My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 552

Chapter 552

The employee froze for a while, then continued, "But Ms. Daugherty, this project has to make its first progress report in three days."

"We have already completed eighty percent of the work. Let the Joneses take care of the remaining twenty percent." Adina pushed the contract away and said lightly, "Serene, you liaise with the technical department of Jones Corporation. Today's meeting may now be adjourned. I will personally be there on the day of the report."

Adina coldly curled up the corners of her lips.

Since Mr. Benny of Elites and Zhenny had joined hands to set her up, she had no choice but to let Elitos bear a substantial loss.

Elites was a big company that could afford to sustain certain losses.

Adina returned to her office to continue arranging the follow-up work. When she had only just been busy for a half hour, Serene came in while holding a phone, with a quandary look on her face. "Ms. Daugherty, Ms. Yackley from Jones Corporation specified that she wanted to talk to you, and she said that if you refused to talk to her, she would come to our company in ten minutes."

Adina reached out with her hand. "Give me the phone."

Just as she put the phone to her ear, Jasmine's voice came

over, "Adina, you're going too far."

Adina gave a light laugh. "Ms. Yackley., tell me, how am I going too far?"

"My company programmers can’t even understand the chip framework that was designed by LaStar Technology Corporation. You must send a representative over as the technical advisor!" Jasmine said coldly, "If you object to this request, Jones Corporation will refuse to complete the remaining twenty percent of the work.”

Adina was on the verge of laughing out, while she was just as furious. "The profits are split into half and shared between Jones Corporation and LaStar Technology Corporation. LaStar Technology has already helped Jones Corporation to do an additional extra 30 percent of work, and I have been generous enough to do it as a favor. It does not mean that you can take an inch and make it a mile. Ms. Yackley can, of course, choose to refuse to complete the remaining work, but Jones Corporation will need to bear the responsibility for the consequences."

After saying that, she hung up.

Serene said with some concern, "Ms. Daugherty, Jones Corporation is known for being adamant in the business field. Will we offend them by doing this?" Adina asked rhetorically. Serene shook her head. "It was Jones Corporation who wanted to sit idle and get a piece of the pie. They've gone too far."

"That's fine." Adina said in a light voice, "If we are reasonable, then we have nothing to fear from them. Don't worry too much

about this matter. I've got this under control."

Serene felt immediate relief from her anxiety.

She looked at Adina, respect and admiration welling up in her eyes.

She was only a year older than Adina, but every time she encountered such a difficult matter, she would always be there for her.

Some people were destined to be extraordinary when they were born. Ordinary people could be compared to them.

When it was about time to leave work, Adina instinctively wanted to go to the kindergarten to pick up her children from school. However, just as she picked up her bag, she remembered that the task to pick up the two little ones from school had been taken over by Mdm. Winters.

She heard the shriek of a shouting voice coming from the office when she was about to leave.

"Oh my God, is that Mr. Winters down there?"

"Mr. Winters is considerably more attractive than those young men who have nothing but looks to bolster their popularity."
