CHAPTER 348: CHAPTER 348: WHY ARE YOU COUGHING BLOOD?

Lucas Pierce also wanted Leon Keane dead, but Leon Keane just couldn’t die!

Preston Pierce suddenly said deeply, "Dad, in this case, since my sister won’t give thirty billion to Jackie, then let her give Micro-Xin to Jackie."

Lucas Pierce was thrilled to hear that.

He had been at Micro-Xin for a few years, and although it had lost money during these years, he had gained a lot of experience. He dared to say that as long as he had three billion as working capital, he could revive Micro-Xin from the dead.

Owning Micro-Xin was more valuable than owning thirty billion because Micro-Xin is an established company; once it’s revived, it can become profitable. Maybe in less than ten years, he’d have thirty billion, sixty billion in twenty years, and ninety billion in thirty.

Thinking about these numbers made Lucas Pierce feel invigorated.

While Mr. Pierce was still hesitating, he said excitedly, "Yes, Dad is right. Grandpa, I just want Micro-Xin."

Mr. Pierce adored his grandson, and since his grandson said so, he wanted to fulfill his wish.

Mr. Pierce called Leon’s mother again.

Leon’s mother didn’t agree immediately; she said she needed to discuss it with Leon Keane.

Mr. Pierce was furious: "Discuss it if you want, or don’t. It’s up to you. Just have Leon Keane prepare the transfer contract for Micro-Xin today and deliver it to me tomorrow."

End of the call.

Leon’s mother frowned, but her expression improved a lot. Micro-Xin had already been messed up by Lucas Pierce, and it was now in a state of loss, no one dared to take over even if it were sold.

Giving it to Lucas Pierce didn’t really matter.

Back then, when she insisted on arranging Lucas Pierce into Micro-Xin, Leon objected, saying Lucas Pierce would definitely ruin Micro-Xin, she didn’t believe it, and now it was proven that Leon was right.

She still remembered when Leon left angrily that day, he said: Since Mom is so optimistic about Lucas Pierce, then let’s wait and see, at worst... just give Micro-Xin away to him to ruin, The Kanes can afford to lose a Micro-Xin.

Thinking this way, Leon’s mother was more confident that Leon Keane would agree.

Around 7:30 in the morning.

Leon Keane brought Ian Keane over.

"Leon, I have something to tell you."

Leon’s mother took the initiative to speak, Leon raised an eyebrow, guessing what it might be.

Leon stood by his mother’s bedside, "What is it?"

Leon’s mother hesitated for a few seconds: "I... I accept Ivana Monroe."

Leon’s handsome face showed no expression, as if he had already predicted this.

What kind of person was Mr. Pierce? Would he not know? Moreover, Mr. Pierce was now this way, also because his mother indulged him, so it was a habit, any request from Mr. Pierce, his mother would agree to.

Leon nodded: "When I return to the company, I’ll have Derrick Stern transfer three billion to Micro-Xin’s account."

Leon’s mother added: "Besides this three billion, I have one more request, which is to give Micro-Xin to Jackie."

Leon frowned: "I disagree."

Leon’s mother was taken aback, this was an unexpected result for her: "Micro-Xin is a loss-making company right now, giving it to Jackie isn’t worth much money. Leon, this is a concession from your grandfather, don’t make it difficult for your mom."

Leon sneered: "I just don’t want you to continue to be in a difficult position, so I disagree."

Leon’s mother was stunned: "Why say that?"

Leon sat down and analyzed: "Because Lucas Pierce doesn’t have the ability. Mom, you know Micro-Xin is a loss-making company, but have you thought about if you give Micro-Xin to Lucas Pierce and he continues to lose money, will he keep coming to you for more? Business losses aren’t small numbers, what he wants is billions, should The Kanes keep covering for his bottomless pit forever?"

Leon’s mother shook her head: "No, if he loses this three billion again, he would be too embarrassed to come asking for more money."

Too embarrassed?

Leon "hehe", if Lucas Pierce knew what embarrassment was, he wouldn’t have used a fake suicide trick in front of everyone to force him to give money.

Leon talked to Leon’s mother for a bit more, but couldn’t reason with her at all.

He was quite speechless, and said indifferently: "Since Mom has already made a decision, why ask me?"

Leon’s mother was startled: "Leon..."

Leon stood up: "When I get back to the company, I will have Derrick Stern prepare the transfer contract and deliver it to you. If Mom wants to give it to someone else, just give it away! But, let me make it clear, if Lucas Pierce asks for money again, I won’t give him a penny."

Leon’s mother: "..."

Leon left the hospital room, Leon’s mother’s heart pounded, suddenly feeling a bit panicked, Leon had a sharp eye, and the things he talked about would eventually be proven true.

Suddenly, Leon’s mother didn’t want to give Micro-Xin to Lucas Pierce.

Leon’s mother called Lucas Pierce, hoping to find a breakthrough from him, because Mr. Pierce definitely wouldn’t back down this time.

"Auntie."

"Jackie! Auntie needs to talk to you about something..."

Leon’s mother rambled on about the Micro-Xin matter, hinting to Lucas Pierce that it couldn’t be transferred. Just after she finished speaking, Lucas Pierce shouted loudly.

"Grandpa... Grandpa... what’s wrong? Why are you vomiting blood..."

Leon’s mother was startled by Lucas Pierce’s words.

"Jackie, call a doctor quickly." Leon’s mother urged.

"No one is allowed to call a doctor, just let me die. Remember, I was angered to death by Little Four, she made me die of anger!"

Mr. Pierce cried and shouted, as if afraid people wouldn’t know.

Little Four was Leon’s mother’s nickname, given to her by Mrs. Pierce, and after Mrs. Pierce passed away, only Mr. Pierce would call her by that nickname.

Every time Mr. Pierce called, Leon’s mother wanted to cry, as if she returned to her childhood when Mrs. Pierce was still alive.

Mr. Pierce had deeply rooted thoughts of favoring boys over girls, only Mrs. Pierce was the one who loved her the most.

Leon’s mother turned around, back facing Ian Keane, so Little Ian wouldn’t see her tears.

"Okay, I’ll give you Micro-Xin, tell Grandpa not to be angry anymore."

"Grandpa, did you hear? Auntie said she’d give me Micro-Xin, don’t be mad anymore, Auntie loves me, and she loves you too..." Lucas Pierce was overly excited, and couldn’t speak properly afterward.

Lucas Pierce ended the call.

He smiled smugly: "Grandpa, you’re really capable, put on such a convincing act, Auntie was probably scared to death."

Mr. Pierce also laughed "hehehe", doting on him: "It’s all for you, now she’s finally agreed to give Micro-Xin to you. Jackie, you must work hard to achieve results and show everyone."

Lucas Pierce, full of confidence: "Yes, I will, Grandpa."

Preston Pierce left the room to buy breakfast for his son and Mr. Pierce, just as the elevator doors opened, he saw a familiar figure enter the adjacent elevator: "President Kane?"

Why did he come to the hospital?

Preston Pierce immediately turned back to the elevator, went back upstairs, and returned to the room, not seeing any trace of Leon Keane.
