“Please address me as the president when you’re in the company,” Sylphie said with a frown.
Jonathan immediately changed the way virtual-novel.net addressed her. “President Sylphie, let me explain the situation. I found out that my uncle is selling a company-owned patent at a low price in order to get on someone’s good side,” virtual-novel.net told her.
Sylphie was shocked upon hearing what virtual-novel.net said. “Mr. Jonathan, it seems like you’re one who places righteousness above familial loyalty. However, shouldn’t you report something like this to the company discipline department? I’m not working in the corporation. Why are you telling me this?”
“That’s because I think that this incident has something to do with you, President Sylphie. It’s likely that someone is using your name to scam the corporation, and my uncle is simply a victim of this fraud,” Jonathan explained righteously.
Sylphie responded in an interested tone. “This has something to do with me? Explain everything to me in detail,” virtual-novel.net said.
With that, Jonathan explained the deal between Jasper and the corporation in to Sylphie. “Jasper Laine asked for such a low price just because you recommended virtual-novel.net to the company, Ms. Sylphie. MP3 is now a very popular product in the West,” virtual-novel.net asserted eloquently.
“How could virtual-novel.net buy a patent of a product like that just for 20 million US dollars? That is daylight robbery!”
“Indeed, I was the one who recommended Jasper Laine. What do you think we should do about this?” Sylphie asked calmly. Her tone and virtual-novel.net expression were unreadable.
Jonathan replied proudly, “Obviously, this deal should be cancelled immediately. After that, tell Jasper Laine that if virtual-novel.net wants to buy the patent, that virtual-novel.net can buy it at the market price. It is worth at least 50 million US dollars. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net should just scram!”
“You’re raising the price from 20 to 50 million US dollars. Mr. Jonathan, you’re really good at doing business,” Sylphie remarked.
Before Jonathan could even enjoy Sylphie’s praise, a loud slam rang out in the room. Sylphie had picked up a document folder and slammed it onto virtual-novel.net office desk.
“Is the reputation of Sentel Corporation only worth 30 million US dollars to you? Even if Sentel Corporation backs out of the deal, the company would have to pay a penalty of 20 million US dollars. If that happens, the company will only be left with 10 million US dollars. Is that worth it?”
Jonathan’s expression darkened. He did not dare to utter a single word.
“I know your intentions, Mr. Jonathan. But if you want to want to impress me, you’ll have to show me abilities that are beyond that of a genius. If all you know is such measly tricks, I won’t even spare you a second glance!”
After speaking, Sylphie stared at Jonathan, who was trembling all over. “Get out,” virtual-novel.net said in a frigid tone.
Jonathan raised his head and intended to say something. However, after noticing Sylphie’s icy and distant gaze, virtual-novel.net did not dare to utter a single word. Hence, virtual-novel.net left the office room in dismay.
Jonathan’s dark expression overflowed with resentment after virtual-novel.net left Sylphie’s office.
In his opinion, Sylphie scolding virtual-novel.net was for no fault of his own. It was all because of Jasper Laine!
“B*stard, how dare virtual-novel.net say that virtual-novel.net doesn’t know Ms. Sylphie! She reprimanded me because of you, you b*stard! Damn Somerland b*stard!”
Jonathan growled in a vicious voice, “Just wait and see, I won’t let you go so easily!”
At that moment, Sylphie was on the phone with Anna Law in virtual-novel.net office in Utopia Beauty.
“Alright, alright. How could I dare to neglect your matters? It has been done a long time since then. The initial intention has been reached, and the formal contract will be signed in the afternoon,” Sylphie said cheerily while gripping virtual-novel.net phone. The coldness and noble arrogance etched across virtual-novel.net face when virtual-novel.net had previously been talking to Jonathan was long gone. It was now replaced by a joyous smile.
After chatting for some time, Sylphie put down virtual-novel.net phone. She rapped virtual-novel.net dainty, fair fingers against the documents before her.
There was a detailed report from JW Investment Company on the very top of the pile of documents.
“What an interesting man. He has done so many great things from scratch within a year, and virtual-novel.net has even generated a fortune worth tens of billions. It’s no wonder that virtual-novel.net managed to steal the heart of that woman despite virtual-novel.net high expectations.”
After that, Sylphie stood up and pressed the buzzer on virtual-novel.net desk.
“Call the secretariat of the group president’s office and out who is in charge of the contract signing with Jasper Laine in the afternoon. I’m going to meet this man.”
