NovelFameChapter 1646:
Unable to bite his tongue, Ethan blurted out, “That's nonsense! | never agreed to invest in anything!”
Before he even arrived, Josh had already guessed they would pester him with their dull questions. He retorted,
“Is that so? If you never planned on investing, then why did you givethe money? Were you overflowing with
cash and decided to hand it out for free?”
Before Ethan could argue, Josh continued, “If it’s a gift, Ill gladly take it. Thanks, Ethan. That's one hefty
present.”
Disbelief colored Hamilton's tone. “A gift? Keep dreaming.”
Ethan snapped, “You twisted my words. You said it was an investment, and | fell for it.”
Smirking, Josh seized the moment. “So you admit it was for investment? Everyone here heard that, right?”
Lost for words, Hamilton ended up glaring over his shoulder. “Ethan, if you can’t talk straight, just keep quiet.
Stop making things worse.”
Ethan looked like he might break down any second. “I'm telling the truth! He tricked me, and now he won't own
up to it. | can’t take this!”
Daniela settled into her chair with her eyes wide as she took in the sight of Ethan, an adult man, being pressured
until he practically shrank into the corner.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe could not deny that the entire scene fascinated her more than she cared to admit.
Elbows propped on the table, Daniela studied the unfolding scene with a faint, amused smile.
“Let's get one thing clear. Ethan never agreed to any investment,” Hamilton said. “Do you have any paperwork
to prove it? Was there a signed contract? Without legal documents, this isn't a real investment. Now that he’s
changed his mind, you need to return everything.”
A low, dismissive laugh slipped out as Josh pulled a contract from his folder and let it fall to the table with a slap.
“So you want a contract? Here it is. Honestly, | don’t get why you're so hung up on these little details. You could
just relax and letmake you all richer.”

Josh fixed his gaze on Ethan, his tone suddenly turning almost wounded. “Ethan, after everything I've done for
you, this is what | get? Now you're teaming up with outsiders to grill me? The money was in your hands, and you
gave it towillingly. You beggedto let you in on this, practically idolized me, and now you've changed your
mind. I'd hand it back in a heartbeat, but it’s all tied up in the business now. Here's what | suggest—leave the
funds withfor a year. When the profits and dividends roll around, your share will be waiting. Sound fair?
We're all on the sside, aren't we? You really think I'd cheat you? Trust me, | don’t even need your pocket
change.”

something more to bring up? If not, |
