Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
‘What Cheyenne said instantly made Florence freeze on the spot.
“What? You… you are the founder of the Brilliance Corporation?” she asked in disbelief, her mouth wide open.
Cheyenne was expressionless as she merely nodded. “Yes, I’m sorry I’ve disappointed you.”
Boom!
Florence only felt as if her brain had been smashed.
Cheyenne was actually the founder of the Brilliance Corporation!
She was the founder of the garbage company that she had criticized as worthless!
At this moment, Florence deeply felt what it meant to shoot herself in the foot.
The reason she just denounced the Brilliance Corporation and its founder as garbage was to make Cheyenne recognize the difference between them. She would then immediately leave the company and join hers instead.
But she never expected that Cheyenne was the founder!
If she had known that this was the case, she wouldn’t have needed to attract Cheyenne with the establishment of a branch office. If she had directly extended an invitation for cooperation to the Brilliance Corporation, she could have even quickly built a close relationship with her!
After Cheyenne finished speaking, she remained gracious and nodded. Then she turned around and left without looking back.
“Hey, wait… wait a minute!” Florence was shocked. She hurriedly chased after him while yelling nervously, “Miss… Miss Carter! I accidentally said something wrong just now. I really didn’t know you were the founder of the Brilliance Corporation!
“But I didn’t mean to humiliate you. Please listen to my explanation!
“Miss Carter, I really didn’t mean it that way!”
Florence was wearing stilettos with seven-centimeter high heels and a slim-fitting dress that made her look elegant and dignified. But she didn’t care about maintaining her image as she ran after Cheyenne.
But what she said earlier was too hurtful, so Cheyenne was unwilling to hear the nonsense of a person who had denounced her company, which she treated as her child.
A tall figure suddenly appeared in front of Cheyenne and blocked her.
“Miss Carter, Madam would like you to stay.” Andy blocked in front of Cheyenne to stop her.
Cheyenne recognized this person blocking the way to be Florence’s bodyguard. Her delicate face turned sullen as she shouted angrily, “Get out of the way!”
“No, Madam has something to say to you. You’d better finish listening to her.” Andy stood still domineeringly.
Cheyenne was so furious that her face turned red, but the man in front of her looked like a bodyguard who couldn’t be provoked easily. She couldn’t force herself through him and could only stand still in place, waiting to see what Florence had to say.
Florence caught up reluctantly in her stilettos and said anxiously, “Miss Carter, I truly didn’t mean to humiliate you. It’s just that I really value your ability, so I hope you can join my company.
“Tm sorry if I hurt you with my thoughtless words! In order to express my apology, I’ve decided not to set up a Flor Group branch but to invest one hundred and fifty million dollars in the Brilliance Corporation!
“[ sincerely want to cooperate with you. This money is to express my sincerity. As for the company operations, I won’t interfere at all. I’ll leave it all to you, Miss Carter!
“Also, I don’t need any of the company’s dividends. I just hope that you can use this money to give full play to your talents and achieve your goals in life!”
Florence was extremely sincere, and she even promised to invest 150 million dollars in the Brilliance Corporation. It was no different from giving Cheyenne 150 million dollars for nothing since she didn’t even want the management rights of the company and dividends.
Now, she didn’t know how to salvage her relationship with Cheyenne, so she could only use money, which she had the most, to try and touch Cheyenne.
If it was anyone else, they would be immediately moved.
Unfortunately, Cheyenne would never buy this.
Besides, she had never believed that anything would fall into her lap. The more earnest Florence behaved, the more wary Cheyenne became.
People often said that random acts of kindness out of the blue were for evil intentions.
To Cheyenne, Florence was just a stranger whom she had met for the first time, but she actually offered 150 million dollars to her. Cheyenne knew that there had to be a trap.
“No need, Ms. Howard. I won’t accept a single penny of your investment. You’d better keep it for yourself,” Cheyenne refused without hesitation.
Hearing this, Florence thought that Cheyenne felt that 150 million dollars was too little. She quickly said, “Miss Carter, if you don’t think it’s enough, I can invest three hundred million dollars or even five hundred million dollars! As long as you accept my investment, you can immediately turn the Brilliance
Corporation into one of the largest enterprises in Orange County, or rather, in California!”
Five hundred million dollars was already the largest amount Florence could get from the Howards.
In order to reconcile with Cheyenne so that she would obey her arrangement to marry the Master of California, Florence really went all out.
But what she said made Cheyenne even more disgusted. “I just said that I won’t accept your investment. It’s not that it’s too little but that I don’t want to accept any investment from you, regardless of the amount! Ms. Howard, take care of yourself. That’s all I have to say!”
‘With that, Cheyenne turned around again and left.
Florence looked extremely dismayed.
She didn’t expect Cheyenne to turn her down even though she had used her full authority to invest a huge sum of 500 million dollars in Cheyenne’s company!
The Brilliance Corporation was just a small company with a market value of only 100 million dollars and a total annual revenue of less than 15 million dollars. Its net profit was only around four million dollars.
With such a volume, her five hundred million dollar investment could easily buy five companies like the Brilliance Corporation. But Cheyenne actually rejected her kind intentions without even a hint of hesitation.
Why? It isn’t a wise act at all!
Moreover, Florence was Cheyenne’s biological mother, and she had already lowered her pride enough. How could she still talk to her with such an attitude?
Anger suddenly surged in Florence’s heart. “Hold it right there!”
Cheyenne turned around and saw the look of irritation on her face, but she somehow thought to herself, It’s finally coming.
“Ms. Howard, are you angry just because I refused to accept your investment? In fact, it’s unnecessary. You don’t need to use the reason of investing in my company to deceive me. What exactly is your purpose? Just tell me straight, lest you make things awkward for us both,” Cheyenne said calmly.
She had never believed that Florence would be so kind as to invest hundreds of millions in the Brilliance Corporation, which was still operating on a small scale.
Cheyenne wanted her to remove her hypocritical pretense and directly declare her purpose.
‘The expression on Florence’s face was changing rapidly.
She originally planned to start contacting Cheyenne through business before pretending to inadvertently discover that she was her biological daughter and then acknowledge her.
This method would be more natural, and there would be much less bad blood between them.
But her original plan was no longer feasible.
In that case, she had to use a more direct method.
In the end, Florence raised her head and asked directly, ‘Do you know who I really am?”
