Luke was silent for a long time before he spoke again. "I know what you mean, Mr. Perkins. I don't have the final say in the new project alone. I'll hold it in for now. Let's talk face-to-face when you recover."
Marcellus wasn't in a hurry to force him. He understood that there was no need to rush into things, so he gave him some time to catch his breath.
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
After hanging up the phone, Marcellus raised his head and met the girl's questioning gaze.
He was stunned for a moment and then asked in a relaxed manner, "What's wrong?"
Beryl looked at him with a complicated expression. She wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. "You..."
"You can say whatever you want. I'm injured now, so I won't do anything to you."
...
That was true.
Beryl took a deep breath and asked him in confusion, "Do you know the boss of the restaurant just now?"
"I didn't know him before."
"But you just told him that you were going to talk to him about the project."
"That's right." Marcellus nodded. He didn't hide anything and explained everything to her. "He happens to have a project that I absolutely won't allow anyone to do. I can use this opportunity to teach him a lesson."
At first, he was still thinking about how to find Luke. After all, they were all in the business world, so it was not easy for him to make it too obvious. Now, he didn't need to worry about it.
However, this was also something that Beryl could not understand. In her opinion, he was already very uncomfortable with such a serious injury, but he still had to use his injury to bargain with others.
How indifferent did he have to be to do this? Didn't he feel wronged?
