Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1303 Smooth Sailing

Roxanna held her breath. The man had long, copious eyelashes, an aquiline nose, and a strong jawline.

The man beside the handsome man adjusted his glasses and slowly stood up. "Might you be Miss Miller?"

Only then did Roxanna notice him, and she quickly put on a polite smile. "Yes. Might you be JL's representative?"

The man nodded, and he extended his hand, smiling. "Hi, I'm Simon. This is our company's president, Mr. Isaac Quill."

Roxanna looked at Isaac and extended her hand. She quickly shook it and let go, keeping some distance between them. She might look unreliable most of the time, but she would pull her own weight when it counted. She wouldn't embarrass the medical base.

Isaac slowly raised his head and stood up. Roxanna watched as he unfurled to his full height, and her jaw dropped a little as she stared at him. He's two heads higher than I am.

Roxanna thought she had a good height. Six-foot-six was already pretty tall for girls, but this guy was two heads taller than she was.

"Hello, Miss Miller. I'm Isaac, JL's president." Isaac smiled, as if he didn't notice Roxanna gaping.

Roxanna snapped out of it and smiled. "Please, sit." Don't embarrass everyone, Roxanna. Go all out.

Nicole was munching on her snack while listening to the conversation, and her eyes were on the screen. Roxanna was doing better than she expected.

Isaac cut to the chase before Roxanna could settle in her seat. "Sixty-forty split. Sixty for you, forty for us, but we'll be signing a long-term contract. Very long term, and we demand exclusive rights."

Roxanna froze for a moment, but she snapped out of it. At the same time, Nicole spoke into her earphone.

"What do you need us to do?"

"What do you need us to do?" Roxanna smiled, repeating what Nicole said, but she was already thinking about what she would say next.

Isaac handed a file to Roxanna and slowly said, "We'll need you to develop makeup products for acne- prone skin, sensitive skin, dry skin, and oily skin. All fronts, so to speak. This calls for a long-term collaboration."

His eyes were on Roxanna. Earlier, he was told that the main person in charge would not be the one showing up. At first, he thought they were looking down on them, but judging from this lady's nervous and serious attitude, he knew he had underestimated how much importance the other party put on them.

Roxanna asked, "You said we'd have the patents, but you'll have the exclusive right to use them?"

Isaac nodded. "Yes. If we become partners, I'll make sure both of us come out winners." He was confident in his abilities. If the medical base pulled its weight, he would make sure they both could

profit.

Roxanna looked down and mused over it. Nicole wasn't saying anything. She was probably waiting for Roxanna to make a call. "We can do that, but we hope you won't forget your promise. We'll have to see the contract once it's drafted before we'll sign."

That was an alright answer. First, Roxanna held the initiative, and second, she protected the company's interests.

Isaac cocked his eyebrow. It was surprising that Roxanna would come up with that answer, but he liked working with people like her. "Very well. Here's to a happy partnership." Isaac slowly stood up and extended his hand. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Roxanna looked at his beautiful hand. She slowly stood up and held it gently, then she let go and smiled.
