Melody Strikes Back
Chapter 205
âNo.â Owen came back to his senses and shook his head. Iâm not dissatisfied.â
Ken raised his hand and made a gesture. He said calmly, âI have other things to do, so I wonât send you off. James, send him offâ
âYesâ James bowed and opened the door for Owen.
Owenâs mind went blank. He walked out of the door mechanically, his heart filled with question marks.
Ramon Swanson really wanted to acquire Taynorma Capital. After all, Taynorma Capitalâs entertainment company was not small. Even if it was a highâpriced acquisition, it would definitely not lose out in the long term.
Owen thought, Ken should be panicking when I suddenly proposed to cancel the merger and acquisition because Ramon would definitely fly into a rage when he returned. Why is Ren so calm? Is he pretending to be calm, or does he really not care!
It was undeniable that the Swanson Group was definitely the best place for Taynorma Capital. He did not really want to give up on the Swanson Group. He just wanted to use this opportunity to scare him so that Ken would not lower the price so much.
Owen clenched his fists tightly and barely managed to stop his hands from trembling.
Just as Owen was about to leave. Ken suddenly called out to him, âMr. Nathan.â
Owen immediately stopped in his tracks and heaved a sigh of relief.
He thought, âKen was indeed pretending to be calm! Now that I am really about to leave, he cannot pretend anymore!
Owen was overjoyed, but he pretended to be calm. He turned around and asked calmly. âMr. Swanson, is there anything else?â
There was a smile in Kenâs voice. âI just want to ask you a question. Does Thynorma Capitalâs other shareholders know shout the money you
Owen was stunned on the spot. The color on his face turned white at a speed visible to the naked eye.
âHow do you know..â Halfway through his sentence, Owen realized that something was wrong and quickly corrected himself. âI donât understand what Mr. Swanson is saying
âIs that so?â Ken played with the cup in his hand and said meaningfully. Then I might have made a mistake. Goodbye, Mr. Nathan.!
James walked up to Owen and smiled. âMr. Nathan, please.â
Owenâs footsteps were weak. He did not even know how he walked out of the Swanson Group
When he came back to his senses in extreme fear, he realized that he had already arrived outside the Swanson Group.
When it rained, it poured. The chief assistant called and said, âMr. Nathan, bad news! Something has happened at the entertainment company! A few celebrities have jointly posted a thread saying that the companyâs executives have been exploiting them for a long time. Also, thereâs a problem with the real estate group we invested in a few months ago. They said that we have used cheap materials to build houses and want to sue us. The companyâs market value has plummeted and we have lost tens of millions of dollars. Please return to the company quickly!â
Owenâs legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
After a while, he found his voice. âLet the public relations department deal with it first. Til be right backâ
âYes!â After the call ended, Owen touched his back. His entire shirt was drenched in sweat,
At this moment, Owen finally understood that he was no match for Ken.
Owen turned around and walked back, but he was st

backâ
James smiled and said, âMr. Nathan, Iâm really sorry. Mr. Swansonâs schedule is very packed today, so he doesnât have time to see you for the time beingâ
Owen was extremely anxious. âMr. Deeds, please make an exception. I really have something urgent to discuss with Mr. Swanson.â
James smiled faintly and said, âMr. Swanson is really busy today, but he asked me to convey a message to you. He will squeeze out some time to see you when you are clear about what you want to say to himâ
Owen was speechless. It was as if something was stuck in his throat. He could not even breathe properly.
James looked deeply at Owen. He leaned forward and said in a low voice. âMr. Nathan, thereâs nothing that canât be resolved. It depends on how you plan to resolve iLâ
With that, James patted Owenâs shoulder with a sympathetic expression. Without looking at him again, he turned around and left.
Owen stood in the lobby for a long time. It was not until the assistantâs second call that he walked out of the Swanson Group in a daze and drove
away:
However, what Owen did not know
that as soon as h
as soon as he left, Ken walked out of the building.
James, who was following behind him, was not stingy with his flattery. âMr. Ken, youâre really too awesome! You didnât see Owenâs expression at that time. As a man about to turn 50, he was actually about to cry! However, if I were him, I would definitely cry too He thought he could threaten you to raise the merger price, but in the end, not only did you directly wish him a better future, but you also evaporated more than half of Taynorma Capitalâs market value. If I were him. I might have died on the sporâ
Ken stopped and turned to look at him. âAre you very free?â
James immediately shut up and went to prepare the car.
In Serenity Villa, Melody had been in a bad mood ever since she found out that the post was posted by Janet while Ken kept Janet safe and hid this fact from her.
Especially after she told Ken that Ulric called her, Ken still did not give any big reaction. Her mood became even more depressed.
Previously, she thought that Ken had given her a chance to join Ximber Tech because Ken had already seen her ability. But now, it seemed that she was still an insignificant existence to him.
If that was the case for Ken, it was even more impossible for Melody to deal with Ulric.
She had to hurry up and help Ken poach Zack to prove her ability.
Even if Zack did not like to be pestered, she could not continue waiting.
At this moment, Wilmot Sherman called
She quickly answered the call and looked at Shane, who was sleeping soundly beside her. She lowered her voice and asked, âYou came back to Silverlabe
Wilmot said. âYes, Iâm on my way back to downton from the airport, but I have to go back to the company first. Can I ask you to help me send Shane to the company?â Wilmot sounded very guilty, but as a single father, sometimes he was too busy
âAlrightâ Melody agreed without hesitation. âIll bring Shane over now.â
Wilmot had just hung up when his brother. Leo Sherman called him. âWhere are you?â
Wilmot answered, âTen minutes to the office.â
Leo said. âHurry up and come over. Jessica Summers brought a lot of media to the company and said that they wanted an explanation. Now, the entrance of the company is blocked, and the public opinion on the Internet is on her side. Dad handed the company to you before he died. If you destroy it, how can he be at ease in heaven?â
Wilmotâs voice was cold and deep. âIâll be there soon.â
Leo didnât say anything else and hung up
Ten minutes later, when Wilmot got out of the car, he only saw many people at the
entrance o
of the company.
He saw Jessica crying in front of the camera. âThe Silk Beauty spent four years developing the AllâPurpose Water. Itâs only been on the market for a few days, but itâs already been slandered everywhere⦠People believed that Silk Beauty stole the formula from somewhere. Some people even claimed that the AllâPurpose Water is a lowâquality product. I really donât know if everyone is targeting Silk Beauty or domestic beauty products. I hope everyone can give Silk Beauty a chance and give this industry a chance.â
Jessica cried so hard that even the media was moved.
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, âWilmot is here!â
As soon as that person said this, everyoneâs eyes instantly locked onto Wilmot. Their gazes were a little unfriendly
The media swarmed forward and surrounded Wilmot with microphones.
Menever the school. They hate me demo
