Chapter 314 Do You Really Not Want to Think About It?
Philip didn’t rush to say anything. In fact, he looked at Elisa thoughtfully.
Elisa’s expression was particularly at ease. She didn’t show too much emotion.
As expected, he did add something to the food.
But he was the only other person in the room, so Elisa wasn’t afraid.
Philip smiled. “That makes sense, Ms. Benett. But you know that many things aren’t just done for
nothing. Seeing that you’ve been out in the world until now, I’m sure you know the ways of the world
well, don’t you?”
As he was speaking, he lifted his hand.
Seeing that he was about to touch her hand, Elisa avoided it with ease, as though she didn’t care that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthis hand was frozen in mid-air.
The sliver of a smile in the corner of Philip’s mouth was a little stiff. But in the next moment, he
resumed his composure. He looked at Elisa and smiled. “The world is like this nowadays, Ms. Benett.
You should know what I want and what you need to give. I heard rumors that you’re being trained
properly since you’ve returned to the company. You’re assigned with such heavy responsibility. If you
can’t even close a deal with me, how will you find your footing in Benett Corporation?”
Elisa narrowed her eyes. Philip must be used to doing such things, so he had such a precise grasp of
her situation when he spoke.
Seeing that Elisa wasn’t saying anything, Philip said cheerfully, “Look, if I sign this contract, you won’t
be at a loss, Ms. Benett. You were married once. Spending one night with me won’t affect you much.
Furthermore, you’ll be able to get a huge commission through me, won’t you? If we have a further
connection this time, I’m sure I can help you with your future projects.”
Elisa suddenly burst out laughing. “Since I’m here, I’ve already inquired about your history, Mr.
Whitford. You’re good at capturing the hearts of others and offering benefits to the other party. But after
the deed is done, it appears like you haven’t fulfilled any promises at all, have you?”
Philip’s brows furrowed immediately. He put his utensils down and said irritably, “It seems like you don’t
plan on closing this deal today, do you, Ms. Benett? If that’s the case, I don’t think we can have a
further connection. You may leave.”
Elisa didn’t take offense to anything Philip was saying. With a half-smile, she said, “Your company is in
a dilemma right now. I’m sure you’ve been very worried about this, haven’t you, Mr. Benett?”
Philip looked at her with slight displeasure. “What do you mean by that? Are you mocking my company
for being incompetent?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough his company wasn’t like Benett Corporation, it was still in the global top hundred. Many
people were envious of him.
But Elisa was ridiculing him now?
Elisa smiled and said smoothly, “Although this partnership only has hundreds of millions in profit, do
you believe me when I say that it can make your company enter the top ten or better?”
Philip’s expression suddenly darkened. He looked at Elisa. At that moment, his gaze wasn’t as lustful
as before.
“What in the world are you trying to say?”
Elisa wasn’t in a rush to tell him about it immediately. She teased him with it as she smiled,
“Sometimes, you can’t just look at the profits before your eyes, Mr. Whitford. Of course, the proposal in
my hands is beneficial to Benett Corporation, but it’s nothing compared to you. Do you really not want
to think about it?”
Robert was stunned by what she said. He felt that something wasn’t right, but… now he was really
curious about Elisa’s proposal.
