A reporter, “I can’t believe someone has the guts to invest in Alonso Corporation at this point…”
Chloe paused for a moment, a faint smirk playing on her lips, a hint of irony flashing in her eyes.
“I don’t think someone with a net worth of 30 billion would just hand it all over to Alonso Corporation with no strings attached…” She finished, commanding the attention of the reporters present with her casual demeanor.
She casually added, “Did the Alonso Corporation give up operating rights in a certain region, or did they sell a portion of their shares?”
Wendy, Chloe’s competitor, couldn’t miss any news about Chloe.
Right now, she was sitting on a couch in Cole’s office, watching Chloe on TV, still composed even amidst media scrutiny. Chloe’s sharp insights and confidence, especially her spot-on guess about Alonso Corporation selling its shares, made Wendy’s blood boil. She felt overwhelmed by a mix of anger, resentment, and disgust.
Her expression clearly indicated that she wanted Chloe to pay a price. She despised Chloe, for she couldn’t beat her. Because she often lost, because she was always the one getting hurt, because Chloe had stolen her happiness, because Chloe had caused the current predicament of the Alonso Corporation, and because Chloe had guessed right about the source of Alonso Corporation’s 30 billion.
Because she had to give up her own shares.
How could she possibly be in a good mood when Chloe had guessed all her troubles?

Cole sat beside her, his brows furrowed as he watched Chloe on the screen, his expression grave. This woman was not to be underestimated. Her stratagems were too deep. Her deductions hit the mark every single time.

effortlessly, everything was within her expectations. That was the secret to her success. But while everyone knew how to prepare in advance, they could not consider all possible scenarios as thoroughly as her. And Wendy, up until now, had been learning. But when it came to practical application, her weaknesses were exposed. Compared to a woman who had been battling in the business world for years, she was simply too green. Wendy’s loss to her was not without reason. Even he almost lost to her as well. “Focus on learning in the company and do your best to run it. Don’t use the Alonso Corporation as a bargaining chip to fight with that woman. You can’t beat her.” Cole advised Wendy. If he couldn’t handle something, he would choose to avoid it. The current Alonso Corporation couldn’t afford any turmoil. Especially with Chloe, he never knew when and where she would deliver a fatal blow. Wendy clenched her teeth in

And she couldn’t beat her. Even her father said so?
Seeing the dark look in her eyes, Cole frowned, unable to help calling out, “I’m talking to you. Did you hear me?!”
Wendy lowered her eyelids, remaining silent for a long time before saying, “I know.”
Seeing her repressed expression, Cole could also feel the unpleasantness of being oppressed. She had been through too much lately. These were hardships that most people would never experience in their lifetime.
After all, Wendy was his daughter, and he had high hopes for her since she was young. Sometimes when he calmed down and thought about it, he felt sorry for her. He could clearly see her restraint now and couldn’t help but sigh. He comforted her, saying, “You’re still young. Why not focus on improving yourself for now? Once this difficult period is over and the Alonso Corporation is back on its feet, you can deal with her however you want.”
Cole deliberately paused here, looking at her meaningfully before speaking again, “A butcher always takes time to sharpen his knife before slaughtering a pig. Only then can he kill it quickly and efficiently, do you understand?”
His implication was clear, and Wendy nodded slightly. That was right. She didn’t want to slowly torture Chloe, and she didn’t want Chloe to experience all the pain she had gone through.
