I pursed my lips and gave no reply.
Indeed, a woman who took the words “quote your own price” at face value seriously should not be smart enough to hoard Fuller Corporation’s stocks. However, I needed to thank Thora for indirectly giving me an excuse. Otherwise, I would not be able to find a reason to reject the extra two billion she offered for no reason.
Our gazes locked for a while before Thora suddenly looked like she remembered something. She stood up abruptly, grabbed her bag, and turned around. After she took a few steps, she froze in her tracks and glanced back at me coldly. “I’ll change your mind.”
“I’m looking forward to it.” I pretended to look listless and leaned against my chair, looking like an ignorant hooligan.
Not staying for long, Thora exited the room.
Immediately afterward, I dialed Ashton’s personal number.
When he picked up the call, he spoke before me. “Did Thora look for you?”
I smiled and nodded. “You’ve already guessed it?”
“Pitcoin is so profitable now, but the Ziegler family can’t dabble in it. Considering how strong-headed Thora is, she’ll definitely not let this opportunity go. But since this is such a risky investment, she can’t possibly involve her company in it. Naturally, she’d want to use me. Since you’re the second-largest shareholder in the company, there’s no one else who she’ll look for,” explained Ashton calmly.
However, I was still puzzled. “Didn’t the Ziegler family collaborated with the Trivett family previously? Why didn’t the Trivett family rope them into partaking in such a profitable opportunity?”
It was only after listening to Ashton’s explanation that I understood the reason why the Trivett family fell out with the Ziegler family. It was all because of Mitchell.
