บท 47: This Is War

The next morning, I prepared for war, putting on my best suit.

It was time to put my money where my mouth is.

I walked through the doors of Abstract Capital, Oliver's venture capital firm, like a man with a plan. And I had one.

I needed to bleed Oliver of as much cash as I could. I might not be able to get Sunset Inn a valuation of five hundred million but I definitely won't go less than three hundred and fifty.

Back to Abstract Capital, they had me wait in the lobby for a few minutes before someone came to escort me upstairs. 

I had half expected Oliver to keep me waiting for longer just to play mind games but that was not the case. Maybe he just wanted to get this battle over with.

When I reached his office, Oliver greeted me with the kind of polite nod that had everything but friendliness.
