Chapter 357: Blank
Ryder and Alice stood in front of each other. While Ryder still had his clothes, Alice was completely bare, without a shred of clothing covering her body.
Her face serene to be as red as a tomato as he looked at Ryder, whose gaze seed to be looking down at her bare body.
"A-ah, sorry about this. I didn’t know you were in the bathroom. I thought you were sleeping, so I ca inside," Ryder replied, blankly without turning back.
" T-that is fine, but c-can you turn back please?" Alice asked in a barely audible voice as she looked at Ryder, whose eyes finally focused on her face.
"Ah, right," Ryder replied as he slowly nodded her head blankly, but he didn’t turn back. His mind seed to be short-circuited that didn’t know what he was doing.
Alice’s face kept getting redder and redder as she saw Ryder looking in her eyes; her heartbeat getting faster.
#I’m on a Highway to Heaven, I’m on a Highway to Heaven#
While Ryder was lost in Alice’s eyes, his phone started ringing, which brought him out of his daze.
He could see Alice’s arms wrapped around her bare breast, barely hiding them.
"Ah, sorry. I’ll wait outside," Finally getting so sense, Ryder told Alice as he turned back and started to leave.
"Hello?"
Ryder picked up the call without looking at the number as he left the room of Alice, closing the door behind him.
" Hey there, handso," the person on the other side of the call said.
"Oh, Esmi. What made you call today?" Ryder asked Esmi, wondering what she needed.
" What do you an? Did you forget? You told to remind you about that aviation company. They did lose the code court case against their client. Their stocks have crashed like a rock. It’s at rock bottom now. The Company had almost declared bankruptcy. You said you wanted to buy it when that happened. It seems to be the right ti. You can buy their stocks and beco a majority partner of a falling company or deal with the Owner themselves," Esmi inford Ryder.
"Ah, right. I do rember now. I was so busy at work that I completely forgot. I knew sothing like this was going to happen, though. It was obvious that there was a good chance, I’ll forget. That’s why I told you to remind when it happens. Thanks for reminding . I’ll go directly deal with their majority shareholder," Ryder said as a smile appeared on his face.
"Want to co with ?" Esmi asked Ryder.
"You don’t need to. I kind of know their boss. I should be able to handle it," Ryder said as he smiled wryly.
"If that’s what you say, then fine. Anyway, when are you coming to et ? It’s been so long since we last did that. I miss you," Esmi inford Ryder.
"Ah, it should be soon. I miss you too," Ryder replied.
He noticed the door behind him opened as Alice stepped out. She was perfectly dressed.
"Alright, I’ll call you later," Ryder said to Esmi before he disconnected the call.
"Work?" Alice asked Ryder as she stood behind him.
"Yeah. I’ll be going to finish an important deal today," Ryder said to Alice.
Patting Alice’s head, he replied. "Co. I’ll drop you to college."
He stepped out of the building with Alice and entered the Whirlwind.
He had the insurance on the Whirlwind of his that was destroyed, but that didn’t cover the way he destroyed the car. Still, with the help of Shu, who had a call to the insurance company, Ryder managed to claim the insurance.
With the money that he received from the insurance, he bought another car. He once again bought the sa two-seater that he used to drive.
Stepping inside the car with Alice, he got it out of the Maxwell Estate and got it on the road.
He talked about so random things with Alice along the way. None of them ntioned about the shocking thing that happened inside Alice’s room early morning.
Dropping Alice at college, he left.
"Air Connect Limited, huh. The new addition to my Divine Corporation. I wonder if Herriet still rembers ," Ryder muttered as he took the car to the office of Air Connect Limited, which was an Aviation Organization that made planes.
It was a company that had fallen really low, but only Ryder knew that it was about to soar like a phoenix in the near future.
Without waiting for that to happen, Ryder wanted to rge Air Connect Limited with his Divinity Corporation. At the mont, Divine Corporation only had a hundred employees; only one of which was the one who was going to create a world-altering dical discovery. He had succeeded in poaching the guy who was going to beco one of the biggest nas in the Pharmaceutical Field. His next aim was the Air Connect Limited, which would make his Divine Corporation to be a multidisciplinary organization with a focus in Aviation and Pharmaceutical.
That was not all. He wanted to do many more things, which ant including many more organizations that were going to make the Divine Corporation soar to the sky.
If everything went according to the plan, the Dream Corporation was going to beco really big in a few years.
Air Connect Limited headquarters was on the north block of the city, completely opposite side of the city compared to Ryder’s Divine Corporation headquarters.
Ryder stopped his car in front of the ACL Headquarters.
Parking his car to the side, he stepped out.
"What is this place?" he asked, wondering what was happening.
He entered the building and walked up to the receptionist.
" I wish to et Ms. Herriet," Ryder told the receptionist.
" Sure, Sir. Do you have an appointnt?" The lady at the reception inquired.
" I don’t have an appointnt since this plan ca up suddenly. You can tell your boss that Ryder Flynn of the Dream Corporation is here. Tell us that we ca here to discuss about business," Ryder replied to the receptionist in a calm tone.
" Please sit there. I’ll check if madam is free," the lady told Ryder to sit as she started dialing a number.
Walking up to the couch on the side, Ryder sat down as he started scrolling through the news feed on his phone as he waited for the receptionist to finish her call.
"Ah, excuse , Sir. Madam is free. You can et her now."
While Ryder was looking through the news with a bored look on his face, the receptionist called out to him and told him that he could et the boss.
She called a person to escort him upstairs.
Ryder was brought to an office on the fifth floor where the boss of ACL was sitting.
"Co in."
Ryder heard a female voice coming from inside after knocking on the door three tis.
Opening the door, Ryder stepped inside. He saw a beautiful woman sitting on a seat behind a desk. The woman seed like she was barely in her early thirties at the mont.
"Mr. Ryder Flynn, I heard you wished to et regarding so business," the woman said as she raised her head to look at Ryder but as soon as she saw his face, her lips opened wide in surprise.
"Have we t before?" The Woman asks as if she seed to recognize him from sowhere.
"You seem to have a weak mory, Ms. Herriet. You already forgot . I, on the other hand, never forget the people I have a drink with," Ryder said with an amused smile on his face as he stood in front of the lady.
"Ah, Right! Ryder, I rember! That day I t you in a bar. Please have a seat," Herriet told Ryder as he gestured for him to sit.
"So, what business brought you here? We’re already a finished organization. I wonder how you think we can help you," she asked as soon as Ryder sat down.
"It’s less about how you can help you and more about how I can help you. I heard you’re in a tough spot, and I feel like helping a little," Ryder said with an amused smile on his face.
"Hmm? I’m listening," Herriet said with a fascinating look on her face.
"I’ll be straight. I wish to buy ACL and rge it into my Divine Corporation. My conditions are simple. I’ll buy you guys. You can continue operating normally. You’ll be the one CEO of our Aviation Branch if you wish. That’s the main gist of it. We can think about the minor details when forming the contract," Ryder told Herriet in a straight-forward manner.
"Hmm? You wish to buy ACL? May I ask why? Don’t get wrong. It’s not that I’m underestimating ACL, but even I’m not sure if we can survive this dark period and controversy. I contacted many big organizations to buy us, but they avoided like the plague despite us offering ourselves for so cheap. I don’t get it. Why do you wish to buy?" Herriet inquired.
