Getting $10 Trillion Out Of Nowhere

: Bumped Into A High School Classmate

The next day, at 8 o’clock in the morning.

Connor arrived alone at the headquarters of Empire World Corporation.

Empire World Corporation was a well-known presence throughout the country, serving as the headquarters for all of Steven’s business in the Davenport.

Thomas was the chairman of Empire World Corporation and also the general manager of the company.

For the employees of Empire World Corporation, today was a very significant day.

The reason being that the newly appointed chairman, Mr. Connor, was going to hold a shareholders’ meeting!

After inheriting Steven’s assets, Connor had limited involvement in the company, let alone holding a shareholders’ meeting.

He had never interfered in the company’s affairs before, but now as the new chairman, he was actually convening a shareholders’ meeting, which was indeed big news.

The employees inside the company started gossiping, speculating secretly about the purpose of Connor’s shareholders’ meeting.

Some people believed that he had fallen out with Thomas and wanted to seize power from him, or even fire him.

Others thought that he might be completely relinquishing control of the company’s business and preparing to hand it over to Thomas.

Rumors and speculations like these were rampant.

Although the employees in the company didn’t know the true purpose of Connor’s shareholders’ meeting, they worked overnight to prepare various documents, including the company’s financial records, quarterly reports, and the profit situation of each branch.

Even those who had already finished work were called back to the company by Thomas and worked tirelessly all night to ensure that all the materials were prepared.

The shareholders’ meeting was scheduled to start at 10 o’clock in the morning.

However, Connor arrived at the company at 8:30 am. At this time, the people in the company were actively preparing for their tasks. Even the security guards and receptionists who were usually responsible for receiving clients had been sent to clean and tidy up.

So no one noticed that he had entered the company, and no one stopped him.

Under normal circumstances, he would not have been able to enter Empire World Corporation’s building so easily.

Of course, the scene inside the company at that time was not arranged by Thomas. He only informed the company’s staff that the chairman might hold a shareholders’ meeting the next day and asked them to prepare.

The employees in the company obviously misunderstood Thomas’s intention, so they made every effort to clean the entire building, hoping to leave a good impression on this chairman who rarely visited the company.

Connor looked at the busy employees in the company, and his expression seemed somewhat helpless. He only wanted to hold a shareholders’ meeting, not create such a commotion. Many employees had not slept all night, and exhaustion was written all over their faces.

He knew that Thomas and others were probably not here yet, so he was bored and decided to stroll around the building.

After all this time, he had only been to the 38th floor of the Empire World Building, which was Thomas’s office. He had never been to any other place.

Connor walked to the front of the elevator and pressed the button, intending to go to the finance department on the 8th floor for a casual stroll.

“Ding!”

A few seconds later, the elevator doors opened.

He stepped into the elevator.

“Wait!”

Just at that moment, a soft voice called out.

Upon hearing the voice, he quickly pressed the door open button.

The previously closed elevator doors slowly opened, and a beautiful woman rushed into the elevator, holding a cup of coffee in one hand and her bag in the other, with a look of anxiety on her face.

“Thank you!”

After entering the elevator, the woman hurriedly turned to Connor and said.

Upon seeing this woman, Connor instantly froze in place, his expression extremely shocked.

The woman also looked surprised as she observed Connor’s expression!

The woman standing in front of Connor was incredibly beautiful. She wore a pair of black knee-high boots over tight jeans, a light blue and white blouse on top, with a blazer layered over it. Her long hair cascaded casually over her fragrant shoulders, and her charming face was lightly touched with makeup, exuding both sexiness and beauty in a dignified yet unaffected manner.

“Connor, what are you doing here?”

While Connor was sizing up the woman in front of him, she stared at him with her round eyes and asked.

“Quenna, it’s you!”

Connor looked at the woman in front of him and smiled helplessly.

“Yeah, it’s been a long time since we last saw each other. How did you end up in my company?”

The woman asked him with a puzzled expression.

Upon hearing the woman’s words, his expression appeared somewhat helpless, and for a moment, he didn’t know how to explain.

The woman standing in front of him was named Quenna Graham. She was Connor’s senior from high school and two years older than him. When Connor was in his first year of high school, Quenna was in her final year. They got to know each other because she was the cousin of one of Connor’s good friends from high school. Due to their mutual acquaintance, Connor and Quenna had met a few times.

They couldn’t really be considered friends, at most just acquaintances.

However, because they hadn’t seen each other for a long time, she was now showing such enthusiasm.

Connor knew that she had always been an excellent student, and she should have already graduated. It was not impossible for her to work at Empire World Corporation.

But Connor didn’t know how to explain all of this to Quenna!

If he directly told her that Empire World Corporation belonged to him, she would definitely not believe it, and he might have to explain further. So he planned to come up with a random excuse to brush off the matter!

“Connor, you came for an interview at our company today, right?”

But at that moment, Quenna unexpectedly found an excuse for Connor.

She knew that his family background had never been good. When they were in high school, he couldn’t even afford tuition fees and often worked part-time jobs.

So it was reasonable for his to come for an interview at Empire World Corporation.

“Oh, yeah, I came for an interview…”

Connor nodded without hesitation.

“Then you might not be able to have the interview today…”

Quenna pouted and said.
