A look of astonishment crossed Rachel's face, but it quickly disappeared.

The impasse made Rachel lose hope of acquiring the Bennet Group's shares. Moments ago, she had been certain Victor would reject her offer on the spot.

However, to Rachel's surprise, Victor had verbally indicated he was considering selling the Bennet Group's shares to her.

Rachel tried to read Victor's expression, but the indifference in his eyes left her at a loss for words. She couldn't tell what he was thinking. "Thank you, Mr. Sullivan. I'll await news from you. Rest well; I wish you a speedy recovery."

Rachel steeled her resolve and looked away. Not even Victor's thoughts on the matter would dissuade her from taking back the shares from him.
