“Sha, we are now working under Andy. He will be mad if he finds out you bypass him to negotiate directly with Sky Precision.”
“But isn’t it the same if we close the deal and split the earnings with him?”
“How is that the same? An egoist control freak like him would definitely not be happy with that. What matters more to him is submission and obedience from his subordinates, not money.” Lance was stern, quite unlike his usual self.
Moreover, his reasoning and analysis were way too sophisticated, beyond what a normal college kid could come up with.
He spoke as though he was an experienced expert in such matters. How could that be? Did I hear him wrong?
His rebuttal left Sasha speechless.
Seeing her reaction, he realized his unusual behavior had stunned her, so he changed his tone and explained, “I… Sha, don’t get mad. I might sound a little harsh, but I have heard about such things from my friends. I am just worried for you.”
Sasha stared at him for a few seconds. She decided he was telling the truth and dismissed her own suspicion.
“It’s okay. I’ll think about it again. You’d better head off to bed,” she said.
That very night, she tossed and turned in bed, torn between Solomon’s attractive proposal and Lance’s very rational analysis.
Unexpectedly, like a magician, Solomon appeared out of the blue right in front of her the next morning. For a moment, his stunning features and warm smile dazzled Sasha.He had specially flown back from Clear to accompany her to meet the person in charge of the Jetroina project. He seemed to have read her mind and knew she was hesitant.
“Morning, Nancy. I knew you would be undecided, so let me accompany you there.”
Sasha was grateful for his concern. His presence gave her assurance and eased her worry.
