NovelEnglishElisa sounded very serious. After attempting to persuade Elisa for a while, James realized she had a point, so he stopped insisting and nodded. “Alright then, get busy with your agendas first.” Elisa smiled and did not elaborate further, but she seemed to be at ease. On the other hand, Rachel sat at the side and was flustered as she listened to their conversation. Am | too naive? Why can both of them always predict the situation while all | can do is to listen at the side like a fool? After quite a while, Rachel finally figured out what Elisa and James were talking about. As the two continued planning, she inhaled deeply and blurted, “Wait a minute, so you guys still plan to collaborate with Wickam Group? And you're going to agree to Gareth’s conditions?” Elisa's eyes fluttered as she remained silent while James nodded. “Yeah. Currently, our foundation is not strong enough, so we can't break away from Wickam Group. Meanwhile, Wickam Group is keen on Elisa's proposal. This is the only way to save our company temporarily.” “But... It seems like we're at a disadvantage. We didn’t intend to partner with Gareth previously.” James smiled. “Not exactly. Norman's reputation in the company is unfavorable, to begin with, but due to his identity and the shares he holds, we couldn't pick on him much. The incident this time is his downfall, and his status is severely affected. During the meeting today, only one of his allies spoke up for him. You can imagine how this would facilitate Elisa's comeback in the future.” Rachel's eyes lit up at once. “Does this mean that Elisa will be able to establish her power soon?!” She squealed in excitement.
“Yeah.” James beamed from ear to ear. He was very satisfied with the outcome of the incident.
Elisa looked at James apologetically and mumbled, “Mr. Markee, this will cause you to lose out on many benefits...” James smiled and answered, “Not at all. If Norman continues leading the company, the company will only deteriorate more.
Elisa, you inherited your father’s traits, and you're even more capable than your father, so | believe our losses can be recovered after you become the leader of the company.” Her eyes were filled with complicated emotions as she nodded solemnly. “I promise to lead the company to success in the future.” James smiled in gratification. “I trust you. All of us trust you.” Elisa smiled. It felt great to be trusted, but at the same time, the responsibilities were on her shoulders.
“Elisa, are you afraid?” Rachel stared at her concernedly.
Elisa smiled. “Nope. | won't back out. I'll continue on this path step by step.” “But... you'll have to collaborate with Gareth next.” Elisa smiled with disdain flashing through her eyes. “If | don't collaborate with him, he will terminate the partnership with Benett Corporation.” James nodded with a smile. “Yeah. After collaborating with Wickam Group for one more year, we can completely cut ties with them. | believe Wickam Group will agree to partner with us for a year, too, for the sake of your proposal.” Rachel was worried but still nodded in agreement.
After hanging around for a while, James stood up and said, “It's getting late now. | shall excuse myself first.” “Please wait.” mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLII0fiflO& 1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWL1i10fif10&1 mmMwWLIiI0fiflO&1
