Xavion hurriedly looked toward Spencer and blurted out, "Dad! Is Finley the one who did it?!"
Spencer frowned. He paced back and forth with his chin down, but he remained silent for a long time.
Xavion was getting impatient, so he hurriedly urged, "Dad, say something!"
Spencer finally said, "I don't know who Finley is, however, I remembered seeing the Seattle George Group in the Fox family's financial report a few years back. The Fox Group's cooperation with George Group has increased substantially from one billion to several billion annually. During this period, the George Group’s share price has increased nearly tenfold because of its close relationship with us.
Xavion roared, "Is Finley an ungrateful b’ stard?!”
Spencer waved his hand, "I don’t think he did it."
Xavion asked in surprise, "Dad, all the clues are pointing at him. Who else would it be?’
Spencer shook his head. "Do you think anyone with more than hundreds of billions would take the risk of kidnapping someone and extorting them for money? Besides, he's kidnapping his biggest client. Isn't that counterintuitive?"
Xavion suggested, "He may be worth hundreds of billions, but most of it is his share’s market value. To maintain the stock price's stability, the company's major shareholder cannot reduce their stock holdings at will. Therefore, he can't cash out most of his stock. His real cash flow is greatly reduced. If he encounters some difficulties and needs the cash, isn’t it normal to take risks?"
"Something is still not right, "Spencer continued shaking his head and murmured, "Think about it. If Finley wanted to kidnap Homer, why did he come to stay with the Fox family? After Homer was kidnapped, he didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he stayed and told the maid to bring him the news?”
