Hannah calmed down and faked a cough. She walked forward and said slowly.
“Zen, we’re family, after all. It’d be terrible if we had a falling-out.
“No matter what, the order… will not fall into outsiders’ hands! I see that you’re quite busy, so why don’t we collaborate? We’ll share the profit 50/50. I guarantee that you’ll have no loss!”
Zephyr squinted and chuckled at her with a cryptic look.
“Your solution isn’t bad, aunt.”
Hannah’s eyes lit up. She looked happy.
“But I don’t agree with 50/50!” he said coldly.
She thought about it and faked a chuckle.
Since they were going to share it, it proved that she could turn things around.
“Then tell me, Zen…”
“You can participate in this project but not collaborate. We have a person in charge. All you guys have to do is work for her.”
“What did you say?!” Her eyes almost popped out.
Zephyr smiled. “I said, you have to work if you want in to this project. Otherwise, end of discussion!”
…
Hannah and Ava staggered out of the door.
Their faces were pale. Even in the hot weather, they were drenched in a cold sweat.
Zephyr did not give them any chances at all. He did not want to give in at all regarding the order.
They would have to humble themselves if they wanted to be involved in the project.
Hannah clenched her fists. Her lip was pale from biting it. She took a few deep breaths.
“What do we do, mom?” Ava asked in a panic. “Should we go home to get the fool to handle this?”
“It won’t work.” Hannah knew Zephyr too well.
Hannah let out a long sigh. After thinking thoroughly, apart from agreeing to his condition, there was no other better way.
“Mom, do you really want me to work for Cordelia?”
Hannah spoke earnestly. “Ava, this is just a stalling tactic… We’ll fight them slowly after getting into the project!”
Ava was unwilling, but there was nothing else that she could do.
Hannah must take back what belonged to her, while Ava could only do it as agreed.
However…
Could Cordelia, the person in charge, really master the project perfectly?
Ava revealed a cold smirk.
The person in charge had big responsibilities. The shareholders would not give her special treatment just because she was pregnant.
It was quite the opposite. As soon as she made a mistake, they would get to the bottom of it.
