Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu’s Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 687: Chapter 683: Aren’t You Afraid Richelle Dunn Will Buy the Dunn Group?

The more Harris Dunn thought about it, the happier he became, and his good mood seemed to make even Richelle Dunn more appealing to his eye.

He even went out of his way to approach Richelle Dunn after the meeting ended, and kindly invited her to join him for lunch.

“Richelle, it’s been a while since we’ve caught up. How about we have lunch together?”

The directors hadn’t left yet. The smarter ones could tell that this was Harris Dunn flexing his influence towards Richelle Dunn.

The more obtuse ones took it as Harris Dunn trying to make nice with Richelle Dunn.

Therefore, the curious and those eager for a show stopped in their tracks, waiting to see how Richelle Dunn would respond.

Richelle Dunn maintained a calm expression and glanced at him.

“Sorry Mr. Dunn, but I have to pick up my child from school.”

After saying that, she looked away, ignoring him completely, gathered her things, stood up, and left with an air of pride.

After being trampled on by her for so long, Harris Dunn finally felt a rare moment of triumph and made a grand gesture.

“In that case, let me treat everyone to a meal. How about it?”

Aside from Darren Moss and two other directors who had clearly sided with Richelle Dunn, all of the directors agreed enthusiastically.

Harris Dunn raised his hand in a quieting gesture towards the cheering crowd, sauntered to the front, and cordially invited Tania.

“Tania, this is our first meeting. Would you do me the honor of joining us for a meal?”

Tania, however, raised her wrist to check her watch and offered him a regretful smile.

“I’m afraid I can’t. I have a flight to catch.”

Harris Dunn wasn’t one to press people, so he extended his hand in a gracious manner.

“Fair enough, but next time, you must join us!”

Tania shook his hand and chuckled.

“If there is a next time, absolutely!”

Harris himself escorted Tania to the elevator and only returned to the conference room after she had entered it.

The room was still filled with directors waiting for him; Denise Munni, who had been there earlier, was now nowhere to be seen.

He offhandedly asked, “Where’s Ms. Munni?”

His secretary promptly replied, “She left while you were escorting Tania out, sir.”

Harris Dunn curled his lip, “Did she say anything?”

The secretary shook his head, “Nothing…”

At this moment, Mr. White chuckled.

“What could she say? After being publicly humiliated like that, I wouldn’t dare say anything either.”

Mr. Rogue also laughed, “What can she say? She’s probably hiding somewhere, crying.”

Mr. Prain chimed in, “Yeah, United Ventures has probably lost all confidence in her. Otherwise, they would have saved her some face, at least give her a heads-up so she wouldn’t embarrass herself in front of everyone.”

Mr. Smith clicked his tongue, “We should have brought her along. This meal might have ended up as a farewell party for her. Right, Mr. Dunn?”

Harris Dunn laughed heartily as well.

“Enough, everyone, let’s leave her some dignity. After all, she is a director at United Ventures. If we strip her of everything, how is she going to face the world?”

Mr. White also joined the chorus.

“Yes, let’s be a little more compassionate. Remember, she used to be a director at United Ventures. We can’t kick someone when they’re down.”

After presumably enjoying their ridiculing of Denise Munni, Mr. Smith suddenly redirected the conversation towards Richelle Dunn.

“Speaking of which, didn’t Richelle Dunn seem unusually quiet today? The assertive and sharp energy she usually exudes was nowhere to be seen!”

Mr. White glanced at Mr. Smith, “Are you dense? When she’s at the Lewis Group, she has Roy Lewis backing her using those shares. The staff at the Lewis Group have to listen to her. But here at the Dunn Group, she only holds a small number of shares. What could she possibly say?”

Mr. Prain chimed in, “Exactly. If she wasn’t currying favor with Ms. Munni, she wouldn’t dare speak up at the Dunn Group. She wouldn’t have the courage to say anything without Ms. Munni’s support. Now that Ms. Munni can’t even protect herself, isn’t it time for Richelle to slink away?”

Mr. Brown, who hadn’t spoken up till now, interjected. It wasn’t clear whether he was joking or genuinely reminding them.

“Don’t dismiss Richelle Dunn so easily. Right now, she’s at least controlling around twenty percent of the shares at the Lewis Group. If she wanted to, she could not only demand more shares from the Dunn Group, but she might even be able to buy the whole company!”

Mr. Brown’s words successfully darkened Harris Dunn’s face.

Mr. White quickly tried to smooth things over.

“You make it sound so easy. Let’s not even talk about how impossible it would be for her to convert those shares for cash to buy the Dunn Group. Are we even sure she has those shares in her hands?”

Mr. Prain nodded, “You’re right. We all think that what Mr. Lewis did at the banquet was just for show, to get people at the Lewis Group to accept Richelle Dunn.”

“But think about it. Would Mr. Lewis really just give away shares worth so much money to Richelle Dunn?”

It seemed that Mr. Brown was the only one playing devil’s advocate.

“Are you sure about what you’ve said? Do you all think the executives and directors of the Lewis Group are fools, to be fooled by fake shares?”

Harris Dunn, who had just darkened his face, was now smiling again.

“In fact, perhaps those shares were really given to Richelle Dunn. But apart from the will, who knows whether Mr. Lewis made Richelle sign a whole package of additional agreements?”

“In my opinion, based on Richelle’s craven attitude today, she hardly seemed like someone holding assets amounting to hundreds of billions.”
