“Mr. Presgrave, you should be careful of such a cunning and malicious girlfriend. She might even hurt you one day.” Hannie couldn’t miss this opportunity to suggest that they break up.
“Hannie, watch your words. Do not insult my girlfriend, Jared warned. Because many people were watching, Hannie felt embarrassed and left. After she left, Ellen whispered into Jared’s ears, “I caused her to trip.”
“I know.” He smirked, despite knowing his girlfriend tripped the other woman. She chuckled, then angrily complained, “She deserves it since she stole my boyfriend. I didn’t even splash water on her face. I was already kind to her.”
“You should do that next time.” Jared thought she should do whatever made her feel better because Hannie was really annoying.
On the other hand, Hannie injured her knee and was bleeding. So, she left the party early and went into her bodyguard’s car. She gritted her. teeth and swore, “Ellen, I won’t let you get away with this!”
Without Hannie’s presence, Ellen found the party more enjoyable. Later, during the jewelry auction, Jared had already chosen a white jade bracelet for her. He bid for 8 million and won.
On the way home, he gave her the gift as compensation for the grievances she felt at the banquet.
Perhaps it was the irritation from Hannie because, for once, Ellen took the initiative to get on her man tonight as if to prove her ownership.
At the height of exhaustion, she heard a low voice in her ear. “I will never let you lose in this lifetime.”
Hannie walked straight up to the representative of Presgrave Group and asked,
“Excuse me, is President Presgrave coming?” “President Presgrave has other things to attend to. I’m here on his behalf to negotiate,” a calm gentleman replied.
Hannie’s heart sank. She had put in so much effort today but couldn’t even see the person she wanted. To force Jared to show up at the negotiation table, Hannie had raised the acquisition price, as she thought that the representative of Presgrave
Group could not make decisions on his behalf. Her decision would have made Jared show up in person.
However, when Hannie raised the price, which she could hardly bear, she looked at the representative of Presgrave Group, who remained very calm, as if the person was not worried about her price increase.
“Miss Quins, do you really want to make a purchase agreement with our company?” The other company also realized that Hannie was here to cause trouble and was worried that her actions would disrupt their acquisition plans.
“Of course, I am sincere. Why? Do you think my company does not have the capability?” Hannie sneered. No one dared to offend her. The representative adjusted their glasses and said, “No, that’s not what we meant.” 300 billion, replied the representative of Presgrave Group calmly. A hint of cunning flickered through Hannie’s eyes as she raised the card in her hand and said, ‘I offer 320 billion.”
“350 billion.” “380 billion.” Hannie maintained her composure, thinking of raising the price a bit more. She just wanted to force Jared to show up.
“400 billion.” “420 billion.” Her hands clenched into fists under the table. “450 billion.” The representative of Presgrave Group continued to calmly increase the bid, and he didn’t even look at her.
500 billion.” Hannie raised her voice, which. caused her assistant and manager standing behind her to look tense. Is she crazy? She bid 500 billion. Is this joke going too far? they thought.
At this moment, the representative of the Presgrave Group finally hesitated and did not speak.
“You surely can’t make the final decision. Why don’t you ask President Presgrave to come over?” Hannie said with her arm crossed as she faced the representative on the opposite side.
“President Presgrave has given his instructions. As long as the amount exceeds 480 billion, our company will give up on this acquisition. Miss Quins, you have won the bid. Congratulations,” the representative of Presgrave Group announced. He stood up and turned to the representative of the company being acquired. “We have other matters to attend to. We’ll leave first.”
Hannie’s face suddenly looked stunned. She sat stiffly in her seat while looking at the representative of the Presgrave Group. She bit her lip tightly. This was definitely not what she had expected. Presgrave Group actually gave up?
“Wait, I…” Hannie wanted to say that she regretted it, but she couldn’t bring herself to do it in front of so many people.
