When they met in a cafe of the hotel, Erik looked at Nia up and down with arrogant look as soon as he saw her. In his opinion, the woman who was involved with his son was really plain and he couldn’t figure out why his son kept getting into trouble because of her.
“You are Nia?” Erik sat down across from Nia without any reservation. His attitude was arrogant. In his eyes, this woman, who was from an ordinary family, was not worthy of being polite.
Nia took Erik’s disdain for herself seriously, and sneered from the bottom of her heart. Later on, she didn’t know if she can keep up the high profile!
“I’m Nia Davidson,” Nia replied coolly. “Mr. Davies, nice to meet you.”
Erik sneered and, not wanting to waste time with Nia, asked directly, “You didn’t come all the way to San Francisco just to get to know me, did you?”
“Of course not,” Nia smiled. Knowing from Erik’s attitude that he didn’t know what had happened to him, she deliberately asked,
“Has you had any recent contact with your son?”
When Erik heard she mentioning his son, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said coldly to Nia,
“You can’t get anything out of my son, so you want something from me?”
“You two are so similar in character.” Thinking of what Spencer had said earlier, Nia couldn’t help but sneer. They were the same arrogant and self-righteous.
Sensing the sarcasm in Nia’s words, Erik immediately became more and more impatient. In a rough voice, he said,
“If you have something to say, say it. If you have nothing to say, don’t waste my time.”
“You’re a straight shooter, so I’ll get right to the point,” Nia said as she turned to Kevin who was behind her,
“Kevin, show the video to Mr. Davies and the reports by the way. Let’s see what he has to say about this.”
Erik listened to Nia’s words and looked suspiciously at Kevin, only to see that the man had placed his laptop on the table. There was already a video on the screen. Even though it had not been played yet, Erik immediately recognized his son who was facing the camera.
“Mr. Davies, I suggest you turn down the volume as much as you can while watching this video.” Nia smiled and raised an eyebrow.
Erik glanced at Nia. After thinking for a while, he raised his hand to turn down the volume on the video before clicking on play. As the video continued to play, time passed slowly. Erik’s expression became ugly and his vision became more and more terrifying.
Nia didn’t mind the fact that the other naked person in the video was her. She was leisurely sipping the coffee and occasionally taking a look at Erik’s hideous face.
The video time frame showed that it was more than an hour, but Erik closed the laptop after watching it for less than 15 minutes. He glared at Nia, who had a relaxed and smug look on her face, and said shamelessly,
“Nia, have you no shame? You’re showing me this video!”
“Am I shameless, or is your son shameless?” Nia smirked and gestured for Kevin to turn on the laptop,
“Kevin, search those reports and show Mr. Davies how his son is doing.”
“Yes,” Kevin replied respectfully. He then went to the table to search for the news that Spencer was in a cage for Erik to watch. As expected, Erik’s expression was even worse than before.
Erik was panic.
He originally thought that Nia wanted to use this video to blackmail him, but he didn’t expect that she had already “sent” his son to the police station before she came here. It was already three days ago when he read the report! Why didn’t anyone ever say anything to him?!
“I guess you don’t know, but now you know why I’m here.”
Erik was no longer as arrogant as he had been before. Realizing that the woman in front of him was holding on to his son, his eyes turned cold, and his mind raced to find a solution. Just like his son’s, he quickly thought of the most direct way to kill Nia.
“By the way, let me remind you that I have submitted this video to police station,” Nia noticed the chill in Erik’s eyes. She knew that he was trying to kill her, but she wasn’t afraid. She even said it deliberately and casually,
“Even if I don’t exist in this world anymore, your son will be sentenced, and he will be the first suspect if anything happens to me. So if he wants to get out of this, unless I take the initiative to withdraw the charge, there is no other way.”
“What do you want?” Knowing that Nia had come prepared, Erik didn’t want to waste any more time talking to her, so he asked her directly.
“Amasun Group’s 10 percent stake. As soon as I get it, I will withdraw the charge on the same day.”
“Are you out of your mind?!” Erik sneered without hesitation. The crazy woman wanted shares in Amasun Group?!
“Am I out of my mind?” Nia laughed so hard that she slapped the table as she asked Erik,
“Am I out of my mind, or is your son out of his mind? He knows that I hate him, yet he keeps giving me this kind of evidence. I don’t want justice. I just want money. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come to you. Let’s not discuss other possibilities because it can be solved with money.”
“I can give you money if you want, but Amasun Group shares, absolutely not!” Erik rebuffed.
“I wonder how Spencer would feel if he hears you say that,” Nia sneered,
“Your son is in prison now. Not only can he not get out, but he is notorious. If I don’t withdraw the charge, he will face imprisonment for nearly ten years. Even if he is lucky enough to survive in prison, he’s no longer young by the time he comes out. When that time comes, if he wants to stage a comeback, it depends on whether others will give him a chance. But you, as his father, actually value a mere share of the company more?”
Nia said exactly what Erik was thinking, and yes, he can’t afford the consequences. He was not a young man anymore. He was waiting for his son to inherit the company, and getting the family fortune back required his son’s planing. If he went to jail for ten years, the years gone by can never be replaced with money, and the advantages they now had would be long gone, and may even become nothing.
But… ! 10 percent shards of the company! How could he bear that?
Seeing Erik’s hesitation, Nia hid her thoughts in her eyes and said softly,
“Mr. Davies, I’m only in San Francisco for two days. It’s already been a day. When I get back, the police are going to make me convict Spencer. It’s up to you whether or not Spencer could get away.”
