Chapter 53
David and Lily arrived in the middle of the lake.
After they got off the boat, they were led to the second floor of the building by an attendant.
“Here you are.”
The attendant opened the door of the hall on the second floor and said to both of them after gesturing to
them.
David and Lily entered the hall on the second floor.
In that instant, they felt as if they had entered another world. This hall was at least 5000 square feet, and
i t was luxuriously decorated with shiny lights. There were over a hundred people there and they
gathered i n groups as they chatted.
More than ten tall good-looking attendants were holding trays with alcohol and food as they walked in
and out of the crowd.
This was the first time Lily visited a place like this, so she was nervous. She gently tugged David’s shirt.
“Don’t be scared. Relax, just take whatever you want to eat,” David patted Lily’s shoulder and comforted
her.
To be honest, he had never seen this kind of scene before and was pretty nervous himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, he remembered that he was the richest man in the world and that everyone else should be
nervous, not him.
Then, the two walked into the hall.
When David walked past an attendant, he took a glass of wine.
After he took a sip, he found it pretty tasty.
On the other hand, Lily was much more reserved.
“Dave, you’re here!” Andy walked over with a glass of wine.
“Andy, sorry for the long wait. Let me introduce you, this is my cousin Lily and she’s attending university
in Lake City. Please take care of her in the future, Andy.”
“What are you saying, Dave? Isn’t your cousin also my cousin? Just contact me whenever you need
anything, Lily. I have some reputation in Lake City.”
After Andy finished talking, he handed Lily a gold-plated name card.
“Thank you, Andy,” Lily said softly.
“Lily, you should hang out by yourself first. You can eat anything you want and treat this as your home. I
need to talk to Dave about something.”
“Alright, go ahead.”
Andy then brought David to a private room on the third floor,
When David entered the room, there were already two people inside.
There was a man and a woman. The man looked like he was in his forties and he appeared cultured and
refined.
The woman should be in her thirties. She had light makeup on, and had the charm of a mature woman.
“Dave, I’ll introduce you guys. This is Mr. Josh Thomas and Ms. Holly Sheffield.
“This is my friend David Liddell, and he’s the fourth shareholder.”
Andy briefly introduced both sides.
After David shook hands with Josh and Holly, he sat down.
At this moment, Andy started to tell them about the project.
To put it simply, Andy had a contact and managed to get himself a diamond mine in Safari Land. He had
been to the place to look at it and the quality was top-tier. The total investment was about 15 billion to 20
billion.
Andy was prepared to invest 5 billion for 40%, and he would let the others invest in the other 60%, which
was valued at 10 billion.
Because he still had to go through various formalities and established contact between all parties, he

This meant that David and the other two would need to invest 10 billion and account for 60% of the
shares.
Both Josh and Holly contributed only 2.5 billion, with each person holding 15% of the shares.
What remained was 30% of the shares, which was 5 billion.

“Dave, if you don’t think you can handle that, we’ll get another shareholder. I’ve inspected the mine
myself and it’s definitely a new one,” Andy told David.
Could not handle it?
David felt that this amount was too little. It was only 5 billion. “Alright, I’ll invest 5 billion and have 30% of
the shares.” “Alright, it’s decided then. I’ll send the information to you all later. Here, let’s have a toast.”
After David left, Lily started wandering around the hall and slowly relaxed. No one was paying attention
to her, so she was happy.
When she was at the place where they served food, Lily stopped walking.
