It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 665

"I'll just ask you one thing, if you were me, would you sign a contract like this?" Edward didn't answer his question, instead, he returned a question to him. His gorgeous face now looked stone-cold. Did Joseph really think of him as a dumb schmuck who would do as he was told?

"I always thought that you, Mr. Mu, was a man who knew what was best for him, but now, it seems that I was wrong. I was overestimating your intelligence." Although Joseph knew that the FX International Group was a very powerful and strong company, he still paid no heed to it. He believed that the influence of this big company was within its own country, not here in the B country. So he didn't have anything to worry about.

"Don't flatter me too much. After all, I'm just an ordinary person in front of you." Edward remained calm. He even picked up the cup of coffee placed on the table and gracefully took a sip from it. Then he raised his head and looked straight into the defiant eyes of Joseph. A playful smirk stayed on Edward's face all this time, making him seem sexier and more enticing than ever. Even Joseph who was a male chauvinist, was dumbstruck by his sheer beauty. He couldn't take his eyes off him for a while.

"Are you really sure that I am going to compromise on this matter?" Joseph snorted in front of Edward's face. He then stopped staring at his charming face and looked somewhere else. He didn't bother to hide his ambitions at all.

"But I'm not the kind of person to compromise that easily. As for the mining base, I can give you 20% of the profits at most. But if you want half of the profits, then sorry, I can't help you." The reason why Edward was ready to give them 20% of the profits was because he still wanted to use their influence in the local area. If he could successfully get their support, other companies wouldn't dare to cast their greedy eyes on the mining base, thereby indirectly making them safer in this place.

"I can't help but wonder, why are you so confident that I will accept a cooperation plan like this?" Joseph threw the same question back at Edward. 20% of the profits, was this a joke? Did Edward consider him a beggar? In this case, why in hell did them put in a lot of efforts to get him to compromise?

"Of course, you can refuse the cooperation plan. But in that case, you won't even get 20% of the profits. To be honest, I'm sure you know that the FX International Group is a Fortune 50 company. We are very patient and not afraid to waste your time." Edward lightly knocked his finger on the table. His deep blue eyes gleamed with wisdom and calmness. His eyes were looking deep into the eyes of Joseph.

"Are you threatening me right now?" Joseph didn't back down, he didn't want to be the one to compromise first. So after listening to Edward's words, he coldly stared back into his eyes, wanting Edward to feel intimidated.

"If you consider this a threat, then you are awfully wrong. I'm just merely stating the fact." However, on negotiating table, Edward would never admit defeat. So how could he accept being treated like an animal by some random stranger?
