But Maggie didn't want to make their parting too somber, so she teased Violet to lighten the mood.
"I hear you, I've got it all figured out. But when are you gonna introduce your boyfriend to us? You jumped
straight from dating to engagement. Is he reliable? | remember you saying you haven't met him that many
times, right?"
Maggie meant it as a joke to brighten the atmosphere, but Violet took it to heart.
Her face changed color, and her eyes betrayed a hint of guilt.
"Can't | get married just because we haven't met much? It's not like | don't want to see him; I'm just swamped
with work! We video chat every day."
She was busy with work, but was her partner also too busy for in-person meetings?
In the office, it wasn't uncommon to see young lovebirds, with boyfriends often picking up their girlfriends after
work.
But looking at Violet, her boyfriend had never once picked her up or dropped her off.
Maggie saw through it but didn't press the matter, patting her hand and saying lightly, "Alright then, I'll be
looking forward to your wedding toast."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtViolet walked away somewhat displeased, but Maggie took her reaction in stride, attributing it to youthful
temperament.
That afternoon.
Chuck cin with a folder in his hands, reporting, "Maggie, Thunderbolt Enterprises, owned by Mr. Winston,
has been acquired by Maurice. Here's the contract, just signed."
Maggie glanced at the contract without surprise.
Six months ago, Frederick had inked a deal on wafer technology with a hacker, and after his passing, only
Maurice had the means to continue fulfilling it.
Maggie had known all along that Maurice had been coveting wafer technology. With Frederick gone, he wouldn't
miss such an opportunity.
So, he blatantly acquired Thunderbolt Enterprises and openly partnered with the hacker.
But applying wafer technology to the medical field was inherently controversial.
If someone were to dig deeper in the future, Maurice, with his cunning, would surely pin the blon the late
Frederick.
After all, it was Frederick who had signed the contract, and Maurice had made the deal with the hacker under the
guise of Thunderbolt Enterprises.
He could continue to profit immensely while the deceased Frederick bore the risks.
Maurice was truly despicable!
Even in death, he wouldn't let Frederick be.
The more Maggie thought about it, the more puzzled she became. Why had Frederick, who had initially
abandoned the cooperation, ended up signing the contract?
Maggie couldn't fathom Frederick's true intentions, but at that moment, she truly missed him.
She fought back the urge to cry, her gaze returning to the contract with a cold sneer.
"Maurice finally got what he wanted. Now, in Stonebridge City and across the nation, he's virtually unrivaled."
Chuck, without any reservation, poured himself a cup of Maggie's tea, took a couple of sips, and shook his head.
"If you're talking about being unrivaled, that's not quite true."
"What do you mean?"
"The Silas you askedto look into this morning is impressive. He's not just a
big nin international venture capital, but also the vice chairman of international trade. Maurice needs Silas's
approval for a lot of the exports."
"Is he that influential? Maurice needs his approval for exports?"
Chuck nodded. "Absolutely! He has real clout on the international stage, standing at the pinnacle of the
pyramid."
"Then between him and Frederick, who's more formidable?"
