Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 525

Chapter 525

Elliot, Chad and Ben never left since they arrived that morning.

They had spent their time touring Tate Industries.

At least, that was their excuse. Their true motive was to stay for lunch.

“Wanda Tate is a master of marketing,” Ben said with his phone in his hand. “She hit a brick wall running into us though.”

“Even so, their sales aren’t bad,” Chad said. “There is still huge potential in the lower-income market.”

“They’re selling their products for cheap, after all! They’re losing money to earn a good reputation. The more they sell, the more money they lose… Their original plan was to quickly take over the market and run Tate Industries out of business, then monopolize the market and raise their prices,” Ben said. “Now, they’ve realized that Tate Industries isn’t as easy to bring down as they’d thought. Which is why they’re coming up with other ideas.”

“Are they cutting down costs? Or are they planning on conquering the lower and middle income markets while continuing to make big promises to their investors, then get publicly listed?” Chad chimed in.

“All of that. They still have plenty of investors who believe in them.” Ben laughed, then said,” Wanda Tate really does have a knack for business.”

Avery was ordering dishes with the menu in her hands, but her ears were closely listening to their conversation.

Elliot noticed her absentmindedness, then leaned in and whispered in her ear, “You don’t need to be afraid of Wanda. She can’t touch you.”

Avery’s cheeks flushed.

“I’m not afraid of her. I’m trying to decide between getting orange juice or watermelonja juice.”

“Get one of each, then.”

“Okay…”

Avery finished ordering, then handed the menu over to Elliot.

“You’re over three months pregnant now, Avery. How are you feeling?” Ben asked, shifting the subject to her.

“Apart from the occasional nausea, I don’t feel any differently.”

This pregnancy was more relaxed than her last.

“That’s good. Do you only have a day-time nanny at home right now?” Ben asked. “Shouldn’t you hire a live-in nanny later on in your pregnancy? Mike is a man, after all. It wouldn’t be too convenient for him to help out if anything happens to you…”

Elliot glanced at Avery from the corner of his eye. She responded calmly, “I’m still a long way from the late stages of my pregnancy. I’ll think about it later on.”

“Hahaha! I don’t know why you’re the one who’s pregnant, but I’m getting nervous. It’s as if the baby you’re carrying is mine…” Ben teased with a chuckle.

“You’ll scare the boss if you say that, Ben. He doesn’t want to have a baby with you!” Chad said.
