Gavin was still in deep sleep and showed no signs of waking up. The doctor told Hearst that there was good chance that Gavin would sleep for a few months, a few years, or even longer. However, Hearst didn't give up. He kept on waiting, expecting the moment of miracle.
In a blink of an eye, three days had passed since the accident to Gavin. In the following days, Heidy wanted to visit Gavin, but she was stopped by Annie. Heidy still lived in Hearst's villa and didn't want to leave like that. She was afraid that her relationship with Hearst would be over once she left here.
Today, on behalf of her company, Heidy went to handle a cooperation business. Since the last time Hearst revealed his real identity, Jacob was teased for making trouble out of nothing. Some of the companies that cooperated with the JA Group changed their target and wanted to cooperate with the J.Y Group. And as for this kind of cooperation company, J.Y Group treated them quite nicely. Therefore, some companies immediately cooperated with the J.Y Group.
After the accident, the profit of the JA Group fell sharply. As the Hua Group was developing fast, the overall economic situation of the JA Group lagged behind the Hua Group. The business they were talking about was a famous scientific research company in T country. It had good fame and reputation in electric appliances and other fields. And now, the company was ready to enter the domestic market.
When Heidy arrived at the hotel and came out of the elevator, she met Hearst who came out of another elevator. Heidy was surprised to see him. Although they lived under the same roof, over the past few days, they seldom talked with each other.
When she was about to say something, she saw Hearst walking past her coldly. Seeing him leaving, Heidy lowered her eyes. "Boss, it's time to go. We can't be slower than others," Assistant Chen reminded kindly.
Coming back to her senses, she nodded slightly. She raised her head and slowly walked forward.
In a room of the hotel, a foreigner was sitting on the sofa. He smiled at them and said in fluent Chinese, "I am honored to invite the CEOs of two outstanding companies in A city. I am sure you know my purpose to invite you here. According to my investigation, A city's economy achieve great progress. Both of your companies are the best in A city. So, our company plans to choose one out of the two company as a long-term partner."
With a smile on her lips, Heidy said: "Our company is mainly in the real estate industry, and next year our company will focus on the sales of household electric appliances. And your company is good at science and technology, and we are good at marketing. It will be great if we can work together."
The foreigner nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, although the Hua Group mainly focused on real estate, according to my investigation, it has indeed improved in the electric industry in the past two years. Then what's your opinion, Mr. Hearst?"
With his hands crossed over his chest, Hearst replied calmly, "Our company is growing increasingly fast, and we have two large shopping malls. If your company cooperate with us, I can draw a good spot to show your products to enhance the brand effects of your company. The value of a brand has great value on a company."
Heidy's eyes slightly narrowed. The foreigner put on a bigger smile and said, "It's a good idea."
Then, Hearst briefly told the advantages of the J.Y Group, and Heidy followed suit, but it seemed that Hearst was at the advantage in the meeting. Half an hour later, the foreigner finally decided to cooperate with the J.Y Group. The foreigner stood up, shook hands with them and said with a big smile on his face, "It's such a pleasure to meet you today. We are so lucky to meet you here, Mr. Hearst and Miss Heidy."
Hearst shook hands with him and replied, "Me too."
Looking at them, the foreigner teased, "I heard that you and Mr. Hearst is Miss Heidy's husband. I thought you would give the project to her today. The Hua Group is powerful, but it is not as good as the J.Y Group. I thought Mr. Hearst would help the Hua Group."
Hearing his words, Heidy's heart missed a beat. If nothing hadn't happened to Gavin, Hearst would help her. But now... "We want a fair competition," Heidy replied with a slight smile.
"Yes, we did," replied Hearst in a calm tone.
With his thumb up, the foreigner said admiringly, "I really admire you. It's better to separate work and life. Mr. Hearst, I look forward to our cooperation. Ms. Heidy, I hope there is a chance to cooperate with you."
Heidy nodded her head and turned around and left. Then, Hearst walked behind her. He looked indifferent and didn't plan to talk with her. Waiting in front of the elevator, both of them looked straight ahead without looking at each other. "Hearst, what should I do to make you believe that I have nothing to do with this matter?" Heidy said in a weak voice.
Then, with one of his hands in his pocket, he replied calmly, "Show me the evidence."
