Chapter 30: Thales
The transition from Drake Systems to OmniTech Systems went smoother and quicker than Ethan initially expected.
He expected to encounter at least a bit of headache, maybe with Avance since they seemed to be more interested in acquiring Drake systems than actually collecting their what was owed to them.
But since Drake systems was now acquired by another company, they couldn’t pressure Camila and could only leave with what was owed to them.
Although, if Ethan had to admit, it cost him a lot more than he expected. With the $2.7 million dollars owed to Avance plus the one million he had to pay to secure the actual acquisition of Drake Systems, the entire deal totaled nearly $3.7 million.
More than half of the money he’d gotten from Google was now gone.
Not that he regretted it.
It gave OmniTech full ownership of a powerful server infrastructure, a moderately skilled technical staff, and a woman who could run it all without needing to be handheld. It also positioned them well for Sentinel’s upcoming launch.
But still, the cost stung a little more than he liked to admit.
Especially after allocating some of the remaining amount to Lillian, for Sentinel’s launch.
He was now almost officially as broke as when he first regressed but this time with a company and a product on the brink of launch, so this was an investment that was worth it.
So was whatever stress that came with it.
