Samuel looked at him, “Mr. Atwood, this is Ms. Radomil, the person in charge of our company."
Christian pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose upwards and said, “That's weird. The head of the Steward
Group is surnamed Radomil. You seem to be in your twenties. Do you have the ability to manage the entire Steward
Group?"
When Samuel wanted to say something, Stella stopped him and said to Christian, “Age doesn’t have too much to do
with ability. I think you’re not young anymore, but it seems like the head on your neck is just a decoration."
Christian pondered her words for a moment before he understood what she meant, and immediately pulled a long
face, “You..."
Donald couldn't help laughing. He stepped forward and stood in front of Christian, hooking his neck and pulled him
to the side, “Don't be angry oh don't be angry. She’s just a girl and she has a bad temper."
Christian looked at him with dissatisfaction, “Who are you?"
"I? I’m a lawyer."
Christian instantly became vigilant, “Who asked you guys to come here and what do you want to do?"
With that, he said to Samuel, “I want to see Mr. Bernard? Where is he?"
Samuel replied, “Mr. Atwood, I told you just now that Ms. Radomil is the head of the Steward Group, and she is
solely responsible for this matter."
Christian snorted, “I have always been directly contacted with Mr. Bernard. I don’t know who Ms. Radomil is or who
the person in charge of your company is. What's more, it has been Mr. Bernard to follow this matter... Anyway, I will
only negotiate with Mr. Bernard. It's useless for anyone to come except him."
Stella abruptly interrupted him, “You will only negotiate with him?"
"Didn’t I make it clear enough..."
"Are you the victim? What do you want to negotiate with him? Do you want to negotiate on how to minimize the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtharm of this accident? Or on how to cover up your disgusting crime with the least cost? Or on how to continue to
threaten the victim?”
Hearing the words, Christian's face turned pale and gloomy alternatively. He moved his lips trying to say something.
Donald patted his shoulder, “Calm down. Don’t take it to your heart."
Christian sat on the sofa and said nonchalantly, “I knew you weren't here to solve this matter. Since you said so, we
can spread this news as you like. Our company is small. It doesn’t matter if the Steward Group is punished together
with our company because of this matter."
Stella smiled, “That’s true. But the one who should be punished together with your company is Armand, not the
Steward Group."
Christian glanced at her and snorted, “I’ve expected this. Before when the Steward Group had a scandal, you
shifted the blame to several high-level executives. Oh, what do you plan to do now? Do you want to play the same
trick and deny your responsibility? Let me tell you, no way! At worst we can go to the reporters and tell them the
whole thing. Let’s wait and see."
Samuel whispered next to Stella, “Ms. Radomil, this person is a rascal, just ignore him."
Stella glanced at the closed bedroom door behind her, sat on the sofa, and said in a flat tone, “Okay, you want to
contact the reporters and the media, right? I'll wait."
After finishing the words, Stella glanced at her wristwatch, “Hurry up. I'll be off work in two hours."
Christian studied Stella. It seemed like she was not bluffing him. He suddenly lost his courage. He coughed, slightly
straightened his back, smoothed his shirt, “I didn’t mean to call them here right away... I’m not talking with you. I
want to see Mr. Bernard."
Stella said to Samuel, "Call Armand."
Samuel nodded, and immediately dialled Armand.
When the call was answered, Samuel gave the phone to Christian.
Unlike his attitude towards Stella just now, Christian immediately changed his attitude. He nodded his head and
sucked up to him, “Mr. Bernard, Mr. Bernard, it's me, Christian of YD Advertising. I had dinner with you last night, do
you remember me?"
At the other side of the phone, Armand cursed directly, “Is there something wrong with you? Who had dinner with
you? Do I know you? I warn you, don't try to fabricate our relationship! Otherwise, I will sue you for slander!"
After that, he hung up the phone.
Christian froze with the phone in his hand. He was completely dumbfounded.
Maintaining a smile on her face, Stella looked at him quietly, “Well, do you need me to send you to his house and
talk in person with him?"
Samuel stepped forward and took the phone back.
Christian looked at them hesitantly, “Are you really from the Steward Group?"
Stella didn't reply, her expression cold.
Christian glanced at the bedroom, “Then... Then can you tell me what do you plan to deal with this matter? You
must have heard it just now. I tried my best to persuade her, but she didn’t give a shit about it and insisted on
calling the police. You’re also clear of Mr. Bernard’s characteristics. If she calls the police, Mr. Bernard will not let go
of us easily. But she doesn't accept my suggestion. Or can you try to persuade her?"
Stella asked, “How did Armand negotiate with you before?"
"Mr. Bernard disappeared after the accident, and I just managed to contact him..."
"I meant how you negotiated on the previous cooperation."
Christian coughed and hesitated in speech.
Donald slowly said beside him, “I guess Armand must require a rebate as a condition of cooperating with your
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcompany, right?"
Christian slapped his thigh as if he shared the hatred with Stella, “That’s true. Do you know how many rebates he
asked for? Seventy per cent! If it weren’t for the opportunity to cooperate with the Steward Group, who would
agree to this immoral transaction?"
Stella said, “As far as I know, your company is only established not long ago."
"Yes. We wanted to cooperate with the Steward Group to expand its publicity."
"How dare a newly-establish company do such a loss-making business? It seems that the capital chain behind your
company is quite strong."
Christian smiled awkwardly, “Our boss is a foreigner. He has been doing some small businesses abroad and earned
some money these years. Now he wants to expand the domestic market. As long as we can open up the domestic
market, we don’t care even if we have to suffer some losses in the early stage. He has money after all."
"Where is your boss? It’s such big trouble. Don’t he plan to show up?"
"Our boss is abroad and hasn't come back. Moreover, I can handle such a trivial problem, so it’s unnecessary to
disturb him."
Stella's expression became colder, “Trivial problem?"
Christian hesitated, “This... is not a significant problem, right?"
Stella closed her eyes as if she didn’t intend to talk nonsense with him anymore, “Since now your company wants to
expand the domestic market as soon as possible, and you don’t want this matter to have any impact on you, so you
are willing to pay any price to settle it, right?"
"As long as it is within the range we can bear, it can be considered."
"Okay, give me all the details about the negotiation on the cooperation between you and Armand, and I will take
care of the rest affairs."
Christian said, “But..."
Stella stood up and said, "If you’re unwilling to do so, I'll just leave it alone. You can take care of it by yourself."
Christian hurriedly said, “Oh no, hold on. Young people always have a bad temper. I promise you."
