Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The shareholders in the meeting room were all stunned when they saw the man in the suit enter.
They were all shocked because they did not expect Connor to find an investor.
Even Cody, sitting on the spot with a very confident expression, could not help but stand up and look at Connor with a shocked
expression.
“Freya, who is this person?” Maya asked Freya as soon as she saw Mr. Hoffman enter the meeting room. A strange expression
appeared on her face.
“I don’t know either...” Freya shook her head lightly.
Thomas’s assistant usually helped him with some foreign business, so he was not very famous in Oprana. As a result, it was
normal for these people not to know who Mr. Hoffman was.
“Is he going to invest in your company? Did Connor really find an investor?” Maya stared at Connor with her big eyes and said
with a puzzled expression.

Freya took a deep breath and didn’t say anything.
That was because she did not know why Connor had brought this person over. Moreover, even if this middle-aged man had the
ability to invest in Freya’s company, he might not actually invest, so she was still a little nervous.
Connor walked to Freya’s side and said softly, “Don’t worry, I’m the one who called this person over to invest in your company!”
Freya was stunned when she heard Connor’s words. She then asked Connor with a puzzled expression, “Connor, will this
person really invest?”
“Of course!”
Connor nodded confidently, then walked to the side of the chair and sat down leisurely.
“Connor, what does this person do? Where did you find him?”
Cody was also somewhat perturbed; after all, Freya was about to agree to be with him, but Connor’s sudden appearance had
disrupted all his plans.
He was most worried that Mr. Hoffman would really have the money to invest in Freya’s company. If that were the case, then he
would really suffer a double loss!
Not only did he fail to get Freya, but he would also be slapped in the face by Connor.
“Mr. Hoffman, introduce yourself first!”
Connor turned to look at Mr. Hoffman and said calmly.
“Alright, sir—Mr. McDonald!”
Mr. Hoffman replied submissively, then turned his head and said to everyone present, “I’m Mr. Hoffman, the general manager of
the Empire World Corporation Investment Company. The purpose of my coming here today is to talk to Ms. Phillips, the CEO of
Freya Cosmetics, about future investments. Our company has recently been very interested in the traditional Oprana cosmetics
industry and is willing to contribute to the revival of Oprana’s self-produced cosmetics industry...”
Mr. Hoffman briefly explained his purpose to the crowd. No matter what, as Thomas Morgan’s capable subordinate, Mr. Hoffman
certainly knew how to deal with such an occasion.
After hearing his words, everyone was shocked.
Freya felt that all of this was too unreal. Connor had actually found an investor. Furthermore, the other party was the general
manager of the Empire World Corporation!
Although Freya didn’t know Mr. Hoffman, she still had some understanding of the Empire World Corporation. As one of the top
investment groups in the area, the Empire World Corporation was very powerful.
Meanwhile, Maya stared at Connor with wide eyes. She could not help but sigh in her heart. How could a poor loser like Connor
know such a powerful person?
“Is this person really the CEO of Empire World Corporation?”
Maya stood at the side and sized up Mr. Hoffman, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion.
Freya had already managed to control her excitement. She looked at Mr. Hoffman and asked, “Mr. Hoffman, according to what
you said just now, you should know Freya Cosmetics very well, right?”
“Of course!”
Mr. Hoffman nodded gently, then took out his notebook and tapped on it casually. He said softly, “Your company has been in
business for nearly two years, but in that time, you have lost more than thirty million. If you can’t get financing in the near future,
you might go bankrupt within two months!”
Before he came, Mr. Hoffman had already done a simple investigation of Freya’s company, so he had basically grasped all the
information about it.
When Freya heard Mr. Hoffman’s words, she became even more excited. She knew that since Mr. Hoffman knew so much about
her company, it meant that he must have done his research beforehand. Usually, only people with intentions to invest would
investigate a company in advance.
At this moment, one of the shareholders said slowly, “Since you also know that Freya Cosmetics has lost so much money in two
years, why are you still planning to invest? Does your company have money but nowhere to spend it?”
H H
When Mr. Hoffman heard this, he couldn’t help but laugh. He secretly sighed inwardly. Mr. McDonald did indeed have money but
no place to spend it, and would even casually take out 200 million yuan to invest in a company with no prospects. Only Connor
would do such a thing.
Although he thought so, Mr. Hoffman would never say it out loud.
Instead, he explained expressionlessly, “That’s right. Freya Cosmetics is indeed in a state of loss now, but our company is very
optimistic about your company’s development prospects. With the strength of our Empire World Corporation’s investment, we
have the ability to turn your company’s losses into profits within half a year!”
“Haha...”
The middle-aged man laughed coldly and did not speak.
Freya looked at Mr. Hoffman and excitedly asked, “Mr. Hoffman, what you said just now...does that mean you’re going to invest
in our company?”
“Of course!”
Mr. Hoffman looked at Freya and nodded with a smile.
“Then how much are you prepared to invest?” Freya hurriedly asked.
“I’m prepared to invest 100 million dollars in the initial stage, but I’ll need 51% of your company’s shares. However, I won’t
interfere with the management of your company!”
Mr. Hoffman had discussed this number with Connor previously.
“One...ioo million?”
When Freya heard Mr. Hoffman’s words, she froze on the spot, her face filled with shock. The other shareholders in the meeting
room were equally shocked, and their eyes were filled with awe.
Cody’s eyes were widened at this moment. He was no better than the others.
Originally, they’d already felt that it was unbelievable that Connor could find an investor today; after all, in their eyes, Connor was
just a poor loser who delivered food for a living.
How could a loser who did food deliveries manage to find a rich investor?
At this time, not only did Connor bring an investor, but this investor also wanted to invest 100 million in one go!
Even Cody was only prepared to invest thirty million in Freya’s company..
