A Promising Youth
Chapter 29 Knowing It's a Trap
At that moment, Clara looked at me with immense seriousness, and I looked at her with confidence.
I never went to college, but for four years in prison, in that place of undivided attention, I studied almost like a hunger under the guidance of Master and the teachers!
Master said, “If you want to change your fate, you have to put in ten times or even a hundred times more effort than others. If you can't even compete with others in terms of effort, how can you talk about competing with others in terms of “family” and “connections”?”
“Ok, Get your man over here! The position of Executive Vice President has to be filled by Matteo!”
At that moment, Clara trembled her red lips and slapped her palm on the table.
“Wait, I have not done talking.”
Greyson hastened to interrupt with a sly look in his eyes, saying,
“Before this bet takes effect, the formula of ‘General Grey’ must be incorporated into the company's assets.”
I seem to understand something. The second shareholder seemed to be aiming at the “formula”.
Clara violently grabbed my clothes, as if trying to persuade me not to gamble. After all, the value of that formula was equal to six Blue Butterfly Textile Factories.
Seeing our hesitation, the second shareholder immediately added.
“Miss Clara, I know you've always wanted to get rid of me from the company, now the opportunity is right in front of you, don't back out!”
“Greyson Morris, don't try to provoke me!
The formula is Matteo's, I can't do anything about it.”
Clara glared at him in exasperation, with her hand still holding my shirt imploring me to give up.
“Young man, I've heard all about you. You've come a long way to help Clara, you must like her. This is a good opportunity.
As long as you help Clara and squeeze me out of the company, Clara will like you
It's worth a fight for love!”
Greyson smiled grimly. How could I not see through this little trick of his?
Taking a long breath, I gently pushed Clara's hand away and said.
“Okay, Mr. Greyson, I'll bet with you!”
Clara immediately said.
“Are you mad? If we lose, we'll lose the company and your formula!”
With a cheeky smile, I said. “Sister, I'm doing it for you!
