Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 461

Sophie's cunning plan had worked wonders, and a light smile appeared on Gordon's face as he said, "If Ricardo knew how you've played him, turning all his invested funds into thin air, he wouldn't let you off easily."

"It's just a few billion, after all. The CEO of the Cloude Corporation should hardly hold a grudge over that, right?"

Sophie said this aloud, but she had long anticipated that Ricardo would eventually realize this was all her scheming.

While there were business dealings between Aldridge Global and S Corporation, Ricardo was unaware that she held the reins at S Corporation. Thus, he didn't know she had orchestrated the scheme to poach Aldridge Global's trainees and hollow out the project.

Secrets couldn’t stay secret forever though. After all, she had boasted in front of Ricardo, which would surely make him cautious and suspicious.

But it didn't matter. She was ready to take Ricardo head-on.

Gordon mentioned, "Those trainees cost me quite a bit."

"Is a few billion not enough to cover your training expenses?"

Sophie sat in front of Gordon, replying, "I promise you. Once these trainees make their debut at S Corporation, I will provide Aldridge Global with the compensation it deserves."

"I'm a businessman. I'm only interested in the numbers." Gordon extended a hand, saying, "I want this number."

"One billion?"

"Within two years, ten billion."

Ten billion?

Sophie frowned. "Mr. Gordon, you're really asking for the moon."

Although trainee projects were making money, ten billion was no small sum. To net ten billion in profit, they would have to create the hottest group in the frontline.

"I believe you can achieve it, especially since you've taken away the trainees Aldridge Global had meticulously selected."

"Alright, I agree. Ten billion it is." Sophie also extended her hand, and they sealed the deal with a high five.

Meanwhile, Ricardo was in his villa, reading the documents brought by his secretary, his eyes filled with a cold intensity. "You're saying the trainee project has been destroyed?"

"Yes... We received news from Aldridge Global, claiming that all the trainees have defected due to complications in the program! Apparently, Julian led the charge, and Aldridge Global had to pay a hefty penalty to the production team. Most crucially, James withdrew his investment yesterday! Now, our investment is probably..."

Remembering the words Sophie had boldly said to him that day, Ricardo's eyes narrowed dangerously. "Sophie..."

"Sophie? How could it be Sophie? Russell Enterprise went bankrupt a long time ago."
