Sebastian, who had been conducting the conference, found out his assistant started losing himself in a
train of thought.
Thus, he glared at his assistant in the eyes and asked, “What are you doing?”
Luke, who was drenched in sweat, finally returned to his senses and answered, “Mr. Hayes, Mrs.
Hayes is currently on her way to meet the person in charge of Wells International.”
Irked by the incident in the morning, Sebastian was harsh with his remarks. “Is that any of my business
when it’s part of her job?”
Luke gulped and knew nothing he had in mind could convince his infuriated supervisor. In the end, he
looked out the window and announced, “According to the forecast, there’s a heavy snowstorm in
Horington today!”
Sebastian’s eyes widened in disbelief when he heard Luke.
On the other end, Sasha was in deep trouble since she had lost control over the vehicle immediately
after the car fell off the guardrail in front of her.
Bam!
As a result, she bumped into the guardrail and almost passed out due to the heavy blow on her chest.
Fortunately, she wasn’t involved in another accident since there were merely a few drivers on the
highway due to the terrible weather.
It took her a long time to pull herself together. Seconds after she returned to her senses, she started
surveying her surroundings.
Things were pretty tough on her end since her belongings, including her phone, were all over the place
in the car.
She knew there was no way she could make it to Horington in time. Afraid she would mess things up
again, she thought of getting in touch with the person in charge to inform him of her situation.
Once she gathered her thoughts, she withstand the racking sensation she felt and leaned over to pick
up her phone.
“Hello, is this Mr. Will?”
Confused by the call, the person in charge of Wells International asked in return, “Yes. May I know
who’s on the line?”
Thrilled, Sasha introduced herself, “I’m so sorry for interrupting you, Mr. Will! I’m the representative of
Hayes Corporation!”
“Well, as long as you make it to my office within another half an hour, I’ll grant you an audience with me
to pitch the proposal again.”
The person in charge of Wells International was from Moranta. When he heard Sasha, he answered in
a courteous manner and assured her he would honor his promise.
Half an hour? Are you kidding me? There’s no way I’m going to make it in time when I’m this close to
losing my freaking life!
“Mr. Will, allow me to express my utmost apology since I don’t think I’m going to make it in time.”
“What?”
The foreigner started throwing a tantrum and yelled, “Are you trying to waste my time or what? I have
been pretty merciful to spare you two hours, but you’re telling me you can’t make it in time? If that’s the
case, forget about the proposal!”
He was about to hang up the call immediately after he made himself clear it was over.
The anxious Sasha yelled at him in return, “No, Mr. Will! We wish to establish a long-term working
relationship with you and your company, but I can’t make it since I’m caught in the middle of
something.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I’m involved in a minor accident due to the bad weather. I’ll show you a photo if you’re having doubts.”
In an attempt to convince the foreigner, Sasha snapped the photo of her car bumping into the guardrail.
She did a great job leaving herself out of the photo since it wouldn’t be wise for her to play to the man’s
emotions.
As a qualified negotiator, she needed to share the details of her situation with the other party to gain
their trust.
Indeed, the foreigner stopped picking on her and announced, “Well, I’ll just give you another hour if
that’s the case.”
“Thank you so much, Mr. Will! I’ll definitely make it there in time! Also, allow me to introduce myself! My
name is Nancy!”
“Nancy?”
The person on the other end asked in disbelief and thought he had heard of the name during his time
abroad.
“Yes, I used to work for Andy! In fact, I was the one behind a lot of the investment proposals! I had also
done a few startups a huge favor and contributed to their current success! I can assure you it’s a
beneficial deal for both parties!”
Sasha introduced herself and her past achievements to convince the doubtful man since she knew it
would take more than a mere accident to convince him.
Hence, she needed to persuade him it was worthy of his time to meet her. Otherwise, he might lose his
patience if she were to be late again.
Her identity and past achievements happened to be the most persuasive things she could leverage on.
Once she had everything sorted out, she finally returned to her senses and started checking on the
condition of the car.
She was grateful the Cayenne turned out to be sturdier than she had thought. In spite of the impactful
blow, she could still start the car without any trouble.
Thus, she made up her mind to carry on with her journey and thought it wasn’t such a bad day after all.
