Chapter 797 Since He Couldn’t Avoid It, Why Bother Hiding?
“Then what should we do next?”
B
The man’s eyes fell on the computer screen in front of the desk. It was full of red and green lines, as well as all kinds of codes and numbers. It was today’s stock market.
He tapped his index finger on the table silently. After thinking for a long time, he said, “Now that the project has been maliciously interfered with by Bert, it may be a little difficult to go public. Send the person in charge to negotiate with them and come up with an acquisition plan. We can give them independent management rights. We will only participate in the dividends at the end of the year and be a shareholder.”
Benjamin was a little surprised. He had never heard of an acquisition proposal from Huston before, so he couldn’t help but worry. “President Lloyd, in fact, this project is not absolutely necessary…”
He shook his head. “Don’t worry, I’m not being impulsive. This is my plan B.”
“But if it’s acquired, the risk we need to bear will be greater.” Benjamin raised his hand and pushed his eyeglasses. He was still a little worried. After all, he had never participated in the acquisition for so many years. This was a fundamental
adjustment.
“Don’t forget what I used to do,” Huston said meaningfully.
Only then did Benjamin remember that this man had another identity. A lawyer, and a famous one at that.
After working with him for so many years, he had almost overlooked his other skill. It made sense. If he had been impulsive or unwise, how could he have made such a good investment in just three to four years?
Perhaps, his worries were unnecessary.
“I’m sorry, President Lloyd. I’m just worried that Bert will make trouble during the acquisition.”
“Of course I’m going to make trouble, but since I can’t avoid it, why should I?” He was like this. The harder it was, the more he wanted to challenge it.
He would not give up his project, nor would he act on impulse. His smart brain would not allow him to do this. He had to do
better.
He was busy dealing with a lot of things in the company until seven o’clock in the evening, he had not eaten or drunk much. After signing the contract, there was still a meeting. After the meeting, he had to communicate with the heads of various departments of the company. After a few hours, he felt tired so he stopped.
He didn’t talk much, but he talked to each person and the total time is not short. His throat was a little sore.
He raised his wrist and looked at the time, calculating the situation on the other side of the phone. He made a call to Evelyn. As soon as the call was put through, he heard a lively voice coming from the other side.
In the laughter of Lucas, Lucy, and Ben, a woman’s anxious
voice came. “Hello?”
His fatigue and tension of the whole afternoon dissipated in her soft voice. He pulled his collar and asked, “What’s the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?”
“No, I was just frying the steaks when I heard your phone ring. I ran over to pick it up.”
The man raised his eyebrows. “Beef steaks?”
“Yes.” As she spoke, she glanced at the beef steaks on the table and asked, “Have you eaten yet?”
Her words of concern were like a clear stream flowing into her heart. Huston replied honestly, “No, I was busy the whole afternoon and only managed to get some free time.” NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
“Huh?” She glanced at the clock on the wall. “It’s almost seven o’clock. Why don’t you eat?”
“I don’t have time. We’ll see.”
If he said that, he probably wouldn’t eat it.
Evelyn sighed helplessly. “You should at least eat something. How can you starve yourself?”
Instead of answering, he asked her, “What time will it be over?”
“We’ll leave after dinner. Let’s talk at 8:30.”
At 8:30 p.m., there was still one and a half hours left. He didn’t feel uncomfortable having a meeting for so long, but now he felt that time was passing too slowly.
