Chapter 53 the bet
The legal team and Melody finalized contract details, while George and I were smoking in the smoking room. He was quite interesting, not even picky about cheap cigarettes. He was quite interesting, not even minding smoking Fifteens. "William, I’m counting on you for this collaboration. I wanted to invest more, but Marquesa Vines company’s plan this year is to expand nationwide, so Sevan’s budget can only allocate this much."
"George, your presence is already a big favor. I’m more than grateful."
Honestly, just him showing up was a godsend. And he even explained it to me. His attention to detail and character definitely warranted a deep friendship.
"Who else can do it if not you? Skylight has a good reputation, and with you here, I’m at ease."
I said seriously, "George, rest assured, whether it’s Edward’s project or yours, I will make sure you’re satisfied."
He patted my shoulder and said, "After this project is done, I’ll take you out to relax."
"Sure, but this time, it’s my treat."
"Deal."
We shared a smile.
Half an hour later, the legal teams finalized the contract, and while signing it, Jessica also arrived. Under her witness, a preliminary collaboration contract was signed with Skylight.
However, this contract was similar to paying a deposit. If Skylight didn’t perform well, or if Marquesa Vines company encountered issues, the agreement could be terminated at any time!
