Becoming the Richest Man Alive

Chapter 108

Tiana was beyond exasperated by those lies. “How could you say that? You’re the one who touched me first. And after I refused, you forced yourself on me!”

Tiana’s chest heaved up and down as she tried to suppress her rage.

Stallion was also utterly bewildered by William’s nonsense.

“How shameless are you! So many of you tried to assault a weak woman, and now you try to mock her instead!” Stallion scolded furiously.

I admit I sometimes lie too, but this William’s much worse than me. How could he be so composed while lying?

After a few moments, William had managed to collect himself, and he seemed utterly calm.

“I’m telling the truth. They’re the ones lying.”

Casper had kept his silence for quite a long time. How could we prove this?

For customer’s privacy, the room was designed to be perfectly soundproofed. Hence, people outside would not hear a single sound coming from the inside.

Besides Casper and Stallion, there was no other third-party witness.

Plus, a surveillance camera was never allowed inside a private room.

With that, the whole case had become rather difficult.

Casper furrowed his brows, pondering hard to find a solution.

At that instant, Mr. Zucker was not sure whom he should believe anymore.

“Wait a minute. We’re the witnesses!”

Stallion patted his own chest and stepped forward. “When we came in just now, we saw with our own eyes that he was molesting her.”

“How can you prove that you’re not her accomplice. Maybe you’ve been setting this up for a long time.”

William was fearless as he was fully aware of the perfect privacy protection in this place.

Instantly, the room turned into an awkward silence. Eventually, Victoria opened her mouth. “Since none of you are willing to give in, and we cannot prove anything, why don’t we drop it?”

Tiana could only nod as she knew it was meaningless to further push on the subject

After all, William got a vast network. It would do her no good to get entangled with him.

With that, William left with his subordinates, leaving Tiana behind, looking utterly dispirited.

Just then, Casper’s gaze shifted at the gorgeous Victoria again, while he naturally asked, “Ms. Stalling, why are you here for today? The dinner’s on me later.”

“Yeah? So you’re finally keeping your promise?” Victoria poked at Casper’s chest seductively. “You’re such a heartless man. You promised to treat me to a meal. But I’ve been waiting for ages and not even a message from you.”

Upon listening to that, Casper scratched his head guiltily. He was so busy that he had forgotten about their promise.

“Ms. Stalling, it’s my bad. I’m willing to treat you to one more dinner. Nope, I’m willing to treat you forever.”

Victoria lit up with happiness hearing Casper’s joke. “You’re so humorous. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll eat up all your money?”

By then, Casper’s tone turned earnest abruptly. “Ms. Stalling, seriously, why are you here today? It’s such a coincidence.”

Victoria waved the fan in her hands slightly. “I’ve received an expensive antique just recently, so I came to ask Mr. Zucker to examine it.”

Only then did Casper realize that Victoria and Mr. Zucker were very good old friends.

Mr. Zucker was really into artifacts, while Victoria had found quite a number of artifacts for the former over the years.

That was how the two of them got close with each other.

Never did Casper expect that Victoria got a friend who was not after her look. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Alright, let’s chat another time. I still haven’t shown my antique to Mr. Zucker.” Victoria’s piercing gaze swept past Casper.

Casper cast back a smile without any word.

With that, Casper, Stallion, and Tiana went to another room.

Stallion planned to postpone their discussion about the company, but Tiana seemed eager to settle it immediately.

“Alright, Ms. Darwin. What’s your decision in this matter then?”

Tiana responded without hesitation. “Thanks for rescuing me today. But it has nothing to do with the deal, and I’ll pay back the favor another time. I have decided to sell the company, but the price will be

one million more than your last offer.”

So it will be six million. Stallion’s mind wavered a little.

As they had just saved her dignity, he thought the price would go down by a little. Thus, he was somewhat disappointed and confused by Tiana’s unexpected gesture.

This woman is truly unpredictable.

However, Casper did not seem to mind, as he agreed right away to the deal.

“Okay. Just follow the price that you ask for.”

in fact, the number in his mind was ten million initially.

Plus, Darwin Entertainment had built itself quite a reputation in this industry. As soon as it could get through the current crisis, Casper expected its value could jump to fifteen million.

With that, this still sounded like a great deal in Casper’s eyes.

Needless to mention, Casper had seen the team that Tiana had been investing in, which possessed tremendous potentials in the future.

“Alright, I guess that’s all for the formal business. Let’s talk something personal then.”

Since Tiana had mentioned she would pay back their favor, Casper figured that he would not waste the chance.

Tiana was stunned momentarily, with her expression rather stern. “What do you want to talk about?”

“Are you willing to be the vice president of our company? The annual salary will be a million. And to top it off, I’ll give you five percent of the shares. Ms. Darwin, how does that sound to you?”

It was indeed a generous offer, but Casper felt Tiana well deserved this number.

“Why me?”

“That’s because you know the company best. No problem will happen if it’s under you. Plus, I guess you will be quite free after selling the company.”

After pondering for a short while, Tiana displayed a genuine smile. “Looking forward to working with you, Mr. Simpson.”

Hence, that concluded their discussion for the day. Casper handed Tiana six million and took over all the shares of her company. After that, he gave her five percent of the shares again to keep her in the company.

Later, they made an official announcement to all the employers regarding the new deal.

All the panicking employers resumed their calmness after discovering Tiana was still in the company.

With that, all the operations of the company remained the same.
