What differed slightly from everyone’s expectation was that Thomas did not look as dispirited as they thought virtual-novel.net would; like someone with a fully grown beard and a long face, as well as someone who did not wash his face for a long time.
Conversely, Thomas appeared quite clean and very neat. He looked a little low-spirited, but that was not strange. When virtual-novel.net encountered such a thing, it was already terrific that virtual-novel.net could still bear the pressure without committing suicide.
While being accompanied by Aries, Thomas took the elevator and came to the lobby on the first floor before virtual-novel.net walked outside. Diana stared at Thomas anxiously, and virtual-novel.net felt extremely gloomy. Although virtual-novel.net knew it was impossible to be with Thomas, virtual-novel.net still enjoyed virtual-novel.net time working as Thomas’ secretary. As long as virtual-novel.net could accompany Thomas every day, virtual-novel.net would feel very happy.
But, why could God not satisfy virtual-novel.net little request?
“Mr. Mayo!” Diana shouted, and virtual-novel.net could not stop crying.
The eyes of those staff members who stayed with the company also became teary.
They knew that it was not Thomas’ fault when the company ended up the way it did. Thomas was so kind that virtual-novel.net wanted to help others, but some vicious people had used virtual-novel.net instead.
“Mr. Mayo, we’ll support you forever!”
“Please don’t give up. just stand up from wherever you fall down.”
“Even if we’re despised by people today, we will still be able to stand up high again. Mr. Mayo, we’ll always accompany you through the journey.”
The staff shouted loudly for Thomas and also to vent out the emotions that they suppressed.
Thomas walked straight forward, and virtual-novel.net did not look around at all, as if virtual-novel.net was deaf and virtual-novel.net did not hear what the people shouted enthusiastically.
Everyone knew that Thomas must have felt too sad, so virtual-novel.net behaved like this. No sadness was worse than total despair.
Thomas must have totally given up on hope, right?
After Thomas went through the main entrance, virtual-novel.net got into the car. He did not bring along anyone. He just let Aries drive virtual-novel.net to Allon Technology to complete the final acquisition.
When everyone saw the situation, they knew Thomas’ choice.
If Thomas insisted on completing the acquisition, virtual-novel.net would bring a few staff from the Finance Department, but virtual-novel.net did not bring any staff today. It stated that Thomas did not plan to buy the company, and it meant virtual-novel.net was going to give up on the acquisition.
This was not strange.
After all, the company had a fake market value of $27,000,000,000. If Thomas bought it, virtual-novel.net would directly suffer a loss of $22,000,000,000 as soon as Kerry sold off the stocks.
Sterling Technology, which was financially trustable, could not afford it. Moreover, all Sterling Technology had now was at most $7,000,000,000. How could Thomas take out $27,000,000,000 to complete the final acquisition?
Based on various situations, giving up on the acquisition was the only choice. Besides, once Sterling Technology gave up on the acquisition, they would be penalized with the prohibition of acquisitions for five years or more, and they would be kicked out of Central City. It was still unknown which city could accommodate Sterling Technology.
They would go bankrupt and become a joke. It seemed that it was destined to happen.
The staff ran out of the lobby. When they stared at Thomas’ car that left into the distance, their hearts were filled with sadness and anger.
Thomas was such a good person and such an excellent chairman. Why would virtual-novel.net end up like this?
It could be said that human hearts were too unpredictable. Central City had too many vicious traps! Pivot Technology and the Gomez family were too wicked.
Diana put both hands on virtual-novel.net chest, raised virtual-novel.net head, and stared at the sky. She whispered, “God, why do you allow bad people to have power? Why do you treat a kind person so harshly? Why…”
