“How much do you want?” Daisy drawled.
Lacey answered, “Two billion! That's my best price.”
Daisy merely smiled in response.
Seeing that, Lacey furrowed her brows and asked, “Ms. Daisy, why aren't you saying anything?”
“Let me be honest. The most I'm going to pay is this,” Daisy answered, raising a hand with five outstretched fingers.
With her furrowed brows, Lacey asked, “Five hundred million?”
Daisy shook her head. “Wrong. Fifty million.”
The sisters thought their ears were playing tricks on them.
What? Fifty million? Daisy is offering fifty million? This f*cking building itself is worth more than fifty million! Two billion is already considered low, but fifty million? We might as well just give her the company for free! Daisy is such a bully. When the company was doing good, it was worth a hundred billion. Even if it were to go bankrupt entirely, we're still not going to sell it for fifty million.
Lacey rejected the offer unhesitatingly, “No! We're not selling it at that price! Ms. Daisy, please leave. If that's the amount you're offering, we have nothing further to discuss!”
Smirking, Daisy said, “Think it through, though. Linton Group is worth less and less each day. Ten days
ago, it was worth five hundred million. Today, it's worth fifty million. In a few days' time, I think it's going to be worth merely hundreds! Haha!”
“Although Linton Group is bankrupt, it's still a company plenty of investors are eager to get their hands on, as it's still highly valued. If we don't sell it to you, there are still other interested parties.”
Daisy flashed an insincere smile. “Really? Ask around, then. Let's see who else is interested in Linton Group.”
Lacey knew something fishy was going on when she saw Daisy's smile. Is she playing a trick on me?
After giving it some thought, Lacey whipped out her phone and called Glen Kincaid, one of the people interested in buying Linton Group.
Glen had offered four hundred and fifty million for them.
When the call got through, Lacey greeted in a friendly tone, “Good morning, Mr. Kincaid!”
“Yes, Ms. Hinton? What do you want from me?” Glen sounded unfriendly.
“Mr. Kincaid, you told me you're interested in merging with Linton Group a few days ago, right? I would like to talk to you about—”
To her surprise, Glen interrupted her, “I'm sorry, Ms. Hinton. I'm not interested anymore.”
What? Lacey was stunned.
“But you've just called me yesterday and told me you wanted to acquire Linton Group, no?”
“Well, that was yesterday. I'm sorry, Ms. Hinton, but I'm hanging up now. I need to sleep.”
“Sleep? It's morning.”
“I had a late night, so I need to sleep now.”
With that, he hung up on her.
Lacey refused to accept that. She then called a few other investors who were interested in Linton Group.
However, all of them reacted the same way and gave her the same answer. None of them was interested in Linton Group anymore.
Right then, Lacey knew something was amiss.
She glanced at Daisy before mulling over it for a while. After that, she made another call.
She was calling a female friend of hers, who was very interested in Linton Group. Maybe I can find out what's going on.
“Lydia, are you busy?” Lacey asked.
“Hi, Lacey. Why have you suddenly called me?” answered Lydia, sounding nervous.
“What's wrong? I call you all the time, no?”
“Well, you usually call me after working hours. Why are you calling me during work today?”
“Well, to talk business, of course. Lydia, a few days ago, you told me you wanted to buy Linton Group, right? Would you like to have a discussion about that?”
