Meanwhile, Connor returned to Thomas’s office.
When Connor entered the office, he found that Jonas and the others had already left. Only Thomas was sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
“Mr. McDonald, you’re back?”
When Thomas saw Connor, he quickly stood up and greeted him with a smile.
“Thomas, thank you so much for today. If you hadn’t called Freya over, I might not be Mr. McDonald now!”
Connor was still thinking about what Freya had said to him, so he was obviously absent-minded when he spoke.
“This is what 1 should do!”
Thomas smiled and replied, then looked at Connor and continued, “Mr. McDonald, I think Miss Phillips still has you in her heart. She just can’t accept this.”
“I hope so!”
Connor nodded gently, then looked at Thomas and asked, “Now that the lawyers have left, there shouldn’t be anything for me to do, right?”
“Yes, the Arbitration Council has ended. Mr. McDonald, you’re still the only heir to the old Chairman. All your assets have been unfrozen. If you have any problems, you can call me at any time! “Thomas said respectfully to Connor.
“No matter what, 1 still have to thank you for today’s matter. Go and inform the employees in the company that everyone will receive an additional 20,000 dollars bonus at the end of this month!”
Connor looked at Thomas and said expressionlessly.
Actually, after todays incident, Connor no longer cared about moneyas much as he did last night. He was already prepared to lose everything. Now that he had lost it and regained it, he did not feel excited at all. It was just like what Freya had said. Right now, Connor might not even know what he wanted.
“Alright!”
Thomas quickly nodded.
Connor looked at Thomas indifferently and asked in a puzzled tone, “By the way, you haven’t answered my question yet. Why did you help me?”
Connor could not understand this matter because at that time, Thomas had no reason to stand up and help him because no one knew who would inherit the inheritance in the end. According to Thomas’s character, neither side would offend each other. This was the best choice.
However, Thomas’s reaction this time was out of the norm. He didn’t hesitate to offend people like Yannick for Connor1 s sake.
According to the situation at that time, Yannick’s chances of becoming the heir were much higher than Connor’s. Therefore, Connor couldn’t understand why Thomas did this.
After Thomas heard Connor’s words, he couldn’t help but look at Connor and then say softly, “Mr McDonald, I didn’t help you today because of any personal motives, but rather because 1 think you are the most suitable person to get this inheritance!”
“I am?” When Connor heard this, he couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment. Then, he asked in confusion, “What do you mean by that?”
“Originally, I planned to tell you about this after you graduated from university, but I didn’t expect the incident with Yannick Lee to happen, so I can only tell you in advance now!”
Thomas paused for a moment, then looked at Connor with a serious expression and said, “Mr. McDonald, actually, you’re not just getting an inheritance now. You are also inheriting a mission! ”
“Mission?”
Connor looked at Thomas in front of him, and the expression on his face seemed to be even more puzzled.
“Yes, it’s a mission to complete the last wish of the old Chairman. I think you have more courage than Yannick to complete this task.’’Thomas nodded at Connor.
When Connor heard this, he couldn’t help but raise his head and size up Thomas. Then, he frowned and asked, “No, what exactly is this mission you’re talking about? Other than asking me to marry Freya, the contract doesn’t mention anything else, right?”
“Mr. McDonald, you don’t have to be so nervous. 1 didn’t ask you to do what I said. You can choose whether you want to do it or not. This won’t affect your qualifications for the inheritance,” Thomas whispered to Connor.
Connor hesitated for a moment, then asked expressionlessly, “Just tell me, what is it?”
Thomas looked at Connor and asked, “Mr. McDonald, have you heard of Rockefeller Consortium?”
“Rockefeller Consortium?”
Connor thought for a moment after hearing the name, then shook his head and said, “I’ve never heard of it…”
“Rockefeller Consortium is known as Rockerfeller for short. It’s a large-scale investment group that the old Chairman founded overseas. Whether it’s international or domestic, Rockefeller’s influence is terrifying. It’s the actual shareholder of many international luxury brands…” Thomas explained.
“The actual shareholder of many international luxury brands?” Connor looked at Thomas, and his expression became even more puzzled because he didn’t know what Thomas was going to say to him.
“Mr. McDonald, I know that you won t understand if I tell you this now, but let me give you a few examples.”
Thomas looked at Connor with a faint smile and then continued, “You should know about Penguin Corporation, right?”
“Of course, who doesn’t know about it?”
Connor quickly nodded. After all. Penguin was the top Internet company in the country. Its products were basically all over Oprana. Among the products. Honor of Kings was one of its be st-known games and was reigning supreme over the game industry.
Although Connor didn’t spend much time online, he wasn’t stupid enough to not know about Penguin Corporation.
Thomas looked at Connor and said slowly, “Rockefeller now holds 51% of Penguin Corporation’s shares!”

When Connor heard this, he was instantly stunned. He asked with a puzzled expression, “Shouldn’t Harvey Martin be holding the largest number of shares in Penguin Holdings? How did it become Rockefeller?’1
“Haha…”
Thomas smiled faintly and said softly, “Mr. McDonald, if it were an ordinary person, it would seem that Harvey Martin holds the most shares in Penguin Corporation. However, that is not the case, in actuality, Rockefeller is the largest shareholder of Penguin Corporation. It is just that they usually do not participate in the company’s operations, which leads to many people not knowing about Rockefeller’s existence!”
After Connor heard this, his mouth immediately opened wide, and his heart was extremely shocked.
He had never thought that Rockefeller would be so powerful that it controlled 51% of Penguin’s shares! If Connor didn’t have any idea about this Rockefeller before, then now he completely understood!
