Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 167

When Kate heard the click from the door behind, she immediately knew Leo had some evil plan in his mind.

Anxiously, Kate sat on the sofa with her hands clasped together.

Leo smiled gently at her, “Kate, about our project, we still have a lot of details to hammer down, don’t you think so?”

Kate nodded her head and smiled. “Yeah, we do have a lot to cover before the partnership can officially begin. Oh, I also need to tell you this. My directors said this partnership is only worth our consideration if we receive 5 more percent of your company’s profits as commission.”

“You want 5 more percent of our profits?”

Leo contemplated for a while and chuckled, “If we give you 5 more percent of our profits, then we won’t gain much from it. Can you help me inform your directors that we can only increase it by 2 percent at most?”

Kate replied apologetically, “Well, there’s nothing I can do if that is what the director wants. It is true that your company has a lot of resources, but do remember this, there are a lot of companies out there competing for a partnership with us too.”

“Alright, then. We shall conform to your company’s wishes since our companies have been working together for quite some time and any changes to that might be disrupting for the both of us.”

Leo let out a bitter smile. “Okay then, shall we proceed to the details of this partnership?”

Kate finally let out a breath of relief as Leo didn’t seem to have any other personal agendas. She took out her documents and started to discuss business matters with Leo.
