Chapter 127 Mutually Beneficial It was Ryan Phillips, my senior at university.
Coincidentally, we grew up in the same town.
I heard he had ventured abroad.
Besides that, I hadn’t received any news from him for many years.
I instructed Carol Adams, my assistant, to call him for an interview.
Carol was a veteran employee at Tanum Corporation.
Although she didn’t have a higher education, she possessed impressive business skills and memory.
She chose to stay with the company because of a conflict with Melanie.
Hence, I promoted Carol to be my assistant.
When I met Ryan, I could tell he knew I owned Tanum Corporation.
While delighted by the reunion, I didn’t beat around the bush, “You know it’s me, right?” He responded with a faint smile, saying, “I do.” “My company is modest in scale and might not align with your qualifications and experience,” I stated, “I must also clarify our salary may not meet the standards you’ve grown accustomed to in larger.
corporations.” He replied straightforwardly, “Let’s make a deal.
You can offer me company shares.
I’ll do my best, and this arrangement will be mutually beneficial.” Ryan’s bold proposal surprised me.
I wondered if he was after my company.
He noticed my reaction and chuckled, “What’s wrong? Are you hesitant to try?” I retorted, “In that case, you must provide a feasibility report.
Actions speak louder than words, and I don’t like empty promises.
Remember, I recently parted ways with someone ungrateful.” We laughed at my statement.
Before concluding the interview, Ryan assured me he would deliver his report within three days.
“I know some of the reasons for your divorce.
Don’t worry.
I’m not like that guy.
I’ll create the most value for the company and get what I want with my skills.” I felt ashamed because the whole city knew about my divorce.
