Female Novel
Chapter 1627
But after being sure about each other, fate once again gave us the reward for our love. Even fate hinted that our lives were entangled. What else could we not try?
I increased the pressure of my hands gently rubbing the inside of Hendrix’s thumb. I waited patiently for his response.
We were quiet for nearly a minute, and then Hendrix’s deep, hoarse voice echoed in the huge villa. “I’ve told you the answer from the start. Or else why would this guy be here?”
He was talking about Tobias.
I immediately sighed with relief. Sometimes we just needed to each take a step back.
I just had to talk nicely and softly, and coax Hendrix. Everything would be settled naturally.
However, Hendrix suddenly said, “But business is not a game. Even if you have Irvin’s permission, you can’t really replace him. This is the Granger Group’s business. His long-lost disappearance will definitely make everyone in the group panic. At that time, the acquisition will still be the only way out. I just hurried it along.”
It seemed that he had chosen to believe that Irvin would never come back.
I felt a little upset and asked, “Are you saying that we should buy Granger Group, and then return it to Irvin?”
Hearing that, Hendrix’s face suddenly sank. He took his hands off my hands and answered seriously, “The Granger Group is still competitive in the industry. I can still persuade the shareholders to start the acquisition project. If we wait longer, by the time their value is minimized, I may not be able to help, that’s for certain. Irvin is the shareholder of the Granger Group. Even after the acquisition and the shares are distributed, his identity will not change. The only thing I can do is to prevent the Granger Group from falling into the foreigner’s hands.” Content belongs to NovelDrama.Orgnovelbin
Except for Hendrix and I, as well as Austin and a few old directors, the shareholders of Roberts Group were all retirees. They would only appear on every festive season where the company gave dividends. They did not care about the company’s affairs, but when it came to profits, they were the first to leap out, faster than leopards. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Roberts Group had just completed their acquisition of the Eisen Company from abroad, which had involved billions in cash flow. Now, Hendrix had to intervene in the Granger Group’s purchase case in a short time. Those shareholders who had hoped to enjoy their late years did not dare to take risks and might not have agreed.
What Hendrix meant was that Irvin would always be a major shareholder, but the company would not belong to the Granger family forever. Whether to return the company or not, would not be up to him to decide. It depended on whether Irvin would be able to afford the price. I silently withdrew my hand and didn’t know what to say.

Hendrix had done what he could. I could not find fault with it. Irvin and the Granger Group could only take a step at a time. Now, I could only pin my hope on Tobias to find out the whereabouts of Irvin as soon as possible.
We were in a deadlock. Hendrix’s phone suddenly lit up on the table, showing Evan calling. Hendrix looked down, picked up the phone, and walked to the balcony in the garden.
Staring at his back, an uneasy feeling rose from the bottom of my heart. I stretched out my hand to touch my lower abdomen, and then I felt a little relieved.
Irvin and Hendrix, the two men who had treated me the best in my life, were now experiencing the most important moments for them. I hoped God would treat them well, and everything would go smoothly.
I sighed and was suddenly nudged by Tobias. Turning to him, I saw his businessman expression as he asked, “Arianna, do you want to do business with me?”
