Chapter 309 An Unknown Call
Sarah blinked her eyes in confusion. She did not understand what Jasmine meant. "Sister, what do you mean?"
"I originally wanted to bring you to the company today and directly confront them. But I never would have thought that they would do this. It seemed that Vivian and Dowson wanted to hold a press conference to announce that Dowson has become the chairman of Cooper Group. But they would not have expected that, these reporters were the first to be taken up by the two of us.”
“Don't worry, I know what I just said now. Also, think about Captain Brook's appearance in the company. Even if Dowson Bates really wanted to publish it, they had to think twice! Those reporters were not easy to fool. If they try to do anything, they would surely be discovered. This time, they will have a good end! Hmph!"
Jasmine thought about the situation just now and her eyes squinted.
"Then what you mean is. . . They will probably not hold a press conference today?" Sarah looked at her with anticipation.
"If I were Dowson Bates, I definitely would not! I have already told everyone that Chairman Cooper woke up. If they heard what I said now, the other shareholders won’t sit quietly. And that Dowson Bates is an old fox. Now the shares in your hands and Chairman Cooper's are definitely much more than the shares in his hands. So Dowson won’t do anything impulsively. And now with Captain Brook's help, I think we will be able to see Julian soon."
Sarah heard Jasmine's words and looked at her gratefully, "Sister, thank you so much! If I were alone, I definitely wouldn't be able to beat them!"
She did not know anything about the company's matters. Since she heard about the company's matters yesterday, her mind was in a mess. She did not know how to retaliate at all.
Now that Sarah had Jasmine's help, she saw hope again.
Jasmine looked at her expression and smiled. "Silly girl, are you being polite with big sister?"
Sarah smiled. Just as she was about to say something, she heard the phone in her bag ring. Sarah took it out to take a look.
It was a call from an unknown number.
"Who called?" Jasmine looked at Sarah's expression and asked.
"Sister, I don't know it. It can't be a reporter, right?" The scene that the two of them had just experienced, perhaps a reporter had already found out her number.
"It's fine. If it's a reporter, then give the phone to me. I want to hear what he says."
Sarah nodded, pressed the answer button, and put the phone beside her ear. "Hello."
"Hello! May I ask if this is Miss Sarah Wilson?" The voice of an unfamiliar man came from the phone.
"Yes! I am. May I ask who you are?"
"I am Chairman Cooper's personal lawyer. I have something important to tell you."
"You are Dad's personal lawyer?" Sarah was a little surprised to hear what the other party said.
"Yes! I have met you before. My name is Thomas Barrel. Does Miss Wilson still remember me?"
"Thomas Barrel? I'm sorry, I don't remember. . . "
"It's alright. You'll know me when I meet you. Where are you now? I must see you immediately."
"Wait a moment." Sarah immediately covered her phone and looked at Jasmine beside her and told Jasmine about the situation.
"Give me your phone."
Sarah passed the phone to Jasmine.
"Hello! I am Sarah's cousin and also the vice president of Wilson Group, Jasmine Wilson. Sarah is with me now. You can go directly to Wilson Group."
"Are you really Vice President Wilson?" Thomas Barrel, who was on the phone, was surprised. He did not believe it.
"Yes!"
"That's great. I will go to Wilson Group now."
"Alright! Go straight to my office."
"Got it, see you later.”
"See you later."
Jasmine hung up and returned the phone to Sarah. She looked at her and said, "It seems that this Thomas Barrel also heard some news. I wonder what he is looking for you for? I hope it will be a good thing. . ."
Sarah nodded her head and thought about when she had seen him before. But no matter how she thought about it, she did not remember when she had seen him.
The car quickly reached the lobby of Wilson Group.
When the car stopped, someone immediately walked over and opened the door for the two of them. Jasmine and Sarah got out of the car and prepared to walk towards the lobby of the company.
At this time, they saw another car quickly drive up to the platform in front of the lobby and stop behind Jasmine's car with a squeak. The door quickly opened and a middle aged man got out of the car. He looked at Sarah and shouted, "Miss Wilson!"
He was Ethan's lawyer, Thomas Barrel!
When Sarah saw him, she immediately felt that this person was indeed somewhat familiar, but she still did not remember where she had seen him before.
"Hello! I am Thomas Barrel!" Thomas walked up to the two of them and introduced himself.
Jasmine nodded. "Let's go. Let's talk in my office."
"Okay!" Thomas nodded and followed them into the company lobby, then walked to the elevator.
The three of them entered the elevator and watched as the elevator door slowly closed.
Sarah looked at Thomas beside her and still could not remember where she had seen him before.
"May I ask where we met before?" Sarah asked apologetically.
Thomas smiled. "Miss Wilson is really a person who forgets things when there are too many people. Do you remember when Chairman Cooper called you to his office a few months ago and gave you a bank card? At that time, he even asked you to sign a court certificate. . ."
