Chapter 408 Lake Corporation Bankruptcy

The investigations on Lake Corporation and its imminent bankruptcy were big news, and news outlets were already reporting it. Who did this though? Pierre? He does have the power to do that. Did he do this because of what happened in the hospital between me and Finneas?

She wanted to call him, but since Pierre had blocked her number, she had to use her company phone. Pierre had just gotten to his office when his phone rang, and he smiled after seeing who the caller was. This is her office's number. That woman's so dishonest with herself. She doesn't want my flowers, but now she's calling me. He was going to ignore it to teach her a lesson, but she hung up a moment later. "Dammit!" Pierre cursed and called her back. "What is it?" He sounded impatient, as if he didn't want to make the call.

"About Lake Corporation, are you the one behind it?"

"Lake Corporation? What do you mean?" Pierre was caught by surprise.

"Don't play dumb! I know you hired a hacker to attack their systems!"

Pierre realized that Finneas' last name was Lake. So this is about him, huh? Her 'childhood friend.' Anger welled up within him. "You still can't let him go? What? You think I'm the culprit just because he's in trouble?"

"You jerk!" She hung up. That jerk. I only made small talk in the hospital, and he bankrupted him.

"Goddammit! How dare she hang up on me?" He stared at his phone and called back, but she didn't take the call. When he called her again, he realized she had blocked him. Oh sh*t. I blocked her too. Karma bit me in the *ss. But he wasn't the one behind Lake Corporation's bankruptcy. He asked Niall about it and found out that Lake Corporation was on the verge of bankruptcy, and their systems were attacked by a hacker.

I wonder who did this. "Find out who did this. I'm not taking this blame."

Niall frowned. "Honestly, President Fowler, I'd take the blame if I were you. Lake Corporation's in the cloth industry. Miss Yard's trying to create a new fashion brand. She's going to owe you big time if she manages to buy Lake Corporation out."

Pierre thought he had a point, but then he said, "What if this is someone else trying to do her a favor?"

Niall paused for a moment. Pierre was highly alert when it came to relationships. I'm not letting anyone get her. I mean, I'm going to be the first one here. "Look into this."

"Yes."

In the meantime, Selena called Pauline into her office. "You called, President Yard?"

"Lake Corporation's on the verge of bankruptcy, and I want to purchase it."

"Nice. Lake Corporation is an established company with a lot of resources. They're only going bust because of mismanagement. We can develop our brand without any problems if we manage to buy it out." Pauline was an ambitious woman. Digton was her hometown, so she wanted to make a name for herself in that city.

Selena nodded. "You'll be in charge of this. Go big or go home."

"Sure, no problem."

The moment she left, Selena stared at her screen, and Finneas' photo was plastered across it.
