109 up the glass of wine and a sniff.
After taking a small sip, he said, âMs. Davidson, I underestimated . Youâre surprisingly capable.â Knowing that Taylor was referring to her getting drunk to boost Ansoftâs popularity, Mikayla smiled. âItâs nothing out of the blue. Itâs normal for wealthy people like you to look down on others â
âYou talk as if have been through hardships.â Taylor clicked his tongue.
Unabashedly, he continued, âThe problem here is you look too pretty. People canât help but wonder if thereâs a brain behind that pretty face of yours â
For moment, Mikayla didnât quite know how to respond.
âMr. Blue has a unique way of complimenting others.â
âWell, you deserve my compliment.â
Taylor, seemingly unaffected by Mikaylaâs sarcasm.
He smirked and asked, âTell me more about the show you put on last night. Are you really getting abandoned by Jerome, or are you using it as an opportunity to accuse him?â
Fully aware that Taylor was just being nosy, Mikayla had no intention of satisfying his curiosity.
âSorry, thatâs a private matter. I have no obligations to disclose.â
Taylor didnât seem offended.
He leaned back lazily and let out a wicked smile.
âMs. Davidson, I now believe in your determination to take down Bernhal Enterprise. Letâs have a good time working together.â
It seemed like the collaboration with Taylor was confirmed.
Problem is, Mikayla didnât have 100 million to join Mocato Investments right away.
Taylor wasnât surprised.
âYou can owe me the money for now. We can deduct it from the projects and dividends you manage to secure in the future.â
Mikayla hesitated for a bit.
âIâll join next month.â
There was only a little over ten days until her grandmotherâs birthday.
Besides that, she also had to settle her divorce.
Plus, she had to follow up on the contracts other matters at Ansoft.
She could only join next month after sorting out everything.
âSure, Iâll be waiting.â
Just as they were done, their meal was served.
Several waiters assisted them in everything, from deboning the fish to serving soup.
The service provided was impeccable and it made Mikayla feel like a queen.
Taylor was true hedonist.
Wherever he went, there would be guaranteed all kinds of luxury and extravagance.
âMr. Blue, havenât you ever thought about being a little more lowâprofile?â Mikayla asked.
âWhy should you do that when you can enjoy life?â Taylor countered.
Mikayla thought that was quite reasonable.
After finishing the meal with Taylor, Mikayla went back to Ansoft again.
Betty joyfully showed her the surge in orders for Ansoft.
âMikayla, this is all thanks to you!â
She didnât expect Mikayla to turn an incident that would have made her a laughingstock into a perfect marketing opportunity in such a short time.
Overnight, Ansoft was no longer in danger.
Mikayla smiled.
âItâs mainly because of your help that it went well.â
None of them hesitated nor wavered.
They took action at the right time, thatâs why things went so smoothly.
The two celebrated the success happily with some wine.
Suddenly, Betty remembered something.
âJohnny recently took over a liquor, distillery. Heâs trying to buy over the media to create buzz for it. I reckon heâs probably trying to compete with us.
Mikayla frowned.
âBetty, you need to watch out for him.â
She wasnât afraid of competing openly, rather she was worried that Johnny would resort to dirty tricks out of jealousy.
Betty said, âRest assured. Being married to him for so long, I know all his tricks. I wonât let him take Chapter 10:
advantage .â
The two chatted for a while when Mikaylaâs Whatsapp received a notification.
She checked the message.
âDid you find me a doctor?â
