Chapter 64

“He arrived pretty quickly.” Charles spun his chair around with a lazy look on his face.

Closing the document in her hand and

setting it aside, Sonia said, “Let him in.”

“Of course.” Daphne answered.

Very quickly, Titus entered the room, thereupon he gave Sonia a sharp stare.

 

As she was already used to such

workplace clashes, Sonia was

 

unbothered and only offered him a

faint smile as she gestured at the seat in front of her. “Please have a seat,

“You sure look calm!” he snarled,

almost in praise, before pulling out the chair and sitting opposite her.

Meanwhile, Charles sat by her side.

With that, she pushed the tea that she

had Daphne make gently over to Titus and said, “Thank you for your praise, President Gray. Please have some tea.”

Having no intention of drinking it at all, he merely looked down at the tea before him. Nonetheless, she didn’t

mind and only set her hands on the table with her fingers intertwined. “I figure you must have a purpose for coming to Paradigm. Co. today.”

“Since you’re asking, I might as well say it straight. I’m taking back the piece of land in the center of the city.” Titus stared closely at her.

After exchanging glances with Charles out of the corner of her eye, she returned her gaze to Titus with a smile.

“Take it back? I’m afraid that’s not

possible. After all, it has been

transferred and wholly belongs to me now. It’s not yours, so how could you

take it back?”

Realizing that he had misspoken, he

amended his sentence. “You

misunderstood me. When I say ‘take,’ || don’t mean it literally. I wish to buy it back.” Even so, he fumed a little. After

all, he could have gotten this land for

free, but Tina’s actions resulted in him having to spend money on it. This made him very frustrated.

“Ah, I see. I had, in fact, misunderstood

you.” Tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear, she continued, “In that case, how much are you prepared to spend on it?”

“I’m not one to beat around the bush.

100 million,” he proposed, lifting up one

finger as he stared at her.

However, Charles rolled his eyes and couldn’t help but reply, “Do you really think you can buy back a plot of land in the city center with 100 million? Are you joking or is Triforce Enterprise so

broke that it can’t afford to spend

some money?”

Hearing the insults directed at him,

Titus scowled. “Be careful I don’t sue you for slander, President Lane.”

Of course, Charles wasn’t afraid of idle
