Kate had been disappointed for a long time.
She didn't care about Roman's words and calmly finished her sentence.
"If I don't want Jerry to invest, he won't. That's a fact. So, Dad, if you want the money, don't expect me to help for free."
Roman's face darkened.
"What do you mean? You dare to talk back now? You want to negotiate with me?" He was furious, watching her act like someone who had just come into wealth.
He wanted to lash out, but he knew he couldn't do anything to her right now. He had no choice but to hold back.
"That's right. If you want my help, give me fifteen percent of Bently Corporation's shares. If not, I'll rely on Jerry alone. That way, I'll never go hungry!"
"Fifteen percent of the stock? You must be dreaming, Kate Bently! What are you thinking? That's impossible!" Roman jumped up in rage.
If Ruby hadn't stepped in, he would have slapped Kate right there.
