It turned out to be the audit report of the city’s largest accounting firm.
Among them, it said by name that Lu Wen Management and Lu He’s companies had major financial debt risks!
Once this report was made public, their company’s stock price would undoubtedly plummet, and the Lu Family’s other enterprises would be implicated as well.
An uproar had broken out among the family’s branch. The Lu family’s big tree had provided them with shelter and nourishment, but now Lu Zhao was standing there with an axe in his hand, ready to chop it down.
“How could this be?” Lu He was so shocked that he couldn’t speak.
“You actually…You deliberately abandoned those initiatives!” Lu Wen clenched the paper tightly.
He immediately recalled the few large projects he had recently taken over from
Lu Zhao. He thought he had won, but when he really thought about it, he realized that these projects had tied up his capital chain. Returning them in the short term would be difficult. If something went wrong, his capital chain would snap!
He only received a thoughtful look from Lu Zhao.
“Lu Zhao, you …” The Lu familys second son was equally astounded. He was about to say something, but Hu Jing grabbed his hand and stopped him.
Hu Jing was well aware of Lu Zhao’s ruthlessness. The second son of the Lu family worked for the Luya Group, and they were on Lu Zhao’s boat. At this point in time, there was nothing that they could possibly say.
“Are you trying to destroy the entire Lu family?!” Old Master Lu had fought hundreds of battles and immediately recognized that Lu Zhao was attempting to pull the rug out from under him.
He wanted Lu Zhao and Lu Wen to fight for the right to inherit so that he could pick the one he liked best. But he had not anticipated Lu Zhao to be so ruthless as to obliterate the entire Lu family.
While pointing at Lu Zhao’s nose, Old Master Lu slammed his cane down angrily and scolded, “You damn brat! Have you thought this through? The Lu Family has fallen. Have you given up on being the CEO? Is your mom aware of how much of a troublemaker you can be?”
Lu Zhao sneered. Old Master Lu had abandoned all pretense of cordiality and was openly threatening him with his mother. “Grandfather, don’t worry. For this reason alone, I made the trip back.”
He leaned forward, pressing one hand on the paper, while his dark eyes fixed on Old Master Lu. “Many more Li Shans will be needed to pay off the debt and make amends. Is this really a challenge for the Lus?”
The entire hall fell silent when Lu Zhao said this.
“What are you getting at?” In hushed tones, Old Master Lu inquired.
“I want to take over the Lu Family.” Lu Zhao’s cold gaze fell on Old Master Lu.
“This includes the shares.”
“Excellent! Excellent!” Old Master Lu was so enraged that he laughed and remarked sarcastically, “The Lu family has always been ruled by the capable. Lu Zhao, in my opinion, is a capable youngster!
Lu Wen abruptly turned to look at Old Master Lu. What did he mean by that? Was Old Master Lu prepared to negotiate with Lu Zhao?
The rest of the Lu Family exchanged glances. They were aware, to a certain extent, that Old Master Lu i s supposed “delegation” over the previous few years was a ruse.
He would delegate control of the Lu Familyi s affairs to Lu Zhao, Lu Wen, and others, but the majority of the shares would remain in his own hands.
This was how Old Master Lu was able to manipulate the Lu family as he pleased. However, Lu Zhao had come to claim this share.
“Thank you for your compliment. The shareholders’ meeting is about to get started. Please make your decision as soon as possible, Grandfather.” Lu Zhao replied coldly. His threatening gaze swept across the Lu Family members.
He only provided Old Master Lu with two options. He could either relinquish power or watch the Lu Familys business suffer.
Everyone could see that the Lu Familys battle had reached a boiling point. This shareholders’ meeting was undoubtedly a battleground. They had to prepare to take sides.
Old Master Lu, on the other hand, had no time to care what the others thought. The struggle for the heir between Lu Zhao and Lu Wen had finally reached him.
Old Master Lu calmed down and said with a dark face, “Don’t be too arrogant.
I’m still waiting for the day you inherit the Lu family!
“Of course, I won’t disappoint Grandfather,” Lu Zhao declared confidently.
After Lu Zhao finished speaking, he turned around and left the old residence. He would not abandon the Luya Group, but he would never be forced to marry into the Lin Family, as Old Master Lu desired.
He would never go into battle unprepared. He had recently obtained crucial clues and no longer needed to rely on the information held by Old Master Lu.
That was why he faced Old Master Lu squarely.
It was already dark when Lu Zhao returned home.
He sat down on the couch in the living room, exhausted, and turned on the TV to drown out the silence of the villa.
At times like this, he especially missed the little woman who would hug him and act coquettishly.
“Luo Ying..When can I see you again?” Lu Zhao took out his phone and began scrolling through their chat history..
