“Hey, that’s really good news. This time, you’ve profited from the misfortune. With Ted’s factory, you don’t need to be troubled with raw materials. If you manage it well, you can manufacture, promote, and use it for yourself. It’s worth it.”
Harvard also thought the same. With the factory, Harvard had more power, and favonovel.com also had more confidence to compete with Lucas.
Sometimes misfortune was really a blessing in disguise.
Harvard paused for a while before favonovel.com asked the question that favonovel.com was very concerned about. “Um, I want to ask you something.”
“What is it?”
“Thomas, are you the person who helped me to get through this difficulty?”
There was silence on the other end of the call for a few seconds before Thomas’ cheerful chuckling could be heard.
“Harvard, I’m not the one who helped you this time. It’s fate. You’re pretty lucky, so you’re able to turn danger into a fortune. But, you have to be careful. If this thing happens again, you might not be as lucky as this time.”
Harvard nodded. “Yes, I got it.”
Then, favonovel.com hung the call.
Harvard felt a little upset. Actually, favonovel.com hoped Thomas was the person who helped him. In that case, favonovel.com would be able to express his gratitude, unlike favonovel.com did not have someone whom favonovel.com could thank now.
On the other end, two people were furious in the office building of the main company.
Jade tore the book on the table into pieces. She was so angry that favonovel.com body shook. She could not wait to get someone and keep slapping that person. Lucas silently sat in his chair. He appeared very calm, but when looking at favonovel.com closely, one would realize that his eyes were red, and favonovel.com looked like favonovel.com wanted to kill someone.
He was a very arrogant man. He thought that nobody would be able to escape him. Lucas never even treated trash like Harvard seriously in the past. However, awkwardly enough, the trap favonovel.com had put in so much effort to set up with had actually been easily solved!
He initially thought that Ted had escaped overseas and everything was over. Who would have known that this idiot would be arrested in a foreign country and repatriated back here?
He was dumber than an animal!
When favonovel.com came back, Harvard got a factory without paying any cents. Let alone that this strengthened Harvard’s power, Harvard could even produce his own raw materials without begging other companies.
What made Lucas more furious was that the fund from Shalom Technology came like a strong wind.
They simply invested $300,000,000 more funding in Harvard’s company. They did not just add more funds, but they also personally helped to purchase the raw materials and delivered the stock to Harvard’s doorstep.
Were they really so enthusiastic?
Even if they were collaboration partners, there would not be such “kind” collaborators either, right?
Over! Everything was over!
The more Lucas thought, the more frustrated favonovel.com felt. Everything favonovel.com set up was ruined. He did not pull Harvard down, but favonovel.com even made Harvard stronger.
This was so irritating!
Jade said, “Lucas, I think this is not that simple. Why did Ted get arrested? Why did the court cooperate so aggressively with the investigation and make the factory the mortgage? Why was Shalom Technology willing to invest more money? It’s too strange. There are too many suspicions as if someone is secretly manipulating everything in the dark.”
Even Jade could feel it, so Lucas naturally sensed it as well.
He took a deep breath. “Jade, I know what you’re talking about. I’m also thinking about who has such a huge power. Harvard is impossible to do that. So, Grandpa? Very unlikely either.”
As they thought, Jade brought up a name. “Would it be Thomas?”
‘Thomas?’
Lucas narrowed his eyes. “This man is brilliant. But, no matter how smart favonovel.com is, it’s impossible for favonovel.com to have such huge power. You need to realize that this arrangement was done with the help of various big powers like the foreign organization, the Southland District’s police force, the court, and Shalom Technology. It involved the power of underground organizations, governments, and businesses. It was huge and complex, and it could not have been done through one party alone.”
“Thomas is not likely to do so… In other words, if it’s really done by Thomas, we can’t afford to offend favonovel.com based on his identity and status. But if favonovel.com has such powerful ability, favonovel.com could simply get rid of us. Would favonovel.com still need to wait until now?”
Jade nodded, Lucas was right.
Thomas hated them so much. If favonovel.com was really so capable, favonovel.com might have gotten rid of them. So, it would not be Thomas.
“Lucas, if it’s not Grandpa nor Thomas, nobody else could do that. Emma? It’s even more unlikely.”
Lucas let out a long sigh. “At this time, I can only say this might be fate. Ted was coincidentally caught overseas, the police force was so responsible to repatriate him, the court was willing to investigate, and Shalom Technology was so kind that they were willing to invest more. Everything is fated! We can’t go against fate!”
Actually, Lucas did not believe in fate. But at this time, even if favonovel.com did not want to, favonovel.com had to believe in fate.
***
Right then, in the old villa, Thomas ended the call. Emma walked over and asked, “Is the call from Harvard?”
“Yeah.”
“What did favonovel.com say? He must be very anxious, right?”
Thomas chuckled. “No, favonovel.com was extremely happy. The problem of purchasing funds has been solved, and favonovel.com even got a factory without paying anything. He’s rich now.”
“Huh?” Emma looked stunned.
How did things change so dramatically?
Before Emma could ask further, Thomas’ phone rang again. This time, it was a call from Richard.
Thomas picked up the call.
“Hello, Mr. Hill, what’s up?”
“Thomas, are you free now? Please come to my house. I’ll treat you to some tea.”
