Chapter 251: A call from subordinate
After her business discussion with Daniel Watts, a mediator sent by the Watts families. Jessica rose gracefully and exited the sitting room leaving the space for them to chat.
Back in her bedroom, Jessica reclined on the edge of the bed, her fingers dialing Richard’s number from her phone’s speed dial.
As the call connected, she didn’t waste time to issue a set of instructions.
"Draft a partnership agreement with the Watts Group in our terms of operations," she instructed.
"We’ll remain the majority shareholders. But from their end, Daniel Watts is the only person authorized to represent them."
Though, such arrangement would have elicited the Watts family’s objection but with their hope and expectations clinging to the duo they are partially tongue tied.
Richard was stunned and frozen into silence. Just two days ago, he had been called by Jessica to gear up for an aggressive acquisition as such as he had expected it to take place the next week.
Now it seemed the deal had not only gone through, but Jessica had decided to keep a face of the Watts family intact.
"How did you pull this off?" he asked, incredulous.
He almost pitied the Watts family. Jessica never made a move unless she planned to bankrupt, dismantle, or completely erase her target. But her next words left him stunned.
Jessica smiled faintly, her voice calm but amused. "I didn’t," she said. "Davis did."
