Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 23

Linda could not bear to watch Karine pick on Cordelia in the office, so she took her out for some sales, introducing all her clients to her. She also taught her a lot of negotiation techniques.

“You’ve got to remember. Business isn’t a one-time deal. You might have to meet and negotiate a deal eight or ten times. It’s all normal.”

Cordelia nodded.

“You have to keep your engagement with the clients going all the time. They’ll only close the deal once they’re familiar with you!”

“Mm, I understand.”

“Most importantly...” Linda said with a smile. “You’ve got to be shameless when it comes to sales! Set your pride aside. Then, you’ll be able to feed yourself. Got it?”

Cordelia’s pretty eyes crinkled up like crescent moons. The monitor in front of them displayed their order number, so she hurried over to collect their meal from the counter.

Lunch was simple fast food. Linda realized that Cordelia’s order was the cheapest option, which only included one entree, and could not help asking, “Will you be full just by eating this?”

“No worries.” Cordelia chuckled. “I don’t eat much anyway. This is enough.”

“No way! Going out for sales is a physical chore. Check your size. This is…” Linda’s thoughts caught up with her halfway through her sentence, and she asked, “Did your husband use up all your money?”

Cordelia was about to explain when Marcus texted her. She went silent after reading the text.

When Linda saw her face fall, she took the phone from her and nearly jumped in rage.

“What kind of person is he?!” Linda fumed. “He—He’s actually out shopping? He saw a belt he likes? And it costs $400?”
