Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 416 Failed Discussion

Since my intention in going there that day was to have an open discussion so that I could take away Michael’s deal, I naturally would not give up so easily.

Looking at how resolute I was, a troubled expression appeared on Chris’ face.

“Ms. Garcia, I have been working with Mr. Shaw for many years now. Furthermore, my contract with his company has yet to expire. You coming to see me now will affect my company negatively.”

“Mr. Lobston, there’s still another month before your contract with Joyful Success ends. This is the most suitable time for my company to approach you for a discussion on our future collaboration.”

Before coming to Red Star, I had already understood the ins and outs of the company. If I could not even get something as trivial as that right, I would not be there for a discussion.

However, I assumed Chris did not expect me to be so well-prepared. That was why he looked even more tense and troubled.

“Ms. Garcia, forget about the collaboration between our companies. Before you came here, I have already spoken with Mr. Shaw regarding the extension of our contract. Therefore, there’s nothing much I can do for you.”

Now I knew why Chris refused to talk to me about our collaboration. That was because Michael had already beaten me to it.

Since Chris had already agreed to work with Michael, nothing that I was about to say would be of any use. I was fuming.

I did not expect Michael to act so swiftly. Initially, I had thought that my company was swift in preparing to secure a contract with Red Star. Little did I realize that he was even faster.

No matter how furious I was deep down inside, I smiled and spoke politely to Chris, “All right then. Since you have already agreed to work with Joyful Success, then I can only hope to work with your company another time. Hopefully, you will be able to give my company a chance the next time around.”

“Sure! Most definitely!”

Chris heaved a sigh of relief the moment he heard me say that.
