This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1018 Shivering Cold

In the future, if Sonia faced any difficulties, she would no longer escape, and would go to Toby for help instead. However, she would remember every single time she received his assistance, so that she could return the favor in her own way. Only by maintaining this mutually beneficial relationship would she not feel any kind of burden.

At Sonia’s words, Charles was able to completely relax as well.

After that, Sonia lifted her glass of wine and looked at Brian. “Mr. Smith, please approve my application for a loan. I really need the funds to be in place today, as Paradigm Co. urgently needs the money. Your help would be much appreciated.”

Saying that, she lifted her glass of wine at Brian.

Smiling, Brian followed suit and clinked his glass with Sonia’s. “Don’t worry, I’ll instruct the bank later, and I’ll make sure that the funds will be in place before nine o’clock tonight by the latest.”

“That’s great. Thank you, Mr. Smith.” Sonia felt extremely excited and grateful. Then, as if recalling something, she bent over and lifted a gift box from the ground before handing it to Brian with both hands. “Mr. Smith, this is a small gift to thank you for your help. Please accept it.”

Before she arrived, she had found out that Brian’s biggest hobby was collecting antiques. Hence, she specially brought an antique vase from her house as a gift for him. After all, she had a favor to ask of him, so she couldn’t just show up empty-handed. That would just be rude.

Besides, preparing a gift that would satisfy the other party was also a trump card. What if they were unwilling to pass her application for a loan at first, but they changed their mind after seeing her gift? Even if they refused after seeing the present, they might still give her some other useful suggestions.

In short, a gift was a must no matter what, and nothing would go wrong with it. Besides, it would make the other party feel better about themselves. Even if they couldn’t work together this time, they might be willing to give her another chance because she had prepared a gift for them in the past. In any case, a gift was no longer only needed to achieve a certain purpose, but it was also a necessary step in the negotiating process.
