Chapter 817

Chapter 817 If She Doesn’t Want You, I Do After hearing Jonah’s proposal for a while, she waved him off with a disdainful look. “Okay. That’s all I need to hear. Since Mr. Larson came here himself, I will definitely sign this contract. However, the price you proposed has to be deducted by 20%!”

Hearing that, Jonah was stumped. Just as he was about to say something, she beat him to it.

“You don’t have to say anything else. The price you’re giving me must not be the price Lucia offered.

You must have increased it by 30% to be in her good books, am I right? I’m cutting 20% off so you will still be earning an extra 10%. That will still look good when you report back to your company and Lucia.”

At once, Jonah’s face turned pale.

Leanna hit the nail on the head––he did increase the price that Lucia proposed by exactly 30%.

He thought that he could earn some incentive since Matthew shared a close relationship with Leanna.

It was a typical example of taking advantage of a person’s trust.

Little did he know that she had seen through his little trick.

As the quotation was classified information, Lucia had just told him the exact price today.

She wouldn’t have told anyone else this piece of information as it would cause Gonzalez Corporation to fall into a passive position.

At this point, Leanna had just made a very accurate guess.

Inevitably, Jonah was very shocked. It dawned on him that she didn’t get to the position she was in today just because of her beauty.

Her capabilities were surely comparable to any man!

At this point, he didn’t dare to argue otherwise. Nodding his head, he said, “Thank you, President Sandel!”

Hearing that, she lifted her hand as a gesture that it was no big deal. Obviously, she didn’t pay much attention to him.

After the secretary had prepared the contract, both parties signed the agreement of the collaboration.

With the contract in his hands, Jonah couldn’t help but feel excited and accomplished.

Having obtained the collaboration in this project meant that he would become the president of the Gonzalez Corporation branch in Cathay.

As for Lucia, she would be the president of the company branches in the entire Asia continent.

In other words, he was going to be the sole person in charge of the Cathay branch.

It was his dream position!

“President Sandel, thank you for giving me the opportunity. To express my gratitude, I’d like to take you out for a meal. I was wondering if you have the time…” Jonah chuckled as he offered.

Without sparing him a glance, Leanna simply waved him off. “Don’t worry about that. You two can head out first. I want to have a talk with Mr. Larson.”

At once, Jonah and Tate were caught off guard.

What do both of them have to talk about?

With that, Matthew felt awkward. “President Sandel, w-what is it about?”

With a smile, she replied, “Have you forgotten about our secret?”

At once, a lightbulb lit in Matthew’s head. It must be about her daughter.

However, what she spoke had caused an immediate change in the way Jonah and Tate looked at him.

What secret do these two share?

Are they really having an affair?

While Jonah seemed suspicious, Tate looked overwhelmed with jealousy and hatred. Just like that, the two men were brought out of the office by the secretary.

Seeing the two leave, Matthew couldn’t help but complain, “President Sandel, can you not speak with such innuendos in the future? They must be getting funny ideas now that they’re out there!”

Upon hearing that, she offered a soft smile. “Why do you care what they think? I don’t mind it. Do you?”

Inevitably, he was at a loss for words.

At this moment, she leaned closer to his side before chuckling. “Why? Are you afraid that Sasha might get mad? Are you scared that she may not want you anymore? Don’t worry. If she really doesn’t want you anymore, I do!”

After saying that, Leanna began to laugh.

Hearing her spewing nonsense, Matthew was rendered speechless so he cut to the chase. “Alright, let’s get down to business. How is everything now?”

Previously, he came over because of a heart transplant.

After observing for a period of time, he deduced that everything had returned to normal.

Then, Leanna said, “Things are well with my daughter. But… something’s wrong on my best friend’s side.”
