"Yes. The Merlock family has been sponsoring the Yole University gaming team for years and has maintained a partnership with them. You've probably seen the investment returns, so I'd like to invite you to join in." Laura hummed.

Investment? The previous team captain had partnered with the Merlock family for some investment. But in reality, it was just money laundering for them.
