Tom Davis was earnestly persuading, “Boss, it’s actually quite simple to force them to collaborate with Miss Olsen. There’s really no need to take the acquisition route… When we established overseas forces, you once said that you would not target any Crera enterprises. Besides, you wouldn’t care about these domestic trifles, so why kill one thousand of our enemies only to harm ourselves by eight hundred p>
Lewis Horton casually said, “The Horton Group has come to Clance, and the balance among the five major families of Clance has been broken. Annihilating the Gill family would also smoothly secure a spot for the Horton Family as one of the Five Great Families p>
Tom Davis grimaced, “You are just looking for an excuse! Wouldn’t six great families be just as good p>
Lewis Horton glanced at the computer, “I think five sounds better than six p>
Tom Davis: p>
You are clearly doing this for Miss Olsen! Still looking for excuses here! It’s over the top!
They had planned to take it slowly with the acquisition, but today Helen suddenly went to the South Family, taking Miss Olsen out to apologize, and you got impatient!
He was about to continue speaking when the room door suddenly opened, and Kiera Olsen walked in.
Lewis Horton, who had just been acting cool, immediately transformed into a gentle gentleman the moment she entered, quickly standing up to ask, “Why are you back so late? Are you tired today p>
His tone then cooled as he asked softly, “Did the Gill family give you any troubles p>
Kiera Olsen waved a hand, “No, they are too grateful to even trouble me right now p>
Lewis Horton slightly startled, “What p>
Kiera Olsen then recounted all that had happened during the day, from her discovery of Nara Gill’s jade pendant possibly relating to the Gill family, to her seeking out Matias Gill, finding Nara Gill, going to the hospital rooftop, and forcing Lady Gill and Nara Gill to acknowledge each other.
In the end, she couldn’t help remarking, “I saw Lady Gill and Austin Gill’s faces, they didn’t look good. Naturally, having their daughter and sister who had been cherished all their lives treated so badly, they must be full of regret right now p>
Lewis Horton: “… So, have you settled the cooperation with the Gill family now p>
“Ah yes, I’ve given them the contract; I expect it’ll be signed in the next day or two p>
Before she could finish speaking, Kiera Olsen received a phone call. She answered, realizing it was from the director of Nora Research Institute: “Director Nora, the Gill Group suddenly sent sixty billion in advance to our company p>
Kiera Olsen:?
She was bewildered, then said, “Oh, keep it then, we were going to give it to them sooner or later anyway p>
“… Right, I’ll push for the contract from the Gill Group tomorrow then, they’ve transferred the money before we’ve even signed the contract p>
The director ended the call, and Kiera Olsen just shook her head slightly, then stretched, “I’m going to take a shower p>
It had been a tiring day!
After Kiera Olsen went to the bedroom, Tom Davis’s voice finally came from the computer, “Boss, do you think six sounds better than five now p>
Lewis Horton: “… Get lost p>
“Okay, then I’ll notify them to cancel the sanctions against the Gill Group p>
Lewis Horton didn’t hesitate and quickly closed his laptop, cutting off the chat with his subordinate!
At the Gill family.
The elder and the second of the Gill family hurried back from out of town and as soon as they entered, they asked, “What’s going on? Why is the Gill Group being sanctioned p>
“Yeah, who have we offended? Why have our overseas partners stopped cooperating with us p>
“Domestically we haven’t received news yet, but a few friends from abroad informed me that starting tonight, someone will short our stocks and acquire our company p>
“Who exactly is behind it all? They are so elusive p>
“Where’s mom? And our youngest brother? Why aren’t they home p>
When everyone was heatedly discussing, the eldest of the Gill family’s phone suddenly rang. He answered, and the voice of a business partner came through, “Director Gill, misunderstanding! This is really a huge misunderstanding p>
The eldest member of the Gill family was stunned, “What p>
The person on the other end of the line spoke up, “We made a mistake on our side. It turns out the big shot wasn’t targeting you all, ha ha ha, this was all a misunderstanding! He has verbally canceled the sanctions against you all! Our cooperation can continue as usual p>
All members of the Gill family: p>
What is going on p>
Are they playing with our feelings p>
However the Gill family felt like the sky was falling, or how suddenly there was light at the end of the tunnel, Lewis Horton didn’t care.
Even if it frightened them, it didn’t matter.
Who let the Gill family trouble Kiera before?
That evening, Lewis Horton was embracing Kiera Olsen from behind, the two lying on the soft big bed, whispering softly, “So, was Ellis Olsen really framed p>
Kiera Olsen nodded, “Yes, but I’ve already checked; the three doctors who examined my brother had no connections to each other. He completely found three people who would unlikely intentionally give him wrong results all at once, yet the results were still wrong. Don’t you find it strange? Why would people in the medical industry all tell the same lie p>
Lewis Horton’s eyes slightly deepened, and he suddenly looked down and spoke, “You know, there’s actually technological monopoly in this world p>
Kiera Olsen was startled and looked at him.
Lewis Horton casually said, “There are many unknown organizations and clubs in this world. Their purpose is to monopolize technology on the entire planet. As long as they hold the highest streamlined technology of any industry, they are essentially the king of that industry p>
Kiera Olsen bit her lip, “Do you mean to say, there is such an organization in the medical industry, and their king has ordered that Ellis Olsen must be diagnosed as sterile? So, in this world, all doctors dare not disobey p>
Lewis Horton nodded, “That’s a possibility p>
Kiera Olsen then spoke, “I think what you’re saying must be the truth p>
The South Family was so mysterious; she and Uncle Olsen had searched all over the planet for so long and found no trace. This shows, there indeed are many capable people in this world.
While normal people live their day-to-day lives, countless geniuses hide in the shadows controlling the economic development and technological progress of the entire planet…
While Kiera Olsen and Lewis Horton were wildly speculating, Lewis Horton’s phone suddenly rang.
He answered, and it was Old Mrs. Horton’s voice, “Brat, I’m already in Clance, when are you coming to see me p>
At hearing this, Lewis Horton smiled slightly, his gaze soft as he looked at Kiera Olsen, “Grandma, I’ll make time to come back p>
Old Mrs. Horton just hummed, then spoke again, “Brat, why do I hear that you’re engaged again? This time to the legitimate eldest daughter of the Olsen Family? How can you do this? It’s been less than half a year since your wife passed, and you’re getting engaged to someone else, aren’t you afraid she’d be sad p>
Lewis Horton was slightly stunned, then he helplessly chuckled after a pause, “Grandma, she won’t be sad, because she, more than anyone, would be looking forward to me getting engaged to the legitimate eldest daughter of the Olsen Family p>
As he said this, he leaned into Kiera Olsen’s ear.
Kiera Olsen glared fiercely at him.
Yet Old Mrs. Horton sighed softly, “Brat, your wife would definitely hope you could move on soon, but you shouldn’t move on in this way, should you? I heard that you’re sticking around that legitimate eldest daughter every day now? Even being her driver… You never fawned over your wife like this before p>
Lewis Horton: p>
He coughed, “Grandma, just speak, why are you attacking me personally p>
“Hmph, I don’t care, you’re just a simp! Also, I’m telling you, I won’t acknowledge your engagement with that legitimate eldest daughter! In my eyes, I only have one granddaughter-in-law p>
Old Mrs. Horton’s words carried a hint of petulance.
Lewis Horton suddenly laughed, “Grandma, how about I let the legitimate eldest daughter of the Olsen Family say hello to you p>
As he spoke, he moved the phone to Kiera Olsen’s ear.
