“Some financing, I think. He is preparing to expand the company.” I didn’t know much as well, so I merely
told her the key points.
Fuller Corporation was already a listed company, so all of their financing development was public
knowledge. There was nothing secret about it at all.
“Financing now?” Emery seemed to be rather surprised as she remained rooted to the spot, exclaiming
agitatedly, “They have been in K City for barely a year, and there is no telling whether they can get used
to the development here. Ashton is too impatient.”
“He should have his own plans, I think.” Ashton was not the type of person who did things on impulse.
Otherwise, he would not have brought Fuller Corporation to its present height.
“What plan? He is just too rash.” Emery waved her hand in disagreement and sighed annoyedly. “What
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdoes Ashton take this market to be? Just because he managed to rustle up a few huge deals these few
years, he thinks he can put down roots here on this premium land? Scarlett, you’re his life partner, so
you should remind him that the Moores are not the only family in K City. He has gained so much fame
lately that there are countless jealous people out there waiting to stab him in the back!”
I frowned. Indeed, she was more far-sighted than I could ever be.
What Emery said was an undeniable fact.
Due to his relationship with the Moore family, the business tycoons in K City were all courteous to Ashton
on the surface.
However, Fuller Corporation’s development had definitely taken up some of their market shares. No one
could laugh at the face of a smaller piece of the pie.
Ashton had been the center of attention the moment he arrived at K City. Hence, there was a possibility
that the other businessmen who had suffered losses would collude against him.
Emery grew more serious when she saw that I remained silent. “At this moment, Ashton should not be
focusing on financing and expansion. Instead, he should concentrate on stabilizing their foundation in the
city. The moment they topple here in K City, they will never be able to make a comeback!”
I let out a deep sigh and nodded. “I understand. I’ll have a chat with Ashton.”
Emery’s words were no exaggeration. Compared to J City, K City was developing at a much faster rate.
Countless entrepreneurs had emerged here only to disappear soundlessly.
K City was a carnivorous city! Emery’s reminder landed me in a bed of worries for the rest of the day.
Even though I knew that Ashton would not make rash decisions, I was still feeling rather anxious.
After dinner, I quickly tucked Summer into bed before I headed to Ashton’s office.
Of course, I did not forget my obligation as his wife. Like yesterday, I brought him his dinner. The only
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdifference was that I was very edgy today.
Even though I had been part of Fuller Corporation’s management, I practically had no say in the
company’s development, so I did not know how he would react if I commented on his project based on
Emery’s views.
The entire K City had already resumed work by now. Most of the people going in and out of the lobby
were employees working in this building. After exchanging festive niceties, they immediately dove into
formal business talk. Nevertheless, probably due to the festive season, everyone had smiles on their
faces.
All the lights were turned on at Fuller Corporation, and many employees were still working overtime.
However, very few of them noticed me.
Those who did were about to greet me when I lifted my index finger to my lips and signaled them to keep
quiet. I then headed directly to Ashton’s office.
