Chapter 166
When Gary met Neil’s cold gaze, he immediately said, “No… Due to the recent
reorganization, it looks like Anderson Corporation is leaning toward MY Corporation. If you
can help us, it would be a lot faster for us to get on the right track.”
Neil contemplated for a while before he sternly said, “Alright, I’ll settle this. Get back to
work.”
After the employeesChapter 165
Silvia smiled. “Freshen up and get some rest. I have work in the morning.”
“I’m not working for now. Can I stay here with you in the meantime? Don’t worry. I’ll pay
rent!”
“We’re so close. There’s no need for rent.‘
“Thank you very much.”
Isla had made breakfast by the time Silvia went downstairs the next morning.
“You don’t have to wake up early and make breakfast. I can simply grab something on the
way to work.”
Isla passed her a bun and said, “No way. I can’t just leech off of you. From now on, I’ll
make you breakfast and dinner!”
“There’s really no need for that.”
Isla immediately added, “I’ve made up my mind. If you won’t let me pay rent, you have to
let me prepare your meals. Since I have to prepare my own meals, it’s no big deal for me
to prepare yours as well.”
Silvia had no choice but to agree. “Alright. But you can stop anytime if you’re tired.”
“Alright! Hurry up and have your breakfast before you leave for work.”
“Sure.”
Silvia headed to MY Corporation after that.
The company was currently bidding on a big project. If they managed to secure this
project, MY Corporation would experience wonderful growth in the coming year.
Dulcie approached Silvia with some files in her hands when she reached the office.
“Miss Pond, Perficient is bidding on this project too. They’ve already connected with
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnderson Corporation.”
Silvia frowned when she heard this. Perficient was a fashion arm under Remus
Corporation, which focused on luxury goods. This project was incredibly important for MY
Corporation, but it was dispensable to Perficient.
However, since Neil and Ryan were friends, MY Corporation might not stand a chance if
Perficient really wanted the project.
“Try to find out why Perficient is suddenly interested in this project.”
Was Neil trying to settle the score because she rejected his acquisition request?
She immediately denied the possibility. She knew him, and he would not do that to MY
Corporation.
After Dulcie left, Silvia hesitated for a while before she called her secretary.
“Make an appointment with the CEO of Anderson Corporation.”
Dulcie had hired two secretaries for Silvia–Joe Miller and Eva White. Both of them had
three working experiences, so it was easy for them to adapt.
years of
Eva was in charge of administrative work while Joe was involved in business
appointments. Silvia would even bring him along.
Soon after, Joe came over to give her an update.
“Miss Pond, Mr. Anderson is free after 8 p.m. tomorrow.”
She nodded. “Alright. Please make a dinner reservation with Mr. Anderson.”
Meanwhile, Curtis was giving Neil an update on Perficient in his office. He furrowed his
eyebrows as he said, “Perficient’s business has been going downhill in the past few years.
In addition, the management is chaotic. It’s basically a mess… If you pass it to Miss Pond,
it’ll probably go bankrupt in six months.”
Neil remained silent for a while before he sternly said, “Set up a meeting with Perficient’s
management!”
“Alright, Mr. Remus.‘
That morning, Neil fired more than half of the management team. The remaining members
were extremely afraid that he would call them out.
After that, he restructured the management team and their respective job roles. “If
Perficient remains the same after half a month, you should hand in your resignation!” he
said coldly.
The newly appointed general manager, Gary Whitman, carefully said, “Mr. Remus, we’ve
been bidding on a project recently. It’s a collaboration with one of the fabric manufacturing
companies under Anderson Corporation. If we manage to sign the deal, Perficient will save
a few billion dollars. But we’re a little late to the game, and MY Corporation might win the
bid instead.”
“Are you asking me to negotiate this deal for you?” Neil asked in dissatisfaction.
of Perficient left, he gave Ryan a call.
“Hello, Neil. Is there something you want to talk about?”
“Yes. Is one of the companies under Anderson Corporation collaborating with MY
Corporation?”
Ryan was surprised to hear Neil ask about such a trivial matter. “I’ll ask my secretary,” he
replied.
Soon, Ryan received the information he needed.
“MY Corporation does intend to collaborate with us. If nothing goes wrong, we’ll sign the
contract in a few days. Why do you ask?”
“Can you award the project to Perficient instead?”
Ryan was taken aback, and he asked, “How will it benefit us?”
“Anderson Corporation will be able to develop the land in East City as well.”
He was truly shocked, and he started to take the conversation more seriously.
“Why are you suddenly concerned about a small company under Remus Corporation?”
Neil was expressionless. “I plan to separate Perficient from Remus Corporation.”
“Why?”
“Ada wants to practice her management skills in a company.”
Ryan frowned the moment he heard this. “Neil, don’t you think this is really unfair to
Silvia? You shouldn’t forget that she’s the one who stayed by your side during those tough
times. She supported you for three years but got nothing. Instead, you hang on Ada’s
every word.”
Neil did not respond for a while. When he finally spoke, he sounded colder. “That’s none of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyour business. Just tell me if you agree with the request.”
“There’s no reason why I’d disagree.”
“It’s a deal, then.”
After the call ended, Ryan did not look happy.
Not knowing what was on his mind, his secretary asked in a low voice, “Mr. Anderson, do I
need to
cancel the dinner appointment with MY Corporation’s president?”
“Yes. After that, prepare a contract for Perficient.”
“Noted.”
His secretary did not ask any further questions. He turned around and gave MY
Corporation a call.
Ryan picked up a document, but he could no longer focus on reading. He was feeling
inexplicably
irritated.
Silvia would surely be upset once she found out.
He took a deep breath and tried not to think about it.
Joe received the call and immediately informed Silvia about it.
“Miss Pond, do we need to reschedule with Mr. Anderson?”
She shook her head. “No. He won’t see me anymore.”
Joe immediately understood that Anderson Corporation had rejected their offer.
“Regarding the collaboration…”
“Tell Miss Reed that she doesn’t have to follow up on it anymore.”
Dulcie came over as soon as she heard the news.
“Miss Pond, why are we suddenly giving up on this project?”
H
Silvia put down the document in her hand and rubbed her temple. “Perficient has a higher
chance of securing the deal. We’ll only waste our time if we continue to bid on it.”
Dulcie frowned and said, “I heard that Neil fired more than half of the management staff in
Perficient today. I think he’s snatching this project from us to stabilize that company of his!
