After Rebirth I Married My EX- Husband's (Enemy Laurel) novel Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Set a Trap for the Scott Family
Everyone in the Scott family was stunned.
They didn’t expect Laurel to say that.
Laurel was a little embarrassed by their line of sight. “What did I say wrong? I thought you kept saying that you would pay my family back because you didn’t want to take advantage of us. That’s why I suggested an IOU. Outsiders can know that you’re a trustworthy the Scott Group, so you won’t be criticized when the word gets out.”
Wilbert realized something.
Wilbert was a little annoyed back then. He didn’t expect that showing the Scott Group’s strength would cause him to be misunderstood.
But was that misunderstanding?
Wilbert wasn’t sure anymore.
But Laurel looked sincere. Laurel had always been very obedient to the Scott family, so Wilbert felt Laurel couldn’t have bad thoughts.
Think of this, Wilbert hurriedly said, “Of course, Laurel, an IOU is necessary for the money borrower. Even if you didn’t say
that, I will do that myself.”
Laurel smiled very brightly.
Back in that year.
Chapter 15 Set a Trap for the Scott Family
The Laurel family indeed provided the Scott Group with 320 million dollars.
But the Scott family never said anything about paying back. the money.
How could Laurel let them take advantage of her family in this life?
Wilbert immediately asked the ser vant to bring a pen and paper. “I’ll write an IOU.”
Then he wrote so.
He handed it to Irvin and said, “Irvin, if there is nothing else to add, I will sign it.”
Irvin Lambert took it over and checked it with Laurel.
Laurel put on a puzzled face and said, “Irvin, you only mentioned borrowing 320 million dollars from us, but you did. not specify the term of the repayment period. Neither did you.. say what if you failed to pay us back in time. I don’t think this IOU works.”
Laurel’s seemingly innocent words embarrassed Wilbert.
She ignored Wilbert’s embarrassment and handed the IOU to Bruno. She asked with an innocent look, “Bruno, you know everything. Mind if taking a look?”
Bruno didn’t know what to say when asked by Laurel in this way.
If Bruno approved Laurel’s words, it would bring shame to his father. If he refuted Laurel, he would be breaking his words.

Wilbert had to explain immediately. Sorry, I have never written an IOU, so I don’t know the proper way to write it. I’ll add the term of repayment, and it would be…”
Laurel said, “Half a year later should be okay.”
Wilbert still hesitated about saying three years or five years later. He was surprised by Laurel’s demand.
“I just saw an external financial report of the Scott Group a few days ago. During the first half of this year, the Scott Group’s net income is 610 million dollars. In the latter half of the year, the company’s performance is going well. You’re supposed to generate more income,” Laurel clearly said.
Wilbert smiled awkwardly. “Laurel, I did not expect you’re interested in financial news.””
“Our two families’ companies are both on the list, so I’ve watched it a few more times.” Laurel sweetly smiled.
“Well, I’ll write six months then.” Wilbert gritted his teeth to write the deadline.
Laurel looked and suggested, “If you can’t pay back in time, then use the shares of the Scott Group as the collateral.”
Wilbert’s hand was visibly stiff.
“A few days ago, I met Shelley, the daughter of the chairman of Cooper Bank, and she is my bestie. She said you used the Scott Group’s shares when you applied for the bank loans in their bank. She also said that you loaned 864 million dollars by mortgaging 18% of the Scott Group’s shares. According to

the market value, 320 million dollars’ debt deserves a mortgage of 6.67 percent of your company share,” Laurel said while doing the calculation as if just stating a fact. Her face was full of innocence.
Wilbert’s face sank no matter how hard he tried to suppress his feelings.
Irvin Scott finally saw through her daughter’s mind.
Laurel planned to step by step set a trap for the Scott family and forced them into it without any chance to refute or refuse.
The Scott family was indeed short of money. Without the Lambert family’s investment, the Scott family would have. difficulty securing their company. They didn’t dare to fight, with the Lambert family.
Besides, Laurel had such a calm, natural appearance.
If they refused Laurel’s proposal, it would be clear that didn’t want to pay back the money. The Scott family couldn’t afford to be so shameless.
Irvin secretly smiled. He was surprised about Laurel’s smart mind.
She managed to put the Scott family in a dilemma.
“Did I do the math wrong?” Laurel showed doubt about herself, seeing Wilbert stop writing.
She said that on purpose.
She didn’t say that her proposal upset the Scott family.

She conducted the calculation again.
Wilbert raised his head to look at his son.
Bruno was also embarrassed by Laurel.
But they didn’t have another choice.
If the bank refused to give them funds, they could only rely on the Lambert family. Refuting Laurel’s demand would mean declining the Lambert family’s capital investment.
She was forcing them to agree.
Wilbert was experienced enough to know Laurel’s meaning.
He gave his son Bruno a look just to remind him to punish Laurel in their married life.
Wilbert didn’t care if Laurel meant it by her heart or not.
She didn’t deserve a happy marriage after embarrassing the Scott family.
Bruno understood Wilbert’s meaning and nodded.
Wilbert rewrote the IOU and said, “Laurel, you’re right. It’s 6.67 percent of shares.”
He finished the whole IOU.
Laurel saw the IOU in black and white. Determined that she had fulfilled her purpose, she said in a praising tone, “Irvin, your handwriting is so nice. Our baby must learn the handwriting from you!”
“You’ve thought about the baby before getting married.”

Blanca scolded Laurel in an adoring tone.
“I’m looking forward to a grandson,” Elise said, “Or a granddaughter. That would be nice.”

The two families looked happy as if the trouble in getting the IOU didn’t exist.
The Lambert family left after having dinner at the Scott’s place.
Laurel went to the bathroom before leaving.
She walked out of the bathroom and went through a corridor that led to the back garden at the Scott’s place. Laurel took a few steps and stopped.
She heard Nellie speaking to someone on the phone.
Nellie’s voice was quite low, but Laurel could still hear her clearly.
“Help me to ask Nathan out. I heard he went back.” Nellie’s tone was domineering.
Nellie was used to commanding everyone.
She was overconfident about herself, assuming no one was better than her.
“Not tonight. Bruno’s girlfriend came tonight, and she’s still here. I would be scolded by my father if I left earlier.
“You think Laurel is beautiful? Yes, she is. But anyway, she is at the disposal of Bruno. You have no idea how humble she is in front of Bruno. When she marries Bruno, I can get her to wash my feet. Don’t you believe me?

“Alright. A bet is fine. Don’t break your word when I post the phone one day.
“Deal.”
Laurel left the corridor with a cold face.
It turned out that Nellie acted cute and asked Laurel to wash her feet only to embarrass Laurel in front of Nellie’s friend.
Great.
Laurel hated the Scott family for another reason.
