When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1296

I pursed my lips and gave no reply.

Indeed, a woman who took the words “quote your own price” at face value seriously should not be smart enough to hoard Fuller Corporation’s stocks. However, I needed to thank Thora for indirectly giving me an excuse. Otherwise, I would not be able to find a reason to reject the extra two billion she offered for no reason.

Our gazes locked for a while before Thora suddenly looked like she remembered something. She stood up abruptly, grabbed her bag, and turned around. After she took a few steps, she froze in her tracks and glanced back at me coldly. “I’ll change your mind.”

“I’m looking forward to it.” I pretended to look listless and leaned against my chair, looking like an ignorant hooligan.

Not staying for long, Thora exited the room.

Immediately afterward, I dialed Ashton’s personal number.

When he picked up the call, he spoke before me. “Did Thora look for you?”

I smiled and nodded. “You’ve already guessed it?”

“Pitcoin is so profitable now, but the Ziegler family can’t dabble in it. Considering how strong-headed Thora is, she’ll definitely not let this opportunity go. But since this is such a risky investment, she can’t possibly involve her company in it. Naturally, she’d want to use me. Since you’re the second-largest shareholder in the company, there’s no one else who she’ll look for,” explained Ashton calmly.

However, I was still puzzled. “Didn’t the Ziegler family collaborated with the Trivett family previously? Why didn’t the Trivett family rope them into partaking in such a profitable opportunity?”

It was only after listening to Ashton’s explanation that I understood the reason why the Trivett family fell out with the Ziegler family. It was all because of Mitchell.

“What do you think? With both our capabilities combined, is there a need for us to seek such quick profits?” Ashton’s light-hearted tone made me feel much more relieved.

It was rare to see Ashton so proud. Laughing, I said, “I know what to do now.”

After a slight pause, an ingenious idea surfaced in my mind. “Since Thora wants to be involved in Pitcoin at all costs, why don’t we play along with her and sabotage her plan?”

When Ashton heard that, he suddenly chuckled.

“Why are you laughing?” I was a bit puzzled. After all, in my point of view, it was always better to make the first move.
