"What do you mean?" Yve asked.
She was fully aware about the problem in SkyMu but she didn't know that it was that there were also problems with Stones Enterprises.
"Ever since your father died and his second wife took the reigns, the Stones Enterprises was never the same." Shiela said.
"The stocks aren't increasing. If not only because of Gray Group's Mr. Gray, we might have been overthrown for a long time now." Leonard added.
"I don't understand." Yve admitted.
Richard handed a folder to Yve and as said, "Those are the stocks of the company ever since your father died."
"It's in fluctuating." Yve noticed the graphs instantly without reading the details yet.
"Yes. Thankfully, our shares merged with Mr. Gray's comprise the majority of Stones Enterprises which allowed us to supervise everything." Leonard explained.
Yve smiled as she recalled that all those years she left and hid from Vince, he has been protecting the company.
"Dear, Mr. Gray is a really good man. At the board meeting, we were happy when we learned that you and Mr. Gray are together." Shiela said.
"Thank you for telling me all of this. But as you already know, I need to improve SkyMu first before I can take the reigns of Stones. I believe I don't have the power to help you. Most of all, SkyMu is also not doing well right now as a result of Airis' faulty management." Yve said as she clenched her fists.
"We know about that. But there is something you can do." Richard said, making Yve look at him at a confused look.
"Announce that you're married to Mr. Gray now. Have a formal wedding then let him take the reigns for you, temporarily." Leonard said.
"Stocks will instantly rise for Stones and even for SkyMu. I even heard that you're already married in papers." Richard added.
Yve looked scared as they were able to discover this news and Sylvan wasn't slow to pick it up. Thus he intercepted and said,
"You're certainly not to be underestimated. No matter how much we covered it up, you still figured it out."
"Of course. We wouldn't last in this business if we don't know how to obtain juicy details." Shiela said.
"We also heard about you, Mr. Sylvan. You're originally Mr. Gray's man and was assigned to help, Ms. Smith here."
Sylvan smiled and looked at Yve. "There's no need to worry, Ms. Yve."
"Okay. But please understand, this is not an easy matter and more than seeing this a solution to the problem, I don't want to put extra burden to Vince. Please give me enough time to think this over." Yve politely requested.
"We understand, Yve." Shiela smiled which comforted Yve's heart.
Soon the meeting ended and Yve found herself on her way home.
"Sylvan, how can you say that they're good people?" Yve asked.
"During the meeting, Sylvan sent me a copy of his finale report. They were your father's most trusted people. As soon as we arrived at the hotel, I will print a copy of Slayne's research." Sylvan explained.
"Ms. what do you think about their proposal?"
"It's far greater than what Vince and mom had planned to save SkyMu. But…"
"But?" Jaleb who is now driving the car.
"Are you worried about Primo's workload?" Sylvan always nails it on the mark. He's truly a capable person as what Vince said.
"Hmmmm…"
"Don't worry about Primo, Ms. Yve. He won't mind and certainly he can handle another company like Stones Enterprises." Jaleb said.
"Still Gray Group is a no joke plus the mafia group…." Yve thoroughly thought of it.
"Gray Group can be handled by Secondo for now since its stable and the rest of the Team Alpha headed by Slayne can take charge for it." Sylvan added.
"Besides I believe with you always beside him, he gladly take over anything." Jaleb teased her.
"Thanks. I'll seriously think about it. I don't want to be a burden to your boss after all." Yve said.
"I want him to rely on me as much as I do to him." Yve murmured to himself.
