Chapter 676
“… own some shares in Crescent Society”
She murmured carefully
Theo stared at her and wondered how much she meant by “some”
Ever since he found out Ellinor had been living with Chase, he had Collin investigate the background of the Crescent Society
Crescent Society, squeaky clean and self–made, was one of the most eye–catching rising stars among domestic businesses. It had rapidly risen to prominence in just a few years, becoming nearly as powerful as the major family groups in Greenhaven.
However, the president of Crescent Society, Ida Gipson, and the vice president, Chase, were not the real bigwigs of the company. 60% of the shares of Crescent Society were held by a mysterious major shareholder who never showed his face
This reclusive major shareholder was rumored to be a young girl.
He had known for a long time that Ellinor wasn’t as simple as she seemed. Now that he knew she held the majority of the shares in Crescent Society, he wasn’t surprised
Considering her education, capabilities, wisdom, and a bit of ambition, it wasn’t surprising that she had established her own businesses at such a young age.
What surprised him now was that she was starting to open up to him.
In the past, she would always lie to him, guard against him, and keep her real situation hidden.
But now, no matter what her motives were for telling him the truth, it meant that he could understand her more deeply and control her more closely.
If she ever left again, he wouldn’t be like a directionless fly, searching everywhere for her.
As he pondered, he didn’t stop washing her hair. His long fingers gently guided the water to the back of her head, careful not to let a single drop enter her eyes
It seemed like she was worried that he would get angry, as he noticed that Ellinor was nervously trying to gauge his reaction,
Theo softened. He wasn’t angry anymore about her running away, lying, and hiding over the past month.
What good would being angry do?
Was he supposed to hit her?
He couldn’t bear to.
He teased, “No wonder you never care about money, it turns out you’re loaded!”
Ellinor rolled her eyes after hearing him tease her like this, “Who said I don’t care about money? Who would ever think that they have too much money? With money, you can do anything you want, you should know that!”
Theo squinted his eyes. “With money, you can do anything?”
Ellinor nodded, “Yeah, isn’t that the case?”
The hand Theo was using to comb her hair suddenly gripped the back of her head, and he asked meaningfully. “In that case, if I give you all my money, would you be willing to do some things for me?”
Ellinor’s eyes lit up. “All of it? How much?”
She was actually asking about the amount?
Theo wasn’t lying, “Everything from the Blanchet Corporation, including myself, will be yours.”
He stared at her sincerely, he was serious and wasn’t joking.
His overly sincere gaze made Ellinor’s heart beat faster. It took her a moment to recover, “That’s too much; I can’t accept it! I can’t handle that much wealth, nor can I take on such a big responsibility!”
