Chapter 313

After arriving at the company, Jack went straight to Patrick, who was busy on a phone call.

Seeing Jack, Patrick quickly wrapped up his conversation and gestured for him to join him in his office for a private discussion.

Inside the office, Patrick handed Jack a contract and got straight to the point. "Ms. Trader has approached us with a proposal to invest in Drakengard Games. Here are the contract and financial details-take a look."

As Jack carefully read through the contract, his expression darkened.

Based on previous revenue projections, Drakengard Games had a net annual profit of nearly 100 million dollars. As a rising company, its market valuation should be at least three to four billion dollars.

Yet, Wendy's investment proposal offered only 300 million dollars for 30% of the shares, implying that Pentime Group valued Drakengard Games at just one billion dollars?

This was nothing short of daylight robbery.

Moreover, Drakengard Games was currently developing Legend of the East, a massive game that had already received excellent market feedback. Once officially launched, its revenue potential would skyrocket.

"This valuation is completely unreasonable!" Jack said coldly.

Patrick let out a bitter chuckle. "I think so too. I even questioned Ms. Trader about it. But..."

He handed Jack a cigarette and continued, "But Drakengard Games is in a difficult position right now."

Jack understood what he meant and frowned. "Can we make a spin-off for Legend of the East as a separate project?"

There was no way he could let Wendy take it.

But Patrick shook his head. "Ms. Trader already knows about Legend of the East. It's precisely because she sees its potential that she's willing to invest 300 million dollars.

"Otherwise, in Pentime Group's eyes, Drakengard Games-already severely undervalued-wouldn't even be worth that much."

Jack's expression grew even darker.

If Wendy was aware of Legend of the East, then separating it from the company was out of the question. If he attempted to force it, Pentime Group and Sandalwood Group would both crush them.

Faced with the overwhelming power of these corporate giants, Jack felt a deep sense of powerlessness for the first time.

After discussing the matter further without reaching any solution, Jack took his leave.

Watching Jack's retreating figure, Patrick furrowed his brows, a flicker of thought flashing in his eyes.

Just then, his phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, Patrick sighed lightly before heading into the meeting room.

Inside sat an exquisitely dressed woman with an air of elegance and unmatched beauty-Wendy. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ find{n}ovel.net

At that moment, she was gazing out the window in a daze, her eyes tinged with a hint of frost.

"Mr. Hamilton, how did your talk with your partner go? Did he accept our terms?" Patrick spread his hands. "No deal."

Wendy had anticipated this outcome. A hint of disdain instantly curled on her lips. "What? Does he actually think Drakengard Games can fetch a better price?"

Patrick nodded, his expression serious. "You should know that the games developed by Drakengard Games do have significant market value."

Wendy's face was full of contempt.
