Sure enough, Ryan asked, "What kind of dinner is it?" "Martin's hosting it. Also, he's Nelson's son. Martin wants to discuss sproject matters, so I thought it would be necessary to prepare for it," I spoke casually but startled Adrian and Ryan.
Ryan insisted, "I'll cwith you. You can't deal with them alone. I'm the company's general manager and have the right to participate in negotiations. You need me, especially since we're in a foreign place." Adrian agreed, "He's right, Ms. Chloe. We don't know how the people here, and safety is our priority." I sneered and dismissed their concerns, "You're overthinking it. Just because they're crafty doesn't mean I fear them. I think they want to negotiate the terms with me, so I'll talk to them. You're giving them too much credit. However, I still need to make preparations." Ryan glared at me, saying, "You're not allowed to be willful in this situation. We aren't in Foswood. While we might feel reassured back home, you must ensure your safety here. Tell them I'm coming with you. We won't talk if they refuse." His tone was firm, and his expression was severe. I understood he was genuinely concerned about me. After all, there had been frequent accidents involving us. However, I felt Martin and the others wouldn't harmbecause we were in Bourdamun. No one would dare do something extron their own turf.
I said, "You don't understand. Martin wants to discuss a substantial topic with me. He might avoid sharing details if you come." Ryan stared atin frustration. "You're right, I don't understand!" "Ryan, you might not understand, but Adrian does. This project is a rare opportunity for them, so they won't just let it go. Martin's eager to get involved, and I'm curious about his intentions." I looked at Adrian and earnestly continued, "It's an excellent opportunity to obtain strong evidence against them. I can't miss this chance, and they won't back off, either.
They want to control the project and then have the authority to Issign it. They want to give it tome nost, among others. That's why hey won't harm me," I turned to Ryan and asked, "Do you know the earliest source of information about his project?" ¡wHe shrugged, and I continued, "It cfrom their people, and I managed to secure it. Also, they neglected precautions againstbecause I'm a woman. They don't expectto dig into their plans." "Rest assured, Ryan. I must secure this project and proceed without lworries. I don't want to win the project and then be vulnerable. There's no turning back now. They just want to threatena little, but I doubt they dare hurt me." I analyzed the situation for Ryan and Adrian, "These people know what they can and cannot do. Otherwise, they wouldn't have negotiated Mefore securing the p and his people the Be they hete all the cards, but I've intercepted them. "Also, one of their guys has dealt with us before. It's that dirtbag named Jeremiah. He cto my room to inviteto dinner just now. Adrian, did you know Martin is Nelson's son?" "Oh?" Ryan and Adrian fell silent for a while.
Finally, Adrian looked up and suggested, "How about this? We can all go wherever you plan to meet, but Ryan and I will sit at a separate table. Then, we'll be around if anything happens.
"That's better than sitting here and worrying about you, right? Ryan and I need to have dinner anyway."
