Chapter 924
It happened a few days ago.
Serena learned from a call that Nisse was in grave danger in the hospital. She sighed with emotion that life was unpredictable as Nisse was full of vim and vigor last night.
Serena spent the morning in documents. In the afternoon, she received a phone call.
"Miss Serena, the acquisition of M Group is done. This Group is leaderless now, and the president would like you to take over this new toy."
Adam gave his daughter a toy worth more than one billion!
"Where are you now?" Serena asked for the qualification of this company, but Adam bought her the whole company.
"I'm in the headquarters of M Group. Miss, may you come over now? So, we can finish the handover." The caller was respectful.
"Okay, I'll be right there," Serena gave Avery a notice of her departure.
Amy felt uneasy at the sight of Serena, who left in a hurry. 'Nisse doesn't answer my calls or call me back. Will he betray me?"
Serena arrived at Nisse's company, wishing that Nisse were there.
She was displeased that Nisse threatened her to drink with the project last night. Now, she was eager to see how Nisse would respond to the fact that she became the new owner of his company today. Unfortunately, Nisse was not in the company at all. The handover was done quickly.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Employees in that company were stunned, as such an acquisition was a sudden blow to them all.
For the first time, Serena realized how powerful and resolute her father was. That the acquisition was finished in half a day should be a spectacle in the business circle.
The first thing Serena did after the handover was to put the acquisition on the agenda. The acquisition of M Group would help Serena boost her project smoothly.
Serena invited the owners of the other four companies to a dinner party tonight. The news about the acquisition of M Group didn't come out yet, so no one knew a change had happened. These people accepted this invitation, which was sent out in the name of M Group.
Avery learned a lesson from what had happened last night and insisted on attending the dinner party with Serena. Those guests were dumbfounded at the sight of Avery.
They already refused the offers of Eastern Group, so, what was Avery doing here?
They didn't know Serena. Serena greeted them, "Please, take a seat."
After exchanging some pleasantries, Serena went directly to the point, "We already talked over the conditions, and you all agreed on the acquisition. These are the contracts. Please have a look." The contracts were in compliance with the contents in their communication over the phone," I have no problem with the contract, but why didn't Nisse show up tonight?"
"Yes, one more question, what is the president of Eastern Group doing here?"
Nisse was supposed to fight over the project with Eastern Group. Then, why did Nisse allow his opponent to witness this critical moment?
Serena chuckled, "You are behind the news. M Group was already acquired by Eastern Group this morning, and I am the new president of M Group."
"There is no difference that you sign contracts with M Group or Eastern Group. In another word, this project about low-rent housing is doomed to be ours." "What! An acquisition? When did that happen? Why didn't we hear anything? We talked with Nisse yesterday. Are you joking with us?"
It sounded a lie to them, and none of them believed a word of it.
"It happened this morning, and the news is not out yet; so it is reasonable that you hear nothing."
They looked at each other in
speechless despair. In their opinion, the M Group was larger than the Eastern Group in size, so it should be more reasonable that Eastern acquired M.
Moreover, it seemed impossible for them that the acquisition was finished in half a day. However, both Serena and Avery looked sincere.
"Well, I have the official seal of M Group here. Well, you may call it M Group now, as it needs time to change its name."
"There will be a press conference in a few days when everything is settled down. Then, you will know its new name."
The seal was authentic, so what they heard was neither a joke nor a lie.
There was no choice left to these confused owners, and they signed the contracts on the spot.
"Nice working with you!" Serena stretched out her hand.
"The honor is ours."
The bright moon hung high in the sky. Avery drove Serena home. The smile on Serena's face made Avery feel good.
"Happy?"
"Of course, very. Daddy took great credit in it, but I get the project, anyway."
"Well, we are the same kind of persons. We are anxious to make our way painstakingly while abandoning the shortcuts available." "Isn't that fun? A smooth life is tasteless. The rainbow after the storm is more beautiful." Serena curled her lips into a smile.
"Yeah. You win, and Amy will resign tomorrow." Avery did not want Serena to get hurt because of Amy.
"No hurry. She will leave after the press conference."
Serena wanted to take revenge for the misery Amy put her through. 'What will be her expression when she learns that I have the M Group?'
Serena had some knowledge of Amy, who would be overwhelmed with jealousy.
The next day, Serena went to work as before. The project was already in her pocket, so she had nothing to worry about.
Serena demanded her partners to keep silent about the acquisition before the bidding.
Amy kept observing Serena secretly. She felt confused that Serena seemed to care about the project no more.
Finally, she got news about Nisse
that he was still in the hospital. That
seemed to explain everything to
Amy as the acquisition would have
to be put off.
Amy still felt restless though she seemed to have the upper hand for the bet now. Serena did nothing more for the project when the bidding time came close. S
'Does she care about the bet no more? Dose she give up the bet?'
Those speculations about Serena drove Amy crazy.
Amy felt suffocated in this peace before the storm.
Well, the day when she got relieved from this depression came finally.
