"The agreement exists..." but it's not like she’s selling herself.
Sophie was too embarrassed to say more, so she quietly picked up the partnership agreement on the table.
It read, "Aldridge Global Contract."
"Do you really want me to sell myself?"
Gordon glanced at Sophie.
Realizing she had misspoken, Sophie quickly corrected herself, "I mean, you want to sign me?"
Gordon spoke indifferently, "That's the idea. It's clearly stated in the contract."
"Mr. Gordon, although I've considered making a debut, I..."
"You plan to debut with S Corporation but are not willing to join the Aldridge family?"
"Um, well..."
Sophie couldn't organize her thoughts for a moment. Technically, that was the idea.
Gordon said, "Don't forget the agreement I signed with you before. If the Russell family goes under, it will also affect the Aldridge family. Now I want to sign you, and it's something you should do."
Sophie felt she had been tricked, utterly tricked.
Gordon had leveraged her unwillingness to owe others. What a cornering move!
Sophie put down the contract in her hand and said, "Alright, I agree."
After all, to outsiders, she was now nothing more than a bankrupt daughter of a fallen family, desperately in need of a respectable job.
Once S Corporation cut ties completely with the mess of Russell Enterprises, her position would also be terminated.
Aside from a very few who knew she was the power behind S Corporation, her public image was still that of the fallen heiress of the Russell family.
Sophie said, "But I have one condition."
"Speak."
