Chapter 601: Chapter 601: Interest Above All
However, the anger from Old Sir River was not so easy to calm down.
Especially as he was busy with a task lately——buying stocks from small shareholders of the Simmons Group.
This was implicitly approved by Old Sir River, as it was opportunistic and driven by self-interest.
As for other considerations, they were irrelevant.
As a result, he had even less time to deal with Tiffany Lynch’s issues. Even if she occasionally called him, it was only to cry, which gave him a headache, and his attitude became colder than before. All he said was, "This is just Hannah Winter’s temper, if she asks you to apologize then you should apologize, it’s not a very severe matter."
Being born with a golden spoon in his mouth and taking over a huge company like the River Clan as an adult, George River was immersed in business affairs since childhood, and naturally did not take the matters of the entertainment industry to heart.
He did not understand Tiffany Lynch’s so-called grievances. If she wanted resources, he could give her, he even bought rankings for her, if she wanted to continue her development in the industry in the future, Prideful Entertainment would certainly support her whole-heartedly.
Tiffany Lynch’s voice hoarse from crying, "George, you don’t understand, I have apologized to Hannah Winter, but she and her agent are forcing me to apologize live, I... I can’t take it anymore, what will my family think if they see this?"
When she mentioned her family, it was in the hope that George River would remember their shared past.
But she forgot, as an exceptional figure like George River, he naturally had his own pride. He felt in debt and wanted to compensate for it, it showed that he still had feelings for Tiffany Lynch.
But even if he liked someone, even if he was taken into account due to past sentiment, being reminded of it like this again and again, only made him feel tired and irritated.
He rubbed his temples and his tone became significantly colder, "When you initially begged me to get involved in this matter, you should have thought of the consequences. Since your team has already issued an apology statement for you, an additional apology won’t matter."
Tiffany Lynch was stunned.
What does he mean ... it doesn’t matter?
Seeing her being bullied, George River was saying it doesn’t matter.
In the office, his secretary knocked on the door, seemingly having something urgent to say.
George River didn’t have the patience anymore, so he just said, "HQ Entertainment is an independent corporation, I can’t interfere with their decisions, the only thing you can do now is increase your own value. Once things stabilize, I will have resources arranged for you, that’s it."
Tiffany Lynch stared blankly at the disconnected call and collapsed on the bed, unable to hold back any longer.
She didn’t cry, but she couldn’t resist screaming to vent her emotions.
What did George River consider her to be?
Just a kept woman?
Did he get rid of her just by throwing a few resources at her?!
In a frenzy of emotion, she didn’t know that over on his side, George River had encountered a new issue.
The secretary walked in anxiously, "Director River, the deal we had discussed with the Simmons’ shareholders was intercepted halfway."
A cold flash shot through George River’s eyes, "Have we identified the culprit?"
The secretary shook his head, "We checked, but the other party acted covertly, however, they were very generous with their resources and have already snatched up several small shareholders we had a deal with."
The Simmons Group had been developing well under Arnold Simmons’ control, and its swift growth could be described as phenomenal, even vaguely surpassing the River Clan.
But the news of Arnold Simmons’ death shook the foundations of the Simmons Clan as if it were a mansion in a storm, causing instability and everyone wanting a share of the spoils.
