My Dreamy Old Husband

“I’m sure you also know, Master Levine, that I’m not about to give my competitor a chance to defeat me.” Alice went straight to her point. This was a huge financial opportunity for anyone who would succeed in becoming the sole agent—why would Alice hand it over to someone who was her potential enemy? She’d make a fool out of herself if she accidentally nurtured someone who would later turn into a strong competitor of hers. “Furthermore, there’re more than 10 teams who are competing for this. There are loads of other teams who are stronger than her, so why would I pick her?”

Daniel was left speechless after what Alice said. He realized how his methods of tricking and convincing Cooper would never work with Alice. The last time he tried his methods of deception on Alice, she ended up with her virginity lost and her heart broken. She woke up that morning to find that the other side of the bed had gone cold, that the man who had pledged his love and loyalty for her the night before had ended up running away. Daniel no longer had the nerve to deceive Alice once again. The words he had intended to use were at the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed them before he could say it.

However, since he had promised Sophia to help her, he still tried his best to fulfil his promise. “You’re being unreasonable, Alice. Sophia was the one who helped you when your request for Taylor to be your spokesperson got rejected in the past,” he said.

With her golden-framed glasses perched on her nose, Alice looked both wise and heartless as she spoke. “That endorsement job benefited both parties. We came to a fair and square agreement. But this time, I’m the one who gets to decide who I want as the agent for Dragon Eye. If I see a team that outshines her, it will only make sense that I pick them as they would provide me with the greatest benefit.”

“The selection process isn’t just based on my personal preference. We’re also looking at a variety of other factors. I’ve shortlisted both the Mitchells and the Edwards as I need someone who can boost the sales of the product. I’ll give the exclusive rights to the team that does a better job. I’m a businesswoman, Master Levine. There’s a saying in Cethos that goes, ‘the only thing that businesswomen chase are profits’! It’s all about who can benefit me the most,” Alice explained.

Family, both Sandra and Vincent were fighting to be the agent. Although they were from the same family, they each ran their own businesses, and they approached Alice as two separate teams that represented their own companies instead of the Mitchell Family. Despite Sandra, Alex, and Vincent being on different sides as Cooper, Cooper had always perceived the Michel and Mitchell Families as two separate things. If

Family had also been split into two separate groups that were competing to be the agent. Apart from them, there was another team led by the Winston Family. There were also a few other companies who were about as qualified as Plum Technology was, while Sophia simply ignored the rest of the teams and companies as they didn’t seem to pose much of a threat to her.
