Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 605 Money Makes The Mare Go

It was almost time to leave work.

The conference room in T Corporation.

There were 20 or so people in the conference room. There were a mix of older and younger people as well as both men and women. However, most of them were older. There were only a few young business elites, but they were undeniably T Corporation's great talents.

Dressed in a couture suit, Luke sat calmly at the head of the table. The man's tall height and impressive aura made him particularly eye-catching.

Everyone sat around the conference table in order, discussing business.

However, except for Luke, there was a somewhat distressed look on everyone's faces.

The silence lasted about ten minutes.

It lasted until Jenson Zook, a gray-haired senior member of the company, finally spoke in exasperation, "Mr. Crawford, I refuse the proposal to acquire Easy. Our company is mainly involved in technology, real estate, chemical engineering, international trade, finance, and so on. Our properties have expanded everywhere in the world. There's no need to spend billions to acquire a small company like Easy that's on the verge of bankruptcy. Moreover, although there are various e- hailing apps everywhere, Book and Go currently dominates the market. It's now number one in the entire e-hailing market. If we had taken action when Book and Go was still growing, we might have been able to get a piece of the cake, but it's too late now. I think we'll just be kissing our money goodbye even if we invest in Easy, so why bother? Besides, Easy is just an ordinary e-hailing app. How much profit can it make for the company? The loss will definitely outweigh the gains. I'm against your decision!"

The deep features of Luke's face immediately grew a little stern. "Mr. Zook, do you think the company doesn't need to prioritize on developing as long as we hold on to whatever we have gained all this while? The company's developing in two directions; one is diversification while the other is specialization. The two may seem contradictory, but they're not. What I want to do now is extend and spread out the company's main business chain to make the company's development more diversified. We're in the era of sharing economy, which has huge business potentials. Book and Go noticed this and made hundreds of billions in profits, becoming a unicorn in the e-hailing industry in just three or four years, making a name for themselves. The business opportunities in this market are beyond your imagination. Of course, I had no intention of expanding into this area before, but..."

Reaching this point, the cold and beautiful corners of the man’s lips rose slightly as if he was taunting and looking at Jenson in disdain.

"After rounds and rounds of financing and subsidy wars over the years, Book and Go merged with other e-hailing apps and finally dominated the market, occupying 90% of the online travel market. But because it's dominating the market, there are hidden dangers in many aspects, yet they've chosen to turn a blind eye. A few months ago, the murder of two young girls fully illustrated this danger. Although Book and Go has been ordered to make amendments, there's no guarantee that the same problem won't happen again. So, it'll bring more capital if T Corporation enters this market now. We'll get a lot of support from the higher-ups because they're more than happy to see some friendly competition. I aim to provide better service to customers and create a safer, comfortable, and convenient environment for e-hailing. So I'm acquiring Easy!"

Another senior member with the last name Leighton, who sided with Jenson Zook, immediately objected. "I think it's best to reconsider. After all, the upfront costs of promoting a new app and subsidizing it are extremely expensive. It might even be a bottomless pit. We don't know whether Easy will make a profit or a loss yet, so we don't recommend taking risks. Mr. Crawford, we're senior members of the board and are entitled to vote against it. I strongly disagree!”

Luke's long fingers rapped on the conference table. His words were sharp and unsparing as he said, "Mr. Zook, Mr. Leighton, I only kept you around because you helped my grandfather establish this company. But all these years, you've only shown that you have rigid ideas, stubbornly stick to conventional ways, and can't keep up with the times. I won't talk about how you're not making any profits for the company but do you think I don't know how the two of you have been abusing your power for your own gains? If it weren't for my grandfather's sake and your previous accomplishments, I would've gotten you to pack up and leave! I'm not keeping you around to question my decisions, so you'd better figure out your positions in the company. Either stay and listen to me or get the f*ck out of here!"

Luke's excessively handsome face was frostily cold. What he said even made the two who counted on their seniority in the company livid.

Everyone else was also alarmed by the domineering CEO.

There was dead silence in the conference room.

Luke glanced around at the elites, and his cold eyes landed on Jason. "Mr. Doyle, you're in charge of Easy's acquisition. Submit the detailed acquisition proposal to me tomorrow.”

"Yes, Mr. Crawford," answered Jason.

"Dismissed!"

Luke got up from his seat, his tall and straight figure quickly disappearing from the conference room.

One by one, the others rose from their seats as well and walked out of the conference room.

Only Mr. Zook and Mr. Leighton sat sullenly in their seats, their murky eyes shining with devious anger.

Be it their age or seniority, they were considered the senior members of the company. Being publicly humiliated by a young man like Luke was too much for them to swallow.

“Hmph. Luke had better make sure nothing happens to him!

“Otherwise, just look how we'll drag him down from his position of honor once we get our hands on something that can be used against him!"

At night, in the mansion.

Bianca gave Julie's hair to Luke. She was a little worried and said, "Although I've gotten Julie's hair, I can't get Mr. Norman's and Mrs. Norman's hair. They're having the family reunion banquet this Saturday..."

Luke looked at Bianca's anxious expression and pinched her cheek. "Don't worry about that. We can get the hairs from the Norman couple tomorrow and send them to Johann for testing. He does DNA tests very quickly, so we'll get the results in a few hours. There are still two days before Saturday. There's no rush.”

Bianca remained unconvinced. "How can you be so sure that you'll have Mr. Norman's and Mrs. Norman's hair tomorrow? What if we fail?"

"Have you never heard of the phrase “Money makes the mare go?" Amused by her silly expression, Luke kissed her on the lips.

The woman in his arms was soft and sweet. Luke only felt relaxed holding her. The fatigue of dealing with the old foxes in the company was instantly wiped out.

Bianca was relieved. Her furrowed eyebrows gradually relaxed after so many days.

She would find out about the test results tomorrow. She hoped they would not disappoint her...