“Wait a moment. I still need a few days to think about this. We also need to wait a little longer for the payment of the booking fee.” “Our contract specifies that if the booking fee is delayed, we will charge a certain amount of penalty fee.”
“What?” Hannie’s eyes widened. “The penalty fee is usually over 10 million per day.”
Her eyes widened even more. She couldn’t afford such consequences, which meant that she had hit a wall this time.
“Miss Quins, although I don’t know why you participated in this bidding, if you don’t have the intention of acquisition, you can give this opportunity to companies that truly have acquisition intentions, such as the Presgrave Group.”
“But didn’t they give up?”
“In fact, our expected acquisition price did not reach 50 billion. If you talk to the representatives of the Presgrave Group and give up the opportunity, our company will. negotiate with them again.”
“Are you sure?” Hannie’s restless mind finally found a way out.
“Yes, but it’s up to you to negotiate with Presgrave Group. We hope that you can negotiate with them sincerely because your behavior today may have angered them.”
After everyone else left, she sat in the seat with a pale face and held her head. Darn it! What have I done? This is f*cked up! “Miss Quins, should we inform the president of the company about this matter?”
“No, do not inform my dad! We can’t let my family know about this.” Hannie was immediately exasperated.
“Well, what should we do now? Are you really going to beg the people from the Presgrave Group? If you don’t give up this opportunity. within three days, our company will have to pay a penalty fee.”
Hannie wanted to cry. She only wanted to force Jared to see her, but she didn’t want to get herself into trouble. Now, she had to beg him instead. She felt like this was a trap he deliberately set up to trip her.
And she had stupidly fallen into it. She immediately took out the business card they had just exchanged and found the representative’s card from the Presgrave Group. She dialed the phone number on the card. “Hello, who is this?”
“Hello, I’m Hannie. I have something to discuss with you.” “What can I help you with, Miss Quins?”
“Well, I’ve decided to give up the acquisition opportunity to your company. The RY company delegation also expressed their willingness to renegotiate the cooperation. I wonder if your company… is willing to renegotiate, though?” Hannie asked tentatively
“I’ll make her return to where she came from.” Jared hated women who were full of themselves.
“Okay.” Ellen agreed with his approach. It seemed that those women who tried to seduce him didn’t need her to drive them away, he could handle them himself.
Meanwhile, Hannie returned to her room and immediately asked someone to send a car for her. She was going to the Presgrave Group. After finishing lunch, Ellen was planning to go to the chess club. This time, Mr. Linton also decided to open a chess club in Averna. Ellen was the one who provided the funds for the decoration, so he gave her a 50% stake, making her a shareholder.
“Wait a minute. Come with me to the company first. I’ll take you to Mr. Linton’s chess club tomorrow.” Jared pulled her over. “Huh? Why do I have to accompany you to the company?” She was a little confused.
“I want you to sit back and watch a good show.” Jared believed that Hannie was in a hurry to meet him, so Ellen had to be there to embarrass her She thought for a moment and nodded. “Okay, let’s go.”
Hannie’s car set off from the hotel and headed toward the entrance of Presgrave Group. She no longer had the arrogance of a wealthy young lady because she was in a position to ask for help.
She made an appointment to meet Jared at the front desk. Due to her urgent requests, the receptionist had to contact Stanley to arrange the earliest possible time for her to meet him.
Stanley informed Jared of the message, and since he had just arrived at the company, he replied, “Let her wait for an hour before seeing me.” “Okay.”
Hannie had no choice but to wait for another hour in the lobby. Even though she was impatient, she had to wait obediently no matter what. She had to meet Jared within seventy- two hours, or else she would have to give money to the company that was being acquired for nothing.
She was willing to wait even for a day, let alone just an hour. Ellen sat on the sofa in Jared’s office. She took a rest for a while, and finally, the hour was up:
On the other side of the front desk, Hannie urged again. Stanley finally reported to Jared, and he said, “Let her come in.”
