Chapter 872

After all, this was a massive investment. Five billion dollars was a figure rarely seen in the entire country. The atmosphere surrounding the signing ceremony was thus grand and serious.

Inside the conference room, an elegant array of beverages and desserts had been set out, while reporters mingled and enjoyed this rare moment of ease before the formalities began.

The moment the leadership of Genesis Games entered, especially its legendary founder, Jack, the entire room erupted in excitement. Flashes lit up the space as countless cameras turned toward him. The rhythmic clicking of shutters filled the air.

Todd leaned toward Jack and said, "Mr. Holland, please wait a moment. I'll look for the deputy CEO of Zenith Capital, Ms. Wilhelmina Dodger. All the media are here, and we can begin the ceremony shortly."

Jack nodded and watched Todd leave. He remained composed at the impending interaction with Wilhelmina. As the head of Genesis Games, he knew how to separate personal history from professional duty. Fresh chapters posted on fındnovel.net

He wasn't about to stop cooperating with Zenith Capital because of Wilhelmina. A good leader knew where the line was and when not to cross it.

While there was no shortage of large companies interested to work with Genesis Games, few could invest five billion dollars like Zenith Capital.

Zenith Capital was thus the best partner to work with. How could Jack jeopardize Genesis Games' future over personal pride?

After Todd departed, Jack sat down and prepared for the upcoming event. Before long, reporters swarmed around him, microphones extended and cameras trained, eager for a chance to interview Jack.

After all, Jack had become a rising star in the country's capital markets, yet he typically kept a low profile and rarely spoke to the press. Now that he had made a public appearance and seemed willing to talk, the media wasn't about to let the opportunity slip by.

While the team from Genesis Games handled the interviews, Todd made his way upstairs to Wilhelmina's office to inform her that the boss of Genesis Games had arrived and was waiting in the conference room.

Wilhelmina was seated in her chair, gently tending to her foot with a cotton swab.

Earlier, the abrupt car break in the square had caused her foot to bump against the car's interior. Though the vehicle was fully lined in leather, the jolt had left her with a mild swelling.

It wasn't serious, but for someone as accustomed to comfort as Wilhelmina, a minor injury was a rare torture.

When she heard that the founder of Genesis Games had arrived, she paused in surprise. Setting aside the cotton swab, she rose and followed Todd toward the stairs, asking as they walked "When did they arrive? How many people came with him?"

Todd replied cautiously, "Around five minutes ago. There's about a dozen people. But since the founder came in person, it's clear how much Genesis values this partnership."

Wilhelmina gave a subtle nod. For the first time that morning, a faint smile softened her otherwise frosty expression. She, too, was looking forward to the collaboration as it was a chance to bring together two rising giants, with limitless potential ahead.

Her thoughts drifted to the man behind Genesis Games. The world had already given him countless titles and praises.

Wilhelmina hadn't closely followed Genesis Games' every move, but she certainly knew of the rising star. He was young, barely past 20, and already the founder of one of the world's most successful game companies, Genesis Games.
