Chapter 455 Fever
Summer lay on the bed, trying to process what had happened. She had been so focused
on saving Vaste that she hadn’t even considered her health. But when Dexter returned
from the balcony, she sprang up from the bed. “Dex, have you decided?” she asked
frantically.
Dexter was taken aback by her actions. He chuckled, “You’re a stubborn one.”
She cared more about Vaste’s survival than her own health.
Dexter noticed the similarities between Summer and Liana. They looked alike, were both
determined and never gave up on their goals.
Dexter respected her for her tenacity.
He passed her a cup of water and said, “First, I never agreed to consider your request.”
“Furthermore, you were the one who kept prying on me. Now it’s my turn to ask you some
questions.”

Dexter placed his phone on the side and stared at her gravely. His hands were in his
pockets, and his stance was intimidating.
“First, you want the Carter Group to give up on acquiring Vaste. But what happens when
Vaste is swept up in the fierce competition in the industry? Vaste wasn’t in a good state
before, so how would you overcome this?”
Summer’s mouth gaped open in surprise, her eyes wide as she prepared to respond.
“Secondly, even if the Carter Group doesn’t acquire Vaste, other companies in the industry
are still eager to take advantage of Vaste’s vulnerability. How will your company overcome
this?”
The two questions exposed the reality that Vaste was in a vulnerable position in the
industry.
Either way, they had big obstacles awaiting them.
Summer’s words caught in her throat. She mulled over his questions, but she couldn’t find
a satisfactory answer to his questions.
“If your company can’t come up with a proper plan to overcome the problem, I won’t help
you, Dexter said indifferently as he walked away.
“Dex!” Summer called after him.
Dexter stopped walking, as Summer had hoped.
Summer turned around and faced him again. She took a deep breath, and her eyes
became determined. “I haven’t thought of a way to overcome the problem yet, but Vaste
has great potential in the industry. If Vaste survives, the leaders will keep the research
team, even if we eventually enter the e-commerce business.”
Summer’s eyes lit up with hope. “Their visions are clear and unwavering, and I believe in
all
of us.”
Dexter had been in the industry for a long time and had seen it all. He had dealt with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmruthless people and unreasonable matters, so the word “vision” was something he had
rarely heard.
She continued to persuade him, “You agree with this solution, don’t you?”
Dexter chuckled. “You’ve only recently joined Vaste, so why are you so eager to save it?
Seeing how he treats you, Arnold wouldn’t be too harsh on you.”
“I made it clear to him before I returned that we can’t be together, so I doubt he’ll show
mercy now. As for Vaste, my father wouldn’t let me stay, so I’m not backing down.”
After pondering for a while, Dexter muttered, I’ll help you but with one condition.”
“Got it. What’s your condition?”
“Let the Russell Group become a shareholder of Vaste. Dexter saw Vaste’s potential in the
industry, and it was beneficial for him to do so.
Summer froze at his request. Dexter was clearly taking advantage of their vulnerable
state. He said it with such ease, revealing his true intentions. Even if he did not say these
words exactly, he was basically giving her an ultimatum, “You can join forces with me and
lead it to new heights, or you can watch it be taken over by a competitor. The choice is
yours.
