Roy Lewis frowned, “In that case, wouldn’t we owe Hugo Camrey a lot of favors? Why not, I directly talk to Mr. Caroule instead?”
Richelle Dunn didn’t think it was a big deal, “It’s alright, I’ll give a thank-you gift to Mr. Caroule myself. I’m just asking Hugo to make the connection.”
Roy Lewis wanted to ask her what kind of thank-you gift she would give, but then he thought about it and figured that with this girl’s abilities, if she said she would give someone a thank-you gift, it would definitely be something no one else could do.
Once he realized this, Roy Lewis didn’t ask any more questions.
“For your part, I think you should focus on the matter at hand.”
Richelle spoke ambiguously, but Roy Lewis knew that she was referring to the trouble he was facing in his dual roles as both Mr. Lewis and the mysterious financial backer.
“Alright, I’ll focus on my family and my own business for now. Keep an eye on Lordon’s side, and if there’s any problem, let me know so I can send you reinforcements.”
Richelle Dunn nodded, and the two reached a consensus on this matter.
Upon hearing that Roy Lewis’s eyesight had been restored, Kennedy Green hurriedly visited him at noon, but only stayed for a few minutes.
Richelle Dunn knew that they must have something important to discuss. When Kennedy entered, she made up some excuses to step out into the corridor.
Kennedy Green met her in the corridor, had a brief chat, exchanged some pleasantries, and then left.
As for Denise Munni, since Richelle had asked for her help, she rarely voted in favor when the Dunn father and son proposed a resolution about the industrial company at the board meeting the next day.
The Dunn father and son had long been accustomed to her singing the opposite tune like Richelle, so they were a bit surprised.
After the meeting, the father and son returned to the CEO’s office and began to gossip.
“That Denise Munni has always sided with that dead girl Richelle. Is she playing some tricks by voting in favor this time?”
Jayden Dunn was always cautious, especially since this involved their cooperation with Mr. Lilliput and the future of the Dunn Group, so they were even more careful.
At first, Harris Dunn was also puzzled, but after thinking about it, he felt that it made sense.
“She’s always voted against in the past, probably because she genuinely believed that those proposals wouldn’t make money. After all, their venture capital businesses have a high vision, and earning small profits wouldn’t catch their eye.”
“But this project is different; it’s obvious that it’s a lucrative long-term cooperation project. If she still votes against, what kind of achievements could she report back?”
Dennise and Richelle, who had entered the board of directors, had occasionally pulled some votes from other directors, and had vetoed several of their resolutions.
The father and son duo hated the two friends deeply but were powerless against them.
So, they did a lot of groundwork for this project in advance.
They also did their homework with the directors, gathered enough votes to ensure that everything went smoothly, and either it was because Denise felt her vote wouldn’t make a difference or that she genuinely believed it was a feasible project, she voted in favor.
No matter what the reason, nothing could stop them from pushing forward with determination on this project.
Perhaps it was because of Harris Dunn’s strong performance that day, or perhaps Mason Lilliput and the Thompsons were really driven into a corner.
Shortly after their meeting, his so-called nephew proactively contacted the father and son duo and offered a series of more favorable conditions than last time.
Harris Dunn took advantage of the initially agreed-upon terms to negotiate some more benefits.
Of course, this was just a preliminary agreement for the early stage, but judging by Mason Lilliput and his nephew’s urgency, Harris Dunn estimated that he could push even harder.
Jayden Dunn didn’t like Denise very much, or it could be said that he loathed her.
After all, when she joined, she made it clear that she was in the same camp as Richelle Dunn.
“Why not try to win her over?”
Harris Dunn didn’t rule out the possibility, but in the past, he didn’t see any chance of winning her over.
Now, however, there seemed to be a slight change.
“Let’s wait a bit for now, Dad, don’t forget that her husband is Nathan Caroule, the special assistant to the Lewis Group.”
Of course, Jayden Dunn hadn’t forgotten, “He’s an orphan, so if we want to win him over, we can try.”
Meanwhile, Nathan Caroule, who had been targeted by the Dunn father and son, didn’t know that he had become someone else’s target to woo. He was discussing with Roy Lewis on how to lay a trap to lure Mason Lilliput and his party.
“Master Lewis, the upcoming crackdown will inevitably drive Lilliput and Thompson families into a corner. In addition to collaborating with the Dunn family, they’re also spreading their resources and working with several smaller-scale companies. They’re obviously trying to reduce their risk and avoid complete paralysis if one of them falls.”
“Yeah, keep up the pressure on all fronts. My uncle has already begun preparing to announce his candidacy for re-election, and Mason Lilliput has to build momentum for himself too. It’s just that he doesn’t have my uncle’s financial backing.”
The biggest difference between Kennedy Green and Mason Lilliput is that the former has the support of two major financial groups.
As for Mason Lilliput, his own financial strength is naturally incomparable to Kennedy Green’s, so he can only promise some benefits to his supporters after he takes office.
“Denise said that the preliminary proposal for the project at the board meeting was like giving money to the Dunn family..”
