This group of foreigners did not seem simple, nor did they look like pure businessmen.
How did Eric get together with these people?
Before Nicole could dwell on it, Julie dragged Nicole away.
Grant noticed that the ladies ran away happily but came back lost in thought.
He looked at the two of them, but his hands were busy.
Grant wanted to ask them what was going on, but there were too many people around.
He coughed.
"You two, come over and help..."
Nicole paused and followed Julie over.
Grant looked at Nicole. "What happened?”
Nicole hesitated to speak because she did not know what to say.
Grant glanced at Julie. "Tell me."
Julie did not dare to hold back and told Grant everything she saw just now.
Grant's movements slowly stiffened.
His expression was sullen and cold.
"You weren't mistaken?"
Julie shook her head. "Definitely not!"
Nicole pondered for a moment and told Grant about the logo that she saw on the boat.
"Big Brother, Old Master Ferguson just passed away, so why would Eric return to Mediania at this time? I think that there’s something off about it. Moreover, Samuel and Clayton coincidentally left the country because of foreign issues. Is this all a coincidence?"
Nicole did not notice it at first.
However, now that she thought about it, why would Liberty suddenly encounter problems that only Clayton could solve?
The Lindstrom family's oil business in East Asia had been running smoothly for decades. Why would they suddenly encounter a tricky problem?
Why would Eric suddenly return to Mediania right after Old Master Ferguson was shot and killed?
Piecing these together, Nicole felt that these abnormalities should not be ignored.
This holiday was not that fun after all.
On the last day of her vacation, Nicole received a call from Lance.
She found it a little strange
Lance did not hesitate and spoke frankly.
"Ms. Stanton, there's something that I want to ask you about. I hope you won’t mind."
Nicole quietly listened to him finish.
The confusion that she felt for so many days suddenly cleared up.
Eric did not do anything himself. Instead, he contacted Lance, wanting a foreigner to participate in ten percent of the shares.
Of course, the conditions he offered were very enticing. Lance would not be at a loss.
However, Sheldon Corporation was merely a family business. Although it was a listed company, its capital basically came from partners that they were familiar with.
Lance was not interested in this bargain of having an unknown foreign power suddenly buy into their shares.
That was because he could not read Eric.
