Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 705: Chapter 701: No Need to Prepare, Just Refuse Directly

Ever since Richelle Dunn, Hugo Camrey, and Vanessa teamed up to obtain the most important core intelligence that day, Richelle hadn’t been so busy.

Since Roy Lewis had specifically reminded her, after dinner, she nestled in the living room sofa and seriously read the documents on Lodiva Group, using her presidential authority to access them.

She read until around nine o’clock and went to coax the kids to sleep. Afterward, she saw Roy Lewis sitting on the sofa, drinking tea.

“Have you finished your work?”

Roy Lewis shook his head, “No, but we had a fight, and everyone is taking a break now.”

Roy didn’t deliberately hide his position as Mr. Lewis, but he never explicitly mentioned it either.

Richelle never asked about deeper topics, only the surface ones.

“Do you want some snacks?”

Roy Lewis patted the sofa, gesturing for her to sit down.

“No need, just tell me if you’ve figured out any issues?”

Richelle sat down, “I think their comeback this year is targeting me.”

Roy Lewis raised his eyebrows, “Oh? Tell me, how did you come to that conclusion?”

Richelle pointed to the content in the documents, “I’ve looked at the previous negotiation records, and each time there was new progress, but the last time, they overturned everything that had been agreed upon before. Actually, it wasn’t just because the other party was indecisive, but because you discovered that the acquisition was not worthwhile.”

Roy Lewis looked at her with interest, “So why do you think they’re targeting you?”

Richelle analyzed, “Because they think I’m not you. You only saw through their tricks at the last moment last year, and I must not have that ability, so they want to fish in troubled waters and ask for a good price!”

After her analysis, Richelle looked at Roy Lewis.

“What do you think, am I right?”

Roy Lewis nodded, “It’s basically correct. So how do you plan to deal with it tomorrow?”

Richelle didn’t even have to think about it.

“There’s no need to prepare, just directly refuse.”

Roy Lewis was a bit curious, “Aren’t you afraid of a bad reputation? Not afraid of the board members gossiping?”

The acquisition case looks very promising on the surface in terms of profits and future prospects, so if Richelle directly refuses it…

She might be criticized by the board members.

Richelle blinked at him, “Of course, I’ll think of a way to come up with evidence to shut those board members up.”

Roy Lewis immediately understood that the Lodiva Group wanted to use some false accounts to fool others, and they might get away with that.

But if they wanted to deceive Margareth, they would end up with the embarrassing fate of losing even their pants!

“Alright, since you’ve already figured it out, I won’t worry about it. Do whatever you want tomorrow.”

Then, the next afternoon, Lodiva Group sent a team of ten, showing they came with great “sincerity”.

However, Richelle, surprisingly, didn’t even bring her ever-versatile special assistant. Instead, she only brought the director and deputy director of the development department and a secretary to help her record and organize the meeting.

Just four people in total.

When Mr. Sean from the Lodiva Group saw Richelle’s delegation, he rejoiced secretly.

Originally, he had been quite wary of Nathan Caroule.

But now that even Nathan wasn’t there, he felt his victory was guaranteed.

After a round of customary greetings and compliments, Mr. Sean personally handed over a large stack of documents to Richelle.

“Mr. Dunn, these are some of our company’s accounts and the conditions under which we want to become part of your company, please review them.”

Richelle made a sound of acknowledgment, “Please also send an electronic version to my secretary, so we can have a good look.”

These original materials were sent by Mr. Sean to Nathan Caroule last week.

This version was said to be an improved version, so Richelle and the two directors needed to read it again.

Mr. Sean had given Richelle and the others ten to twenty minutes for reading, but Richelle read extremely fast and started asking Mr. Sean questions in less than five minutes.

Mr. Sean responded smoothly, and the two chatted back and forth for more than ten minutes before the two directors finished reading the lengthy documents.

Seeing that the two directors had finished, Richelle asked,

“Mr. Kingston, Mr. Bailes, do you have any comments or opinions?”

Mr. Kingston spoke first, “I think, from Mr. Sean’s proposal, the prospects of our cooperation seem quite promising.”

Mr. Bailes also agreed.

“I concur with Mr. Kingston’s opinion. Of course, there are still many details and frameworks to discuss and improve, but the future of the cooperation looks optimistic.”

After both directors finished speaking, a look of joy appeared on Mr. Sean’s face.

“Mr. Dunn, what is your opinion?”

Richelle glanced at her two directors, thought for a moment, and then spoke slowly.

“I think, Mr. Sean doesn’t really want to cooperate with us.”

Mr. Sean’s smile instantly froze, but soon, he recovered his grin and asked,

“Mr. Dunn, I don’t know where I’ve done something inadequate or wrong that makes you have this misunderstanding?”

Richelle knew he wouldn’t tell the truth, but she didn’t need him to say anything real either.

Regardless of whether he says it or not, the outcome is the same.

“Sorry, I have to refuse your proposal. Today, I appreciate all the trouble you and everyone else went through coming here!”
