“Mr. Vane, don’t you think this is a bit much?”

Malcolm, with his infamous temper, huffed. “What’s too much about it? I’m ready to invest five billion dollars. Just send me the account, and I’ll wire it over today.”

Lucien had never seen anyone try to close a deal like this, blunt and absurd.

He gave a hum. “Yeah… no.
