Blind Date Turned Proposal

Josie undoubtedly caved under such silence.

She broke the silence with a strained voice. “So your true purpose wasn’t Carter Group. It was Wyatt.”

Dexter was playing with his wineglass with his bony hands. “Once Yanis’ process was done, it was only natural to recover the value.”

He had deliberately let go and given Wyatt authority but wouldn’t let Wyatt truly occupy the market. He had tormented Wyatt to reclaim the power.

Josie took a deep breath. “Wyatt’s company can’t go on the market, and he agreed to allow the overseas company… no, to let Russell Group into the board of directors. We will let you into the general shareholders’ meeting, but you can’t touch his position. His position must be safe.”

Dexter was raising his glass to his lips, and he paused. The corners of his lips twitched, and he said contemptuously, “When the market opens tomorrow, the stock prices will continue to drop. The shares he owns will become a worthless sheet of paper. What leverage do you have to make demands?”
