Back in Time: Unshackling From Love

Chapter 20

Mikayla opened her email inbox and found responses from the companies she had previously applied to.

During her college years, she obtained a prestigious financial investment analyst certification, making investment firms particularly interested in her profile.

Two companies invited her for interviews, and two others offered her positions. However, due to her lack of work experience, the salary offered was lower compared to other investment analysts.

Mikayla sent brief thank–you emails to these companies.

While she initially considered returning to work in her field to regain professional experience, her decision to collaborate with Taylor had temporarily ruled out joining other companies.

After replying to the emails, Mikayla opened the information about Ansoft Enterprise.

In recent years, Ansoft Enterprise experienced rapid growth as a prominent liquor distillery. It promoted itself with slogans emphasizing its rich history and intangible cultural heritage, gaining significant recognition.

Mikayla recalled that in her previous life, after Ansoft Enterprise went public with a successful round of private equity financing, its market value soared, contributing to substantial profits for Miller Group’s Bernhal Enterprise.

With numerous appealing projects to invest in, companies naturally had many options.

Although Taylor was formidable, he still fell short of the financial prowess of the Miller Group, making it a more formidable force.

Presumably, in her previous life, Taylor had also been involved in the competition but ended up losing.

At that time, Mikayla’s focus was entirely on Jerome, neglecting anyone else besides him.

If she wanted to secure this project, Mikayla needed to offer a bid that would outperform Bernhal Enterprise but remain within its assessed value.

In her previous life, when Ansoft Enterprise went public, major media outlets rushed to report on it. Mikayla recalled that news articles mentioned the investment amount and ownership percentage of Bernhal Enterprise.

However, official reports might not be entirely accurate, so she had to use them as references and analyze the situation based on actual circumstances.

With these thoughts in mind, Mikayla immersed herself in studying the data.
