Being Pursued By Ex-husband
Chapter 568
Sophia had always been good at winning people's hearts. She gave the other party time to think about it and drawled, “Mr. Lancaster, you don't need to rush to make a decision. After all, this is something huge. I'll give you three days to mull it over. If you decide to collaborate with us after that, I'll be waiting for you at Sunshine Group. Of course, it's also okay if you're unsatisfied with the price. Business deals are all about mutual agreement. It cannot be forced.”
Sophia's words made it seem as though she was taking a step back and allowing Manuel enough time and space to consider things.
However, after what had just happened, Sophia's words seemed to have a different meaning to Manuel.
He thought she was implying something with those words. Business deals are all about mutual agreement. However, it seems that she disagrees with the acquisition now.
Naturally, he was aware of the reason why. He glanced at Charlotte, who was beside him.
His expression turned grim. He was upset to hear that the price Sophia offered had a difference of five hundred million from what he had expected. He turned to look at Sophia. It was obvious that she would not be any more lenient with the price.
He had only two choices: to sign the contract today or lose the chance to collaborate with Sophia.
“I believe in you, Ms. Yarrow. I'll agree to four billion, but I have one tiny request.”
Sophia raised her brows. “Go on, Mr. Lancaster.”
“Ms. Yarrow, I hope you'll consider us first when Blueshadow enters the international market in the future.”
Sophia flashed him a smile. “Here's to a fruitful collaboration, Mr. Lancaster.”
There were still many business opportunities in the Chanaea market. It would take at least five years before they expanded into the international market.
Manuel was quite crafty to come up with that tiny request, but Sophia did not think it was a big deal.
The contract was signed within an hour of negotiation.
Sophia asked Yvonne to present Charlotte with a gift when Yvonne was sending them off from Sunshine Group. “Ms. Brooks, Ms. Yarrow asked me to give this to you.”
Charlotte, who had just arrived at the entrance, was taken aback. She could not understand what Sophia was trying to do.
Even Manuel was confused.
Ms. Yarrow said so much just now. It was obvious that she was trying to say Charlotte had offended her and that she was unhappy with the discussion. But we've already signed the contract, so why did she ask her secretary to send Charlotte a gift?
As soon as those words left Yvonne's mouth, everyone turned to look at Charlotte.
The manager beside Manuel looked at him before shifting her gaze to Charlotte. “Charlotte, what did Ms. Yarrow give you?”
Charlotte had no idea what Sophia had given her either. She was embarrassed to open it right then and there.
Yvonne smiled when she heard the manager's question. “Ms. Yarrow said she didn't mean it the other day. She's worried because you didn't want to go to the hospital for a checkup. Since you two met by coincidence today, she had me pass this gift to you as a token of apology.”
Having said that, she turned around and left.
Charlotte was rendered speechless. When she noticed Manuel staring at her, she had no choice but to take the gift out of the paper bag. Seeing that it was a tube of anti-inflammatory ointment, she turned as pale as paper.
She's obviously mocking me!
Charlotte was right. Sophia was indeed mocking her.
Manuel furrowed his brows when he saw the tube of anti-inflammatory ointment in Charlotte's hand. “Charlotte, how did you offend Ms. Yarrow?”
Naturally, Charlotte did not dare to tell the truth. She decided to make up a story, saying she didn't pay attention because she was playing with her phone and accidentally bumped into Sophia. She did not apologize as she was holding her phone. She only realized her mistake when Sophia walked away. Not long after, she and her friend coincidentally ran into Sophia again.
That friend was Heath.
Charlotte would've mentioned that it was Heath if they hadn't broken up.
However, now that Heath didn't want her anymore, it was only natural that she didn't want Manuel to know about her and Heath.
After all, the industry was only so big. She still had dreams of marrying into a wealthy family. Manuel came from a prestigious family and knew people in the circle. It would make her look bad if word got out about her and Heath.
Everyone in the circle knew how much of a playboy Heath was. They knew he changed girlfriends as though he was changing clothes.
Manuel wasn't entirely convinced by Charlotte's words.
Although it was his first time meeting Sophia, he had heard many rumors about her in the industry.
