The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Haynes smiled faintly. "Of course. We're all on the same team, aren't we? It doesn't really matter who takes the lead on this project."

"Who knows," he added, "with these cutting-edge tech companies on board, the Pearce Group might just shoot up into the ranks of the most renowned firms."

Stella's eyebrows twitched ever so slightly.

She'd always thought Haynes was the quiet, reserved type. Clearly, she'd underestimated his ability to spin a vision.

Haynes's words had a calming effect-Shawn's father's anger seemed to melt away, replaced by a rare smile in Stella's direction.

"Ms. Cameron, I'll have my assistant start drafting the stock transfer agreement. Meanwhile, you'll want to get your funds ready. Three days from now, we sign."

Stella nodded with a smile. "It's a deal."

Shawn's father didn't linger, soon taking his leave.

The tech companies under Stella's control had enough influence to sway the global landscape. Building a connection with someone like her could only bring benefits—never drawbacks. Besides, Stella was buying in at market price. No matter how you looked at it, it wasn't a loss.

After he left, Stella frowned slightly.

The Pearce Group wasn't on the same level as the Williams Group, but backed by the Solmaris government, acquiring a 20% stake was no small feat. Stella had plenty of resources at her disposal, but her cash flow was limited.

Selling off any of her original shares was out of the question.

After thinking it through, Stella decided to reach out to Lauretta and Antoney Watson for help.
