“I wouldn’t need that many shares. I might only invest 50 million,” Carlisle texted his exnation to <b>Lethan</b>
His funds were limited. After this investment, he’d have only about 76 million left.
He also nned to spend 55 million to acquire <b>the </b>Xenos Factory, which would then require another 50 million for research and development.
He needed to reallocate 50 million from his initial investment In Holly Fisheries.
Lethan’s reply came after a brief pause.
“No problem. We will give you 20% of the shares regardless of your investment.”
He left the underlying condition of this arrangement unspoken–the cold wave Carlisle predicted would
significantly impact the southern fishing industry this year.
This was a massive investment, with all three investors nearly leveraging all their assets.
“Alright then. I’ll invest another 50 million once I’ve sorted out my finances!” Carlisle typed back, feeling a surge of gratitude.
Lethan had clearly maintained his offer of 20% under considerable pressure from the other investors, solidifying his value as a trustworthy friend.

Carlisle led the way to where Francis had parked the car.
Leon climbed conscientiously into the passenger seat, settling in.
Carlisle opened the car door for Wanda and chivalrously said, “Princess, please get in.”
Wanda blushed deeply when Carlisle gantly called her ‘Princess“. Her annoyance was evident as she climbed into the car, her face turning a deeper shade of red.
Once inside, Carlisle announced, “To Yearning Ind.”
Wanda recognized Francis and couldn’t resist asking, “Carlisle, is your driver now driving unlicensed?”
Francis replied with a deadpan tone, “I’m your boyfriend’s personal driver now.”
Wanda’s eyes widened in surprise, and she turned to Carlisle.
“He’s not joking, right?”
Carlisle shook his head and smiled.
“It’s no joke. He really is my personal driver now.”
Curious about Carlisle’s newfound financial freedom, Wanda inquired, “How much did you sell that
painting <b>for</b><b>?</b>”
Carlisle <b>responded </b>with a grin, “About eight million
Wanda was taken aback, her expression one of astonishment. “It’s no wonder you spend so freely. You didn’t even blink at five hundred bucks!”
Carlisle pulled Wanda into his arms and chuckled softly, “So you see, you don’t need to start a business to make money. I can take care of you.”
Wanda stiffened slightly in his embrace and whispered with her <b>eyes </b>downcast, “Can you behave when we’re out in public? There are people around.”

When they arrived, Francis parked the car <b>and </b>said, “I’ll wait for you guys outside.”
Ever polite, Wanda suggested, “Why not join us for a walk since you’re free?”
However, Francis lit a cigarette and silently walked toward the park outside without responding.
Wanda <b>was </b>feeling a bit flustered as she turned to Carlisle.
“Did… did I say something wrong<b>?</b><b>”</b>
Carlisle gently squeezed her hand, offering reassurance with a soft voice.
“You didn’t say anything wrong. Francis simply has his own issues.”
Wanda intuitively felt that it might be rted to personal matters <b>and </b>sighed softly.
“Then I must have touched a nerve. I’ll go apologize to himter!”
“There’s no need. He’s not that easily offended.”
