Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 949

Mira had no choice but to dangle a massive piece of bait.

"Don't worry, I won't leak your data. My company just has some internal needs for it."

"I heard you were developing a mobile OS too."

Being a shareholder at Android Inc., James naturally had the inside track.

"My dear, who told you about our research?"

"I won't lie to you. It was Mishka, and his intel came from Lawrence Lance—your boyfriend's brother,"

James answered.

"Thanks."

"No problem. I can help you with that."

"James, my friend, even if you refuse to help me this time, our research will still succeed. It will simply be delayed by a few months.

But you, on the other hand, will lose me as a friend.

The next time I hit Wall Street, I won't be taking you along to make a profit."

Mira was playing a delicate game of carrot and stick; she wanted to take a gamble.

"If James still says no, do you plan to up the ante, or will you really cut ties with him?"

Owen asked while James hesitated.

"We still need his help with the Balkan Underworld situation. Can we really cut ties?

If he refuses, I'll sweeten the deal. If he still says no, we'll just have to drop it.

For the mobile OS, if we can't leverage their tech, we'll have to build it entirely from scratch.

It just means results will take a bit longer."

To her surprise, it didn't take long for James to call back.

"Alright, I can give you the latest system data. But I have conditions."
