Someone took a picture of Ivan and Clare getting into the police car and posted it on the Internet.
The news of the tax evasion was confirmed with the police’s presence.
Tansy Group saw a dramatic fall in its reputation. Its stock price dropped a lot in just a few minutes. If they
couldn’t survive this time, Tansy Group would be completely done.
David asked the people from the public relations department to return to the company to work overtime. They didn’t dare to complain. It was true that they were loose about what had happened. They didn’t work in publicity immediately. As a result, it worsened, and they couldn’t compensate for the loss.
After the people from the public relations department left, David drove to Ivan’s residence by himself.
The evidence of tax evasion was solid. Clare and Ivan could come out if the tax was paid up. Otherwise, they were likely to be sentenced.
Fortunately, Ivan had made preparations to transfer all the property to Hulda. Otherwise, all the property under his name would be seized.
When David arrived at Ivan’s residence, the lights in the villa were still on. He was anxious and rushed in.
Hulda was sitting on the couch in the living room, drinking coffee. She stood up quickly when she saw David rushing in, “What’s the matter? What happened?”
“Hul… Oh, no. Mrs. Smith!” David quickly changed the address and said, “Mr. Ivan was in big trouble. He was taken to the police station with President Smith. We need to pay more than 14 million dollars in taxes. Please take the money and follow me to get them out.”
Hulda was stunned for a moment, then her face turned serious, and she held David back, “No!”
David looked at her coldly, “Mrs. Smith? What do you mean? Mr. Ivan transferred all his property to your name. Will you let him die and run away with the property?”
With a chill in his eyes, David thought, “Mr. Ivan misjudged her. She’s as greedy and vain as before. She pretended to like Mr. Ivan!”
David sneered. “Did she think she could run away with the property if Mr. Ivan goes to jail?” thought he.
He and Ivan had been prepared for this. Even if Mr. Ivan was in jail, Hulda could not take away the property if
she betrayed him. She would need David’s signature to take out the property. Otherwise, everything would be
in vain.
After hearing what David said, Hulda felt wronged and sad, “What are you talking about? How could I betray
Ivan? Ivan did transfer his properties to my name, but I can’t take out more than 14 million immediately!”
“What!” David was stunned. How could Tansy Group not have 14 million? Hulda must be lying.
“It’s true!” Seeing he didn’t believe her, Hulda felt even more aggrieved.
David didn’t think Hulda lied. He realized he had missed a critical problem. Before Tansy Group’s accident,
Ivan discovered Cynthia had cut off several Smith Group’s projects and used all money on other projects. Therefore, they didn’t even have seven million, not to mention 14 million.
David was dumbfounded. After reflecting on everything, he realized that Cynthia had started to deploy
against Tansy Group and Ivan from the very beginning.
“What should we do? President Smith and Mr. Ivan were taken away by the police. They can only get away if
we pay all the taxes. Otherwise, they will be sentenced to at least ten years!”
David covered his face, not knowing how to get the money.
Something subtle flashed into Hulda’s eyes, and she pretended to be anxious and sad and said, “We have no
choice. I can only sell the houses Ivan transferred to my name. Maybe we can get 14 million, and…”
As she spoke, she took out a bag from a corner and showed it to David, “This is all the jewelry that Ivan gave me. I still have a few bags and some high–end clothes. You can sell them all for the emergency to get President Smith and Ivan out.”
Seeing she was sincere and gave all she had without hesitation, David was moved and ashamed instantly, “Mrs. Smith. I’m really sorry that I misunderstood you.”
“It’s okay!” Hulda smiled gently, “I know you were too anxious. I was also panicked when I knew the police took Ivan and President Smith away.”
She showed the bag in her hand, “Because I was too flustered and didn’t know what to do, I packed everything in advance. Hope they’ll be helpful.”
David felt warm but still a little worried. He reminded again, “You’ll have nothing if you sell them all. No houses and cars…”
“It’s okay!” Hulda interrupted him directly, “It’s just things, and it’s nothing worth holding on to. I have lived in a dilapidated house and led an ordinary life for many years. Besides, I do this for Ivan. As long as he and President Smith come back, and we can keep Tansy Group, I will get them back sooner or later. I believe in them.”
David was relieved and nodded with satisfaction, “You’ve thought about it thoroughly. You are right. We can take them back as long as President Smith and Mr. Ivan are here.”
After they finished speaking, they immediately held all jewelry, asked someone to pack all the valuable things in the house, and were about to sell them. Second–hand luxury goods couldn’t be sold high unless they were very rare.
Ivan didn’t trust Hulda before and didn’t buy her any valuable things, so Hulda’s things didn’t even sell for
four hundred thousand.
The houses under Hulda’s name were also for sale. Because of the conflict between Ivan and Smith Group and the rush to sell them, there were more watchers, but no one bought them, even though they were sold at a reduced price.
David was anxious. When would they get 14 million dollars?
It hadn’t bothered David when he dealt with hundreds of millions of money. But now he found it difficult to get 14 million.
He and Hulda went door–to–door to borrow money from acquaintances, but those who called Clare or Ivan “brother” rejected them.
They all knew Smith Group would bring down the Tansy Group, so they didn’t dare to help Ivan. Otherwise, Smith Group would give their family a hard time.
David se derrumbó . No esperaba que esas personas se volvieran contra Smith Group antes de que Clare fuera condenada . Era un mundo frío . _
