Chapter 317: Cooperation

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Song Fan remained noncommittal, refraining from interrupting. From her understanding of Song Yi, he was indeed an outright dictator. Even her third brother, Song Huai, had only been exposed to peripheral company tasks. The other brothers had their businesses, and Song Yi didn’t seem to have any intention of choosing a successor.

He single-handedly managed the entire company, and crucial decisions were subject to his direct veto.

Despite not having a designated successor, Song Yi succeeded in expanding and strengthening Song Corporation. Song Fan acknowledged his business acumen, making Song Corporation one of the strongest enterprises in A City over the years. Almost all board members were his people, with him as the undisputed leader.

Charlie didn’t look at her but instead gazed out of the window. “I envy the atmosphere in your family. As the youngest children in our respective families, you’re the doted-upon little sister, even after years of separation. Unfortunately, being the youngest son, I’m treated like a thorn in the side of the Brown family.”

His voice carried a touch of sadness, and then he turned to Song Fan, smiling helplessly. “Miss Song, you probably don’t like hearing about other people’s gossip. But I can empathize with your current situation. You can’t be Miss Song forever.’

Song Fan raised an eyebrow, “What does it matter if I am or not? Do you think I care?”

In reality, she never cared about anything related to the Song family. Even if Song Corporation were to lose everything and finally yield to someone else, she wouldn’t mind. She had the means to stand on her own and protect the person she cared about.

However, Charlie’s next words caught her attention, and she couldn’t remain indifferent. “Miss Song, I have some knowledge of your capabilities. Achieving such skills doesn’t happen overnight; you’ve endured a lot. You also have impressive medical skills and are an internationally renowned scientist. I underestimated you before. A talent like Miss Song could be at the top in any country without relying on a small company like Song Corporation.”

Surprisingly, Song Fan didn’t show any emotion on the surface but nodded slightly, not denying his words.

She wasn’t revealing any feelings, but Charlie’s ability made her uneasy. Even Gu Chen revealed some of her identities only after some time, but Charlie seemed to know everything in detail. He might even be aware of her time in the mercenaries.

Charlie seemed oblivious to her hostility, and with a playful smile, he said, “But are you not interested in your mother’s estate?”

Song Fan didn’t rush to answer but pondered his words seriously. She was aware of the wealth of the Yu family. When she married, she brought a substantial dowry, and Song Corporation initially developed based on a company brought in as part of the Yu family’s dowry. Song Yi had also received considerable support from the Yu family.

She had always thought that Song Yi deeply loved Yu Wan and indeed treated his sons well, putting in effort to cultivate them. However, today, when Charlie pointed this out, she suddenly realized that none of her five siblings had studied business. They knew nothing about the situation at Song Corporation, only playing the roles of Young Master and Miss Song.

Upon thinking about how Meng Yu could enter the company but with rights that could be taken back by Song Yi at any time, Song Fan’s suspicion deepened. If he genuinely loved his wife, wasn’t it a bit far-fetched to blame a young girl for his wife’s death? Did he marry Meng Yu merely as a convenient move, or did he have other motives?

Charlie knew that by planting the seeds of doubt, Song Fan, being intelligent, would surely trace the clues. Moreover, what he said was all factual. He just didn’t want to reveal everything to her so quickly; things got more interesting when they were complicated.

He chuckled and said, “So, I’ve helped you quite a bit. Last time, I proposed for you to work at Song Corporation in front of so many people. If you can achieve something and enter Song Corporation, is there anything you can’t find out?”

Talking to intelligent people was straightforward. In just a few words, he brought the conversation to the point. Even though Song Fan didn’t want to get involved with him, she had to consider it now.

Song Fan looked at him expressionlessly before speaking, “So, Mr.. Brown, how do you want to cooperate?”
