Spoiled my CEO husband after Rebirth novel Chapter 64

Gwenda held up five fingers quickly and said, "50 percent!"

August glanced at her, a satisfied smile appearing on his face. "Deal!"

"Right, it's decided then. You can't go back on your word!"

August cocked an eyebrow, "A cheap deal like that, how could I possibly go back on my word?"

Hearing this, Gwenda instantly realised that she had been tricked.

But she could not do anything about it.

If she wanted to build up Cecilia's popularity and elevate her status through this, she would have to take that cut in profit, seeing as her cousin was being an unscrupulous businessman towards her at the moment.

...

Gwenda sighed.

Back at the hotel restaurant, Olivier had returned to his private room.

His aura had become much more temperate, which caused everyone to look at him in surprise.

Olivier explained politely, "I met an acquaintance and said hello."

Then, he returned to his seat with ease. The frigid aura around him dissipating completely.

The others traded looks with each other while Otto discreetly studied his boss' face.

...

Was he well acquainted with that person?

Why did his glacial outlook vanish after he returned?

"What's wrong?"

Noticing that everyone was looking at him, Olivier asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Nothing! Nothing at all."

The CEOs had experienced all sorts of strange situations, so it was easy for them to brush it off and chat warmly with each other.

Soon, the meal was over.

Olivier left the hotel and got into his car.

Otto, who could no longer hold back his curiosity, asked, "Boss, who did you meet at the restaurant earlier?"

Olivier replied with a question instead, "Do you know August Reed?"

"August Reed? CEO of Reed Corporation? Yeah, I know him. He's big in the cosmetics industry,"

Otto said, "And he's Miss Evan's cousin too."

Olivier raised his eyebrows. "You know about this?"

"Everyone knows this, boss."

Olivier did not reply.

"Boss, did you meet him today?"

Otto asked curiously.

Olivier nodded. "Yeah."

Not only did they meet each other, but they also ended up having a big misunderstanding.
