Slumdog Billionaire Husband by Rayden Berg

Chapter 142



Chapter 142 Take Audrey Home
Holden had thick dark circles under his eyes.
As the current in-charge person of the Kenneth Group, Holden had not slept much for nearly four days, so he looked exhausted.
He worked all out to negotiate with various parties and discuss countermeasures.
However, the various parties were all very determined and had no hint of easing the tension.
No matter how hard he tried, Holden couldn’t stop the falling stock price of the Kenneth farmily
Hearing Caspian called out his name, Holden took a deep breath. His gaze swept across the
others and said, “Everyone should have known about this matter Starting from Monday, with the
lead of Universe Group and New Bank, many banks joined together and conducted all-around
attacks on us, almost taking over all the industries of our family. We have communicated with
many of them, but they either refused or had a tough attitude
Speaking of this, he sighed and then said, “As for the specific reason, we still don’t have a clue
Everyone from the Kenneth family fell into silence
Holden said, “I don’t know how long this process will last Everyone is suffering a loss. Now, it is nothing more than throwing
money to see who cannot hang on longer
Justin sat in a corner calmly His hand was still wrapped in bandages.
His hand was injured by the broken glass at the seafood restaurant, and it had not healed yet
Justin did not show much interest in what Holden said.
Justin knew that there was no way for him to inherit the family. He was the second her in name, but he was aware that Cole was
the one who had the control power of the family
Therefore, Justin did not care too much about it but just sat there and watched calmly

Holden continued, “We guess that Universe Group worked together with the various banks and did this. The conflicts between
Universe Group and us always exist Some companies that have cooperated with us are also helping in this couple of days
“Is Leandro crazy?” On Holden’s left, a member of the Kenneth family frowned and said. “It doesn’t do any good to Universe
Group. Its market value has been falling recently
“I wonder what he is thinking,” Holden said, “but I have a bold idea. ”
“Huh?” Everyone looked at him.
Holden said, “I know that it is close to impossible, but I have to think about it this way. Leandro has some connections with
Mason, who was driven out of the family by us. It was not until Leandro took charge of Universe Group that Mason started
working at Universe Group. Gerald, who committed a crime of rape nine years ago, returned to Sacramento and successfully
worked int Universe Group
Speaking of this, he pondered for a moment and then said, “So I suspect that this matter has something to do with Mason and
Gerald
“That’s impossible!” Beside Holden, another member of the Kenneth family sneered and said, “We all know what Mason and
Gerald are Mason was quite good in our family back then, but that’s all. We are fully aware of his background. As for Gerald, he
had been in prison for nine years. He could work at Universe Group probably because of Mason. How can Leandro lose the
entire Universe Group for Mason and Gerald?”
Another person said, “Yeah, I think so. Also, Leandro is in no position to do so. It seems that he
doesn’t have shares in Universe Group, right?”
“This is what we are puzzled about as well. So it is just a guess.” Holden said, “Other than that, I
can’t think of the reason why Leandro took action against us.”
“What about New Bank?” Someone else asked.
“Well, we don’t have any idea,” Holden said, “After this incident, we contacted Sterling, but Sterling
did not care about it at all. Yesterday, we asked for help from Mr Dobbin, the head of the Dobbin
family, hoping to leverage the Diamond Card to stop New Bank from targeting us. But it was

rejected by New Bank.”
None of the news that came out of Holden’s mouth was good.
With this news, everyone was a little depressed.
They were on the Kenneth family’s boat. If the Kenneth family’s estate shrank, they would be
affected as well.
Just then, Caspian let out a breath and said, “In short, what happened has already happened. Now, we have two options. One is
to shrink our estate. Give up some less important industries and sell them to protect the most important industries. Two, fight
against Universe Group to the end. However, option two might result in a loss-loss situation. Currently, Leandro looks like a mad
dog. He doesn’t care about anything at all. So, let’s vote”
Everyone’s expressions became gloomy Most of them chose to shrink and give up something that was not so important.
“Okay. The resolution is passed.” Holden let out a breath and said, “The next thing is about the
end-of-year meeting that is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, whether it should be held as scheduled or not. Most of the
invitations have been sent out.”
Caspian said calmly. “Naturally, it should be held as scheduled. This is the image of the Kenneth family. Let those guys in
Sacramento think it over that even so, the Kenneth family is still stable as
usual.
Another day passed by quietly At 6:00 pm on Friday. Gerald waited for Audrey to come
downstairs from Keira s apartment
He had to take Audrey home to deal with his parents
Soon, Gerald saw Audrey come over from afar When he saw her Gerald was slightly stunned.
Audrey, who rarely put on makeup, was carefully dressed up. She put on light makeup, which made her delicate face flawless.
The hemline of her dress reached her knees, revealing her fair calves.

She held a handbag with two small boxes in her hand
When Audrey saw Gerald, she smiled slightly She walked in front of Gerald, turned around, and asked, “How do I look like? I’m
pretty, right?”
Gerald’s Adam’s apple rolled. He said, “Sure, you are pretty Don’t give yourself away later”
“Don’t worry “As Audrey spoke, she handed the two small boxes to Gerald Then she held Gerald’s
arm and said, “Let’s go. Let’s go to see my future parents-in-law
Gerald wondered, shit! She is in character so quickly
He took the two wooden boxes and frowned. “What are these?”
“These are gifts for your parents. A necklace for your mother and a watch for your father” Speaking of this, Audrey’s heart ached,
and she said, “They cost me tens of thousands of dollars!”
“That much?” Gerald asked in surprise
“Well, just take it as a favor in return.” Audrey curled her lips and said, “Didn’t you say you wanted to make it more realistic? This
is generous enough, isn’t it?”
Gerald smiled and said, “Absolutely
He stopped a tax, and then they headed for the Kenneth’s house
When they reached the door of the Kenneths house. Gerald paused for a moment. Then, a strange expression appeared on his
face
He heard that there were many people in the house.
“Why hasn’t he come yet?” Mason’s voice was heard from the inside.
“Come on, Mason. Why are you so anxious? Didn’t he just call and say that he was on the way
home?”

This was Gerald’s grandmother’s voice
Other than that, Gerald also heard Jolie, Lilia. There were at least seven or eight people in the
house
He was going crazy
Gerald had thought that he was just bringing Audrey to meet his parents. He had not expected his parents to bring most of their
relatives over
“What’s up? I am not even shy, but you are ” Audrey saw Gerald stopping his footsteps and asked in
surprise
Gerald looked at Audrey and said, “This is too difficult. My home There seem to be many people
inside”
Audrey curled her lips and said, “So what? It is not like I am not presentable Just go in openly”
With that, Audrey became serious and then revealed a hint of a smile. Thus, she had changed from a mischievous girl to a
gentle and virtuous lady
Gerald was slack-jawed
When he first met Audrey. Audrey was reticent, like a cold goddess.
After contacting her in private, he found that Audrey was completely different from before She
was a little mischievous and quick-witted.
Now she came to meet Gerald’s parents, and she turned into a soft and virtuous lady
Gerald sighed in his heart, it is a pity that you are not an actress. Then he took a deep breath.
Gerald led Audrey to walk toward the door of his house
He opened the door with the key When the door was pushed open, it suddenly fell silent inside

Everyone inside looked toward the door, including Yazmin, who was busy in the kitchen.
When they saw Audrey, who held Gerald’s arm, entering the house, everyone was stunned.
“She is so beautiful,” Jolie murmured.
