Catherine nodded swiftly. "Then I'll keep your phone here! Do you have anything important left inside?"
"How should I put this? Everything in this phone is important!" I corrected her. "Please keep it for me!
It's just that it's a bit inconvenient if I want to watch the surveillance video!"
Elbert chimed in, "You can hide the surveillance app in a secret folder!"
"How do I do that?" I asked, pleasantly surprised.
Elbert took my old phone, fiddled with it for a while, handed it back to me and told me where he hid the
app.
I suddenly looked at him and blurted out, "Could Jaylan have also hidden something like this?"
Catherine said with disdain, "We'll find out once we get into his phone."
"That’s not the priority. The real issue right now is the funding!" I said, worried, "If I can't secure enough
funding, I can't execute the plan."
"Seems like you need a partner!" Elbert hinted, looking at me, "Even if you had the money, you can't
possibly execute this on your own, right? It wouldn't be wise for you to personally buy the shares he's
selling, right?"
I mumbled, "Yeah, I indeed need a reliable person to help me buy low."
"Do you have someone suitable in mind?" Elbert asked.
I shook my head blankly. "For now, it's just a plan. I'll worry about the funding first!"
Elbert leaned on the couch. "If you trust me, I might know someone suitable!"
I looked at Elbert in surprise. He seemed very passionate about this. "But this isn't just a small favor but
a big risk to take." I blurted out.
"Of course, I know it's risky! But it doesn't have to be a favor!" Elbert looked into my eyes and said, "It
could be a partnership!"
"Partnership?" I was a bit puzzled. "How would we partner?"
The alarm bells in my head were ringing. I looked at Catherine, unsure about her friend. However,
Catherine seemed completely unfazed, so I relaxed a bit. I had no reason to doubt Catherine.
Elbert asked, "How many shares does Jaylan have?"
"We own 45% of the shares!" I replied.
"How many do you need to buy?" Elbert asked again.
"At least 40%. Ideally, I would buy all of them, not leaving a single percent." I paused, looking at Elbert,
and asked, "Mr. Elbert, are you sure you can help me? This isn't just any risk, you know!"
I had to put it all out there beforehand and assumed the worst.
Elbert seemed to see my doubts. He straightened up and paused a little. "Well, Ms. Aaliyah, I'll go back
and ask my friend. He's also a friend of Catherine's, and you can trust him."
I looked at Catherine. "That man is also your friend?"
I knew Catherine had been very successful in the media industry over these years, and her network Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
was nothing to worry about. But a friend who could provide such substantial help wasn't just any friend.
I was curious.
Catherine smiled calmly, reassuring me, "We’ll talk to him first, but I guarantee he’s someone you can
trust."
Mr. Elbert nodded, "If you're still worried, I can draft an agreement for you. After purchasing those
shares, once your lawsuit is settled, we'll sell them back to you at the original price."
"Sell them back at the original price?" I looked at him skeptically. "I thought you said we were
partnering?"
Mr. Elbert smirked. "That will have to be confirmed after talking to my friend. I can't make any promises
on his behalf."
I pondered for a moment. This was a crucial step in my revenge. But right now, I couldn't think of any
other partner who could provide such funding. Without this financial support, I could not reclaim
Medsafe Liyah Inc., let alone seek revenge.
No matter how demanding the conditions were, as long as I could reclaim Medsafe Liyah Inc., I would
not hesitate.
"He’s your friend?" I asked again, wanting to confirm. After all, I trusted Catherine. She wouldn't set me
up!
"Yes!" Catherine affirmed, "Just wait for the news!"
