Chapter 491 Deal

Catherine’s slender arm rested casually on the sofa’s armrest, tapping rhythmically.

“Answer it,” she commanded.

A single word containing an order.

Withal immediately answered the phone and switched it to speaker mode. The voice on the other end of the line was impatient, belonging to the chief attendant.

“Mr. Withal, is the doctor available? Could you please put the doctor on the line?”

The chief attendant’s tone was extremely polite when saying this, quite different from the impression Withal had of him when they had first met at the palace.

Withal responded irritably, “Don’t bother trying to reach the doctor. She’s made it clear he won’t take any more contracts from Ravenloth. Give up on this idea.”

Following the principle of money talking, after their initial refusal, the chief attendant didn’t hesitate to sweeten the offer.

“Mr. Withal, the king is willing to add another 100 million dollars to the previous offer as a goodwill gesture.”

Withal looked at Catherine for her opinion. Catherine continued tapping her armrest, with her other hand resting under her chin, moving back and forth.

Time ticked away, and the person on the other end of the phone was growing increasingly anxious.

They could afford to wait, but the crown prince couldn’t. Every second of delay meant another second of agony for the crown prince. With no other options, the chief attendant continued to sweeten the deal.

“200 million dollars. Will that be acceptable?”

Catherine didn’t like haggling. Instead, she preferred to get straight to the point.

“One billion dollars.”

Hearing Catherine’s answer, let alone the chief attendant, even Withal himself was momentarily stunned.

Catherine sure knew how to ask for a lot.

She had said all that needed to be said, and the rest was left to Withal. Catherine slowly stood up and walked over to the dining table.
