In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 369

"Ms. Lewis, how about we—" Luke hesitated to speak, obviously not wanting Grace to have too much contact with Benjamin.

But Grace knew that what had to happen couldn't be avoided.

She walked into the room calmly, displaying elegance in every gesture.

"So, you're the behind-the-scenes boss of this project. It's quite unexpected."

Smiling, Benjamin casually said, "At first, Hawkins Group wasn't involved in this field. But now we want to work with you, so we're trying."

Grace smiled and asked, "So you mean Hawkins Group wants to work with Amirate?"

After a nod, Benjamin took a folder from Larry. "Yes. We just need to discuss the details."

Grace raised an eyebrow, but her tone remained calm. "Oh, do you have any doubts, Mr. Hawkins?"

"There's one thing. I find the profit distribution ratio a bit unreasonable."

As soon as he said that, Luke instinctively pushed his glasses up his nose. He didn't feel like Benjamin had any intention of collaborating at all.

"Mr. Hawkins, Hawkins Group is just a newcomer to this project. Our cooperation should follow the normal profit distribution ratio. Or do you have no intention of working with us at all?"

Luke spoke without reservation, his words sharp and intimidating.

However, Benjamin looked at Grace. "Your assistant is right. According to this profit calculation, Hawkins Group has already taken a big advantage.

"So, I think a 50-50 split is unreasonable. How about we change it to a 70-30 split? Amirate gets 70%, and Hawkins Group gets 30%."

Luke looked incredibly surprised. Was Benjamin here to negotiate a deal? Wasn't he basically giving money to Amirate?
