As Wallace passed by the meeting room, the door was open and the room was empty. Only a few used
paper cups were left on the desk
The investigation team had interrogated Carson and Ivan for more than an hour.
Wallace narrowed his eyes as a sudden thought came to his mind. He mulled over it on his way over to
the elevator While waiting for the elevator that would take him up to his office, his phone suddenly rang
Five minutes later, Wallace knocked on the door of the CEO’s office,
Almost immediately, Ivan opened the door and said, “Mr. Finch, come in.”
“Hello, Ivan.” Wallace nodded in response as the man ushered him in. Five minutes before, he had
received a call from Ivan, who asked him to head up to the CEO’s office, He glanced around the office
briefly until his eyes came to rest on Carson, who was standing in front of the French windows
“Was there any problem with the investigation team? What did they say?” Wallace asked with concern.
With a worried look, Ivan sighed and his smile earlier turned into a frown. He didn’t answer the
question. Instead, he just said, “Mr. Finch, have a seat first.”
Seeing this, Wallace knew not to ask any more questions. He walked over in Carson’s direction and
greeted, “Mr. Scott.”
When the door was closed, Carson finally turned around and nodded.
“Wallace, I asked you to come here because I need a favor from you.” “If you need any help, just tell
me. I will try my best to fulfill it.” Wallace said seriously.
Carson looked at ivan. Ivan immediately decoded the unspoken message, tapped on the tablet he was
holding and handed it over to Wallace. Confused, Wallace took the tablet, looked at Ivan and then at
Carson in confusion. Carson only signaled to him to check what was on the screen, but didn’t say
anything more.
Wallace lowered his eyes and analyzed the contents on the tablet. The stock price graph rose and fell,
fluctuating in line with the investors’ actions in the stock market. In the past month, the stock price of
the Sullivan Group’s shares had risen a few times in the middle, but the overall price was on a
downtrend and sinking fast. Today, it fell to an all-time low.
“Well…” Wallace looked at Ivan in confusion. He wasn’t sure what was expected of him.
“Please continue to the next page. That’s where things get interesting.” Wallace immediately scrolled to
the second page, and saw a more detailed data graph. Every time the stock price was at a low price,
the equity changes of the Sullivan Group on that day were specifically marked in red.
In the past month, almost every time the stock price fell to a certain number, someone would purchase
a bulk of the shares in the hands of individual investors.
Although there was not much in a single purchase, it all accumulated to one point five percent.
“Someone is buying the shares of the Sullivan Group?” Wallace frowned when he saw the pattern.
Ivan nodded.
“Their actions were not obvious before, and they only bought a little each time. But after nine o’clock
this morning, within half an hour, dozens of accounts with different IP addresses purchased so many of
our company’s public shares. If these accounts and IP addresses all belong to one person, then this
person now owns at least two percent of the Sullivan Group’s stock.”
As he spoke, Ivan swiped right on the tablet and turned to the next page, on which many IP addresses
were densely listed on the screen.
**Two percent.”
It was not a big number, but it was not a small one either
At that moment, there was a shareholder who held three percent of the company shares in the board of
directors That was to say, if this person continued to acquire the shares as they were doing, they would
soon become a director of the Sullivan Group.
With the company already in the eye of the storm, a change of equity would inevitably cause an even
greater storm.
“I see. Do you want me to find out who this person is?” Wallace put away the tablet and asked.
“No. For now, it doesn’t matter who they are.” With one hand in his pocket, Carson leaned against the
edge of the big marble desk
“At the current rate of share price decline, about 15 minutes from now, the group’s share price will be
suspended in the market.”
“So what is the plan?”
“Ivan and I have our hands full with handling the investigation team.” Carson looked up at Wallace.
“I want you to keep an eye on this person for the next fifteen minutes. I want to know just how much
they want.”
