Chapter 156 - 156: 156: Attracted by This Woman
The corners of Olivia Jenkins’ mouth curled up slightly in an ambiguous smile.
Her eyes were still filled with a sharp light, her gaze not moving away from Benjamin Johnson.
“I understand the more funding means a larger share to distribute. I’m not unwilling to bear the risks. The problem is, I don’t have shares to distribute. If a lawsuit over inheritance takes place, it’s common for it to last two or three years. Even if it’s quick, it still requires a year and a half. Jenkins Group can’t wait that long. Could you, President Johnson?”
With an innocent yet beautiful face, she was essentially astute and calculating, yet her sharpness remained concealed. Suddenly, Benjamin looked at Olivia admiringly.
Indeed, she was a much stronger opponent than Lexi, no wonder Daniel would choose Olivia over Lexi. This woman was indeed compelling, her eyes beaming with radiant light.
Clearly, Olivia was not a woman who would be at a disadvantage, yet she acted generously and appropriately, and had defensible reasons.
Unexpectedly, Benjamin started to exhibit further curiosity towards Olivia.
He was eager to comprehend her inner thoughts with just one glance.
“I’ve looked at the plan you proposed, it’s excellent. I am interested in your proposal. On the other hand, my team has evaluated Jenkins Group. There are some scandals, but they are within control. Overall, the Group still has advantages.
If Chief Jenkins decides to collaborate with Zenith Capital, I am ready to sign an agreement with you. Zenith Capital would invest first. You would promise to exchange shares equivalent to 10% of your inherited assets later. I can also sign an additional clause stipulating that within three years, Zenith Capital won’t sell or transfer the shares of Jenkins Group.”
Benjamin’s proposal was luring, and it would be odd if Olivia did not find it tempting. However, she remained composed.
If it turned out to be a trap, once she jumped in, there’d be no way back. She could face an insurmountable disaster. Therefore, Olivia wouldn’t hastily probe.
“President Benjamin, do you think I will definitely win the inheritance lawsuit? If I lose, let alone the promised shares, I will be rendered penniless and expelled from Jenkins Group. The 10% share agreement will then be null and void, causing you a loss without any benefit!”
Benjamin laughed deeply, his handsome face showing no waves, elusive, leaving others guessing what he was thinking, “Chief Jenkins, you are a smart person. I believe you won’t lose. If I happen to misjudge, I am willing to forever exit the venture capital industry.”
“If Chief Jenkins needs my help, I am more than willing to offer it. I can ensure you will win, as long as you open up to me.”
Olivia’s long eyelashes quivered slightly, “Are you willing to help me unconditionally?”
“Capital intervention is equivalent to having the assistance of resources.”
Olivia’s sharp eyes narrowed and the space between her eyebrows wrinkled. “That seems nice, but I still feel tremendous pressure. In fact, I can’t quite process it yet. Benjamin, excuse me, I need some time to think about this.”
Benjamin unfolded his hands in a gentlemanly manner, “I fully understand your position, Chief Jenkins. And I’m looking forward to becoming a close business partner. I genuinely admire you.”
The woman standing in front of him was no pushover. She was as cunning as a fox.
Moreover, she tread with caution at every step.
She was swift in adjusting her strategies according to situations.
This was the first time Benjamin had dealt with such a woman. He couldn’t help but look forward to her final decision.
I genuinely wish to learn from you, I hope we have the chance.”
“If Chief Jenkins doesn’t mind, I would like to visit the robot base of Jenkins
Group..”
