Chapter 103: Chapter 103: CatCo and Talks
[3rd POV]
Turns out, becoming the partial owner of a company isn't that difficult. All she had to do, was get into contact with some people who were already owning percentages of the company, and buy their shares. And considering her wealth, this was easy.
After roughly a week of buying out shares, she owned a total of 30% of the CatCo Worldwide media. It cost her a decent bit, but it was nothing in comparison to her nigh-infinite wealth that would only continue to grow. If she really wanted to, she could make herself the worlds first Trilloinaire. Not that she would do that, but she could.
She had also taken the liberty of sprucing up her background a bit more. Adding in things like a PhD or two, which was a bit more difficult than she expected, but it was possible through some magic BS and a bit of Siren powers.
With that background, her partial ownership of the Company, owning the highest percentage of the company, outside of Cat Grant herself, she was now on her way to CatCo to meet the woman herself. After a rather interesting phone call with one of the womans little helpers, of
course.
"Hmm, so this is CatCo? Not bad" Talia hummed out, as she stepped out of the elevator to the floor in which she was meeting Cat on.
Across the room, a certain Kryptonian's eyes widened at the sound of a very recognizable voice, and two hearts beating. 'Wha-why's she here?!' Kara wondered, as she noticed Talia walk around the corner.
"You alright Kara?" Winn, Kara's best friend, human, and admirer asked. He noticed the way she was looking at the tall, and mysterious woman that had gotten a lot of looks, mainly because of her beauty.
"Oh-yep! I'm fine" Kara responded, lying miserably.
"Uh huh. Does this have anything to do with the tall and very beautiful woman that just entered the room?" Winn asked with a raised eyebrow, watching as Kara immediately shook her head in denial.
"Pfft what no!" Kara replied with a smile.
"And here I thought you'd remember me, love~" A teasing voice sounded out, causing both Winn and Kara to jump.
A soft squeak escaped Kara as she turned to find Talia standing there, a small smirk on her lips.
"Oh-um, Hi Talia! What're you doing here?" Kara asked, trying to ignore the way Winn was glancing at her, having noticed the way she was acting weirdly.
"Hmm? Oh I've got some business with your boss. But, I also thought it'd be nice to see you again. Afteerall, I gave you my number and you never texted" Talia replied with a small sigh, acting disappointed.
"Not to cut in or anything, but who are you?" Winn asked, very confused.
"Hmm? Oh, I'm Talia, Talia Morningstar. Nice to meet you" Talia said with her hand outstretched, causing him to shake it in greeting.
"Winn Schott. And Morningstar? Like Lucifer or the Devil?" Winn asked, while Kara also noticed the interesting last name.
"Ah yeah, I get that a lot. Guess one of my family members down the line, really liked him or something" Talia replied with a shrug.
"Wait wait wait, why do you need to see Miss Grant?" Kara asked, going back to the comment she made earlier.
"Hmm well-" "Kiera?" Cat sounded out, for Kara, as she always seemed to forget the girls
name.
"Yes Miss Grant?" Kara said, getting to her feet and looking at the woman who just left her
room.
"Please don't delay the newest partial owner of CatCo, will you? We have serious business to get into" Cat said, causing Kara to blink in confusion.
"Partial Owner?" Kara and Winn both asked in confusion. Seaʀch* The NovelFire.net* website on G00gle to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Well yes, that is what I just said, isn't it? Miss Morningstar here, is now a 30% owner of the company. Meaning, she has much more important things to do, than talk to either of you" Cat answered with a small eye roll, causing Talia to inwardly sigh.
'I forgot how much of a bitch she can be...but that's always been a part of her character in the show. It's...annoying at times, but it weirdly grows on you' Talia thought, remembering Cat and how rude she can get to Kara and others.
Kara in response, just looked at Talia with her jaw dropped. For two reasons, 1 because the woman she met a week ago that was...dangeously attractive, was now a partial owner of the company she worked for. And 2, because an Alien was now a partial owner of a company.
"Ah, that would be my doing, Miss Grant. I met Kara here while at Noonan's a week ago, so I was just catching up with her" Talia said, causing Kara to look at her, grateful.
"So you're the one who bought me coffee? Well, thank you for that, I guess. Now, let's talk" Cat said with a look of slight surprise, while also noticing the way Kara was glancing at her. 'Hmm, seems something is going on there...who'd of thought' Cat noted.
Hearing this, Talia chuckled before following after the woman into her office.
After roughly 30 minutes of legal mumbo jumbo, they were finally able to just talk.
"So, why buy shares in my company?" Cat asked, looking at the tall woman that was sitting across from her. A woman that she inwardly admitted was very attractive.
'She's like the Ryan Gostling of women. If I was into women...I'd be climbing that any day of the week' Cat thought, somewhat disappointed at her lack of attraction to the same sex.
"I found your articles interesting, I had the money laying around, and I thought it'd be a good investment. Especially with Supergirl running around now" Talia answered with a smile.
"And does my adorkable assistant have any part in this?"
"Adorkable...quite the accurate way to describe her. And yes, I'll say she was a part of it" Talia replied bluntly, while also saving the "Adorkable" comment for later.
She also knew that Kara was 100% listening in at the moment, so it'd be a good way of making her know how interested she is in her.
"Hmm, and just how much wealth do you have, if the money you used to buy shares is just "Money laying around"?" Cat asked, her inner journalist coming out.
"Sounds like this is an interview to me. I'm assuming you want to make an article on me?"
"It's only natural, when you're buying 30% of one of the largest media companies on the planet" Cat responded with a small shrug.
"Well, let's just say the worlds richest woman title would change, if I was to ever release my actual net worth" Talia replied with a small smirk, causing Cat to raise an eyebrow.
"So you're worth more than 78 Billion Dollars?" Cat asked.
"Perhaps" Talia responded with a mysterious chuckle. Knowing she was worth literal
hundreds, if not thousands of times that amount.
Cat went silent at this, as she began to contemplate the fact that the partial owner of her own company, was vastly richer than she was. And the article this could make.
"Anything else?" Talia asked, looking to Cat.
Hearing this, Cat was about to reply, before she noticed Kara out of the corner of her eye.
Seemingly glancnig at Talia repeatedly, and trying to listen in.
Smirking slightly, Cat thought 'Time to play matchmaker'
"How would you like to go to a party?"
Talia hearing this question, smirked as she heard Kara lean in.
"Oh? Tell me more"

That's the end of the chapter!
Next chapter will be a party (The one from episode 3, I believe). Some moments with Kara,
and some other stuff. It should be roughly the same length as this one.
As said before, this volume will be much slower, and have a LOT more moments between her and the girls. Slice of life and all that. So it will be a lot slower than the last two ones. I've also got some new Class Ideas that she might be getting in the future. They're the ones
below:
Psyker (Warhammer 40k) (I've been gaining more knowledg of this verse as it is....incredibly interesting lol. And I'm pretty sure I've watched 20 lore videos in the past 3 days, several of
which were multiple hours long...)
Teigu User (Akame Ga Kill)
Sacred Gear Holder (DXD)
Lisan Al Gaib (Dune)
Kaiju (Godzilla)
Gem (Steven Universe)
I've already got plans for several of these, should she get them. And I do have some others I
am hoping she gets in the future, but it's all up to luck.
Anyways, have a good day, see you later!
