In Maxton’s forty years of existence, he had never once experienced eating a meal awkwardly.
However, Katherine, who caused Maxton to feel this way, held no shame at all.She was even quite
satisfied with her meal.
Maxton had observed this when he peeked a glance at Katherine, his expression and anger growing
even worse.
‘She's really beautiful, but why does she have such nasty insolence?’ Maxton thought in a pity.
Katherine took a sip of wine before looking at the two people who had already finished eating.
"The food is not bad, Mr.Maxton."
The corners of Maxton’s mouth twitched, but he still endured it.
"Are you full, Miss Wilson?"
"I'm full, thank you" Katherine replied curtly.
"I'm sorry.It took me long to finish eating. Shall we get down to business?" she added.
Katherine took the folder from Celine and handed it over to Maxton.
"Mr.Maxton, I have already assessed and analyzed the current situation of Lux International.In the past
few years, there has been an endless stream of children's toy stores, and the competition in this
industry has become greater and global.However, the company's products lack innovation and
research for improvements.It is also the reason why your company's sales have declined in the past
two years.As far as we know, the reason why Lux International decreased in sales last year was that
there was a child's interesting toy brand in the country that had successfully been listed.This brand is
called Tommy's Toys.I think you should understand the situation, Mr.Maxton.All of Tommy's toys are
self-invented and developed.Because of their authenticity, Tommy's toys’ competitiveness in this
market is much higher than yours"
Katherine explained.
"Of course, your company has been a staple brand for eight years.It has a certain popularity and
impact in the children’s toy market.We have come to an amount to negotiate with you in accordance
with this."
Once Katherine was finished, she raised her index finger, followed by another two.
"Three billion?"
Maxton was surprised with the price.
Maxton clearly did not expect that Future Technology would actually allocate billions of money for his
deteriorating company.
Katherine's words were painful to hear, but Maxton had to admit that Lux International was in a
grievous state.
A few years ago, when the domestic children's toy industry was fluctuating, Lux International had the
total chance to monopolize the market for over two years.
Almost all the children's toys on the market were sold by Lux International.
However, as more and more businesses came into the market these past few years, Lux International
could no longer afford to waste money.
When Lux International was first established, Maxton invested a lot of money into it from Chesdale
Corp.
Regardless of whether Charles knew it or not, once he interfered, Maxton and Logan's work over the
years would be wasted in vain if they didn't sell Lux International now.
When Celine realized Katherine's bid, she was also stunned.
The amount she offered was too high for a declining company.
"Mr.Maxton, you are mistaken.I mean 1.3 billion dollars."
Katherine's voice immediately stopped everyone from glorifying the 3 billion dollars.
"Miss Wilson! What do you take me for, a beggar?! 1.3 billion dollars?! That's too little!"
Maxton finally snapped.
"A beggar can live with just 13 dollars.Mr.Maxton, you think so highly of yourself"
Katherine commented.
Maxton was so angry that his face and neck turned red.
His lowest price was 1.8 billion, and his ideal price was 2.5 billion.
It was complete bullshit! However, Katherine offered not even half of his price! If this was not a price for
a beggar, then what was it? Maxton flew into a fit of rage from how humiliated he felt.
He got up and was about to leave.
Katherine, however, just sat still and did not even bother to stop and persuade him to stay.
She poured herself a glass of brandy and took a sip.
Not bad.
The liquor flamed her throat.
"Mr.Maxton, you have to think about it clearly.We, Future Technology, are willing to wait for your
decision.However, I am afraid that Lux International might not be able to wait for this matter.Your
company is rapidly failing as we speak, and I'm sorry if we might not offer you the same price after
some time; Katherine said firmly, watching Maxton, who was now headed for the door.
"Furthermore, the matter of you meeting us today might have already reached Mr.Charles" Katherine
added.
Maxton, who had just walked out of the door, stopped in his tracks.
Weston, who was silently following him, whispered anxiously, "Mr.Maxton, the company's current debt
is snowballing every second.Miss Wilson is right.If this drags on for a few more days, three hundred
million dollars might become four hundred.In the end, I'm afraid you will be the one to shoulder this
loss!"
Maxton was about to explode in anger.
It was hard for him to contain the disdain he felt from what he and Katherine discussed, "Didn't you
hear the price she offered?"
He hissed.
