“Some financing, I think. He is preparing to expand the company.” I didn’t know much as well, so I merely told her the key points.
Fuller Corporation was already a listed company, so all of their financing development was public knowledge. There was nothing secret about it at all.
“Financing now?” Emery seemed to be rather surprised as she remained rooted to the spot, exclaiming agitatedly, “They have been in K City for barely a year, and there is no telling whether they can get used to the development here. Ashton is too impatient.”
“He should have his own plans, I think.” Ashton was not the type of person who did things on impulse. Otherwise, he would not have brought Fuller Corporation to its present height.
“What plan? He is just too rash.” Emery waved her hand in disagreement and sighed annoyedly. “What does Ashton take this market to be? Just because he managed to rustle up a few huge deals these few years, he thinks he can put down roots here on this premium land? Scarlett, you’re his life partner, so you should remind him that the Moores are not the only family in K City. He has gained so much fame lately that there are countless jealous people out there waiting to stab him in the back!”
I frowned. Indeed, she was more far-sighted than I could ever be.
What Emery said was an undeniable fact.
Due to his relationship with the Moore family, the business tycoons in K City were all courteous to Ashton on the surface.
However, Fuller Corporation’s development had definitely taken up some of their market shares. No one could laugh at the face of a smaller piece of the pie.
Ashton had been the center of attention the moment he arrived at K City. Hence, there was a possibility that the other businessmen who had suffered losses would collude against him.
