Chapter 36
Shane cast a mocking glance at Sage. “Do you think Mimosa would abandon such a lucrative opportunity to collaborate with us before Bolton Investment makes an offer?”
Sage replied, “Under normal circumstances, no. But with the right influence, things might change.”
“Oh?” Shane adjusted his sitting posture. He was becoming more interested in hearing Sage’s next words.
Sage took out her phone, retrieved some information, and handed it to Shane. ” This is Mimosa’s manager, Benjamin Xenith. I’ve gathered some background
information on him through various channels.
“It’s said that he managed to establish the winery not only due to an exclusive recipe but also with financial support from his in–laws. Therefore, he tends to
listen to his wife, who is quite assertive.”
“Are you planning to convince Benjamin to collaborate with us through his wife?”
Shane’s tone became lighter, and his patience was running thin. He thought that Sage initiating the collaboration was just for show because she lacked substantial
ideas.
He pushed back Sage’s phone and said, “This concerns the future listing
operation of Mimosa. Even though she’s his wife, she wouldn’t make such a hasty
decision.”
Naturally, Sage noticed Shane’s impatience. She casually smiled and said, “Mr. Morrison, take another look at this.”
She pulled up a photo. In it, Benjamin and his wife were posing with an elderly lady in a wheelchair.
Sage explained, “The elderly lady is Benjamin’s mother–in–law. A few months ago, she had a heart attack and was on the verge of death. A nurse performed timely resuscitation, which saved her life. Mrs. Xenith is particularly grateful.”

Shane remained silent and waited for Sage to continue.
“The nurse is my close friend. She has already told Mrs. Xenith about our intentions and helped arrange for us to visit Mrs. Xenith tomorrow morning with the proposal.”
Then, Sage handed Shane a simplified investment plan. “To avoid complications, I’ve prepared a simplified version for you to review.”
Shane took it, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. “It has only been a few hours since you lost the USB drive, yet you managed to do so much?”
Sage responded nonchalantly, “Opportunities like this don’t come often. I
couldn’t afford to miss it.”
Her connection with Priscilla Xenith was purely accidental.
After leaving Holcomb Corporation, she had received a call from Tiana. Tiana
said that her visa had been successfully renewed, and she could leave for
Lathuyria the next day.
Sage had congratulated Tiana, then shared her frustration about the futile investment plan for Mimosa.
Tiana had asked her, “Are you talking about Mimosa the winery?”
“Yeah. Do you know about it?”
Following that, Tiana had revealed that she had saved Priscilla’s mother in the
past. “Mrs. Xenith has thanked me many times and even sent me a
commendation. I heard that Mr. Xenith is particularly obedient to his wife. If you
want to meet Mrs. Xenith, I can help you out.”
The world was truly small. Who would have thought that Tiana knew Priscilla?
Just like that, Sage contacted Priscilla through Tiana and spent a few hours optimizing the collaboration proposal.
While company experts might review extensive proposals, presenting Priscilla with a clear and concise overview of the benefits and responsibilities would
suffice.

“Not bad,” Shane sincerely praised after reviewing it. “The data is succinct and covers all aspects. But won’t our shareholding percentage be a bit low?”
Sage affirmed, “Based on my analysis, this is the optimal ratio considering the circumstances. After all, Mimosa is a well–known firm. They wouldn’t be willing to give up too many shares.”
