A Crazy Night Novel

Anya’s expression stiffened at all the food that had to be worth thousands. Me and mouth.

Christina’s lips curled slightly. “Thank you for the treat. I shan’t hold back, then.”

Then, she walked over and took a seat, and the three of them began eating.

After sitting down, Anya began to discuss business. “I’m hoping that Gibson Corporation can provide all the materials, Mr. Hadley. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?” she asked, handing over a newly-drafted contract.

As the saying went, good opportunities shouldn’t fall into the hands of others. A lot of materials were needed to build a residential area, so it wasn’t unusual for real estate firms to have their own construction companies too.

Christina’s brows creased. We’re already gaining so much from this project, and now she’s asking to be in charge of the materials too. How greedy can you be, Anya?

“Gibson Corporation may have invested in this project, but it still falls under Hadley Corporation,” she responded, her eyes flickering. “I don’t think it’s appropriate to use Gibson’s materials.”

Anya scowled and turned to her right away. “Don’t forget your place, Ms. Steele.”

Christina’s gaze darkened. “I’m reminding you precisely because I haven’t forgotten my place,” she retorted icily.

Does she think Nathaniel is a pushover? She’s going to lose the whole project if she crosses the line and ticks him off.

Nathaniel dined elegantly, appearing completely uninterested in the discussion as there was not even a hint of expression showing in his eyes.

Anya turned to the graceful-looking man across her. “I prefer hearing your opinion, Mr. Hadley.”

He went out of his way to do all this just to get close to Christina, so maybe he’d say yes just for her sake.

Nathaniel put down his cutlery and wiped his mouth gently before speaking.

“The biggest reason behind Hadley Corporation’s residential area being so popular is that we use the best construction materials available. There hasn’t been a single quality issue with our houses within the past decade. However, I can’t say the same for Gibson Corporation. Wouldn’t it be bad for our brand if we were to use your materials?”
