Chapter 218
Tommy smiled slyly. “That’s my secret. If you want to know, you can investigate it yourself or work with me. You’ll eventually find out in the future.”
Brandon knew that he wouldn’t be able to get an answer from a big shot like Tommy if the latter didn’t want to reveal the truth.
Brandon moved on and asked, “Why did you choose to look for me during this period? I’ve just returned to the country and am preparing for Christmas. Aren’t you a little anxious to look for me now!”
Tommy smiled and snapped his fingers. “Good question. Well, that’s because the previous owner of this company was in a hurry to sell it before Christmas. It’s just nice for me to acquire it at this point.
“After I bought the company, I never managed it. The employees planned to stop coming to work after Christmas. I now have more than twenty resignation letters on hand
“Therefore, I need to confirm who the general manager of the company is going to be now. He will take over the company and deal with the problem of whether to keep the old employees
“Otherwise, if we recruit new employees after Christmas, we will fall into a passive position.”
Brandon had been working part-time since university.
He had done a lot of jobs and had interned at a proper company. He knew that the issue Tommy was talking about was indeed urgent.
After pondering for a moment, he said. “If you keep your word-just financing the company and not interfering with the company’s decision-making and management:-1 accept your offer.”
Brandon knew very well that it was now or never.
He was in no position to be picky now, and Tommy was a reliable person when it came to investing
“Very good.” Tommy snapped his fingers again and picked up another agreement. “This is our shareholding agreement. Take your time to go through it. You can also get a few lawyers to read it.
Brandon was very careful. He picked up the agreement and read it thoroughly.
The more he read, the more surprised he became
The agreement was overly friendly to him.
If the company made money, he would get half of the dividends. On top of that, he wouldn’t have to be liable for any losses or even take on any responsibility.
After reading it, Brandon slowly raised his head and said, “I’m thinking, what am I capable of to the extent that I get half the company for no reason?
“If I didn’t make any money, would I be cursed?”
Tommy was amused by Brandon’s words. “Haha, you’re overthinking the ramifications.
“For investors like us, investing tens of millions is like placing a small bet. If we win, our portfolios become more impressive, iwe lose, it won’t be a big deal, anyway. So, don’t feel too pressured”
Brandon was loss for words.

He eagerly wanted to air his annoyance.
Pursing his lips, Brandon regulated his emotions and looked up at Tommy. “Tll tell you one last thing. You can decide if you want to use me after you listen to it.”
Tommy picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth. Casually, he said, “Tell me
Brandon said calmly, “I was expelled from a university in Acloria, where I studied abroad, and I didn’t get my bachelor’s degree.”
Tommy said, “Oh, and there wasn’t a big reaction. “What’s the reason?”
“I don’t feel like giving you the details, but I swear and I can guarantee that I’m not the one in the wrong” Brandon was firm.
“That’s good enough. Tommy waved his hand. “I was bored when studying abroad, so I dropped out of school and became a venture capitalist. I’m earning a lot of money now, aren’t I So, what you just told me isn’t a problem.”
Brandon was dumbfounded
In the eyes of big shots, something that could almost kill him was nothing.
This was why Brandon was eager to keep climbing
Tommy waited for a while before asking. “Do you still have any other questions?”
After a few seconds of silence, Brandon suddenly asked. “Do you know my sister, Athena Donovani
Tommy was stunned for a moment before he revealed a look of realization. “Athena Donovan? The famous female SAT top scorer from West End? I heard that she is as pretty as an angel”
He stroked his chin and sized up Brandon with a playful expression. “So you’re Athena’s brother. No wonder…
“No wonder what?” Brandon questioned Tommy sharply.
Tommy smiled. “No wonder you look so smart that I wanted to invest in you the moment I saw you
Brandon almost rolled his eyes.
If he had known the response he would be getting, he wouldn’t have asked.
Brandon took out a pen and signed the agreement unhesitatingly
Tommy snapped his fingers again. Immediately, someone brought over an ink pad and a compact photocopying machine to photocopy their personal information
Tommy said, “Til complete all the procedures before the official holidays and make you the legal representative of the company. You’ll start going to the company tomorrow, okay?”
Brandon was very satisfied with Tommy’s efficiency. “Alright, I’ll contact these employees tonight and talk to them in person tomorrow. Those who are suitable will stay, and those who aren’t shall be let go.”
More than two months had passed since the plagiarism incident
During this period, Brandon’s days felt like years. He was muddle-headed and lived like a zombie.
Now, his entire body was filled with motivation. He felt that all the bones in his body were getting rusty, and they were crazily clamoring, wanting to make it big this time.
Tommy grinned. I like your efficiency”

An hour later, the two of them had signed all the agreements and discussed all the details. They shook hands and bade each other a friendly farewell at the entrance of the cafe.
Tommy smiled and said, “Donovan’s Restaurant has very nice lume-cooked dishes. I hope you can reserve me a table so I won’t have problems finding one every time I go there.”
“Sure,” Brandon was quick to promise, “but I also have a request, I hope you will agree to it, he continued.
“Go on”
“When you’re with me, can you be more succinct when you speak? Of course, unless it’s something complicated and needs. much elaboration.
Tommy was caught off guard.
He eventually replied with an awkward
