âWait a moment. I still need a few days to think about this. We also need to wait a little longer for the payment of the booking fee.â âOur contract specifies that if the booking fee is delayed, we will charge a certain amount of penalty fee.â
âWhat?â Hannieâs eyes widened. âThe penalty fee is usually over 10 million per day.â Her eyes widened even more. She couldnât afford such consequences, which meant that she had hit a wall this time.
âMiss Quins, although I donât know why you participated in this bidding, if you donât have the intention of acquisition, you can give this opportunity to companies that truly have acquisition intentions, such as the Presgrave Group.â
âBut didnât they give up?â
âIn fact, our expected acquisition price did not reach 50 billion. If you talk to the representatives of the Presgrave Group and give up the opportunity, our company will. negotiate with them again.â
âAre you sure?â Hannieâs restless mind finally found a way out.
âYes, but itâs up to you to negotiate with Presgrave Group. We hope that you can negotiate with them sincerely because your behavior today may have angered them.â
After everyone else left, she sat in the seat with a pale face and held her head. Darn it! What have I done? This is f*cked up! âMiss Quins, should we inform the president of the company about this matter?â
âNo, do not inform my dad! We canât let my family know about this.â Hannie was immediately exasperated.
âWell, what should we do now? Are you really going to beg the people from the Presgrave Group? If you donât give up this opportunity. within three days, our company will have to pay a penalty fee.â
Hannie wanted to cry. She only wanted to force Jared to see her, but she didnât want to get herself into trouble. Now, she had to beg him instead. She felt like this was a trap he deliberately set up to trip her.
And she had stupidly fallen into it. She immediately took out the business card they had just exchanged and found the representativeâs card from the Presgrave Group. She dialed the phone number on the card. âHello, who is this?â
âHello, Iâm Hannie. I have something to discuss with you.â âWhat can I help you with, Miss Quins?â
âWell, Iâve decided to give up the acquisition opportunity to your company. The RY company delegation also expressed their willingness to renegotiate the cooperation. I wonder if your company⦠is willing to renegotiate, though?â Hannie asked tentatively.
âI need to report this to President Presgrave Miss Quins, please wait for my message.â âOkay, Iâll wait for your call.â She was eager and even hoped to talk to Jared alone about this matter.
At this moment, a car was heading toward Presgrave Group, and Mr. Stark dialed Jaredâs phone number. âPresident Presgrave, Hannie fell for the trap. Now, sheâs asking us to re-negotiate with RY company.â
âDonât bother with her, Jared said coldly.
âOkay.â Hannie was pacing back and forth in the meeting room as she anxiously waited for a response from the Presgrave Group. She regretted her decision and knew that if Presgrave Group didnât take over, she would not only have to pay the deposit but also a penalty fee.
However, she felt that her grandfather would teach her a lesson for this and that her father would remove her inheritance rights. Therefore, the most urgent matter now was to quickly resolve this issue and not let it spread to the family company. Otherwise, she would become a laughingstock. Just then, her phone on the conference table rang, and she almost ran over to answer it.
âHello!â âMiss Quins, Iâm sorry to inform you that President Presgrave has lost interest in this acquisition project.â
