Chapter 373

“Take a seat!” Mason pulled his hand back and gestured to the seats in front.After sitting down on the cushiony sofa, Janet said in a serious tone, “Ten billion for that base. Didn’t you agree to that? What else is there to discuss?”He chuckled. His demeanor and voice were both cold and menacing. “Miss J’Adore, you’re already planning to expand in Sandfort City.” He raised an eyebrow. “I’m thinking of using another ten billion to buy a base in Markovia!”They were both thinking of expanding their power in the other’s territory.Normally, she would never agree to something like that, but the man in front of her was no stranger.Chuckling lightly, her eyebrows shot up under her mask in amusement. “If you were talking to the old me, I would definitely decline your request.”Black Python, Red Python, and White Python exchanged glances with each other.What was that supposed to mean?Did she mean that she was not going to refuse him now?“Huh?” Mason looked at her questioningly.He had prepared for a refusal and even thought of some countermeasures.“But thinking about it now, the Lowry Family can be of some use to me. I’ll also help you with anything you need in return.” Smiling, she continued, “I believe…” She paused. “the Lowry Family sees us the same way too.”He frowned. The stench of her perfume was so stifling that it made him lose his bearings.Leaning back, he said, “Of course! It would be an honor for us to be able to work with the MX.”Janet reached out her hand instinctively. “Pleasure doing business with you!”At this moment, however, he avoided her. A smile appeared on his handsome face as he said, “I look forward to working with you.”She smirked under the mask. For some reason, a feeling of joy overwhelmed her.From the start to the end, he had made sure to maintain some distance between them. With a smile on her face, she stood up in her five-inch heels. The strong scent of perfume exuded off of her even before she passed an area.When she started walking, she suddenly lost her footing and stumbled.To lessen the pain, she was going to fall on the sofa but she ended up falling into his arms instead.“Watch your step, Miss J’Adore!” Mason had a stoic look on his face as though he was simply helping out with a small matter.Her heart skipped a beat and she quickly pushed herself off of him.“Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Lowry!” She kept a straight expression on her face.Mr. Lowry?He froze at those familiar words.That was a name that only Janet called him by.Lowering his head, he only saw a woman dressed in a loose-fitting long-sleeved black blouse. It was a drastic difference from the way Janet dressed.Moreover, her voice was different.“What’s wrong? Don’t stare at me like that, Mr. Lowry!” She shot her eyebrows up at him as she asked in amusement.A moment later, he shifted his gaze away from her and kept a fixed distance between them. “My apologies. I got distracted.”Mason felt uneasy now as his whole body was covered with the strong scent of the perfume. Janet is not going to like this.For now, he decided to send his guests off first. “Let me see you off, Miss J’Adore.”“No need. I can still walk!” she insisted.He motioned to Black Python, White Python, and the others.“Come to the base in two days!”“Sure thing.”Once that was settled, Janet walked out of that big chilly conference room in her heels.Listening to the sound of heels clicking against the ground, Mason could not help but rub his temples in frustration.Even a completely unrelated woman reminded me of Janet. I think I’m starting to miss her again. Leaning against the sofa lazily, he reached up to loosen his necktie. Then, his previous frustrations were appeased the moment he heard the voice on the other end of the phone.
