“Tell you what. Why don’t we call it a day, and you can send me an investment proposal when you get back? I will contact those who will make a good fit with Rove.” Kaze proposed an idea. These investors came with the intention to help. Although he did not need any help, there was no need to be hostile toward kindness. It was inappropriate to pick and choose a few while offending others for no reason. Though Kaze was not afraid of trouble, he wanted to avoid adding to his problems unnecessarily. Taken aback, Jeremy took a long, hard look at Kaze and replied, “Alright. That’s a good idea, Kaze. We’ll talk soon since you can’t decide with all of us here.” He then walked away without stirring a fuss. Adrian from Green Source Foundation and Archie from Yellow Stream Capital left thereafter. These three investors belonged to the most influential investment firms. They were confident they could offer something Kaze would be happy with. The other investors did not share th
“If you think South Hill Holdings don’t have enough means to sort out your problems, Peony Funds have you covered, Kaze,” a partner of Peony Funds said. With Dakota’s face falling, the investor said with a smile, “Don’t be mad, Dakota. We can’t fight with Red Mount Capital, Green Source Foundation, and Yellow Stream Capital. “Instead of letting these firms secure a partnership with Rove, we might as well band together and give Jeremy and the others a run for their money. “The profits will be shared, but so are the risks.” The tension in Dakota’s face eased. The investor from Peony Funds had a point. “You’re right. We can form a coalition.” “Count us in.” “That’s right.” The other investors expressed interest in allying. Red Mount Capital, Green Source Foundation, and Yellow Stream Capital had been dominating the scene for far too long. The other investors had longed for a chance to join up to compete against the big names. Dakota replied with a grin, “Alright. We wi
The partner of Peony Funds was not done talking. He held nothing back. “But Rove’s Mr. Lyfe made you the decision maker of Rove’s operating strategy, so we had to come to you. “You are in over your head to think you can hike up the price and manipulate us.“We might not hold absolute power in the financial market, but we have seen it all.” The other investors nodded in agreement. They did not think highly of Kaze when they found out who he was. Their impression of Kaze only went from bad to worse when they arrived on the scene of a dispute between Kaze and Tank at the supercar club. If they had not stepped in to intervene, Tank would have gotten his way with Kaze. Kaze even trashed the cars of the club members and refused to cough the money up. As the investors were there for Kaze, he made the club members sign a disclaimer. Kaze was nothing more than a hooligan. Anyway, these investors looked down on Kaze. He was just a moocher who lucked out. Kaze would never
Who could be so bold as to reprimand Dakota without mercy? The crowd turned to the source of the voice. A woman led a suited group into the club. Looking straight ahead, the woman approached and said in a cold voice, “Mr. Lee has always been with Hudson Investment Firm. When was he ever sacked? “You can be considered a known investor. Can’t you make up a better rumor? You are just making yourself look like a fool.” “Who are you calling a fool?” Dakota asked, his face grimacing. He was a big name in the industry. Yet, a young lady told him off in front of his peers. Dakota would not allow himself to be insulted. “Well, you just confirmed that yourself,” the woman responded. Leaving Dakota fuming, the woman proceeded ahead with the suited group in tow. The group of people lined up in two rows before Kaze. With the woman taking the lead, they nodded at Kaze. “I am Jennifer Barwise, the deputy manager of Hudson Investment Firm. On behalf of all the employees, we pl
In fact, Jennifer was shocked and excited the moment Rove went viral online. She could not believe Kaze actually generated buzz for Rove. Since Kaze worked at Hudson Investment Firm, he would surely want the investment in Rove to stay within the business. With the right execution, Hudson Investment Firm would be a top dog in the investment scene. However, she could not bring herself to beg for Kaze’s return. When the news about dozens of investors seeking Kaze reached her ears, Jennifer became restless and took the senior executives along to meet with Kaze. Kaze smiled pretentiously and teased, “So you are admitting you had a lapse of judgment and that Rove has potential?” “Yes, I was wrong. It proves you have a good eye.” Jennifer nodded. Kaze asked with a smile, “Was I making a huge mistake by proposing Hudson Investment Firm to invest in Rove?” Jennifer kicked herself. Had Hudson Investment Firm invested in Rove and saved the business from the brink of bankru
“You are turning out to be quite the guy, honey. The major firms are seeking to make you a partner.” As the car left Taurus Automobiles, Darcy sat in the front passenger seat excitedly. “I have always been quite the guy.” Kaze leaned toward her seat with a smile. “Do you want to know more? Kiss me, and I’ll tell you.” It was a great feeling to be admired by the love of his life. “Hey! Keep your eyes on the road.” Darcy pretended to be angry and pounded him in a light-hearted manner. Once they traveled at low velocity with fewer cars around, Darcy drew close to peck him on the cheek. “That’s a peck, not a kiss.” Kaze was not having it. Darcy rolled her eyes and replied, “Back to the subject of the matter, are you seriously not returning to Hudson Investment Firm? “Miru sent me a text, saying that you must stay in Hudson Investment Firm. Rove should make Hudson a shareholder.” To think the instruction came straight from Miru. Back then, Miru gave Kaze a job at H
“Get Miru to tend to us? That’s a great idea. I heard she’s one of the four most beautiful ladies in Lilyrose.” “It’s hard to split four gorgeous women between us three.” The two men with buzz cuts on each side laughed. “How dare you insult Ms. Scarlet!” Furious, Callum approached to apprehend them. “Die!” The man with a buzz cut lifted his leg for a kick. “Pow!” Struck, Callum spat blood and crashed to the ground. “Notify Ms. Scarlet. We have trouble in the lobby!” The employees of Lefteria Group shrieked in fright and pulled out their phones to alert the authorities. The hired muscles on the first floor rushed to the scene and started fighting without hesitation. “Here comes another group who is about to die.” Though outnumbered, the three men showed no fear and charged toward the crowd. “Wham!” “Argh!” Anguished cries echoed across the lobby as the fight ensued. When Miru caught wind and rushed over with backup, her men had fallen. “These three un
“Our boss sent me to give you a message, Mr. Lyfe. “Rove must only accept funding from Astral Wealth Management,” Charlotte said with a harsh tone.Hart snapped back. “Even Red Mount Capital isn’t demanding like you. I’ve never heard of Astral Wealth Management.” “That’s okay. Now you know.” Charlotte said condescendingly, “The heir of the great Glitter family, Astral Glitter built Astral Wealth Management from the ground up. “Mr. Glitter has been planning to conquer the financial market, and he needs a classic case to put Astral Wealth Management in the forefront. “It’s your honor that Mr. Glitter picked Rove.” Charlotte dumped a pile of papers on Hart. “This is Astral Wealth Management’s financing plan for Rove. You can read all about it, Mr. Lyfe.” Hart flipped through the financing plan before hurling the document to the ground in rage. “Is this even financing? This is daylight robbery. “The Glitters and Astral have no decency.” Unfazed, Charlotte said callousl
