Damon’s offer of ten times the market value was too tempting for the shareholders. They didn’t know when Prospectus Technology’s stock price would ever see such a surge.
With this realization, several shareholders quickly decided to sell their shares.
Damon’s expression remained unchanged as he instructed Spencer to tally up the shareholders wishing to sell. He immediately had thewyers draft the transfer agreements.
Soon, the shareholders signed the share transfer agreements and received their payments.
Seeing therge sums in their bank ounts, many left with gleaming eyes, clearly thrilled.
The remaining shareholders, witnessing this, began to waver as well.
Damon nced at the remaining shareholders and said, “If anyone else wants to sell their shares, now is the time. After today, this offer won’t be avable.”
Hearing this, a few more shareholders chose to sell their shares.
As he watched them leave, delighted by the bank transfer notifications they received, Spencer couldn’t help but shake his head.
What they didn’t know was that a new chronic disease drug, secretly developed by Damon’s research team, had justpleted clinical trials and would beunched soon.
With hundreds of millions of patients in the country, Prospectus Technology’s stock price was bound to skyrocket once the drug hit the market.
The excitement they felt now would soon turn to regret when they saw the stock’s future gains.
Moreover, the Preston Group and Prospectus Technology were alreadypetitors.
Damon had previously tolerated the Preston Group’s actions that harmed Prospectus Technology’s interests due to his rtionship with Nathaniel. Now that Nathaniel was opposing him, taking down the Preston Group would only benefit Prospectus Technology.
Seeing no more shareholders stepping forward to sell, Damon coldly announced, “Since no one else wants to sell their shares, the meeting is dismissed!”
With that, he didn’t spare another nce at the shareholders and left the room.
Once Spencer left as well, the tense atmosphere <b>in </b>the conference room eased slightly.
Some shareholders <b>couldn’t </b>hold back <b>their </bints.
“Mr. Sumner is being <b>too </b>reckless. Although he founded Prospectus Technology, we shareholders have <b>contributed </b>significantly as well. Especially you, Mr. <b>Warner</b>. We <b>may </b>not hold many shares, <b>but </b>Mr. <b>Sumner </b>hasn’t <b>even </b>informed you about his actions against the Preston <b>Group</b>. How <b>can </b><b>you </b><b>tolerate this</b>?!
<b>Everyone </b><b>knew </b>that <b>Hector’s wife </b>was <b>a </b>member <b>of </b>the Preston family. <b>Damon’s actions </b><b>against </b><b>the </b><b>Preston </b><b>Group were </b><b>essentially a </b><b>humiliation for </b><b>Hector </b>
<b>Hector’s </b><b>expression </b><b>darkened </b><b>as </b><b>he </b><b>replied </b><b>coldly</b><b>, </b>“<b>Why </b><b>didn’t </b><b>you </b><b>speak </b><b>up </b><b>when </b><b>Mr. </b><b>Sumner </b><b>was </b><b>here</b><b>? </b>
If you don’t want to stay at Prospectus Technology, feel free to sell your shares. It’s better to keep such divisive talk to a minimum.”
With that, Hector stood up and departed, leaving a group of stunned shareholders in his wake.
Back in Damon’s office…
Damon was about to review some documents when Spencer knocked and entered. Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
“Mr. Sumner, since Ms. Jayston’s disappearance, you haven’t had a proper rest. After the new drugunches, you should consider taking some time off,” Spencer suggested.
A few days earlier, Damon had been hospitalized for a stomach bleed. The doctor had warned him that if he didn’t take better care of himself and rest, his health would deteriorate further.
Moreover, Damon had visibly lost weight over the past month. His suits now looked oversized, and even the designers had privately asked Spencer if Damon was ill.
Damon looked up at Spencer and said firmly, “I’ll handle my own schedule. You can go back to work now.”
