Marriage And Love Again

Hanging up the phone, Suny glanced at Rosa beside her, “Where were we?”

Rosa continued the conversation, Suny pondered after listening, “Investigate further.”

“Yes, Miss Holland.”

Rosa had been with Suny for five years and knew that Suny has a unique vision, there were almost no bad ones that she had her eyes on.

Suny asked her to investigate further, and it was clear that the company was not as ideal as the information suggested.

“Miss Holland, so how about this year’s annual meeting?”

“As usual.”

She would not be there.

Rosa said: “Okay, then I’ll send you the speech later.”

Suny did not attend the annual meeting, but every year Rosa would help Suny read the speech, and Suny was particularly generous, and every year she would out a considerable amount of money to do her private sponsorship of the annual awards.

Therefore, even if Suny did not attend the company’s annual meeting every year, the employees still liked Suny far more than the other shareholders.

Suny nodded, “Okay.”

She finished and looked at the time, “I’ll go back first.”

She had a lunch date with Jay. A year was almost over, and she had invested in WJ for almost half a year, and WJ was going to have its Series B after the year.

As an investor in Series A, Suny would naturally ideally like to continue to follow through in Series B.

So before that, she had to meet Jay.

“I’ll see you off, Miss Holland.”

“No need, go back to your work.”

She didn’t come to the office often and Rosa, as her secretary, had to handle almost all the matters.

There was no need to waste time.

Well, she was a very considerate boss.

Rosa stopped at the lift, “Miss Holland, be safe on your way.”

It was already eleven forty-five when Suny arrived at the hotel, fifteen minutes late.

“I had a meeting, so I am late.”

Jay had already arrived long ago, and when he saw her enter the box, he got up and greeted her, “Miss Holland.”

Suny glanced at the papers he had placed on his desk, “Have you waited long?”

“No, I’ve just arrived too.”

Jay pushed his glasses, after more than four months, the young boy who had just come out of school seemed to have grown up a lot.

Gee, not even as cute as he used to be.

“You fooled me, didn’t you?”

Suny cast a faint glance at him, “We had an appointment at eleven thirty, you will not be late and you will even come early, so you have waited for me for at least twenty minutes.”

Jay was embarrassed hearing that, “I arrived at eleven twenty.”

“Half an hour.”

Suny laughed, “For the sake of this half hour, if your statement satisfies me, I will give you an absolutely satisfactory price for the B round after the year.”

Jay actually did not want to change his investors, he had met many new company entrepreneurs over the past almost one year. Financing was a must for every company that wanted to grow bigger and stronger, but not every investor was as frank and direct as Suny.

A few years earlier, he had a senior who started a business that ended up being ruined because of excessive investor intervention.

Since Suny invested in WJ, she had never intervened in any decision or anything within WJ, except for the monthly business statements and the fact that she would have her secretary pay attention to each product development process.

Jay was eager to continue working with Suny, and when he heard Suny’s words, he became relaxed.

He had just graduated from school more than five months ago. After more than five months, Jay was no longer as naive and innocent as before.

Truly being in business was the fairest for entrepreneurs like them, and Suny had the fairness they wanted, so they would show the utmost sincerity as well.

“Miss Holland, this is our annual statement as well as user tracking information.”

Suny reached out to take it, “You order food first, I don’t eat liver, and prefer light food.”

Jay froze, and it took a few seconds before he responded to Suny asking him to order food.

Suny took the paper he handed over and began to read it. Jay could not disturb her any further, so he deliberated on what Suny had just said and ordered four dishes.

Suny had a very good memory, and was particularly sensitive to numbers.

The data was actually compiled into a table by Rosa and would be showed to her every month, and now the data Jay gave her was no different from the previous one.

She flipped through it and then stopped reading, “Is the massive uninstallation in November because of the privacy incident online?”

Jay’s face paled, but soon, he recovered.

He looked at Suny, his face had changed to a stern expression, “Yes.”

He nodded and hesitated after finishing, “And that incident had an impact on our subsequent downloads, Miss Holland, you can see the obvious change in the data, we had the highest number of downloads as well as user engagement in August and September, but after mid-November, after the online privacy incident, the growth in downloads slowed down significantly, while the uninstallations increased three to five times more than before.”

Suny looked up at him, “So you paid people for downloads and registered users?”This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Jay pursed his lips and did not deny it.

Her charming eyes still had a smile on them, but that smile was obviously not as gentle as before.

Under such a gaze from Suny, Jay had no way to deny it.

And he was well aware that fudging data was the most annoying thing for investors.

“Mr. Shaw, you should know that I am a businessman, I invest in WJ because I want to make money, my aim is simple, it is money.”

She said, pausing slightly, “You, high achievers from prestigious schools, instead of choosing a secure job with a salary of 200, 000 to 300, 000 a year, choose to start your own business, I think you are not just doing it for this small amount of money.”

“I don’t like talking to people about their dreams, but if even you don’t respect your dreams, others will only look down on them.”

Suny collected her smile: “As you know, at the beginning, your planning book could not pass the final review in Phantom at all, and it was me who contacted you privately. I was optimistic about you at the beginning, not only because you were young, but also because you were sincere and saw a future in you.”

“But now the road I once saw is so hazy.”

“Miss Holland, I’m sorry.”

Suny said, “Mr. Shaw, I am not accusing you, I am just putting forward my thoughts as an investor.”

She said, pushing the papers back, “There are more than four months to go before the B round after the year, and I hope that within that time you can show me the sincerity you had at the beginning.”

Just as Suny finished speaking, the waiter came up with the dishes.

She lifted the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea, “It’s late, let’s eat.”

Jay looked at her, wanting to say something, but his eyes fell on Suny’s eyes and finally he swallowed his words.

Suny appeared to care about nothing, yet everything was within her grasp.

Jay knew that anything he said would now be a sophistry.

He had the good sense not to say anything else, and Suny concentrated on eating.
