A Game Changer
“I’ll help you take back the White Group, fair and square.”
The White Group was powerful, but in the eyes of Jonathan and Jordy, to take it down was a pushover.
It would be a totally one-sided battle.
Jonathan wasn’t just saying it. He was confident in his ability to help Gloria. He might even do a better
job than her.
But that wasn’t what Gloria wanted.
She wanted to work her way through without his help. She owed him a million favors already.
How could she return all the favors?
What if it occurred to Jordy’s father and grandmother that she was that close to Jonathan?
Gloria sighed, “Mr. Brown, I know you mean well, but I don’t want to bother you with my problems. I
owe you a million favors already.”
Jonathan smiled, “You don’t have to return the favors.”
Gloria smiled, “Why don’t you read the proposal first, Mr. Brown?”
Jonathan narrowed his eyes. “An investment of a few hundred billion dollars. The White Group is
greedy for profit.”
Gloria sighed, “If I didn’t join the company, there would be no such an unfair deal.”
Jonathan couldn’t help chuckling and was in no hurry to respond.
Gloria continued with a smile, “If you’d like to cooperate with us, I’ll follow up on this project. I can
guarantee that you’ll get a profit as it’s written into the proposal. You pay, and we’ll do our job.”
Jonathan stared at Gloria’s delicate, calm face. She looked as if she didn’t care whether he agreed or
not.
But she was out to dine with him.
Jonathan could tell that she was reckless. She was in talks on a partnership with him, but she didn’t
care whether the talks would break down. She seemed really bolder.
Jonathan’s lips arched with a trace of a smile. “I need time to think about it.”
Gloria nodded understandingly, “Okay, it’s such a large investment after all. If you agree
immediately, I’ll think there is something wrong with you. If you think this proposal is feasible, I’ll follow
up on the specific projects after we sign the contract.”
Jonathan laughed, “I’m afraid I can’t get a better end of the deal.
“Especially when I’m facing a lawyer like you, Gloria.”
Gloria raised her eyebrows. “When I hit a dead-end, you gave me the opportunity to fight and make a
comeback. I’ll always remember all your kindness to me. I’ll stick to my principles and never put you in
a tough spot.”
Jonathan sighed heavily.
Gloria created clear boundaries, as if neither of them could take advantage of each other.
Gloria was a woman with a brain and reasonable ability. Even if Jonathan asked his subordinates to
handle this fully funded project with her revised proposal, it would not work at all.
Jonathan halted his thoughts and looked at Gloria with a smile. “Wanna see a movie?”
She stared at him.
She didn’t respond directly but spoke softly, “Mr. Brown, why did you reach out to me a couple of
times?”
“You think I joked about my feelings for you on Twitter?” Jonathan squinted at her menacingly.
Gloria’s eyelashes fluttered. She didn’t say anything, but her eyes showed him how she was feeling.
