However, Ayan only gave her a cold glance and said indifferently, "Do you think it's necessary for us to have a meal together? If you believe that a meal can resolve what happened last night, then are you being too naive? Or perhaps your father, Mr. Nores, doesn't think the matter is serious enough, so he believes a meal can fix it?"
"This isn't my father's intention. It's me who came to find you, Mr. Simpson. I believe there's a misunderstanding between us. I can explain what happened last night, and I can also apologize to you. The Nores family has already started cooperating with Simpson Group. If Mr. Simpson suspends the collaboration at this point, it will be detrimental to both of our families. Do you really want mutual destruction, Mr. Simpson?"
Alicia explained sincerely, analyzing the situation. She tried to convince Ayan to reconsider.
However, what she didn't know was that this matter was a loss for the Nores family, but Ayan didn't suffer any losses. Not only did he not suffer any losses, but it would also completely derail the Nores Group's project. Although Mario initiated this collaboration, the project was in Hance City, on Ayan's territory. If he called for a suspension, it would be a suspension, whether temporarily or permanently.
All the decision-making power rested in Ayan's hands. Could a single Alicia easily change that?
Obviously, it was an impossible task. Alicia didn't understand Ayan at all, and she wasn't fully aware of the current situation.
Her sincere plea received no response from Ayan. His expression remained cold, and in the face of Alicia's expectant look, he merely chuckled lightly and asked indifferently, "What kind of impact do you think suspending this project will have on Simpson Group? Money? Do you think Simpson Group will go bankrupt without this project? Are you being too naive? This project is just one of the many projects of Simpson Group, it's dispensable to me. The only reason I agreed to collaborate was because of King Group. Otherwise, do you think I would have waited until now? Alicia, you're not the one who needs to apologize for what happened last night; it's my wife. I will thoroughly investigate the things you said to my wife, and it depends on whether you and the Nores family can handle the consequences."
After Ayan finished speaking, he lifted his foot and prepared to leave.
Alicia was momentarily stunned, but immediately stepped forward to stop Ayan. She said, "Mr. Simpson, Mr. Simpson, I truly know I was wrong. Although Simpson Group may not need this project, the Nores family has invested everything in it. If this project is suspended, Nores Group will suffer significant losses. Can you give me a chance? I can make amends!"
"Make amends? How do you plan to make amends? Huh? Wasn't I clear enough in what I said? Or do you not understand my meaning? As for how the Nores family is related to you, that's your own business, what does it have to do with me? You verbally attacked my wife. Should I be grateful to your Nores family? Alicia, if you can't think clearly, then please don't appear in front of me again. Your father must be unfortunate to have a daughter as foolish as you."
Ayan's words were always venomous, especially towards someone like Alicia. He became even more ruthless, naturally showing no mercy to her.
Alicia was completely stunned by his words and stood there motionless for a long time without any reaction.
Ayan coldly glanced at her and said, "Instead of trying to convince me, you have a better option. Show your sincerity by apologizing to my wife. Otherwise, this matter won't be settled, and you don't have much time."
After speaking, Ayan left.
Alicia stood there for a long time without any response. Ayan had completely trampled upon all her pride, but she couldn't even utter a word in retort. She tightly pursed her lips, tears welling up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
Ayan left Simpson Group in his car, and Kian, who was driving, asked with concern, "Mr. Simpson, will your words just now anger Alicia?"
