Chapter 334

Chapter 334:

Bryan nestled his face into the crook of Eileen’s neck and inhaled deeply, the scent comforting him and easing the ache of separation he had endured for days.

Eileen’s body was pinned against the office door by Bryan’s warm chest, making her momentarily breathless.

She turned her head, her short hair grazing his ear, tickling him.

He slightly tilted his head, thinking she had done it deliberately. But then, she turned away and pushed him with some force.

He looked at her, questioning, “Is a hug too much?”

“Let go!” Eileen said. The hug was long—why was he asking her this now?

“How about a kiss then?” Bryan gently touched her lips with his finger, his eyes dark and mirroring her annoyed look.

“Enough!” Eileen really couldn’t handle him like this.

Bryan withdrew, even taking a moment to tuck a stray lock of her hair behind her ear.

He then took a seat at the desk, straightened his suit, and prepared to shift focus to work matters.

His formal demeanor made Eileen think she might be overthinking things, and that his actions were merely affectionate gestures.

Just as Eileen settled into her chair, Julio arrived with Benjamin.

Dalares came in to pour some cups of coffee and then exited the room.

“Mr. Dawson, could you please share your evaluation of Warren Group’s business value and compare it with Mr. Nash’s earlier assessment?” Julio motioned for Bryan to begin.

Benjamin chimed in, “My perspective isn’t as extensive as Mr. Dawson’s, so any differences in our evaluations likely stem from my limited analysis.”

Benjamin was serious, hesitant to equate his analysis with Bryan’s.

“Warren Group isn’t in as poor a condition as you might think,” Bryan declared straightforwardly, looking towards Eileen. “The company, as I believe Ms. Curtis has also discerned, holds solid value. The subsidiaries of Warren Group possess distinctive attributes and have been consistently growing. Though the growth is slow, it is meaningful for a company aiming for long-term viability.”

While stagnation typically implied regression, the consistent growth of Warren Group had helped it maintain its status, which was a positive development.

“Warren Group is certainly a worthwhile investment. With proper management, the potential returns could be great.”

Eileen concurred with Bryan’s evaluation, which tempted her to mention that Benjamin might have underestimated the value of Warren Group before.

However, she considered it a minor issue and ultimately chose not to mention it. The acquisition seemed promising regardless.

“The general view is that Warren Group is declining, especially after the previous scandal involving Kian, which resulted in many partners withdrawing and a disruption in the funding chain. But Warren Group has a strong foundation; it’s merely short on cash,” Julio said. “I must acknowledge, the strategist who orchestrated Warren Group’s downfall behind the scenes is quite cunning. They capitalized on the situation to take control, manipulate Kian, and create internal disorder. Then, while destabilizing the company, they wanted to sell their shares at a low price and fueled rumors…”

“Frankly speaking, the whole scheme was aimed to target Kian.”

After hearing this, Eileen remained silent for a few seconds, then turned her gaze to Bryan.
