It was Percy's secretary who had said that the Watson Group would be in crisis if they offended Drake. That was why Percy had refused to work with Prospectus Technology.
Now? They hadn't offended Drake, but they had offended Damon. If they had to offend someone, he'd rather it be Drake.
Percy had worked with Damon for years. He knew Damon wasn't the type to push people to their breaking point. As for Drake, Percy had investigated him—he was a ruthless man.
People who had worked with Drake had all suffered. Yet, no one dared retaliate because Drake was supported by the Nixons. Associating with someone like that would be dangerous.
Percy's gaze shifted to the window, his expression grim. He couldn't shake the feeling that the tides were turning in Saintornia.
…
In the days that followed, executives from companies that had severed ties with Prospectus Technology flooded Spencer's phone with calls, all begging for a meeting with Damon.
No matter how persistent they were, Spencer always gave the same reply—Damon wouldn't see them.
On Monday morning, Percy arrived at Damon's office bright and early with the contract in hand.
"Mr. Guinness, you're here early," Damon remarked with a trace of surprise.
Percy's smile was awkward. "Yes, Mr. Sumner. I brought the contract. If everything looks good, we can sign it now."
Damon took the contract, skimmed it for about ten minutes, then nodded. "No issues. Let's sign."
Once the paperwork was complete, Damon handed one copy back to Percy. "Mr. Guinness, here's to a successful partnership."
"Likewise, Mr. Sumner. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave," Percy said, excusing himself.
Damon nodded. "Our procurement manager will coordinate with your team this afternoon."

The readers' comments on the novel: Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)
More chapters please why stop updating...
When will the new chapters come...
Author! Why does it always so mean? Like a new character will appear and at the end of the chapter, they're all antagonist who always intend to hurt Nyla. Is there any character who will protect her with no expectation in return of any thing?...
AUTHOR!!! NOTICE THIS PLEASE!!!! I hope that Nyla's heart can be softened with Damon alone like clear things up and make some intimate time with each other. And of course Damon talking to Rebecca will make Nyla go back to her status again. Just a short calmness and joy for Nyla and Damon....
