Chapter 71
Luna was moved by Axel’s words.
First of all, Axel’s words made sense.
Second of all, she was in need of funding for the project, even more so when a few of her friends had either rejected her or were unable to help her.
If she missed this opportunity, it would be difficult to proceed with the project.
“Luna, why are you still hesitating?”
Axel stood on his feet with a dash of impatience on his face.” I’m telling you this out of goodwill and you… Forget it.”
He then headed towards the exit.
“Wait!”
Luna fell for the temptation in the end. She said, “Axel, thank you. I’ll go prepare the funds. Please help me process the necessary documents and procedures.”
“Alright!”
A hint of viciousness flashed in Axel’s eyes.
As a matter of fact, the Cloverfields had lost almost all their money and would be announcing their bankruptcy in a few days.
As for being listed publicly, it was impossible.
His father told him to borrow some money from his friends or whoever and get ready to leave the city.
Axel came to Luna and decided to give it a try. To his surprise, she fell for his trick.
It was a welcome surprise for him.
After Axel left, Luna called her father, Harry, “Dad, I might have gotten a solution for the funding.”
“What? How?” Harry sounded surprised.
Luna explained, “Well, Axel just told me that his family, the Cloverfields, are preparing to get listed to raise more funds for the company, so he offered me to invest in them now. When they are publicly listed, we will earn ten times our
investment!”
“This is great news!” Harry cheered in delight. “When the Cloverfields are listed, we will be able to secure the funding for the Valiant Institute project!”
Out of caution, Luna asked, “Dad, do you think there’s something amiss? I mean it feels a little too good to be true.”
“I think it’s good. I can tell Axel is into you. He might be a Trust Fund Kid, but he will do anything to win a girl’s heart. He won’t lie to you.”
Luna was assured when she heard her father.
Harry then added a final reminder, “Luna, remember to keep this a secret and don’t tell anyone. If others know about the investment opportunity, we will lose a lot of profit; if Solomon knows about this, he will definitely try to sabotage us.”
Luna said, “Don’t worry, Dad. I know what to do.”
After a bit more chit-chat, the call ended.
Knock, knock.
Fatty Frank knocked on the door and came into the office with an update on his assignments.
“Come in.”
Fatty Frank saw a happy Luna, so it put a smile on his face as well. “Luna, what’s with the wide grin? Come on, share your happiness with me.”
He was rather close with Luna, or else she would not have protected Team Five at the meeting yesterday.
It was their relationship that fueled Fatty Frank’s confidence.
Luna pondered. Fatty Frank was not an outsider and had always been like a brother to her, so she revealed, “The Cloverfields are getting listed soon.”
“Listed?” Fatty Frank might not be an expert in running a company, but he knew the basics. “Does it mean we are getting rich?”
Luna said, “We are. Go gather some funds and invest in the Cloverfields. We’ll make more money together!”
“Thank you, Luna!”
Fatty Frank had always longed for a chance to perform, and now he finally had it in his grasp.
“Remember, don’t tell anyone,” Luna warned him strictly.
“Don’t worry. I’m not an idiot.” Fatty Frank tapped his chest confidently.
After updating her about his assignment progress, Fatty Frank
returned to his office.
When he saw Andrius, he went up to him. He had a quick glance around and then whispered, “Boss, I have a great chance to earn a ton of money! The Cloverfields are getting listed soon! Gather your money and invest in them! We’ll earn a ton of profit when they are listed.”
