Chapter 75 This Is Against the Law
On the other end of the phone, when Henry heard that Timothy wanted him to bring his computer, he didn’t even think about it and quickly agreed. After that, they hung up.
Upon seeing that Timothy finally caved in, Lauren, whose face was still twisted with anger, now looked smug. She raised her chin as the corners of her mouth curved up into a sneer. “Now, wasn’t that easy? You have to be aware of who you are. You’re just a b*stard without a mother. Thus, you’re not qualified to fight us.”
Resentment boiled deep within his heart, but he did not say a word. All he did was clench his fists so hard that his knuckles became white! In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed and Henry had finally arrived. While entering the door, he saw at a glance that Timothy was with Silas, and he could not help but be surprised.
“Timothy, what’s going on?”
Henry took a few steps forward in uncertainty. Timothy looked at Henry, his eyes full of guilt before explaining why he told Henry to come.
“What?” After hearing the explanation, Henry was shocked for a long time. He had never thought that Timothy and Silas were actually father and son. Moreover, there was such a deep conflict between the two!
Immediately, Henry clenched his teeth and became resentful. He was angry, not because the software could only be sold for 1 million in the end, but because Silas had actually treated his own son like trash! He could even use his own son to gain benefits! Is he even human?
Henry immediately opened his mouth, his voice as cold as winter. “Mr. Reinhart, you are a true businessman. How ruthless you are to scheme against your own son! You’re not worthy of being a father! Moreover, I’m afraid you’ve forgotten that it wasn’t only Timothy who developed this software. I also participated in its development, so I also have the right to make decisions. I won’t sell this software to you, so it is useless even if you threaten Timothy.”
With that, he took the computer and turned around to leave.
When Lauren saw that, her eyes instantly darkened! How dare this boy leave after he has come? Dream on! She suddenly shouted in wrath, “Stop right there! It’s either you leave the software here today, or you cannot leave! Guards, grab him for me!”
The bodyguards swarmed forward and blocked Henry’s path. A frowning Henry suddenly sneered. “What, are you going to force me to give it to you? You businessmen are really despicable nowadays, but let me warn you first that I am not related to you. If you use force on me, it’s equivalent to robbing me and this is against the law! Try me if you dare!”
Everyone felt stunned upon hearing this! As for Silas, he was really frustrated. He had never imagined that this problem would occur right after he managed to force Timothy to agree to sell the software.
Moreover, what Henry said was true. It didn’t matter if Silas had forced his own son, but it was against the law to coerce others. After thinking about it, he suddenly relaxed his tone a little and said, “Then, how about this, Mr. Tompkins? I can give you 5 million as originally agreed. You just need to leave this software here with us and both of you can leave in peace.”
Nevertheless, Henry sneered and responded, “Sorry, I’m not selling it for 5 million. I already said I want 20 million for it.”
When these words came out, everyone in the whole room was stunned. Timothy was taken aback too, but soon realized that Henry was trying to obtain justice for him. Thus, his heart could not help but feel a little warm.
As for Lauren, she was livid. How could anyone defy her?
Greed and menace intertwined in her gaze as she clenched her teeth and suddenly shouted, “Stop talking nonsense! I have no time to discuss with you. I won’t give you 2 million, let alone 20 million! You have to give us the software today no matter what! Guards, grab his computer for me!”
