Chapter 408 New Partnership Choice

“If they’re not serious about the partnership, there’s no point wasting our time.”

Elena pulled out her phone and deleted LA Group’s contact without hesitation.

“They mentioned a one–month review period. Maybe after that, they’ll agree-

“William lets his personal feelings get in the way. Even if we closed the deal later, there’d be endless problems. If he can’t separate business from personal matters, I won’t cater to him.” Her tone turned cold.

LA Group wasn’t her only option–just a matter of cost. She had plenty of capital. She’d only wanted the best fit, but William’s unprofessional attitude wasn’t worth the hassle.

“You’re right, Ms. Sterling.” Lucas gained even more respect for her.

In the car, Lucas asked, “Shall I drive you home?”

Elena closed her eyes, resting. “No. Back to the office. Compile a list of all global suppliers for that chip. I’ll reach out personally.”

“But you look exhausted…” Lucas noted the weariness under her eyes.

“I’m fine. Drive.”

Lucas said no more and started the car.

Elena slowly opened her eyes. She wasn’t sure why she didn’t want to go home. Maybe it still stung that Alexander had kept secrets from her

Back at the office, Lucas quickly compiled the supplier data and sent it to her.

“All these companies can provide the chip we need. LA Group offered the lowest price. Next best is Innovatech–excellent reputation and strength. We’ve contacted them before, but their price is much higher than LA’s.”

When partnering, quality and cost mattered most.

“Money’s no issue. Contact Innovatech. Schedule a meeting with their team tomorrow.” Elena made the call decisively.

“Understood.”

By 10 PM, she’d finished all her work.

She pinched the bridge of her nose, stretched her stiff neck, and grabbed her phone–only to find it dead.

She plugged it in. As soon as it turned on, multiple missed calls popped up–all from Alexander.

She called him back.

Before she could speak, his voice came through.

“I’m downstairs at your office.”

“When did you get here”

“A while ago.”

Elena quickly gathered her things and headed down. On the street outside the building, she spotted his black Maybach.

He leaned against the car, tall and lean, blending into the night.

She walked over. “Sorry, my phone died. Work piled up today.”

Alexander asked no questions, no complaints. He opened the door for her.

Elena got in and buckled her seatbelt.

He glanced at her through the rearview mirror. “You’re upset.”

“No.” She marveled at his perceptiveness, a faint smile tugging at her lips. “Just busy.”

“Rest then.” He turned up the

she didnt what to say. She feared asking would only meet his silence.

“Let’s go home.” She closed her eyes.

Alexander stared at her face, as if committing every feature to memory.

Fiona and William met for lunch as planned.

As soon as they sat down, William rushed to flatter her. “I didn’t sign the deal with Elena yesterday.”

Fiona feigned surprise, blinking. “Why? Won’t your leaders be upset?”

William felt a flicker of anxiety.

୮

Before sending him here, headquarters had ordered him to close the deal within a month. Elena’s price was higher than expected, so securing the partnership was critical.

That’s why he’d dared to demand a one–month review.

But he reassured himself–LA Group was Elena’s best option. She’d left yesterday, but she’d come crawling back soon enough.

He relaxed. “It’s nothing. Making you happy is all that matters.”
