Chapter 712
Charmine was not intimidated at all. She leaned back on the chair languidly.
"Evidence? You and I know better; I can't be bothered to pull and push with you. I stand with what I've said: I won't cooperate with you. The Jordan Group would never cooperate with your Jordown Group. If you want me to provide you with the materials, can you give me seventy percent of your shares?”
"Seventy? You’re practically robbing US, Charmine." Max's expression grew dark like burnt ashes. He glared at Charmine resentfully as if he could kill her. 1
As the Jordown Group's Director and President, he had never given out any shares, let alone letting others have more shares than him, yet Charmine asked for 70 percent of the company's shares?
Charmine met his gaze evenly. "Didn't you ask for the entire Jordan Group? I leave you with 30 percent as a kind gesture to these two men here. Didn’t you say you're a D'Cruz and you lack no money? The seventy percent I requested won't cost you anything anyway.”
Max was so furious that his face turned green. How could she link money with shares?
The value of shares could increase and give one authority, while money could die.
Max turned to the two men. "Mr. Hahn, Mr. Warren, you’ve witnessed yourselves Ms. Jordan's behavior. I'm serious in helping Burlington, but I don't think it's possible."
The two moguls also felt that Charmine was being unreasonable, thus they turned to her and said, "Ms. Jordan, why don't you two sit and talk it through? We're all trying to promote Burlington’s culture."
"There's nothing to talk about. Either take my offer for the Hundred Birds to develop successfully, or you get no materials and see the project fail.
Leaving you with thirty percent of the shares is the final offer," Charmine scoffed, never intending to back out.
Max was trying to get hold of her entire Jordan Group yesterday, to buy in the Jordan Group. She would not show him any kindness for that. 1
Adam, next to her, was terrified at the frosty demeanor she emitted.
He would have nodded and agreed to anything these two moguls said, yet Charmine fought back with such a tone.
Seeing that Charmine was so determined, Mr. Hahn and Mr. Warren exchanged glances.
Indeed, they had not met anyone who would not agree to what they said. However, Charmine was able to get hold of the materials from someone way above them, and she had the right to.
Mr. Hahn looked at Max. "Mr. D’Cruz, we can't step in on the business negotiation. We can't help you further. As for the exact deal and shares, you two will have to talk it out. We only want to see the big picture." 1
What he meant was that they could only help them up to this point; they could not help him any further.
Max’s large hand inside his pocket tightened.
He thought these two men could convince Charmine, but Charmine was a smelly, unmoving rock. 1
It seemed that there was only one way left...
He repressed his internal anger and regained his usual elegance.
"Nonetheless, I thank you both for speaking to me today. Even though Ms. Jordan and I can't come to an agreement, this was indeed a special occasion. Come, cheers." As he spoke, he picked up the teapot and poured each of them a cup of tea.
