Chapter 102
Chris’s pov
I didn’t sleep well all night. Intellectually, the farther away Kenneth and I are, the better. Warren was right across from me and could find out at any moment.
From my own selfishness, I am eager to meet Kenneth. After all, I am used to his arms, and I will sleep more sweetly when he holds me.
I thought Kenneth would come back, but he didn’t come home all night.
I woke up very early, and I couldn’t help sighing when I looked at the empty quilt around me.
Kenneth has already occupied such an important position in my heart before I know it.
Get up, wash and change clothes, and see all kinds of hickeys with different shades below the neck. The previous ones have not disappeared and added some.
Thinking of his gentleness, my heart is sweet.
Uncle said that he would take care of the rest things, and one day I would stand in the warm sunshine with him aboveboard.
I am full of confidence and hope for the future.
Dressed up, I knocked on Warren’s door in high spirits. “Mr. Warren, are you ready?”

“Well, let’s go and have breakfast.” I see Chris who looked capable and concise today, my eyes shines.
It seems that Chris can always give me some surprises, sometimes pure, sometimes charming and sometimes capable. She is like a goblin, and can have thousands of faces.
“Mr. Warren, what’s wrong with you?”NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
I looked back. “It’s okay. Let’s go.”
I’ve never been so rude to Kitty. Kitty is too keen on perfection. Even at home, she always wears makeup on her face, and she doesn’t remove makeup until I sleep.
She said she only wanted me to see her most beautiful side, and she had no confidence without makeup.
After a long time, I have forgotten what her plain face looks like, and those makeup looks like a layer of masks on her face.
I can’t see any surprises in her, so Chris’s appearance is like injecting a clear stream into a quiet life.
Chris and Kitty are very different people. She is pure and beautiful without makeup. Once she wears makeup, even if she only wears lipstick , it will give people a stunning feeling.
I suddenly look forward to tonight’s dinner party. She can’t go in so simply. How beautiful will she be under her costumes?
“Tonight’s dinner is a charity auction dinner, which will be attended by many people. There is also the president of a cooperation project I am preparing. So tonight we are going with a purpose, and then you should dress up beautifully.” I warned.
“Mr. Warren, I see.” Chris nodded.

When I arrived at the target company, I followed Warren, which was my first time to go to a foreign company.
The receptionist gave a warm reception and told us the president was waiting upstairs.
I got on the elevator with Warren, and I was a little nervous.
Warren said that the success rate of this project is very high, so there should be nothing to worry about.
I am inexplicably uneasy, just because something happens every time I am uneasy.
“How can the expression be so dignified? It is not so difficult.” Warren said with relief.
I nodded. “Well, I hope it can be won smoothly.”
Warren is kind to me, except for slapping me inexplicably before, and I still hope the Wilson family is good in my heart.
The president of this company is a middle-aged American in his forties, and he has a big belly and is not much different from the rich people in other countries.
Warren greeted him.
“Sorry, we can’t cooperate with this project. After careful consideration, we found that there is a company more suitable to cooperate with us.”

This news is like a bolt from the blue, which directly hit my forehead. Although my heart is stunned, the expression on my face is calm. “Mr. Herman, are you kidding me? We have been communicating for more than a month. Didn’t we all talk about it before?”
“Yes, we talked smoothly. Personally, I appreciate Mr. Warren and hope to become good friends with Mr. Warren. At the beginning of this cooperation, I really wanted to give it to your company. Now I have made some temporary adjustments here.”
I pushed the frame, which is also a common method in shopping malls. It is possible that the other party is just trying to get the best benefit.
“Mr. Herman, I can understand your adjustment. If we feel that the conditions we talked about before are not satisfactory, then we can talk again. I also sincerely want to reach a cooperation with your company and fly to the United States specially. You might as well talk about your conditions again.”
Herman took a sip of his coffee, licked his lips and said, “Mr. Warren, it’s not a conditional thing.”
“Mr. Warren, let me get this straight. We found a company. After investigation, we all agreed that it would be better to cooperate with that company in terms of business scale and development prospects.”
“Mr. Herman, since we can’t cooperate, I just want to know one thing. Which company do you want to cooperate with?”
“The King Group.”

