Chapter 996 Bonnie raised her delicate eyebrows gently.
"What term will it be?" Ivor stared at her profoundly. He remained quiet for a moment before saying, "I want to study the chip for a while after you guys retrieve it." Her frown deepened in response. Before she could say anything, she heard Collin speak.
"Why should we let you study it? Falcon single-handedly caused you the loss of your money. We had no part in it. The agreement is meant to keep both the Nidhoggs and the Dark Nights safe from any foul play. It isn't an opportunity for you to bargain with us." In fact, he spoke her mind.

'I have to admit that I'm taking advantage of the situation. However, we needed one of the chip's functionalities to develop another project.
'This is such a wonderful opportunity, too. I'm not going to let it passby. Furthermore, I'm just borrowing the chip for a little. It's not going to cause much damage to them, either.' "Judging by your response, I think you're not agreeing to my term. If that's the case, we'll be competing with each other to see who manages to retrieve both the chip and the money. Simply said, finders keepers." Collin had a gut feeling that Ivor was forcing them to agree to his terms. So, his face grew grim. He was about to say something, but he saw Bonnie shaking her head at him.
Realizing that she didn't want him to say anything further, he stepped down and stopped himself.
Then, she looked at Ivor again with inquisitive eyes.
"I don't think you'll benefit from wearing out your entire organization from the competition. Are you sure you want to do this?" He leaned back on the couch calmly and spoke in a nonchalant tone. "The ball is in your court. I'm not the one who's doing this. You forced my hand." She was so mad that she almost laughed.
'He has got to be the only one who could've demonstrated shamelessness in such a refreshing way. With that said, I have to think about if I really want to agree to his terms.' "I guess I can see my way to lend my chip for you to study it. However, you can only have it for a couple of weeks. You'll have to return it tothe moment the clock runs out. This is the last concession I'll make. If you don't find it agreeable, then I guess we're competing!" 'We painstakingly developed the chip. I wouldn't have agreed to lend it out unless there was no other choice!' Collin heard her response and couldn't resist going over to her side and whispering, "He's obviously a scumbag, chief. Why are you agreeing to his term? Aren't we going to suffer terribly if he turns back on the agreement?" "You're forgetting something. The Dark Knight is evenly matched with us. If they go all out on us, then we'll lose more than just a chip. Furthermore, once we signed an agreement, then this matter will concern the major international organizations. He's not going to go back on his word! "More to the point, I'm not someone he could afford to take lightly. If he dares break his promise, I'll hunt him to the ends of the earth and crack his skull open!" He was amused by her response.
"Hahaha! You're right. I know just how tough you are, chief. I don't doubt it when you said you're going to crack his skull open." Her lips curled into a grin too when she saw him laughing.

Ivor felt a little peculiar when he saw how the both of them were chatting and laughing. He cleared his fArbat, e trying to make her notice him.

She heard him and stopped grinning. Then, she looked at him. "Do youn agree with what said earlier? I'll ask my men to draft the agreement if you have nothing to add." The peculiar feeling he had had a second ago disappeared when he noticed her looking at him again.
"Two weeks, it is. I'm fine with that."
Collin couldn't help but grumble, "Figures. We've agreed to lend the chip to you so you can study it. Why wouldn't you agree to the two-week n't term? You would've been taking a huge advantage of you if you did!" Floyd heard what he said and couldn't help but retort, "Who are you accusing of taking a huge advantage? Mind your tongue!" Not willing to back down, Collin met his gaze and asked, "What's the matter? Did I say anything wrong?" "Why, you..." X
