Rubus looked at Gilmore with a smile on his face and said, “Mr. Reed, yesterday you gave me a piece of rare ceramic, which left nie unsure of how to express my gratitude.

“Since I have some free time tonight, I decided to visit Mr. Reed and hope to open my heart and be friends with you.”

Gilmore knew very well that Rubus didn’t come to be friends, but rather for a 50% stake in his company.

However, he didn’t expose Rubus intentions and replied, “Mr. Vergil, that piece of ceramic is not something of great value. Please don’t take it too seriously.

“What’s most important is that Mr. Vergil recognizes me as a friend”

In the living room, Gilmore and Rubus exchanged polite words while Claire and the other three couldn’t help but feel confused.

They thought. “Do these two only exchange these pleasantries in one evening?”

“Mr. Reed, you are truly the most generous friend I’ve ever met

“Mr. Vergil, you flatter me.”

Suddenly, Rubus looked at Gilmore with sincerity and said, “By the way, Mr. Reed, I came today not only to thank you for yesterday’s gift but also to discuss a cooperation opportunity with you.”

Gilmore inwardly rejoiced that they were finally getting down to business.

He pretended to be somewhat surprised and said, “Mr. Vergil, am I hearing correctly?

“You want to cooperate with me, but didn’t you say yesterday…”

Rubus laughed and said, “Mr. Reed, I indeed wasn’t prepared to agree to your proposal yesterday, hence my hesitation. “However, after careful consideration last night, I believe that cooperating with Mr. Reed will be a delightful endeavor.” Gilmore appeared pleasantly surprised and said. “Mr. Vergil, your words truly moved me.

“I also believe that working with you will be a very pleasant experience.”

Rubus nodded confidently and asked, “By the way, Mr. Reed, did you buy shares of my Kenda Company and Danald Company today?”

Gilmore didn’t deny it and replied, “Yes, Mr. Vergil, both of your companies have great growth potential, so I bought some shares.

Upon hearing this, Rubus thought to himself, “The shares you bought have already accounted for a 30% stake in both of my companies. And you call that buying some shares?”

Of course, Rubus wouldn’t show his thoughts and instead smiled at Gilmore, saying, “Mr. Reed, could you sell some of the shares you bought to me?

These two companies were built from scratch with great effort, and I don’t wish for them to fall into someone else’s hands.”

Rubus was expressing his true feelings.

Although he knew that it would be impossible to regain a 50% stake, he had to take back control of the company.

Gilmore’s expression turned serious as he looked at Rubus and said, “Since Mr. Vergil has made the request, I will naturally show some respect.

“However, Mr. Vergil, I also have two conditions that I hope you will agree to.”

Runs said, Please go ahead, Mr. Reed.”

Gilmore continued. “As I’ve mentioned before, Kenda Company’s CEO, Sterne, must be kicked out of the company

Without waiting for Gilmore to finish, Rubus immediately said, “Mr. Reed, please rest assured, I will make sure Sterne leaves the company tomorrow.”

Gilmore nodded and said, “There’s one more thing After Sterne leaves Kenda Company, my girlfriend Claire must be the

new CEO

Rubus couldn’t help but look at Claire sitting on the sofa.

He could kick Sterne out of the company, but letting Gilmore arrange for his girlfriend to be the new CEO of Kenda Company made him worried.

“Mr. Reed, the CEOs of Kenda Company and Danal pany have always been selected from the top talents of the management teams of both companies. Having Miss Carter assume this position out of the blue might cause significant objections among the management, which could harm the company’s operations. Rubus said, looking at Gilmore.

He hoped that Gilmore wouldn’t insert someone into his company, especially in such an important position as the CEO.

Gilmore smiled and said, “Mr. Vergil, please rest assured. The reason I want Claire to be the CEO of Kenda Company is to control your company.

“I recommend her because she indeed has the management ability, and under her leadership, Kenda Company will only improve, not worsen.”

With a serious expression, Gilmore continued, “And Mr. Vergil, don’t forget that I have invested a huge amount of capital in both of your companies.

“I don’t want all my investments to go down the drain. I also hope to reap substantial profits.”

After hearing Gilmore’s words, Rubus looked into Gilmore’s sincere eyes and suddenly understood that his concerns were

unnecessary.

Gilmore had a much bigger vision than him.

What he saw was Gilmore trying to control his company by inserting someone, but Gilmore’s intention was to let Claire. who had the ability, lead Kenda Company to a better future.

Rubus regained his composure and said to Gilmore, “Alright, Mr. Reed, I agree to both of these matters.

Gilmore’s face lit up with a smile. He said, “Thank you, Mr. Vergil

He took out a document from the drawer under the table.

It was a stock transfer agreement.

Seeing this, Rubus couldn’t help but be surprised and looked at Gilmore. “Mr. Reed, did you know that I would come to you?”

Gilmore smiled and replied, “Mr. Vergll, since you rejected my offer to invest in your company yesterday, I knew you wouldn’t want anyone to share the company’s equity with you.

“So when I bought the stocks today and obtained a fifty percent stake, how could you not come?

Rubus laughed. He indeed never expected that Gilmore, whom he had only met yesterday, could understand his character

so well.

He didn’t know what to say

Gilmore pointed at the agreement on the table and said. “Til transfer twenty percent of the stocks to you, so you will still have absolute control over the company.”

Upon hearing this, Rubus was momentarily surprised and couldn’t find words to respond.
