Chapter 123
After returning to the room, Nathan immediately sat at his desk and went into working mode,
He leaned back slightly, leaning against the back of his chair, signaling Shawn to start reporting.
When he arrived at Acocester, he had several major cooperation projects. in progress, leaving him with no time to relax.
Shawn opened the briefcase and took out several documents to report one by one.
“The treasurer sent a message. The quarterly report has been completed, and the detailed data has been shared with your computer.”
Shawn continued, “The land in the western suburbs has been acquired, and the business partnership contract drafted by the commerce department and the legal department has also been sent to the mailbox.
He added, “The contract we translated today has been sent to our partner. I’ll continue to follow up on this tomorrow, and there’s also the New Media Summit starting tomorrow…”
Nathan listened attentively and nodded occasionally. However, his expression changed slightly when he heard “New Media Summit” at the end.
The primary purpose of his trip to Acocester was to attend the summit. His keen sense of business told him that he could find some commercially valuable products here.
“Go on.”
“Okay.”
Shawn opened the New Media Summit’s schedule and said in an orderly manner, The summit is divided into three days. The first day is a product display. All software development companies and teams will showcase and explain their products to attract buyers or investors.”
Shawn paused momentarily before saying, “On the following day, we’ll proceed with the product bidding. Participating companies will bid on each other’s prices, and the software development team can choose. whether to sell and at what price. Typically, the highest bidder wins the

At last, he said, “The final day is reserved for the closing ceremony and a reception.
The organizers of this summit intended to hold it in a high–profile manner. The identities of the participating software development teams. and their respective products were no secret to the public, and the most. prominent product had long been highlighted as the main attraction by the organizers.
Nathan came here specifically for that software.
It was a short video platform with promising prospects. Once officially launched, it could capture a market of more than one billion–users.” Furthermore, they could even consider launching an overseas version depending on market demand.
This would also benefit Miller Group in expanding its international market presence.
Once it succeeded, the profits would be considerable.
It could be said that most people who attended this summit were coming for this software.
“According to the comprehensive evaluation of all departments in our group, the valuation of this software is about 16 million dollars. The expected price of the software development team should be similar to this number, but it’s not exclusive. There are too many competitors, so the price could be raised,” Shawn said.
Nathan tapped lightly on the table, took a moment to think, and then said confidently, “The price is not a problem. I will definitely acquire this software.”
Shawn solemnly nodded.
“Yes, but there’s one unknown factor. The list of competitors and participants will be kept confidential until the summit day. However, our chances of winning are still high. With the strength and reputation of Miller Group, it’s hard to imagine that the software development team won’t choose us.”
Nathan narrowed his eyes slightly.
In the business world, everything changed unpredictably. Although he

confident in Miller Group, he couldn’t afford to be complacent.
After finishing the report, Shawn paused.
Mr. Miller, I have a guess. I’m not sure whether I should say it…”
Seeing that Shawn seemed hesitant to speak, Nathan raised his eyebrows and said, “Go ahead. Speak your mind, or leave if there’s nothing else.”
Shawn spoke immediately.
“Mr. Miller, Ms. Saunders was on the same flight as us to Acocester and is staying at the same hotel. She also mentioned being here for a
conference. Do you think she might also be here for the summit and that software?” Nathan inquired.
“No way.
Nathan instinctively denied the possibility. “Emilia doesn’t have any knowledge of software, and Saunders Group has never ventured into this field. Even if she acquired it, she couldn’t develop it without the necessary expertise and experience. She’d only end up spending money in vain.”
Shawn pondered for a moment. While Nathan’s explanation made sense, Emilia’s desire to diversify Saunders Group’s investments and bring fresh. opportunities couldn’t be ruled out.
Obviously, Nathan also thought of this. He was a little annoyed and also worried about her.
He thought, “Is she really doing such a stupid thing?”
The more Nathan thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.
After all, what did Emilia have to do with him? Whether Saunders Group went bankrupt or not had nothing to do with him.,
“Why should I worry about her?” he thought.
Thinking of this, Nathan said to Shawn with a gloomy face, “Ignore her. Just let her be.”
The summit discussion was wrapped up, leaving them to anticipate the event that would unfold tomorrow. However, Nathan still had another unresolved matter weighing on his mind.
“Did you manage to find anything after I asked you to investigate Emilia’s
muscarriage three years ago?”
It had been a while since he raised this matter, and there had been no response from Shawn. Nathan was not so happy about it.
He was eager to know what happened back then, and he couldn’t comprehend why he felt such a pressing urge.
He pondered, “Emilia and I are divorced. Is it really that crucial to find. out whether she was pregnant and had a miscarriage three years ago?”
Shawn replied, “The hospital mentioned that it’s currently under investigation. However, since it occurred three years ago, we must question the attending physician and nurses individually. The investigation is progressing somewhat slowly, but they assured us there would be results within three days.”
“Three days…” Nathan murmured to himself silently.
Nathan closed his eyes and couldn’t tell what his feeling was like at the
moment.
“If I have really misunderstood Emilia, what should I do?” he wondered.
