The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1353

Chapter 1353

After hanging up the phone, Axel was in awe.

Chloe's confident voice was still ringing in his ears.

His mind was rattled by her plausible words, but he wasnt entirely convinced.

Basing the outcome on one person's character seemed risky to him. Such a big deal, how could it be driven by emotions?

However, Axel found himself wanting to believe Chloe. Although she didn't totally win him over, he couldn't deny that it was a possibility.

Axel was torn about whether or not to follow Chloe's advice. He felt he couldn't risk anything at this critical moment, but Chloe's confident voice made him want to go for broke.

His indecisiveness made his team confused; even Jon was looking at him puzzled.

"Axel?"

Jon called out to him and Axel snapped back to reality, giving Jon a nod and a smile. He slipped his phone back into his pocket and walked into the conference room.

Inside, Cole was still there, steaming. When he saw the people from Peck Innovations entering, his angry gaze landed on Axel. Cole had heard about some team trying to cut him out of the deal when he was signing contracts with other partners. Back then, the deal was set and he didn't think much of it. He didn't think any partner would choose to work with a nobody over the Alonso family.

But now, regardless of whether the deal went through or not, the Alonso family had become a laughingstock, something Cole could not stomach.

“Are you the ones stealing my business?" Cole asked, his voice full of disdain. "Which company are you with?"

Axel looked at Cole calmly and reached out his hand to Smith. "Hello, Mr. Smith."

Smith shook Axel's hand politely with his expression a bit dismissive. Axel didn't mind, after all, compared to the Alonso family, Peck Innovations, which had always kept a low profile, was easy to overlook.

Cole's anger grew seeing this. But noticing Smith's attitude, he forced a smile. "Smith, are you sure you want to work on such a big project with a nobody?"

Smith frowned. However, Axel, with a beaming smile, said, "Mr. Cole, that's not quite fair. Who says small companies can't handle big projects?

Compared with the current performance of the Alonso family, I think we are more reliable. What do you think, Mr. Smith?"

Smith sat down, nodded, and seriously said, “You're absolutely right.”

Axel smiled, looked around the office, and seeing that the Alonso family had no intention of leaving, he didn't say anything more. He pulled out the chair next to Smith, sat down, and said, “Let’s show Mr.

Smith our original contract proposal.”

The people behind him froze. Didn't Yasmine say we were supposed to make concessions? Why is it still the original contract? But they handed the contract to Smith anyway.

Smith glanced at it, his brow furrowed, and looked up at Axel.

“Are you serious about this contract?”
