Loving DAD 1113

Chapter 1113 

As for Uriah, he had long stepped down from his position and no longer had the authority to mobilize such a vast amount of Malcolm Group’s capital. 

The Westin family–who had always maintained a close relationship with Sharon–had recently poured a massive investment into another major project. Their company accounts were practically drained, leaving them unable to offer her much help. 

From Silas’s perspective, if Sharon could scrape together even ten billion, that would already be her limit. 

After much deliberation, the three Kalen brothers–Rick, Scott, and Silas–reached the same conclusion: sooner or later, Sharon would have no choice but to come begging to the Kalen family for help. 

With that belief in mind, Silas’s arrogance swelled to its peak. 

Looking down at her from above, he sneered, “Sharon, you’d better apologize to me right now. The next time you come begging for my help, I won’t be so polite.” 

Sharon turned to Enzo, her expression cool. “Enzo, recommend a few top neurologists to Silas. Tell them to help him fix his brain before he embarrasses himself in public again.” 

Enzo nodded dutifully. “Understood, I’ll take care of it right away.‘ 

True to his word, he actually walked to the corner and instructed his assistants to contact the best neurologists they could find. 

Silas’s face darkened. “Go ahead and act arrogant while you still can, Sharon. Let’s see how proud you’ll be when you’re the one 

coming to me for money.” 

Sharon smiled faintly. “You might get your wish tonight, then. After all, dreams can make anything happen.” 

With that cutting remark, she turned and left, not sparing him another glance. 

After she was gone, Victoria–who had been silent until now–finally spoke. 

“She seemed awfully confident just now. Do you think… she actually has a plan to raise the funds?” 

Silas let out a disdainful laugh. “Who could possibly help her? Even if every one of her allies chipped in, she’d still be short nearly twenty billion. That’s not some small change you can conjure up by flapping your lips. And she’s supposed to do it in just a few days? Please.” 

He scoffed again. “Even if she tried dumping stocks, it’d be too late by the time the market reacted.” 

A rash liquidation like that would send the markets into chaos–no one would be foolish enough to do it. 

Scott nodded in agreement. “She’s got three days. Naturally, she’ll struggle till the very end. She won’t admit defeat until she’s staring at the coffin lid. Let’s just wait and watch.” 

Silas’s gaze hardened as he glared in the direction Sharon had gone. 

“She loves putting on a show, doesn’t she? When she finally comes crawling to us for money, I’ll make sure she gets on her knees and begs. Let’s see how arrogant she is then!” 

“Silas,” Victoria said softly, trying to calm him down, “you know what kind of person she is. Don’t push her too far. What if she decides to sell her original shares to someone else or worse, gives up on acquiring the Silverstone Group altogether?” 

Silas’s tone was unapologetically smug. “If she doesn’t acquire it, all the better for us. The Kalen family will step in and take over. Acquiring a portion of the Silverstone Group’s shares has always been part of our strategy anyway.” 

After Rick returned from the hospital, he had already told them that the Silverstone family intended to transfer a portion of their shares to Sharon. He had planned to use the opportunity to buy one percent of her original shares himself—the rest would be 

1/3 

treated as financial support for a fellow Kalen family member. 

If Sharon failed in her acquisition, the Kalen family would simply take over. Either way, they wouldn’t lose a thing. 

But none of them stopped to consider one simple question–just because the Silverstone family was willing to sell to Sharon, did that mean they’d sell to the Kalen family as well? 

At that moment, Silas’s expression shifted, his tone sharpening with calculation. 

“Still, you have a point, Victoria. Sharon may not be able to raise that kind of money herself, but if she attracts outside investors or sells some of her shares, she might actually pull it off. We can’t let that happen.” 

Both Scott and Victoria turned to look at him, uneasy. 

“Silas,” Scott warned, “don’t do anything reckless. Every time you’ve crossed paths with Sharon lately, you’ve ended up on the losing side.” T
