To become part of the 1%, or even 0.1%, he sacrificed a lot, but also gained a lot. ```

Chapter 167: Outsmarting Oneself

"Mayfield transferred our stocks?!" Dean said, listening to the news on the phone with a look of disbelief.

"Yes, they reached a preliminary agreement on the very first day you went to Los Angeles." David Morgentaler could barely suppress his laughter.

The timing was impeccable; Dean didn't know whether to laugh or be angry.

"David, while I'm angry that Mayfield privately sold the shares,

I'm also curious, didn't they watch that talk show, or the Los Angeles Times the next day?"

This wasn't Dean being narcissistic, but under such a huge reaction, the normal reaction would be to wait a few days first.

"Who knows?" David Morgentaler shrugged on the other end of the phone, "Maybe they heard something? But I bet Glenn is regretting it now, hahaha~"

Every time David Morgentaler thought of Glenn Miller's smug strategy and then looked at the support Byte Company was receiving from the public and politicians, he couldn't help but want to burst into laughter.
