Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 519

Meanwhile, in Lachstein, Dellshore, the meeting was suspended for the third time. When the person in charge of the other party left, Jonathan whispered, “President Pearson.”

Aidan leaned back into the chair with one hand placed on the office table, his fingertips tapping against the table lightly. He murmured lightly, “They’re trying to buy time.”

“Buy time?” Jonathan looked puzzled. “But we’re already here. Why are they trying to buy time?”

Aidan narrowed his eyes and glanced at his phone, which was switched off. “Leave now and contact Highside to see if anything has happened.”

Jonathan nodded. “Okay.”

Due to the importance of this meeting, the mobile phones of both parties participating in the discussion had to be turned off. Besides, there was no signal in the vicinity.

Not long after Jonathan’s departure, the person in charge of the other party returned. There was no sign of dignity and gravity from before. Instead, he was smiling like the spring breeze. “I’m very sorry for making you wait so long, President Pearson.”

Aidan looked at the other party indifferently without saying a word.

John took a document from his assistant and placed the file in front of Aidan. “I’ve instructed for the contract to be reprinted. Please have a look, President Pearson. If there are no issues with the contract, you can go ahead and sign the document.”

Aidan glanced at the document and snorted coldly. He closed the file with a snap and threw it at the other party. His tone was indifferent as he said, “Why don’t you just ask me to give you the Pearson Group directly?”

“What are you saying, President Pearson? We are businessmen. It’s only natural for us to do business. Besides, I can’t afford to accept the gift even if you gave me the Pearson Group, President Pearson.”

“The conditions you’ve asked clearly show that you don’t think of yourself as a person.”

When John heard the statement, he did not lose his temper and simply smiled genially. “President Pearson, we not only need to look at the final profit but also the chips in our hands when discussing business.”

Aidan’s black eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice became considerably colder. “How many chips do you have?”

John replied calmly, “Well…”
