Chapter 299 Pleased
Anyone else who said that would come off incredibly flirtatious, but it sounded flattering coming from him.
Talking to him was comfortable, and he was not offensive.
Elisa arched an eyebrow at him but stayed quiet.
They continued eating and chatting. Will was easy to talk to as he was knowledgeable on just about any topic. There was no lull in their conversation as his interests were broad. And he did not make you feel as if you were dumb for not knowing something.
This was…
Elisa couldn’t help but admit to herself that this was one of Will’s strong points that Gareth lacked.
When they were done eating, Elisa looked at Will seriously, “Let’s start with talking about the issues in this proposal.”
“I wouldn’t have entertained the idea if it weren’t for you.” Will smirked and sighed.
Elisa’s lip started twitching. She handed him the project proposal.
“To be blunt with you, we will need your company to take care of the capital of this project. But I think you’ll understand why after looking at this.”
“You’re confident.” Will arched an eyebrow at her.
Elisa had mentioned that he would be an idiot to agree to this. Therefore things weren’t that simple. Perhaps the capital far exceeded what he imagined it would be.
Elisa smiled as Will took it from her and started to read it.
Instead of starting from the first page, he scanned and saw the number he was asked to fork up.
“Four billion.” Will blurted out. He was both shocked and found it humorous.
Elisa smiled. “Read on.”
She seemed confident. Her confidence reeled him in and made him curious.
Will stared into her eyes but couldn’t tell what she was thinking. Instead of reading the rest of the proposal, he asked.
“You’re sure about this project?”
“The previous one was a no go. But I’ve made some changes to it.”
Will narrowed his eyes. He didn’t say anything but turned his attention back to the documents in his hands.
There were three pages.
In the beginning, he went about it how he normally would when faced with a business proposal.
But…
His eyes widened the more he read. It now had his full attention. As if he were looking for anything suspicious or for any loopholes. He seemed to also be admiring Elisa’s handiwork.
Until…
He read it all.
Will frowned as he looked at Elisa. “How much of this proposal did you have to change?”
Elisa’s eyes darted to the side before looking back at Will. “Do we need to discuss this?”
Will smirked. “Of course. I’d personally follow up on this if we were to go through with this project. I’d also need to follow up with the person who was responsible for the proposal.”
Elisa was calm as ever before finally admitting, “I changed a lot of it.”
Will was even more amazed.
“Elisa, you can count on me if your goal is to take back Benett Corporation. In fact, I’ll even do it for you.”
Elisa’s lip twitched. “Are you trying to poach me?”
Will sighed, “Benett Corporation will be yours in any case. I’ll make sure of it. Meanwhile, how about you come work for Darcey Group? I’ll give you any position you want.”
“Mr. Darcey, if you even know me at all, you’d know I would never do that.”
Elisa sounded self-depreciating.
Will sighed again, “I know.”
He stared at her. “I know that you think it’s only a matter of time before Benett Corporation will be yours, but it will take longer for you to do things this way. Meanwhile, your enemies will happily take what resources you have.”