Sarah heard his words and instantly understood and nodded. "Oh. . . I remember now! That day, Dad did give me a bank card and told me to deposit 10,000 yuan in it! When I went home, I gave the bank card to my mom. Later on, my mom told me that there were millions in that bank card. . ."
Thomas smiled. "It seems that Miss Wilson finally remembered me."
Sarah smiled with a red face. "I'm really sorry."
"It's alright."
Jasmine looked at the middle aged man and asked, "Is Lawyer Barrel looking for my sister because of
the Cooper Group?"
Thomas did not answer and just looked at Jasmine with some doubt. He then looked at Sarah and asked, "Is Vice President Wilson really Miss Wilson's cousin? Can you tell me about your relationship?"
Knowing that he was a lawyer and was cautious with his actions, Jasmine smiled, "Sarah's mother is the daughter that my grandmother lost back then. A while ago, my grandmother had already done a DNA test with Sarah's mother. In the end, they were biological mother and daughter. This relationship shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Sarah heard Jasmine's words and also looked at Thomas. She smiled and nodded. "Yes!"
"That means. . . The chairman of Wilson Group, Mr. Joseph Wilson, is Miss Wilson's uncle?" Thomas was still surprised by this news.
"Yes." Sarah nodded again.
While the three of them were talking, the elevator had arrived at its destination. The three of them exited the elevator and entered Jasmine's office.
"That's great. It seems that Chairman Cooper's decision back then was really right."
After Thomas heard what the two sisters said, he walked to the sofa and sat down. He took out a document and placed it on the coffee table.
Hearing Thomas's words, the two sisters looked at the information on the coffee table in confusion.
"What is this?" Jasmine asked in confusion.
Thomas looked at Sarah and asked with a smile, "Miss Wilson, do you remember the day Chairman Cooper gave you the bank card? Did the chairman ask you to sign a court document?"
Sarah immediately nodded. "Yes! At that time, I thought that this document might be something related to charity that the Cooper Group does every year. Could it be that this material was the one I signed back then?"
Thomas nodded. "Yes! This is the material you signed before. Take a look at what this is."
Thomas picked it up and handed it to her as he spoke.
Sarah took it the document and turned to look at Jasmine beside her. She then opened the cover.
Just reading a few lines, Sarah’s eyes immediately widened!
Jasmine saw Sarah’s expression and quickly took the document over. She stretched out her hand to open it and looked at it.
Just like Sarah, a few lines were enough to even a woman like Jasmine to widen her eyes in shock.
Jasmine looked at Thomas with a look of disbelief, "Is this true?"
Thomas smiled. "Of course it's true. The original copy of this material is in the safe of the Central Bank. This one is only a copy."
Sarah looked at the equity transfer letter in disbelief. "But. . . How is this possible? At that time, Dad was still fine and I did not get into the car accident. It was impossible for him to predict that something would happen to Cooper Group in the future. Why did he transfer it to me?"
"Chairman Cooper explained this to me. The reason why he transferred 30% of his shares to you was because he felt that he owed your father all these years.”
“When Cooper Group started its business, Chairman Cooper had suffered a painful lesson. At the time, the whole Cooper Group was on the verge of bankruptcy. That time, your father sold his only house to save Chairman Cooper and the Cooper Group. “
“Although the Cooper Group survived the crisis and Chairman Cooper paid off his debts, that time if your father didn’t help Chairman Cooper, there would be no Cooper Group present today. So Chairman Cooper always remembered it in his heart. Also, your father donated the cornea to Julian before he died, but Julian betrayed your feelings. These things made Chairman Cooper feel even more guilty towards your father and you.”
“Chairman Cooper always felt that you are kind and don’t covet Cooper Group’s property. He did this because he thought there would be problems in the company in the future. I didn't think that Chairman Cooper's actions would really save the company. I just heard the news from the company today. That's why I rushed over to look for you!"
After Jasmine heard Thomas's words, she immediately smiled and patted Sarah's shoulder. "That's great! It seems that this time, it would be appropriate for you to be the chairman of Cooper Group. You now have 50% of the shares! You are definitely a major shareholder in the company!"
Sarah looked at Thomas and asked, "If that is the case, then I can join the board of directors, right?"
Thomas smiled. "Not only can you participate now, you can also gather all the directors in the company and hold a board meeting."
Sarah immediately stood up when she heard that and anxiously said, "Then let's go quickly!"
Jasmine nodded in agreement and stood up, "Coincidentally there are reporters at the entrance of Cooper Group now. If we go back again, we will definitely let them have a good look this time."
Thomas also nodded and stood up. He said as he followed the two sisters.
"Vice President Wilson should bring more bodyguards. I'm afraid that someone will cause trouble today. . ."
"You're right." Jasmine nodded and took out her phone to make a call. She called a few of well-trained bodyguards to protect them.
When the three of them got down to the door of the lobby, all the bodyguards had arrived.
When the door opened, the three of them sat in succession. The car started up quickly and drove towards the Cooper Group!
