Unexpectedly, Estela found herself on the brink of becoming a shareholder in her own company, a situation she found difficult to accept. Growing up together since childhood and attending the same university, she couldn't understand why she was struggling financially while Estela seemed to have everything she desired, including receiving shares in Hcorp through her family."Very well, I'll count on you then," Maricela said with a warm smile to Estela, raising her wine glass.Estela reciprocated by raising her glass and assuring, "You can rely on me."Although Maricela smiled, her heart turned cold as she recalled the arrangement she had recently made with Carissa. She realized she didn't need to depend on Estela to bring down Kathy.After browsing through some items, Kathy ultimately purchased a scarf. "Shall we head back now?" Dominic inquired as they re-entered the car."Exactly, why else would we have rushed out like that?" Kathy affirmed with a nod."But, do you think my father wil

Dominic let out a sigh and gave a nod."You're correct. When the overall environment is unfavorable, it impacts everyone. While we may not be able to change that, one thing we can change is Hcorp's development strategy."Kathy nodded in agreement, "I see what you mean. The kind of financial activities that arise are influenced by the environment. Basic needs like food cannot be ignored.""Therefore, it's crucial for Hcorp to transform now. The company's real economy is notably fragile, with a significant portion being in the virtual economy. If we were to face an economic crisis, we would likely be hit the hardest and could potentially shrink by more than fifty percent."Kathy's expression turned into a tight frown. She had considered this issue as well but was unsure about how to address it."Do you already have a comprehensive plan in place?" Kathy suddenly smiled and glanced at Dominic.Dominic nodded, "Accepting Westford's funding is just the beginning. Our primary focus lies with

Carissa believed Dominic was using Kathy to get back at her, and that he would return to her side when the time was right. After hastily closing the email, Carissa remembered a compressed file she hadn't opened. Upon extracting the file, she discovered Xavier didn't have a dark history. With a cold laugh, Carissa closed the email window. "I'll let you off the hook for now. If you don't have much of a dark history, then I'll create one for you."Meanwhile, Kathy and Dominic were discussing business. "Kathy, how's the new file coming along?" Dominic asked, visiting Kathy's office for the umpteenth time that day."CEO, you already asked me this question two hours ago. I've already sent it to the sales director according to your instructions, and it'll be officially launched on Monday," Kathy replied, slightly annoyed.Dominic nodded. "Then I'll wait for your good news. Also, our project has just started, and we'll need your help and Abigail's in terms of manual planning.""That's natural

She didn't believe she had done anything wrong, thinking that the only difference between them was their opinions. If both individuals shared an unspoken agreement on everything, then Dominic's affection was not directed towards her, but rather towards himself. Carissa remained unaware of why Dominic had left so abruptly, still holding onto an illusion of him. "I understand. You can continue working in the marketing department. If you're feeling overwhelmed, it's okay. I'll secure a position for you at Perotone, where you can receive a monthly salary of ten thousand talents from them. This is my genuine gesture." After reflecting on her behavior during this time, Carissa realized she needed to display some sincerity towards her allies. Acquiring Maricela's loyalty with a sum that was insignificant to Perotone turned out to be a highly cost-effective transaction.This was also what Xavier had reminded Carissa if they didn't give some bonuses, these people would sooner or later stop w

"Oh, I forgot to mention this. Maricela was released on bail earlier with the help of Carissa," disclosed Dominic."Are you suggesting that Maricela shared our intelligence with Carissa? But how is Carissa linked to Westford's family? Her influence shouldn't extend that far, should it?" inquired Kathy.Dominic shook his head. "It's possible that Maricela herself reached out, not necessarily Carissa.""Impossible!" Kathy exclaimed. "Maricela isn't that clever."Dominic chuckled and remarked, "You're right, she isn't that astute. Therefore, it's more likely that she inadvertently leaked information and it was overheard by someone with ill intentions. I'll have someone monitor Maricela closely, and I'll speak to Wesley again."Kathy remained apprehensive. "Once we accept Westford's funding, we may be stuck with no way out."Dominic drew in a deep breath and gazed into the distance. He knew he had to take matters into his own hands. After meticulously planning for so long, he couldn't ris
