Before Grant finished his sentence, Clayton already knew what he was going to say next.So, Ferguson Corporation would be a tough opponent to beat in this competition.That was why it was not surprising for Eric to personally show up here.When Clayton saw Eric in the middle of the crowd, his eyes turned slightly colder.Clayton thought, ‘He’s back again? Does he think that everything is in the past? Does he think that he can just find an excuse for himself and show up here again frankly?’No one would forget those things.Grant saw Clayton’s cold gaze and guessed that this probably had something to do with Nicole.“Lil N still hasn’t recovered her memory yet, so don’t let people talk nonsense in front of her.”Clayton smiled. “Of course. With her personality, she won’t even believe it even if others told her.”Nicole only believed what she wanted to believe.After this period of interaction, Nicole was not the slightest bit repulsed by Clayton any more.Even when Clayton tr
Even without Eric, there were ways for Grant to get to know Mr. Jensen.The two companies competed for this project, and it was still not known who would be the winner.They separated business and personal affairs clearly.Eric was very determined to win this project. When he entered the door, some of the people who were thinking about the project had already surrendered.However, Grant would not.Stanton Corporation would not lose to Ferguson Corporation in terms of strength and reputation.Grant stood up, glanced at Clayton, nodded, and then followed Eric to leave.He only said this to ease the tension between Clayton and Eric.Eric had deep roots in Atlanta, and the forces supporting him were complex.If they really fought, Grant was worried that Clayton would be at a disadvantage.After all, Grant needed to protect his own brother-in-law.Clayton looked at Eric’s departing back, and his face sank slightly.At this moment, his phone lit up. Nicole replied to his earlier
Clayton bowed his head and smiled. He did not hide anything and said bluntly, “Not every project that I invest in will be successful. It’s just luck. That project won’t make a big profit. My wife just told your wife about it after she heard me talking about this project back then. In fact, I’ve already mentioned the risks. We have to be cautious in investment and we shouldn’t blindly follow hearsay.”When Samuel Lindstrom saw Clayton like this, the irritation he felt in his heart disappeared.Lumi Makinen, that brainless woman, had always regarded Clayton as a legend in the investment world, so much so that she almost hung up Clayton’s portrait at home.If Samuel did not stop Lumi, that woman would have wanted to change her phone’s lock screen to a picture of Clayton.This showed how obsessed Lumi was.However, Lumi was not obsessed with Clayton as a man but as the legend that was undefeated in the investment world.Due to this, the woman who had repeatedly failed in investment s
Near the end, Grant and Eric had said all that they should, and they had already stated all their conditions and advantages respectively.The rest depends on how they would compete in private.This banquet was just the beginning.They left one after another, and Clayton stayed till the end.Some people came over to say goodbye, and Clayton smiled in response.“Mr. Sloan, it's been a long time since I’ve seen Ms. Stanton. Please send her my regards.”Clayton nodded and spoke with a smile.“I’ll be sure to tell her. Nicole has always liked collaborating with you. Let’s play golf some time.”“Sure!”......Everyone talked and laughed as they left one after another.Clayton waited until Mr. Jensen was about to leave before he straightened his clothes and followed him.When Mr. Jensen was about to get into the car, Clayton called out to him.“Mr. Jensen…”After all, Mr. Jensen was from the army. Although he was old, he was fit and did not show any signs of middle-aged weight g
In fact, both Ferguson Corporation and Stanton Corporation met all of Hank Jensen’s expectations.Eric used to be in the army, so he had an advantage in this area. It also goes without saying that Ferguson Corporation is very powerful.However, Stanton Corporation’s idea was very creative. Some construction aspects were almost the same as their original intention. Moreover, Stanton Corporation had overlapping parts in certain project areas, so they held an advantage in this sense.Thus, to make a decision, Hank Jensen still needed further studies and judgment. Before that, he would not make any premature promises.As for Clayton Sloan...After listening to Hank’s words, Clayton smiled. He did not show too much expectation and enthusiasm.This made Hank somewhat puzzled as he did not know what Clayton was going to say.After a few seconds’ pause, Clayton spoke frankly.“Who wouldn’t be interested? It’s just that I know that I won’t be allowed to touch that project.”Hank sighed
Clayton smiled and raised his hand to look at the time.“I’ll send the relevant information to your email later. You can decide after reading it.”Hank Jensen did not know what to say for a moment. He just felt exhilarated. “If there’s no problem with your technology, we’ll save billions of dollars, and time won’t be an issue!”After that, Hank suddenly calmed down and froze for a moment.“Is that project your own? Or do you have a Libertian on board?”Hank could not help but worry about this. If Clayton lied to him, the country’s interests would be at stake, and he would lose his office.Clayton spoke with a smile on his face.“I won’t partner with someone else in such a sensitive investment. Otherwise, it might get forcefully confiscated. That’s also why I chose South Africa. If you want, you can select two of your people to go over and take a look after reading the information. I also hope our cooperation will withstand the test.”The smile on Hank’s face could no longer be
Clayton spoke flawlessly, making it impossible to find any fault with him.Hank Jensen narrowed his eyes, deep in thought.Clayton said, “Perhaps I’m too used to being an investor, so now that my role is different, I have to make something clear. After you evaluate the project and want to cooperate with me, I won’t allow anyone else other than the political party’s technical personnel to interfere on my side. That means whether you decide to cooperate with Stanton Corporation or Ferguson Corporation in the future, they won’t have the right to tell me what to do. Perhaps at some point, they will even have to listen to me.”Clayton finished speaking and quietly observed Hank’s expression.Hank’s smile faded, and he gradually became serious.What an old fox.Hank picked up a bargain, yet he still did not allow others to mention their conditions?Hank completely understood Clayton’s intent.The best option was to choose Stanton Corporation so as not to create any hostility between
Yvette touched her hair and suddenly realized something. “I forgot! Why am I at your house? I’ll leave now!”With that, she grabbed her phone and headed out.The person on the phone spoke in a suppressed tone.“Yvette, hurry back to your room and go to sleep!”Yvette froze in place when she heard that.She looked around dumbfounded as she tried to recognize whose house she was in.Clayton picked Nicole up with one hand.“Ms. Quimbey, you should go in and rest. I’ll take Nicole with me.”Luckily, they were drinking at home. They would have been in trouble if they were outside.Yvette froze. “Oh, okay. Go back home then. Goodbye!”A voice once again came through the phone that Yvette was holding.“Yvette, hurry back to bed! If you drink so much again next time, watch how I’ll clean you up!”Lance was ruthless and talkative. He was helpless over the video call.The maid sent Clayton out and said, “Mr. Sloan, have someone make Ms. Stanton some hangover tea before she sleeps. O
