Chapter 708 - Meetings (1/2)
On the top floor of Star Group.
Bernard was looking at the report about Theodore Griffith.
”Look at this guy…” Bernard smiled while resting his cheek on his hand.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open as Maya entered the room.
”Why didn't you knock first?” Bernard raised his eyebrows.
”You were the one who asked me to come in with short notice.” Maya pouted, glaring at Bernard. ”So, what did you call me here, Father?”
”Do you know what happened to that guy?”
”Theodore Griffith? Yes, my information network is still not as good as yours, but I still get the gist of what happened.” Maya nodded. ”I guess he can play in economics as well. Though, his plan was based on that so-called experiment. If he didn't have that, his entire plan would collapse. I couldn't consider this as a business strategy.”
”Though, it's normal for us to blackmail people if necessary.”
'You surely don't want to say that in front of others, Dad.”
”There is only you here.” Bernard chuckled.
”Well, that's true.” Maya sighed and said, ”He should have milked the Safulli Group first by threatening them. Looking at the report, I think he's giving some portions to other influences, so yeah, he doesn't get much of it. If it were me, I could easily raise at least a hundred billion from this play alone.
”Though, I think the maximum number he got from here is around 60-70 Billion Zils. It's good, but not that good.” Maya explained with a calm expression.
”As expected of my daughter, you know this well. Though, I think the Pata Corporation is the one who got it.” Bernard smiled.
”Agata Mota? Did she manage to seduce him?” Maya furrowed her eyebrows.
”No. I don't think so. I haven't received any reports regarding their relationship… But at the same time, they might be hiding it because of Theo's reputation.” Bernard shrugged and put down the report. ”Why don't you just grab him for me? It's hard to get someone like this.”
”What are you talking about?”
”You know what I'm talking about. I'm searching for your husband! This is not an easy matter for me because you always turn down everyone and make them cry.” Bernard sighed. ”Seeing his potential, I can assure you that he will become your greatest strength sooner or later.
”I mean, he can use his clone to manage two companies at once, launching an attack that no one has ever seen before. With your ability in managing businesses, you should have some trusted people to help him, right?
”When that happens, your group can easily surpass this company within ten years. See what I'm talking about?” Bernard smiled.
”Do you want a hole in your head?” Maya squinted her eyes.
”Of course not.”
”I don't want to share my man with another woman.” Maya harrumphed.
”Your standard is already far too high, dear. And people like this usually already have a woman on their side. Besides, who cares about that… We can suppress the media about your relationship, so polygamy is possible. If not, I don't think I can see my grandson soon.” Bernard playfully teased her again.
”Why are you talking about this every single time you call me here?”
”Because that's the biggest issue.” He shrugged. ”Doing business is always talking about the future, so although you're still young, I'm worried about your future.
”Anyway, I will share my information later. You should study about him a bit and if possible…” He smirked. ”Snatch him for me.”
”No.” Maya gritted her teeth.
”Fine, fine. I am done teasing you today.” Bernard chuckled. ”Anyway, just make sure you tempt him to go here on the next international mission. We can offer him something to make him stay here in the future.”
