Theodore signed the documents without even reading through them and then put them aside. Seeing this, Maverick could not help but ask, "You're doing well now. You have the most shares. Will you go back to Godfrey Group?"
"Xavier is managing the company well so I don't need to go back. Besides, although my company is not that big in size, it's doing well. I have plenty of time to spend with my wife and children."
Maverick was thinking about teasing him. How old was Theodore? Why was he acting like an old, retired man?
If it went on like this, his fighting spirit would fade away.
"Don't you plan on striving for more since you're still young?"
"I've already enjoyed what I should enjoy and done the things I wanted to do. I don't have many regrets in life. The life I'm living now is actually nice." Theodore truly had no intention of pushing himself in his career. He had to return to Godfrey Group in the past because he had no other choice. It no longer was his ambition to do so.
Maverick picked up the glass on the table and took a sip. He did not say anything else.
When they left the place, they happened to meet Revainge and his business partners.
"Mr. Godfrey, long time no see."
"Mr. Folks, same goes to you. It's only been a few days since we last met, but you've gained quite a bit of weight." Theodore looked at Revainge, who looked chubbier than before, and could not help but say so with a hint of sarcasm.
Revainge smiled but did not reply.
On the other hand, Maverick felt that he looked familiar. However, he could not recall where he had seen him before.
"Theodore, I'll be leaving." Maverick patted him on the shoulder and left.
Theodore looked at Revainge from the corner of his eyes. He noticed a hint of shock in his eyes and could not help but feel suspicious.
"Are you here for contract discussions?"
"Mr. Godfrey, you don't need to know this."
"There's no need for me to know, but isn't it a little inappropriate for you to be staring at my friend like that?" Theodore's voice was cold as he spoke.
Revainge realized that his actions were not right, but did not explain himself. He just turned around and talked to his business partners.
Before entering, he sent a message to his secretary asking them to investigate the relationship between Theodore and Maverick.
Previously, when he sold the shares of Godfrey Group, Theodore should not have known Maverick, but now...
When he thought of this, he realized something. The anger within him rose in an instant.
"Mr. Folks, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. I just thought of something. Sorry, where were we?" Revainge almost forgot that his business partners were around.
When Theodore left, he called Moses to ask who the people with Revainge were.
They did not look like they were from around the area.
The next morning, Revainge saw the report on the table. It clearly stated the relationship between Theodore and Maverick.
He was truly furious. He finally figured out why Maverick had come looking for him. It turned out that Theodore had planned all this out. That d*mned Theodore; why was he always messing up his plans?
"In that case, you can't blame me for whatever happens next," Revainge said fiercely. Then, he took out his mobile phone which had important documents of Godfrey Group.
He was confident that he could destroy them.
A few days later, some of Godfrey Group's software were deciphered and leaked to the public.
Upon hearing this, Xavier was shocked and went directly to the technical department. "What's going on?"
"We don't know. Someone leaked the documents. We're desperately trying to stop them, but we didn't manage to stop all of them."
Xavier looked at the data on the computer with a gloomy expression on his face.
