Chapter 58 Are You Two Dating?
"What is this?" Plucking the extended envelope out of his hand, Leonica gently peeled the edges open, fishing out the white paper with printed black letters on it and reading it over.
The very next second, her eyes shot open in disbelief and surprise as well. The content on the paper was a cooperation between her company Romero Empire and His family widely known own, Richardson Industries.
It was the one cooperation she had been striving to get, not wanting to work with Gabriel’s company after the entire commotion that had happened and after a whole month and a half, nearly two months, here it was... she holding it within her grasp.
If etiquette allowed it, Leonica would have thrown her arms around Arvan’s neck and pulled him into the tightest, happiest hug. However, etiquette didn’t and speaking from a standpoint, her stand point of view, she and Arvan weren’t that close, yet.
But the smile on her lips, which grew wider as she spotted that Arvan had changed several of the original contract’s condition, providing her company with 60 percent of their cooperation’s revenue rather than the fifty percent she had bargained for, was more than enough to express her joy.
"This..." She stuttered, words broken by the immense joy she was feeling.
Shoving his hand into his pocket and tipping forward on his toes, Arvan shrugged, acting as if the situation at hand was nothing, whereas his heart had did n unexpected summersault the moment Leonica beamed at him.

"Aravn, this is-"
"The contract you wanted?" He completed her statement and Leonica nodded. "Chloe told me all about your efforts, commendable might I say." There was a pause and he brought his hands out of his coat pocket, rubbing them together as if he was trying to get rid of the cold, a habit he did very often each time they spoke. Leonica, of course, took note of this and unsurprisingly, her mind went back to the pair of hand gloves she had seen when shopping a few days ago.
Making a mental to later purchase the gloves, a little thank you for everything so far, Leonica settled her full attention back on what he was saying.
