Chapter 200: [Bonus - ]What She Asked
"I see that you... Do you think it’s not a good idea?" Rory asked Liam.
Liam cleared his throat and wetted his lips. He fixed his collar as it is his nervous tick when he was discussing business. He never discussed business with his wife before. So, he was a little nervous about his delivery.
He can’t say that it is a cut-and-dried situation, and it is close to impossible to bring his old company to its former glory. Not to mention, he is not that interested in it either.
He wanted to know why she asks that of him though. He leaned on the counter and looked at her. "No, let me hear it first. Why?" he asked.
"Yeah," Rory was about to speak, and the oven beeped. She tucked the chicken in the oven and leaned on the refrigerator.
"I am not good at business, Fizzy. You are. You have more experience than I do. Successful experience. But I know this... Investments and connections are very important for any business to succeed. And one of the main reasons LR Holdings had to file for bankruptcy is because the investors backed off...the connections are severed, am I right? And so, the value plummeted."
Liam nodded. A whole lot went on that led to the collapse, but it could be put like this in simple terms. Their company lost its value because no one wanted to associate with a serial killer.
"They all know who you are, right?" Rory asked. "So technically you are not a very ideal partner. That’s why investors are still a bit hesitant in involving you even though you are exonerated, right?"
Liam looked at her. He wanted her to get to the point. He was getting a little impatient. What she said is all true and it hurt.
"That’s why," Rory took a step forward. "That’s why you have to bring back your old company."
