Chapter 594 Invested
“Are you saying that I still have to smile and welcome you even though you snatched my people
away?”
Sean shrugged, his azure eyes filled with dissatisfaction. “Not really. I’m asking for your help because I
want to partner up with you and achieve a win-win situation.”
Veronica smiled before adding, “I’ve looked into it; even though your private detective agency is doing
quite well, you lack skills in hardware.” “What do you mean by that?”
“Your people can investigate very well, and some of them are also skilled at fighting. However, you lack
a team of hackers.”
She lifted the cup and sipped some water from it, saying confidently, “I can provide you with a team of
professional hackers on the premise that I will be taking some shares as well.”
With that, she sighed and leaned back. “Last year, I already told you that I intended to buy your
detective agency, but you were reluctant at that time. Also, my funds were lacking, so I could only
dream back then.”
Things had changed, though. Veronica now had a considerable sum of money and capabilities, so she
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas brave enough to discuss these terms with Sean.
“Taking shares? Hahaha…”
Sean threw his head back and laughed. His hearty laughter resounded in the reception room, and it
sounded extra… patronizing.
He was looking down on Veronica.
Faced with his sneers, Veronica wasn’t mad. Instead, she smiled.
She lifted the laptop bag next to her and unzipped it, retrieving her laptop from within. After turning it
on, her hands flew across the keyboard, clacking the keys. Then, she turned the laptop around so that
Sean could see the screen.
“Why don’t you have a look, Mr. Ludwig?”
She nudged the laptop toward Sean. “You’re from Castron, and based on the current market, Castron
has more potential in development. However, you chose to expand your horizons in Bloomstead
instead. I’ve been curious for the longest time, but when I looked into Zac, I accidentally found
information about you. Say, is this mere coincidence?”
Sean was originally uninterested in the laptop that Veronica had nudged toward him, and he didn’t even
spare the interface a glance. However, when he heard her words, he suddenly thought that there was
more to this woman than met the eye.
His gaze subconsciously moved toward the screen on the laptop, which displayed someone’s personal
information.
He straightened himself and neared the screen. It was then that he realized that the personal
information on the screen belonged to him.
His date of birth, address, and detailed family circumstances were all listed, and the related information
below consisted of his interactions with Zac—there were even photos attached to his file.
“Who gave you this?”
Sean frowned, forcibly snapping the cigarette in his hands in half.
“One must have enough capital if they were to partner up with you. If I can’t provide anything useful,
how can I discuss partnership with you?”
Veronica crossed her arms, her clean little face withholding a smile. She hadn’t put on much makeup,
but she was still beautiful and alluring.
It was especially so when she was serious. She had a cold aura to her, but her beauty still radiated
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfrom within. She also subconsciously exuded a sense of cold pride.
Her aura was getting more and more similar to Matthew’s.
“I graduated with a double degree, and one of them is related to the computer field. Hence, I’ve made
connections early on. If I say the word, I can easily get two top hackers to work for you.”
Veronica had been independent and self-reliant from a young age. If she hadn’t faced a dead end, she
wouldn’t ask anyone for help.
When Veronica’s foster father was hospitalized last year, Matthew transferred him to a high-class
private hospital. More than two million was required, and people would be willing to fund her as long as
she asked.
However, she kept mum about it.
After all, one would reap what one had sown.
She wouldn’t ruin her good image in their eyes if she could help it.
However, it was different this time. Even if she coaxed a top hacker to help her out, she was also
helping them earn money. It would be a win-win situation, so it should be fine.
“Even though my detective agency isn’t earning millions every day, the salary is definitely attractive. I
don’t need any of those things you’ve offered.”
