Billionaire Fall in Love with Me after ONS

Chapter 30: Conflict



She was not a pushover. If Karen wanted to make trouble for her, she would fight back fiercely when necessary. Who would be afraid of her uncle who was just an assistant director?

Just as Suzanne returned to her seat from the bathroom, her phone in the drawer rang.

She took out her phone and checked the caller ID. When she saw the word “Edwiin” on the screen, her pupils contracted. She felt a little scared for no reason. After a moment of hesitation, she answered the phone and said in a low voice, “Edwiin.”

“Didn’t I ask for leave for you to rest at home?” Edwiin’s voice was extremely cold. Suzanne could feel the chill on the other end of the phone. He was a little angry because of her disobedience.

“I’m fine,” Suzanne said. Even though she was annoyed by what had just happened, she didn’t dare to show her emotion to Edwiin, “Edwiin, what’s wrong?”

“I’ll pick you up after work later and go home for dinner.” It was not a question, but a commanding tone.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“I……” Suzanne gripped the phone tightly, feeling nervous and uneasy.

She didn’t want to meet Edwiin again, but she was afraid that her refusal would annoy him and make him unhappy.

Just as Suzanne held her mobile phone and hesitated if she should tell Edwiin that she was going to drive back first, a polite female voice came from the other end of the phone. The voice was crisp.

“Mr. Morrison, Mr. Brown from ER Company is asking to see you. Are you free?”

Hearing those words, Suzanne was stunned. In the next moment, her heart nearly jumped out of her chest, feeling nervous to the extreme.

ER Company? Wasn’t that Vito’s company? Why did he want to see Edwiin?

Edwiin responded with a “hmm” on the other end of the line and asked the secretary to take them to the reception room first. He then said to Suzanne, “I’ll pick you up on time at five in the afternoon. Get ready.”

Faced with Edwiin’s rigid tone, Suzanne had no choice but to agree.

After hanging up the phone, she had been thinking about the words that the secretary had just told Edwiin. Her peace of mind was lost because of these words.

Meanwhile, in the Morrison’s Group……

Edwiin put his phone back into his pocket and glanced at the document on the desk with a cold look in his eyes. He sneered and threw the document into the bin, and stood up to leave the president’s office.

He was led to the reception room by Deirdre, his secretary.

When they saw Edwiin walk into the reception room, both of them, who had been sitting on the sofa, stood up at the same time.

The middle-aged man on the left was in his forties. He wore a pair of black glasses and did not look imposing.

The one on the right was only in his twenties. He was almost 6. 17 feet tall, handsome, and dignified.

“Mr. Morrison.” Vito walked toward Edwiin. He was almost as tall as Edwiin.

With a polite smile on his face, he stretched out his big hand which looked strong, “Nice to meet you.”

Edwiin’s footsteps paused slightly. His cold eyes only glanced at him before walking past him.

He sat on the sofa opposite them with an imposing manner and a lazy posture, like a sleeping lion.

Vito was a very proud man. When he found that he had been ignored, a ferocious look appeared on his face. He clenched his outstretched hand tightly, then opened it again.

When Vito turned around, he still had a polite smile on his face. He was no longer as scary as before. He sat back on the sofa and made tea for Edwiin.

“Mr. Morrison, we met at the party last time. I’m Keith Davies.”

The middle-aged man smiled, “Do you remember? You’ve read our business plan and expressed your interest.”

“Yes.” Edwiin nodded, but his face was expressionless.

Keith was overjoyed to hear this. He quickly took out a document from the file bag and handed it with both hands to the man who emanated chill, “Mr. Morrison, this is a revised version. Please take a look.”

Edwiin didn’t reach out to take the document. He just leaned lazily on the sofa and glanced at him. “Isn’t your ER Company too black-hearted? You ask your partner to invest more, but your company takes more profit?”

“Mr. Morrison, you must be joking. I believe you know our company has a reputation for integrity.” Vito came out to help at the right time, looking calm. “If you have a different idea about profit sharing, we can have a discussion.”

“How to discuss? Are you okay with any proportion of the share?” Edwiin stared at him coldly and retorted with a question.

Vito’s face froze, and then he smiled, “We can guarantee that we will give you a comfortable profit.”

“Then there’s nothing to talk about.”

Edwiin firmly refused and said flatly, “You know what kind of person I am. I will give a person whatever he is willing to give me. If he just wants to get benefits from me and doesn’t want to make any sacrifices,”

As he spoke, he stared at Vito and smiled coldly, “I’m not interested in dealing with this kind of people.”

Vito’s grip on the teacup tightened, but he did not dare to show any displeasure. Edwiin’s words made him very angry.

The President of the Morrison’s Group had expressed that at least he wanted to take half of the profits from this project. However, this project and the project implementation personnel are arranged by their ER Company. Why did Mr. Morrison dare to ask for so much?

“I heard that the cousin of your girlfriend, Miss Green, is the general manager of the Skyvokia Group?”

Edwiin said lightly, as if he hadn’t seen Vito’s sudden change of expression, and reminded them kindly, “the Skyvokia Group is also very interested in this project. Why don’t you consider cooperating with the Skyvokia Group?”

“Well……” Keith looked hesitant, with a forced smile on his face, “Our boss doesn’t have a good relationship with the Skyvokia Group, so it’s a little tricky.”

“So, you don’t get along?” Edwiin looked surprised as if he had just found out.

Keith awkwardly smiled. He was practically cursing in his heart.

The Skyvokia Group was very interested in this project, but when high-level management of the Skyvokia Group heard that this project was owned by ER Company, they did not even welcome people from ER, let alone discuss it together.

Otherwise, why would they have begged the man in front of them so humbly?

Edwiin had no interest in digging deeper into the grievances between ER Company and the Skyvokia Group.

He raised his hand to look at his watch and realized that 15 minutes had passed. He got up from the sofa and strode out without even glancing at them, “Sorry, time’s up.”

Keith got up and was about to catch up with Edwiin when Vito, who was next to him, stopped him directly. Vito’s face was a little ugly, and there was a hint of anger in his voice, “Forget it. He has no intention of cooperating with us at all.”

“But how can we find another partner besides the Morrison’s Group?” Keith sounded depressed, “The boss wants us to try our best to reach an agreement with Edwiin Morrison.”

“Didn’t you hear what he just said?” Vito glanced at the door of the reception room. When he saw that Edwiin had disappeared, he couldn’t help snorting coldly, “This guy wants to grab all our profits!”
