Chapter 1226

Lysander didn’t respond, his attention seemingly glued to the contract in his hands.

Ethan didn’t get an immediate answer, but the rustle of papers through the receiver was a dead giveaway-Lysander was scrutinizing the document.

Undeterred, Ethan continued, “I took your advice and jacked up the prices on those old Crawley Group computers. The market’s dead-nobody’s biting. We’re sitting on a mountain of stock. The Crawley Group’s taken a hit of several million-just like that. Our stocks plummeted in a matter of days, investors bleeding cash left and right.”

Lysander was playing a dangerous game, a gambit that threatened to starve not just one fish but the entire pond.

Dump them back on the market at the original price or roll out a sale-either way, they’ll sell.

You’re about to pull a rabbit out of the hat with billions to spare. Why wouldn’t you jump at the chance?”
