Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1728

"No, thank you!" Daniel looked at the somewhat unprofessional coffee pot and forced a slight smile. "Let's focus on business."

"Alright!" Lily, who was also straightforward, took the agreement out of a drawer. "Please review this, Mr. Quimby.

"This is the investment agreement, with an investment proposal and a project plan attached at the end. Normally, your side should be responsible for writing these, but I went ahead and prepared them for your convenience. It'll make it easier for you to present them to the board and appease the old folks!"

Daniel smirked and sighed, finding it amusing. Lily knew the working style of the Quimby Group inside out. With a board mainly composed of veterans, anything required discussion at meetings. Although Daniel could make decisions, he couldn't simply impose his will.

Furthermore, the investment proposal from SL Publishing was insignificant in the grand scheme of things for Quimby Group. If they followed the standard procedure, it might take an eternity for this to reach the board. Even then, approval wasn't guaranteed.

Therefore, Lily turned to the last page. She had another trick up her sleeve.

"Urgent report?" Daniel widened his eyes.

"Well... it's a necessary move. I hope you understand." Lily smiled, her eyes sparkling with slyness. "If you sign this urgent report, you can pretend you wrote it yourself. I know that, within the Quimby Group, any case with an urgent report like this one is merely a formality during a board meeting. Those old folks won't object! This way, there's hope for my investment!"

"Lily!" Daniel was speechless. "You'll go to any lengths for the money, won't you?"

"What else can I do? I need the money!"

"You're quite frank."

"Mr. Quimby." Lily chuckled. "I've said it before, you'll eventually come back to sign a contract with me, won't you? Don't worry, I'll offer your little rabbit generous royalties."

Daniel glanced at her. When all was said and done, he produced a pen and signed his name on the agreement.
