Mr Carroll Went Crazy After Divorce

Before the afternoon had even arrived, David received some news.

“Mr Carroll, it’s Mr Dawson from the Crescent Group. He met with Jordan yesterday afternoon and they must have talked about something because Jordan declined our company’s cooperation afterwards.”

Upon hearing that name, Sion’s expression became tense.

“Cameron Dawson?”

He was Aurora’s supposed boyfriend. But as long as they weren’t married yet, it didn’t mean anything to him.

“Yes,” David nodded. “They also arranged to meet tonight to finalize the contract.”

Sion looked thoughtful. After a while, he stood up and said, “If that’s the case, then we should go take a look too.”

Cameron was talking to someone at the Oval Clove at 7 PM.

The private rooms at the restaurant were far apart from each other and perfect for discussing confidential cooperation agreements.

In one of the VIP rooms sat Cameron confidently speaking with Jordan Wade across from him.

“Don’t worry, Mr Wade. Since I brought this up myself, I’ll give you the maximum benefits. After all, you know that our company has just entered the domestic market and we still need your support.”

Although Cameron spoke humbly in tone, there was an inexplicable sense of superiority in his words. His legs were half-crossed together in a relaxed posture.

Jordan smiled confidently. “Mr Dawson, I believe you will keep his word since Crescent is such a big company, you wouldn’t deceive me over something like this.”

Cameron smiled slightly before sitting upright and asked, “When would be convenient for you to sign the contract?”

Jordan narrowed her eyes as if contemplating something when suddenly someone pushed open their room door.

Sion walked in with both hands tucked into his pants pockets, followed by an assistant behind him.

“I never expected such a coincidence! Mr Wade and Mr Dawson, I thought I’d come to say hello.”

Sion sat down without waiting for permission or an invitation.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“You don’t mind if I join you two, do you?”

Jordan chuckled awkwardly while glancing at Cameron, who remained calm without showing any signs of panic or discomfort whatsoever.

“O-of course not.” Replied Jordan diffidently. After all, he went behind Carroll Group’s back while looking for another partner.

“Mr Carroll, please have a seat.”

Since earlier, Cameron had not even glanced at Sion and now he sneered, “Sorry, we’re not expecting company. What are you doing here, Mr Carroll?”

“I think I should be the one to ask that,” Sion replied. “If something goes wrong with Crescent Group, let me know if you need anything.”

“For Aurora, I can introduce many clients to you. Why resort to these petty tricks behind our backs?” Sion added, satirically.

He knew Cameron must be the reason why Jordan changed his mind.

“Mr Carroll, don’t be so sensitive. Besides, I don’t need your approval for whom I meet.” Said Cameron.

He smirked briefly before turning cold again. Even if it was intentional on his part, what did it matter? The business world was like a battlefield where anything went until the contract was signed; whoever won out depended on their abilities.

Cameron had disliked Sion for quite some time now since finding out that Aurora went out alone with him yesterday.

Jordan feared that he would be caught in the crossfire any moment soon. Both men were at the top of the pyramid both in terms of looks and family background. If they went all-out over this matter, there wouldn’t be much impact on them but things were quite different when it came to him.

“Mr Carroll, Mr Dawson…” Jordan looked embarrassed as he tried to mediate between them.

As Jordan tried calming them down, the tension grew stronger between Cameron and Sion instead. It seemed like any moment now sparks could fly between their gazes and burn him alive.

“I have something else going on at my company, I’m afraid we won’t be able to fully enjoy our company tonight.” Jordan made an excuse to leave.

Sion became more confident as he could tell that the cooperation between Jordan and Cameron was not completely done.

Cameron saw that his client was going to slip away like this, and looked at Sion who had stirred in. He faked a smile and said, “Take care, Mr Wade. Then we will have another appointment tomorrow.”

Jordan was quick to apprehension and he left without answering Cameron’s question.

Then, there were only four people left in the room, two men with their respective assistants. It was tense.

“Mr Dawson, you’re quite open about that.”

Sion took a sip of tea and said, “You stole a business partner in my face, any other people can not do it.”

“Maximizing the interest of the partners is all I should do.”

He meant Sion was not sincere enough to catch the cooperation.

“Well, that’s right.” Sion put down the teacup and looked at him. “If Crescent Group is going to fail one day, you’re welcome to be our marketing manager, I can also give you the maximum benefit. But the project of SeaOasis, I’m afraid you can’t take it away, Mr Dawson.”

His words were full of confidence, “Thank you, Mr Dawson, for helping me entertain Mr Wade today.”

With that said, Sion turned around and left the box without giving Cameron a look.

Cameron looked at his smugly leaving back and his face was ironic.

Early the next morning, Sion received news from David. He said the reason why Jordan would have agreed to Cameron’s invitation was that his company had a huge financial hole, and Cameron promised him a three percentage point concession on the SeaOasis project.

Sion raised his eyebrows and asked, “I can’t believe he did this.”

It was a valuable project. They had planned to build a deluxe community, targeting the market of the rich.

3% of the profits were indeed a significant amount of money.

David nodded, “It seems that he is deliberately targeting our company, that’s why he offered such a big temptation to Mr Wade.”

“Since there’s a problem with the funds, then that’s our play.” Sion was calm. “Amend the contract, raise the deposit percentage to 50%, and take it to Mr Wade.”
