Aveline looked at him in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
Gavin remained silent for a moment before finally speaking, "What exactly is their plan?"
Hearing this, Aveline smiled.
Gavin had agreed to help.
She told Selena about it.
Selena was thrilled and said, "Once everything is settled, I'll treat Gavin to a meal."
Aveline replied, "Mm-hmm, I'll pass along the message."
Selena went to tell Aaron about it, but his expression darkened.
Selena asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Aaron responded, "I don't need his help."
Taking over Fletcher Enterprises was something he could handle on his own.
But Selena said, "The more people we have, the stronger we'll be. If we can gain control of Fletcher Enterprises without bloodshed, wouldn't that be even better?" Aaron, however, replied, "Do you realize that debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay? If he helps me, how am I supposed to repay him?"
"Uh..." Selena fell silent for a moment. She had considered this but had thought too simply. In the business world, favors could always be returned when needed. Aaron pinched her cheek and said, "I'll handle this, so don't worry. If you're really bored, you can go to Larbor City and visit Aveline."
Selena's eyes lit up, but she quickly shook her head and said, "No, I want to stay here with you."
Aaron kissed her and said, "So clingy?"
Selena wrapped her arms around him and said, "Yes, very clingy. I can't live without you. Why don't you just tie me to your belt?" Aaron couldn't help but laugh.
Aaron knew that if he wanted to take over, the first step was to gain the support of the senior shareholders. However, half of the key figures were Kendrick's close allies, and some were even from Nathalie's family. These people would never agree to Aaron taking over so
soon.
As the saying goes, "A new broom sweeps clean." What if one of them got caught in the crossfire? It would be a risky move.
Aaron didn't intend to communicate with those shareholders.
Instead, he went directly to the remaining few, veterans of Fletcher Enterprises who no longer involved themselves in the company's affairs but still held veto power over major decisions. Over the years, Kendrick and Nathalie had tried to buy out their shares, but none had succeeded.
Aaron used Lucas' intelligence network to locate the first shareholder, Samson Hawk. He was currently living in a care home.
Samson was in his sixties, but his health had deteriorated over time. His children had settled him in the care facility, ensuring he had the best of everything, though they rarely visited him.
Aaron, along with Selena, brought a gift box and headed straight for the care home. It was nestled in the woods, far from the city, with fresh air and a serene environment. Their car stopped at the entrance, where someone immediately came to check. Aaron handed over his business card.
They were escorted toward the building, and along the way, Selena admired the beautifully landscaped gardens and flowers. She remarked, "When I get old, I'd like to live in a place like this."
Aaron replied, "Our children won't exile us to a place like this."
Selena glanced at him. "The kids aren't even born yet, how would you know?"
Aaron confidently responded, "They're my children, of course I know!"
His confidence was almost amusing.
They knocked on the door, and shortly after, a man in a caretaker's uniform opened it. Seeing them, he asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
