Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 553

Brielle booted up her laptop, and within moments, she was drawn into the virtual conference

room

Mason made a brief introduction of himself before turning the spotlight on Brielle. “This is Brielle, the company’s primary shareholder, and our silent partner”

Applause echoed through the digital space, a virtual gathering of the brightest minds from Wall Street and Silicon Valley. Typically, the financiers of Wall Street and the tech gurus of Silicon Valley didn’t see eye to eye, but they had put aside their differences for this joint

venture.

Though weary, Brielle couldn’t help but smile at the thought of these individuals potentially becoming the new elite. “Hello, everyone.”

These were the early adopters who had followed Mason from the start. With Brielle’s backing, the company had begun to turn a profit, its user base had doubled, and it had successfully gone public. The room was buzzing with excitement and unwavering loyalty.

Mason cleared his throat, signaling for some decorum. – after all, it was their first time meeting with the silent partner, and they should at least show some maturity.

The room fell silent as a city map appeared on the shared screen. Mason voiced his opinion first, followed by a cacophony of discussion, all waiting for Brielle to weigh in.

Brielle paused for a few seconds before asking, “Why not just in Silicon Valley?”

Like Wall Street, Silicon Valley was a paradise for investors and a hell for the uninitiated, the promised land for tech talent.

was global dominance, why. Most of the group hailed from Silicon Valley, and if the goal

was global dominance, why not establish the company at the heart of the tech world?

Brielle knew that land in Silicon Valley wasn’t just worth its weight in gold but probably in diamonds. “I understand the concerns. Currently, we can’t choose a central location in Silicon Valley. However, we can pick a spot close by with a view overlooking it. When the company survives a few more rounds of funding and reaches a valuation of a hundred billion, I promise you, we’ll move to the tallest building at the center of Silicon Valley.”

That first meeting with Brielle had the young entrepreneurs‘ blood pumping. No young person didn’t dream of making it big in Silicon Valley, but their current means were well short. However, with such a promise from the silent partner, it seemed she knew exactly what they needed. They wanted to make a name for themselves in Silicon Valley, just as Max had once NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

done on Wall Street.

Mason, too, became animated, pointing to a specific location on the map. “I’ve visited this spot, and from there, you can see the expanse of Silicon Valley. You all know the Father of Silicon Valley, right? This is where he started out.”

Gordon Moore, revered by today’s generation as the Father of Silicon Valley, was one of the founders of its culture.

Hearing this, Brielle had an idea of Mason’s plan, which was shared by all the young people present. She tapped her fingertips lightly on the desk. “Speaking of Gordon Moore, you must also know Noyce and Grove. They were called the trio of Silicon Valley giants. In an interview, they once said a competent company needs a public face, a thinker, and a doer. I believe with Mason here, you’ll be excellent doers and thinkers. As for the public face, I’ll strive to fulfill that role. Let’s work well together and live up to this era.”

After the meeting, Mason sent her a message. [Not bad. You’ve adapted to the role quickly.]

Brielle chuckled, but thinking of Max, the taste of bitterness spread in her mouth.

[Book is going to take action against us. If there are important decisions to be made, we’ll continue to meet like this online. Take care of your own matters.] Mason didn’t pry into Brielle’s personal life and gave her space.

Brielle replied with a single word, [Okay.]

After replying, she stared at the dark laptop screen, lost in thought. It was only her first day, and she was already entangled in so many issues that even finding the strength to explain things to Max felt daunting. She lightly massaged her temples before grabbing her car keys, planning to make a personal visit to Dorsey International.

As soon as she reached the lobby, she saw Ricardo being blocked by Keagan. Keagan must have said something provocative, as Ricardo threw a punch, and then Keagan was shouting about calling the cops.

Brielle’s brow twitched in irritation as she strode over. “What’s going on here?”

Seeing Brielle approach, Keagan’s arrogant demeanor diminished, but he still sneered, “Just asking him to pay back his debt. He took out a high–interest loan with the company. It’s

$300,000.”

“Keagan, don’t push me! I clearly borrowed only $10,000, and I’ve already paid back $100,000 in installments. What more do you want?!” Ricardo exclaimed.

Keagan threw down a promissory note. “You signed off on this interest rate yourself. What, thinking of backing out now? T
