Chapter 83 Beyond my expectations
Chapter 83 Beyond my expectations
Sarah knew that she was played. But the people around her can’t take jokes. If she gets too close to
him now, tomorrow the entire Andrew group will erupt in rumors about her.
Is she worthy of Andrew?
Sarah walked quietly behind them and didn’t want to attract anyone’s attention.
All these people were able assistants of Andrew. Her responsibility at the office was to serve tea and
drinks and over here, she was totally useless.
Andrew walked in front and was discussing with the new partner of S City.
“I’ve already heard about how capable Director Andrew is. You took over the group at a young age and
are extremely talented. Today with our conversation and initial interaction, I can truly attest to your Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
abilities.”
“You’re too kind, Mr. Brown.”
Andrew doesn’t care for such words of praise but he felt that there were reasons to continue with the
discussion.
“No, Director Bask, you were the right-hand man of Chairman Bask at a young age. He certainly was a
good judge of character, what a talent!”
Mr. Brown of S City kept praising Andrew. He utterly respected the abilities of Andrew.
However, Andrew was calm and didn’t answer.
“Then, Director Bask, does it mean that we’ve successfully met and we can continue to discuss the
details of our cooperation?”
Mr. Brown was extremely satisfied with his new partner like a young man who just married a wife and
desperately wants to copulate with her.
Once they partner with the Andrew group, they will certainly profit from it.
As long as you are willing to gamble, dare to gamble, then you won’t be disappointed.
Andrew could see his urgency, nodded and Sandy came with an important document.
When he opened the file, it was the details of the partnership and details of the profit sharing.
The detailed the interests of the Andrew group and other companies. It was only a difference in the
name. Had it been another company to partner with the Andrew group, it would have been the same
terms.
To any businessmen, there was no eternal friendship, there are only eternal benefits. What Andrew
need to do, was to maximize the benefits to the Andrew group.
“Well…”
Mr. Brown’s expression changed when he saw the contract. He wasn’t as enthusiastic as before.
“Why Mr. Brown? Not used to it?”
Andrew can easily see the main issue with a glance. In this world, there are plenty who are dying to
partner with the Andrew group. He has the biggest say and authority to determine the terms.
As to the profits, his position is eighty-twenty, obviously, he will secure more for himself. A lot of
companies will not take such risks.
“Director Bask, isn’t this too little?”
Mr. Brown looked at the contract and tossed it aside.
“Eighty-twenty means eighty-twenty. You can have fifty-fifty with others. You fifty and the other party
fifty. But with me, it’s a deal worth ten billion. That’s eight billion for me and two billion for you. Do you
want eighty-twenty or fifty-fifty? You decide.”
Though it sounded exaggerated, with the Andrew group, it’s totally possible and not a hard thing to
achieve.
The Andrew group could earn hundreds of millions with one project.
Under the group there was a wide range of businesses, there were absolutely no worries about cash
flow.
“Director Bask, can you just increase ten percent? Just ten percent?”
Mr. Brown was very conflicted. This arrangement was possible but under the current terms, it meant
that he can recoup his investments within a year but it also meant that he would not have any income
for the year. In comparison, it was pure profits for the Andrew group.
In other words, he would work for free for a year for the Andrew group, he will only profit after a year.
“Sandy, give the details to Mr. Brown, we’re going back.”
Andrew didn’t mention anything about the profit sharing and as to what Mr. Brown said about the
additional ten percent, he didn’t even bat an eyelid.
“Mr. Brown, consider it carefully and contact us if you find it acceptable.”
“Okay, okay.”
Mr. Brown was disappointed to see Andrew leaving, even if it was not to discuss about the partnership,
he should entertain him properly. This was certainly an extraordinary person.
The group of people followed Andrew and left without saying much.
Sarah walked behind and when she was entering the car, she was reassigned to another car.
“Oh, I’ll take the other car.”
Sarah took a peek at him and she realized that this man’s negotiation skills were impressive.
Just like a moment ago, in just a few short sentences he was able to resolve the partnership and he did
not beat around the bush.
Someone who could convince a businessman, who was twenty to thirty years his senior, to accept
Andrew Group’s terms was no ordinary feat.
Vigorous and decisive. This was what Sarah learned from him.
Andrew casually sits at the back and opens a bottle of wine, “Have a drink?”
Sarah rejected without a thought, “No, I don’t want. I don’t like the smell of it.”
Sarah sat properly behind and saw that his expression didn’t change. He lowered his head to drink the
wine. She asked, “Just now you were very impressive. Will Mr. Brown sign the contract?”
Andrew looked at her, “What do you mean?”
He drank a glass of red wine.
“I didn’t mean anything.” Sarah thought that she had misspoken and apologized, “I’m sorry, I don’t
doubt your ability, I really feel that you are very capable. Your capabilities were beyond my
expectations.”
“I’m asking why couldn’t you understand?”
Andrew asked again coldly. But what he said towards the end… did he mean that he was great?”
There was a hint of arrogance in his expression.
Sarah pondered, she thought that work was the accumulation of successful tasks. But today, she
realized that the Andrew group was different compared to other companies.
Over here, one should not engage in frivolous chit chat and just work steadily.
She didn’t talk much either but still felt empty and confused.
She also found that she spoke to Andrew the most.
“…I didn’t notice these and you are aware of it. You don’t let Sandy assign any projects to me and I
have no chance of experiencing these.”
Sarah knows that at the office, all she does was to serve him tea or relay some messages. Everyone
will get lazy when given the chance. When that happens, a person will start to deteriorate. Her situation
now was exactly the result of Andrew’s spoiling her.
Andrew placed the glass down and looked deeply into her. He can’t help but want to kiss her and pinch
her!
As he thought, he did it. The taste of the wine lingered on both of them.
Sarah couldn’t avoid the sudden kiss and was stunned with her eyes wide open.
