Chapter 396 Borrowed Money
After Abigail managed to rope in Ronaldo, she remembered there was another ally whom she regretted she would
not be able to cajole. Damon’s backing was substantial. Unfortunately, his marriage might cost him his inheritance
in the family business.
Within a week, Abigail and Luna managed to secure the support of nearly eight investors. The lowest investment
was six hundred thousand, and collectively, they had garnered close to twenty
million.
Abigail and Luna believed this was sufficient funding and decided to hold a meeting.
Everyone took their seats, and Abigail had her assistant distribute the prepared contracts.
As Ronaldo received the contract, he didn’t scrutinize it too closely. He already had a good. understanding of the
basic terms. So, the meeting was mainly about signing and sealing the deal.
Luna took the lead, announcing, “Take a look at the contracts, and if you have any objections, feel
free to raise them now.”

collaborators. Some provided outsourcing services for L.Moon, while others. supplied fabrics and materials. They
covered nearly every sector in the fashion industry.
“I don’t have any objections,” The first young shareholder spoke up.
The others quickly voiced their agreement after sensing the lack of concern in his tone.
As everyone was surprisingly cooperative, both Abigail and Luna breathed a sigh of relief.
Luna was about to speak again when she was interrupted by a knock on the door.
The assistant went to open it and was a bit surprised upon seeing the person standing by the door.
“It’s Mr. Copper,” the assistant turned and reported to Abigail and Luna.
“Have him wait in the conference room for a moment,” Abigail instructed.
Just as the assistant was about to convey the message, Damon spoke up. “You can tell them I’m here to invest.”
His words were heard by everyone in the meeting room.
Abigail turned to her assistant and nodded.
Damon was escorted in, and he took a seat in one of the chairs arranged by the assistant. He was the first to say,
“Why didn’t you tell me about the investment?”

“Mr. Copper, is your business now settled?” Abigail asked, smiling.
Damon, still seated, nodded. “It’s more or less taken care of. I’ve received some help recently. So, it’s not as
difficult as before.”
“Mr. Copper, how much are you planning to invest?” Luna asked, her face carrying a trace of a smile.
“I’m investing seven million. Miss Smith and Ms. Quinn, you both know about my situation. It’s not a huge sum, but
it’s a token of my goodwill,” Damon explained as the highest investor.
The others looked a bit embarrassed after hearing the amount he was offering.
“That’s not a small amount. It seems we’ll have to revise the contract. But… Do you all think that Mr. Copper should
be a part of this?” Luna asked, glancing around for opinions.
Ronaldo waved his hand. “I have no objections.”
Of course, the more investors, the better. This would give L.Moon more confidence to counteract any moves from
others.

Then, Luna arranged for dinner after going through the contract formalities.
Once the dinner concluded, the other shareholders left, leaving only Ronaldo and Damon with Luna and Abigail at
L.Moon.
“I didn’t expect you to invest so much. Among all the investors, you’ve certainly contributed the most, Mr. Copper,”
Abigail expressed her genuine gratitude.
Damon actually wasn’t aware of L.Moon’s efforts to secure investments. This whole initiative was kept quite
secretive. If it weren’t for Sean informing him to get his butt over here, he wouldn’t have known about L.Moon’s
discreet endeavors. Regardless, he had a good idea of the reason behind their sudden decision.
Even though he was pretty much excluded from his family business, he was still a prominent figure in Capitalis.
During his conversations with friends, there had been several discussions as to how L.Moon might face some
challenges from the industry.
“I’m satisfied as long as I can be of help to you.” Damon’s voice was gentle.
Ronaldo’s eyes flickered with a touch of shrewdness. “I heard you don’t have executive power now, Mr. Copper.
How can you invest so much in L.Moon?”
