Chapter 781

“This is our fault, Charlotte. We should have talked with Zachary about this.” Louis looked guilty. “Please don't be upset, Zachary. Just see this as a normal dinner. We can talk about work later.”

“This is our fault, Charlotte. We should have talked with Zachary about this.” Louis looked guilty. “Please don't be upset, Zachary. Just see this as a normal dinner. We can talk about work later.”

“I invested ten billion for my shares. This is a fair trade. Why should we delay the talk?” Charlotte shot back.

“That Koandrian offered fifteen billion for ten percent of the shares, but I refused him anyway.” Zachary looked at her coldly and asked Louis, “How much did you give her?”

“I...” Louis whispered, “Fifteen percent.”

“Fifteen?” Zachary was vexed. “What do you think this project is? Something you can use to hook up with the ladies?”

“What nonsense are you spouting!” Charlotte growled. “I might not have much in this project, but I have my resources! Lindberg Corporation can help this project tremendously!”

“Oh, really?” Zachary arched his eyebrow. “Fine then. We're planning on expanding this project to Erihal. We can talk about your participation after you show me Erihal's authorization letters.”

“Why you...” Charlotte couldn't argue against that.

“Let's not fight, Zachary. At least for my sake, okay?” Louis tugged at Zachary, seemingly in a panic. “The partners are watching. We don't want to fight in front of them. It's just a gathering today. We can talk about the project later.”

Charlotte didn't interject. She couldn't afford to enrage Zachary at that point. If he were to voice his objection, Louis and the partners wouldn't help her.

Zachary glared at Louis coldly, still irked about his actions. Zachary had a lot of projects on his hand, and he didn't need more. The only reason he helped Louis was on the basis of altruism. He didn't care about Louis' royalty status.

Louis had been too sheltered, and he knew nothing about the darkness of the world. He still acted like a child even though he was already twenty-eight. If he didn't deliver anything of value, he'd be the laughing stock of the other royalty members. Worse, he might be stripped of his title.

After what happened that night though, Zachary realized Louis was no more than an incompetent businessman. What he did was taboo for Zachary. He would not have tolerated it if the guy weren't Louis. But he couldn't bring himself to do it when the kid was pleading with him, and Charlotte being there didn't help. Left with no choice, he went along with Louis.
