Chapter 154: Why Him?
You know, it’s funny how things work out sometimes. Like, this whole idea, it’s not really a problem, you know? If this collaboration goes smoothly, then maybe the next one will too. There’s this thing: the reason Frank is their best bet is because their company’s philosophy aligns pretty darn well with theirs. So, there’s a good chance for more
collaborations down the line.
From a businessman’s perspective, Frank’s compromise this time is actually setting the stage for smoother cooperation in the future. Plus, by not dragging Cyril into this round, it shows he’s not looking to negotiate with Cyril right now. He’s just trying to seal this deal on his own. Sylvia’s pretty pleased about that, but…
“Let’s not rush into saying yes to him. We need to discuss internally first. We’ve been looking at a few other suitable companies lately and need to compare them. So, we can’t guarantee working with them just yet. If it doesn’t work out this time, we hope there’ll be another chance in the future,”
Juliette knows exactly what Cyril’s been up to lately. She comes up with this whole spiel about comparing companies, and honestly, it’s a decent excuse. It’ll make Frank feel a bit
*50, the reason you’re saying all this is to double–check if there might be any difficulties with this venture? Frank wouldn’t pull something like that, would he?”
“They’ve known each other for years. Last time, Frank even mentioned Cyril himself. It shows he wants to help Cyril. Even though he’s compromising this time, we still need to be prepared What it he mies to involve Cyril again?”
Sylvia’s thinking ahead more than Juliette, Juliette nods seriously after bearing Sylvia our. Yeah, there’s a real possibility of that. They’re practically on the same boat, those two. “Alright, I’ll reply to him later.”
After chamring for a bit and finishing their meal, they head back to the office, each getting back to their own tasks.
Even though sylvia’s leaning towards working with Frank, she needs to mitigate some risks, past then, her phone rings. It’s Bruce callin
Seeing the call, Sylvia sighs. She knows it’s probably Juliette waking off to inform her big brother again.
She just wanted to see where Frank stands and wasn’t planning on sealing the deal immediately. Why the need for this tattling?
Sylvia sighs again and answers the phone, “Hey, big brother.”
*50, Julette just called me saying you’ve decided to work with Frank. Why him? There are plenty of other options, logically speaking.”
Bruce already knows about Frank and Cyril’s connection, so he’s curious why Sylla picked Frank over others.
other options are great, but Frank’s team has more mature technology. Plus, Frank’s pretty easy to handle. Just pull out Cyn in a few things, and we’re good. So, the risks are lower in this scenario. But haven’t committed to working with them right away. I just want to keep him hanging for a while.”
“So, the bottom line is you’re still going with Frank. You know Frank and Cyril are connected. Why choose him? Can’t it be Benjamin? Benjamin’s company can also collaborate with us, just not on this project”
my
Big brother, your intentions are a bit too obvious. If the projects are different, how could we collaborate? If we do collaborate, it’ll be in the future. And if you keep prying into m lovelife like this, I’ll call Dad and have him set you up on more blind dates,” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Bruce goes quiet. He’s not hell–bent on Syhd getting into another relationship, he just thinks Benjamin might be a safer bet than others.
And Benjamin’s more than willing to be that tall guy. If Benjamin’s fine with it, what more is there to say?
“Alright, alright, I won’t say anything more. You decide on this collaboration yoursell. The subsidiary’s matters are settled. How are you planning to handle Ingrid?
Bruce doesn’t want to continue discussing the collaboration issue. Since Sylvia’s made up her mind, there’s not much more to say. Besides, Sylvia’s right. Working with Frank does reduce some risks, and with Cyril’s current situation well, let’s just say they’re holding the cards.
Alter discussing work matters, they hang up it’s still work hours, after all, and they both have plenty to do.
As soon as she ends the call, juliste bursts in, all flustered “Uh–oh, trouble’s brewing! Karina just announced her pregnancy online, and guess whose baby she’s carrying?
Cyll’s!”
Sylvia’s expression darkens instantly, Karina’s pregnant? What does that make of the past few years for Syhta? And why now, when Cyril’s in this mess?
“I told you this guy wasn’t any good. Look at him, still tangled up with his ex, and now there’s a pregnancy bombshell. What are we going to do?” Juliette looks at Sylvia, seeing her troubled expression, feeling for her. But the dead’s been done.
