“You’re keen on working with Kearny Technology, but Cindy refused, huh?”
Charity soon grasped the point.
No wonder Levi dared not take Shedrick into the company. It was because Cindy had been secretly acting against Shedrick, and if Levi accepted Shedrick, it would result in a falling-out with Cindy.
“Could Cindy have suggested making me kneel and beg her for forgiveness?” Charity guessed grimly.
“No.” President Gilbert said in embarrassment, “She said she didn’t want the money. All she wants is ten percent of Eagle Videos’ shares.”
Amused, Charity burst into laughter.
It suddenly hit her that Cindy was different from before.
In the past, Cindy would use despicable means to deal with Charity or tear people apart in secret. She would also weep in front of Chester and feigned pity.
Now, she was a lot smarter.
Eagle Videos had become well-known internationally. By relying solely on the ten percent of the company’s shares she owned, she would be eligible for a high dividend every year. What was more, she could easily join the board of directors and kick up a fuss with ten percent of shares. On top of the Jewell family’s connection, she could also slowly win over people around her.
“Who will give up their shares?” Charity’s eyes swept over the two of them.
Feeling torn, Levi said, “Let’s meet each other halfway. I don’t want to do this either, but competition is tough on all platforms. If I’m not careful enough, the other companies will soon catch up with us. In this era, we can get quickly eliminated. Currently, apart from us, many other platforms are interested in buying the new technology of Kearny Technology. If our company rejects them, Kearny Technology will work with other platforms shortly. It’s just a matter of time.”
President Gilbert nodded. “The technology of video-streaming platforms is crucial. If it always has bugs, the clients will leave, let alone the users.”
Charity rubbed her brows.
President Gilbert, who was quite old, was looking straight at Cindy. He quickly rose to his feet and asked Cindy to take a seat.
As Charity observed Cindy, Cindy was doing the same to Charity.
Cindy felt something was different about Charity, but she could not tell what was different.
“Eliza, I didn’t expect you to be here.” Cindy’s delicate, red lips curled into a smile. “It’s been a long while. Did you put on weight?”
“I gained five to six kilograms,” Eliza admitted openly. Earlier, she had gained 20 kilograms when she was pregnant, but after delivering her baby, she lost a lot of weight. It was no doubt that there had been changes in her body, but she could not be considered fat because she was originally skin and bones.
Cindy clicked her tongue. “Even so, you need to watch out. You looked pretty elegant when you used to act in movies. If your fans see you now, they might be shocked. Those reporters, in particular, might throw nasty remarks at you, like calling you an old lady.”
