Chapter 35
Ian tossed the USB drive to Terry. “Print out the investment n and send it to Bolton Investment. If it
gets approved, reward Sage ordingly.”
Although Mimosa couldn’t be considered a top–tier investment, it was Hob Corporation’s first
acquisition project for Bolton Investment. Therefore, it needed to be meticulously prepared to make a
strong impression.
That was also the reason why thepany’s investment analysts had been working on proposals
recently. To motivate them, thepany even established bonuses for the best proposals.
Unexpectedly, Sage also expressed interest in participating and managed to produce a n that
gained Ian’s acknowledgment within such a short period.
Thinking of this, Terry silently admired Sage’s ability and took the USB drive. ” Alright, Mr. Hob.”
“Ms. Joyner, feel free to order anything you like. Don’t be shy.”
In the luxurious and low–key private club, Shane lounged on a soft couch. He
casually propped his feet up on the coffee table. Two slim and graceful women sat by his sides.
To keen eyes, Shane’s rxed demeanor suggested it was a business meeting. But to those unaware,
it might seem like a disy of hisvish lifestyle.
“Mr. Morrison, is it possible for them to leave?” Sage asked.
“No.” Shane smiled devilishly. “Ms. Joyner, if they leave, we’ll be alone together. Wouldn’t that be
inappropriate?”
After a moment of speechlessness, Sage remarked, “Mr. Morrison, you can
consider me as a dude.”
Shane nonchntly responded, “No can do, Ms. Joyner. Who would see such a beautiful woman like
you as a dude?”

Sage didn’t bother arguing with him and turned directly to the two beautiful women. She said, “I noticed
that there’s a spa area here. Please go and have a full -body spa to rx. Don’t worry, Mr. Morrison will
cover all the expenses.”
As the two women exchanged nces, Shane raised an eyebrow. He quipped, ” Ms. Joyner has given
the word. Go ahead.”
Then, he teased Sage, “Looks like you’re as stingy as Ian.”
Sage remainedposed. “If word got out that you spend someone else’s money on women, I’m
afraid it’ll be embarrassing for you.”
“I suppose I should thank you for being considerate.” Having mocked her, Shane revealed a more
businesslike demeanor. “Ms. Joyner, is the investment n ready?”
“Yes, but there’s been a bit of an unexpected situation.”
With a suspicious look from Shane, Sage briefly exined the incident of Ian taking her USB drive.
“Although I have a backup on myptop, he has already seen the contents. It couldplicate things.”
Sage could only me herself for not having the habit of shutting down herptop and for assuming
Ian wouldn’t enter her room. She had let her guard down. 1
After all, revising the investment n wasn’t just a matter of time constraints; certain crucial data was
challenging to alter.
Shane asked, “So, how do you n to handle this?”
Sage knew that Shane didn’tpletely trust her, and he probably had backup ns himself. However,
his failure to secure Mimosa in the previous timeline indicated the ineffectiveness of his ns.
Sage suggested, “Let’s go directly to Mimosa and discuss a coboration. As long as we’re a step
ahead, Bolton Investment’s proposal won’t affect us.”
Chuckling, Shane pointed out, “That’s a good idea. But Ms. Joyner, have you considered that by
initiating the coboration first, we’re essentially revealing our cards? It would allow Bolton Investment
to adjust their pricing at any time.”

Usually,petition in investment projects boiled down to money. When two rivalpanies had equal
strength, the one with more money had the upper
hand.
Sage understood this well, so she proposed, “What if we establish a coboration in advance?”

By confirming the coboration, Bolton Investment wouldn’t have a chance even if they offered a higher
priceter.
“Ms. Joyner, are you joking?”
