Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 625

At the end of June, the Xanther Group announced a long-term cooperative agreement with the Aurora Group from Faldoria.

The two companies would jointly build a total of 57 laboratories in Cedonia and Faldoria, focusing on collaborative research and development within the realm of renewable energy. This represented the largest joint venture between private enterprises from the two nations in recent years.

The moment the news was released, the industry went into an uproar.

No one had expected the Xanther Group’s first project to be this huge, much less targeting the emerging field of renewable energy. Given the scale and ambition, it was clear that they aspired to become an industry leader.

However, it wasn't that surprising for a company founded by The Great Four to naturally not settle for second place. They would be the best in everything they did.

And indeed, the Xanther Group proved everyone right in the following days, it wanted to be number one.

It operated like a well-oiled machine, rapidly forming partnerships with major companies, both domestically and internationally. The company's value soared by the second, reaching heights in a single month that most companies could only dream of achieving in a lifetime.

Before the year ended, the Xanther Group had successfully passed the review conducted by the Securities Commission and stock exchange. So, they were listed on the Ace Stock Market.

It was only then that people realized that William wasn't joking when he mentioned in a seemingly casual manner during the Xanther Group's opening that he "hoped the Xanther Group would be listed on the Ace Stock Market this year", and that "they would ring the bell at the Danasq."

The night the Xanther Group was listed, many people in the industry couldn't sleep a wink.

A company developing at such a rapid pace was unprecedented. With such a substantial portion of the market captured by the Xanther Group, what remained for the others?

The more anxious people became, the better the Xanther Group looked.

At the end of the year, they held a grand annual meeting and celebratory banquet. They invited friends and family, with the media covering the entire event. Even Jayden felt it was too ostentatious.

He asked Elias, who was now the CEO of Xanther Group, "Who authorized the media's attendance?"

"Will," Elias responded.

Jayden was even more astonished. "I thought it was Charles. Since when did William like such extravagance?"

Elias shrugged, indicating that he didn’t know.

Jayden grabbed a cocktail and took a sip of it. "It's as if we're deliberately seeking attention."

At that moment, a woman watching the grand display on television quietly savored her tea. If they wanted fame, she would grant them their wish.
