Richelle Dunn sneered inwardly, thinking that he had quite an imagination.

On the surface, however, she maintained a serious and solemn expression.

“Mr. Dunn, may I ask you a question?”

Harris Dunn nodded, “Please, Ms. Munni!”

Richelle took out a report from the information previously provided by Dunn Group and pushed it in front of Harris.

“Mr. Dunn, this is your company’s revenue report from last year. Please evaluate it from a neutral perspective: What would you consider the performance level of these results?”

Harris was, of course, familiar with his company’s data.

“Under normal circumstances, such performance would be considered mediocre, but given the terrible international environment last year, it is at an above-average level.”

Richelle raised an eyebrow, “Then Mr. Dunn, you must also be aware that last year, KL Automotive’s stock price surged by nearly fifty percent and its total assets value as well, FALA Technologies’ stock price soared by almost forty percent. Dunn Group’s core industries are automobile manufacturing and emerging industries like technology. In the same international environment, why did the stock prices of KL and FALA skyrocket, but not Dunn Group’s?”

Harris’s face grew colder, “Ms. Munni, our Dunn Group is naturally incomparable to KL and FALA in terms of scale and strength.”

“Really?”, Richelle questioned, “Fifteen years ago, KL was acquired by Mr. Smith for US$68,340,550. In other words, KL was initially worth only that much. FALA was founded thirteen years ago with a start-up capital of two hundred million. Fifteen years ago, Dunn Group’s total assets were worth one hundred and fifty billion, and thirteen years ago, they were worth one hundred and fifty-eight billion.”

Harris frowned, “Ms. Munni, are you here to talk about cooperation or to humiliate us?”

That’s right, I’m here to humiliate you!

Richelle secretly rejoiced inside, but her face remained serious.

“Mr. Dunn, we are of course here to talk about cooperation. I mentioned KL and FALA not to humiliate you, but rather, if we follow your request and only invest without participating in the management, why not invest in potential companies similar to the early-stage KL and FALA instead of Dunn Group, whose total assets value has only increased by thirty-something percent in fifteen years?”

“Moreover, considering your company’s performance last year and its current management model, if our United Ventures invests US$6,834,335,000, even with satisfactory equity allocation, how much profit can we expect in a year? Mr. Dunn, do you think United Ventures is your biological parent?”

Richelle couldn’t stand Harris’s superior attitude any longer. It was clear that Dunn Group was outwardly strong but inwardly weak. Why not accept reality and sell part of the company while it was still worth something?

Furthermore, whether from United Ventures’ perspective or her own, Richelle never intended to destroy Dunn Group.

She only wanted to take down Jayden Dunn and Megan Linwood.

Jayden and Harris’s faces darkened as Richelle unmasked them on the spot.

“Ms. Munni, we can’t just say it like that…”

Richelle didn’t have time for Jayden’s nonsense, and she looked disdainfully at him.

“Mr. Dunn, then how should we put it? You said in the phone call that you have full sincerity, so Mr. Turner and I made a special trip here. But Mr. Dunn’s behavior here, is this your idea of full sincerity? I think you’re treating Mr. Turner and me like fools, and United Ventures like a stupid organization with too much money to play with!”

Jayden exchanged glances with Harris, looking as if they were making a difficult decision.

“Ms. Munni, how about this: we each take a step back. United Ventures can have management rights; you invest six billion dollars and get twenty percent of equity.”

Richelle secretly clicked her tongue; Harris was genuinely treating them all like idiots.

First, he proposed a condition they absolutely couldn’t accept. Then, seemingly compromising, he agreed to allow United Ventures to participate in management, but offered an equity stake that was five percent smaller than what they had proposed.

Richelle simply didn’t have the time to wear them down and she smiled at Jayden,

“Fine!”, she said, noticing the hint of joy on Jayden’s face before continuing, “It seems we’ll never come to an agreement. Mr. Dunn, we can’t afford your generous offer. Please find another company that can accept your conditions for cooperation.”

Like their previous meetings, Richelle and Hugo Camrey showed no reluctance to leave, exchanging glances, packing their belongings, and preparing to depart.

This time, Jayden was truly anxious, “Ms. Munni, we sincerely want to cooperate…”

Hugo, who had been relatively quiet, cut him off.

“Mr. Dunn, an investment of US$6,834,335,000 for twenty-five percent equity is the condition approved by headquarters. If these conditions aren’t met, Ms. Munni and I lack the authority to make a decision. Or, if Mr. Dunn can negotiate with our CEO, please feel free to do so!”

Richelle and Hugo, like the previous two times, packed their things and left.

In the reception room, Jayden and Harris Dunn sat silently.

After a while, Jayden asked Harris,

“Harris, is there really no way with your old friend?”

Harris shook his head, “He said that Denise Munni’s authority at United Ventures is second only to the CEO, so as Darren Turner said, if we want to negotiate for more favorable conditions, we have to find the CEO of United Ventures.”

Jayden looked worried, “So, you…”

Harris rubbed his temples and leaned back in his chair, “I can’t do anything!”

He leaned back in his chair and pondered for a while, a hint of resentment flickering in his eyes.

“Dad, don’t you feel that this Denise Munni seems to harbor a lot of hostility towards us?”

Jayden thought carefully, “Not really. Although she is difficult to talk to and unyielding, isn’t that the way venture capital companies function?”

Harris still felt that something was wrong, but he had no other leads.

“I always feel that she is a bit too familiar with our Dunn Group.”

Jayden was somewhat dismissive, “Venture capitalists naturally conduct thorough investigations of the companies they intend to invest in. There’s nothing strange about that.”

Harris frowned, “No, Dad, some things can’t be done by external investigation and data collection. It must be someone inside the company, and they must be very familiar with the company’s ins and outs, to be so familiar with Dunn Group. I felt uneasy when traditional industries were mentioned last time.”

Jayden didn’t share his son’s keen intuition and thought that Harris was being too sensitive.

“Didn’t you have a friend look into Ms. Munni? Is there anything suspicious about her?”

Harris’s expression was somber, “No, maybe it’s not her, maybe there’s a problem within our company.”

Jayden was exhausted from dealing with problems in the company and at home. He had hoped that today’s meeting with United Ventures would bring some progress, but it ended up like this.

“Harris, I think we should compromise on our cooperation with United Ventures. The deal with Lichtenstein Group most likely fell through!”

Mentioning this incident made Harris grind his teeth.

“Damn Roy Lewis! If you don’t let me have a good life, don’t expect to have one yourself!”
