Bite the Bullet
Logan suddenly understood at this moment why Nicole personally came over. It was not to give Luke
Youngblood a chance. Nicole came to give Luke an ultimatum. Nicole’s tone was light, warm, and sweet.
“Mr. Youngblood, Stanton Corporation lost the advantage on this project, but we’ve done more long-term
preparation and have measures to deal with all kinds o f problems after going online while you don’t. You
have nothing but a head start.
Are you really sure that you can make it to the end? Luke’s face was glum when he raised his eyes to
look at Nicole. He did not have the gentleness he had in the beginning. “What if I just don’t want to sell to
Stanton Corporation?” Nicole laughed and slowly sighed in relief.
‘Luke’s anxious now!! She slowly picked up the cup of coffee and put it to her mouth. Just when she was
about to take a sip, Logan reminded her with a heavy cough. Nicole really was careless.
Nicole froze and put the coffee down again. She glanced at Logan, who stared back at her without a
change in expression. Naturally, Luke did not understand Nicole and Logan’s tacit understanding.
Luke was still thinking about his current passive situation as he waited for Nicole’s reply. “You don’t want
to sell to Stanton Corporation? Mr. Youngblood, with all due respect, if I didn’t value talent so much, you
would’ve already received a letter from my lawyer.
No matter how much money you spend, you won’t be able to settle this case. I will sue you until you go
bankrupt. I believe that no other investors would invest in a lawsuit- ridden project. By then, will your
company still be worth $200 million?” Perhaps even $20 million might be considered too much then.
O Seeing the sudden change in Luke’s expression, Nicole smiled. Her tone eased a little. “I could’ve kept
this from you and waited until you sold the company to someone else before suing you.
Then, when the investors suddenly withdraw their capital, your company will truly be hopeless. The
profits brought by this project will be short-lived. By then, Stanton Corporation can strike again and there
won’t be a place for you in the market.” Nicole was very straightforward.
For this kind of person who had just started a successful business and tasted some sweetness, the best
way was to let him recognize the problems in reality. DS She had countless ways to make his business
fail silently, but Nicole really took an interest in his company, which was why she wanted to acquire it.
Of course, if Luke insisted on refusing her, then there was nothing she could do. Anyway, she had given
him an opportunity. Luke’s tone was cold and solemn. He was suppressing his anger. “Ms. Stanton, are
you threatening me?” Nicole laughed.
