Chapter 21 Negotiate with Marlon Group
Chapter 21 Negotiate with Marlon Group
I only saw Kieran took a step to avoid me, standing far away from me. I also saw that he watched me
fall with his red eyes. Then, I had a blackout and didn't know anything.
When I opened my eyes, I saw the gray and black ceiling and simple chandelier. I was still dizzy and
covered my head while getting up, only to find myself lying on the cold marble floor.
In front of me, Kieran was sitting on a soft chair, looking at me coldly. There were huge French windows
behind him. The midday sunlight burst through the windows, forming a backlight that bathed Kieran. He
was like an ancient vampire, existing in the sunlight.
"Mr. Charles!" I stood up excitedly and tried to explain.
"Stop!" Kieran suddenly ordered in a cold voice.
I had to stop and look at him. Kieran glanced at me and flicked his fingertips, "You're so dirty. Who
allowed you to get so close to me!"
I looked at the distance between me and Kieran and hurriedly took a few steps back. I absolutely could
not anger Kieran now. Otherwise, the contract would be canceled.
"Mr. Charles, I'm sorry!" I apologized with the most sincere attitude, "About the morning's appointment,
I really did not mean to stand you up. I had something urgent. So, I was delayed!"
Kieran looked at me coldly, "What does it have to do with to me?"
Kieran's insensitive look made me speechless. But I couldn't give up, "Mr. Charles, I know it's my fault.
I promise I'll never do it again. Please don't cancel the contract, please!"
I made the last attempt. Since Kieran had brought me back, it meant there was still a slim chance.
Kieran just stared at me coldly without saying anything. I felt nervous under his pressure. But I must
hold on, "Mr. Charles, I promise that from now on, you will absolutely come first whatever happens. I Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
will do anything you order without complaint!"
There was a cold silence in the office. I felt so nervous that I almost was out of breath. Kieran slowly
spoke, "The contract will be canceled unless you can do one thing!"
"No problem. I'm willing to do anything!" I hastily agreed.
Kieran smiled contemptuously, "Do it first!"
I nodded and asked carefully, "What is it?"
I didn't know if it was my illusion. I seemed to see a flicker of playfulness in Kieran's eyes as he said, "I
want you to buy CH under the name of Rich. I will give you a week to do it!"
Hearing this, I did not fully understand. Kieran should have told my confusion and faintly explained,
"Rich is a luxury clothing brand under Universal Group. CH is a luxury jewelry brand. I want you to buy
CH and merge the two brands!"
I understood what Kieran meant. But I had never been exposed to the business since I was little, let
alone buying such a huge luxury brand. However, I had no choice but to promise, "I will buy CH!"
Kieran smiled, his blood-red eyes glittered with light, looking evil and arrogant, "Good luck!"
"What should I do?" in fact, I had no confidence at all. But I didn't have any choice.
"I appoint you as the head of Rich. You go and talk to them. The price is five hundred million. I won't
even give you one more penny!"
"Five hundred million!" Kieran's words shocked me and I almost bit my tongue. I even had never gotten
fifty thousand since I was a child. Now, Kieran asked me to buy the brand for five hundred million.
"If you cannot, I will let others do it!"
"I absolutely can do it!" I hurriedly said.
Kieran coolly looked at me. His glance made me feel that he was tricking me. At this moment, I felt that
I was so small. Kieran told me to come to Universal Group to work on time tomorrow and then let me
leave.
I went back to the hospital after leaving Universal Group. I looked after the sleeping Davidson and
asked Billie to go back first. I touched Davidson pale little face and felt upset and uncomfortable.
Anyway, I did not need to worry about Davidson's medical expenses for the time being. But I was not
confident in buying CH at all.
While Davidson was asleep, I searched the relevant information and found that CH was a luxury brand
under Marlon Group. I instantly thought of Marlon.
I took the phone and thought of the words that Kaleb and Alicia had said in the recording. I felt hurt.
Scene of past events reappeared in my mind. Marlon had always protected Alicia and personally
pushed me to that most vicious and disgusting position.
I couldn't help but grip the phone. This damn man was so distrustful of me and so cruel to me, why
should I tell him this? I should just let him be cheated by Alicia.
I shook my head and stopped thinking about them. These were not what I should think about now. The
priority was to find a way to successfully buy CH. After all, Kieran would test me with this project, which
meant that it would be no easy task.
I checked the information all night. Until Billie came to help me look after Davidson, I packed up and
rushed to work. This time, I absolutely did not dare to be late.
"Ms. Cornell, you look very bad!" when I was about to go out, Billie took my hand, "You must take care
of yourself!"
I was moved and nodded with a smile.
But when I arrived at Universal Group early and stood in the huge lobby, I was confused while looking
at all dressed and fashionable men and women working seriously.
"Rachael, come on! Only success, no failure!" I took a deep breath and said to myself.
"No one can only succeed and not fail at all in this world!" suddenly, a faint male voice came from
behind me. I turned around and saw Kieran standing behind me.
I subconsciously walked over.
"Stand still and keep five meters radius from me!" Kieran stopped me.
I then realized that Kieran's bodyguards were also all standing five meters away behind him. The
people coming and going in the lobby were only greeting from afar when they saw Kieran, although
they were all respectful.
I was silent.
I could not help but take a few steps back. Kieran walked straight past me, "I have given notice of
appointment. Go to Rich to work. After a week, if you can't succeed, just leave!" with that, Kieran
walked to the exclusive elevator without looking back.
"Mr. Charles is so handsome!"
"I almost faint!" once Kieran left, the originally quiet lobby instantly hummed. The women who just
looked serious were all crazy and almost wanted to directly pounce on Kieran.
Words failed me.
I didn't have too much time to think about this and hurried to Rich. Then, I realized that almost every
brand here occupied a small area or a building.
Rich was in the middle of the building. When I finally found the place, looking at the situation inside, I
froze.