Hearing this name, my face changed, and my folder fell to the ground.
“I’m sorry.” I quickly picked up the folder, why Uncle? Think of his hasty departure last night, is it for this matter?
This cooperation fell through, and Herman personally sent us to the elevator door.
“Mr. Warren, although this cooperation has not been reached, I hope we can continue to cooperate in the future.”
“OK, look forward to the next cooperation with your company.”
Warren still maintained a humble expression on his face. “Mr. Herman. this is a small gift .”
I handed over a delicate packing box, which was a gift prepared by Warren early in the morning.
“Mr. Warren?”
“Mr. Herman and I hit it off. Although we didn’t reach a cooperation this time, I believe there must be a next time. I know that Mr. Herman likes to collect snuff bottles. It happened that I recently got a snuff bottle of ancient times. I hope you can like it.”
Herman opened it and saw that the exquisite pattern made him fondle admiringly. “It’s amazing, it’s amazing.” He praised .
He likes this gift very much and has repeatedly promised to cooperate with our company next time.
I accompanied Warren to leave, “Mr. Warren, the cooperation has obviously failed, why send it? Just now, the market price of the snuff bottle is conservatively estimated to be between 800, 000 and 1. 2 million.”
Warren was surprised. “You understand?”
“Well, I know a little bit. If the cooperation is not reached, we will lose money. You still send such an expensive gift.”
“Just because we don’t reach a cooperation this time doesn’t mean we don’t have a chance next time. We should take a long-term view in doing business. I don’t know what benefits the King Group has given Herman, and things can’t be undone. In Herman’s heart, I think the King Group is better, and I want to show him the sincerity of our Wilson Group.”
. “Mr. Warren, when will this effort pay off?”
“I don’t know. In fact, I don’t pay back every time I give. If I can calculate it so clearly, I am not a man but a god.”
Warren looked in a bad mood. “Mind if I smoke?”
“Be my guest.” I know he is in a terrible mood now.
“Sorry.” I think Kenneth’s sudden robbery of Warren’s project has something to do with me.
“It has nothing to do with you. Everything is variable except signing a contract. I have experienced this kind of thing a lot, don’t take it to heart.”
Warren reached out and “rubbed” my head, and became the gentle big brother before.
I hung my head and didn’t know what to say. Although I liked Kenneth, I was not happy that he got the project.
Knowing that business is so complicated, I still don’t like this method, just like robbing others of their beloved things.
Thinking that Warren’s efforts in the past few days have come to naught today, I have to comfort: “I think Mr. Herman likes that snuff bottle very much, and he will definitely cooperate with us next time.”
“Well, definitely, I thought I could win this project. It seems that we have to return home early.”
I can still feel some loss in Warren’s words.
“Then I’ll book a plane ticket back home tomorrow.”
“Yes.” Warren stopped talking and smoked quietly.

Although the Wilson Group has never cooperated with the King Group before, the two sides have always been out of the water. It has never happened that the King Group robbed the Wilson Group of resources. Is it because I refused to cooperate with the King Group that the president was unhappy?
If I were sane, I would never have made such a wrong decision. Working with the King Group has only advantages and no disadvantages.
At that time, Chris made me completely lose my mind. Not only did I lose the opportunity to cooperate, but I was even retaliated by the King Group and lost a big project.
My mood was very upset. “Chris, you met the president of the King Group, didn’t you?”
“Well, I’ve seen him.”
“What was he like?” I was very afraid of this president because of the contract. He is the one who got Chris.
“Why, it’s hard to answer?” I saw her thoughtful appearance, her pupils contracted, and her body was filled with coldness.
