He was well aware of the weight a director from Universal Group
carried.
Nash casually crossed his legs and said, âClarkke, donât think Iâm
unaware of what your company is up to. If you scheme against
Baroque again, I wonât hesitate to drive Innovate Collective to
bankruptcy.â
Clarkeâs eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this, but he quickly
suppressed his inner shock. It was impossible. They had executed
that plan flawlessly. There was no way an outsider could know about
Nash continued, âAlso, thereâs Splendor.â
After Duncan instigated the fire at Baroque, Nash had been busy
dealing with him and had no time to pay attention to Splendor and
Innovate Collective.
Clarke stared at Nash in disbelief. He suddenly felt that the person in
front of him was unfathomable.
âAre you the one behind Baroqueâs growth from a company with just
over a hundred employees to what it is today?â
âWhat do you think?â
âI understand. From now on, Innovate Collective will not compete with
Baroque in any way!â
âGood. Youâve got some sense.â Nash nodded.

Clarke lowered his head and quickly left the office. Once he was
outside, he realized that his back was soaked with sweat.
Lucas returned to his desk and called Hera.
âMs. Lewis, Iâm the new manager of Universal Groupâs Business
Department. Weâve decided to purchase chips from Baroque at
market price and are hoping for long-term cooperation!â
There was silence on the other end of the phone for several seconds.
It was not until Heraâs secretary called out to her that she snapped
back to reality. âAm I⦠Am I dreaming? Arenât you supposed to sign al
contract with Innovate Collective this afternoon?â
Lucas chuckled. âUntil the contract is signed, everything is uncertain.
Are you available now, Ms. Lewis? Iâll bring the contract over!â
âNo, no, Iâll come over!â Hera quickly replied.
âNo need, no need, Iâll come over!â Lucas insisted.
âBut weâre the supplier, and youâre the client. The client is everything,
so how can we make you come over?â Hera replied modestly.
Lucas had turned on the speakerphone. He looked at Nash awkwardl
and saw him nodding, so he agreed.
An hour later, Hera, dressed professionally in a suit and high heels,
arrived at the office while panting. âMr. Welsh, Iâm here!â
She was incredibly nervous. She had practically run the red lights on
the way here.
Lucas had already prepared two copies of the contract, both signed
Cupped this
and stamped. Hera immediately wrote down her name without even looking through the contract.

âMr. Welsh, Iâm really grateful to you. I came in such a hurry today and
didnât have time to prepare any gifts. How about I treat you to a meal
another day when I have time?â Hera said nervously.
Lucas sighed and smiled wryly. âNo need for gifts or meals. The
Inspection Department is strict about these things.â He glanced at
Nash sitting on the couch.
Hera noticed Lucasâ gaze and turned her head to see Nash leisurely
sipping tea.
âN-Nash⦠what are you doing here?â she asked.
âIâm an employee of Universal Group. Is it strange to see me here?â
Nash smiled.
Only then did Hera realize that Nash had helped her. He had not
forgotten his promise to her.
Nash stood up and said, âMr. Welsh, sorry for the interruption. Iâll take
my leave now.â
Lucas also stood up and said, âNo worries, Mr. Calcraft. Feel free to
come over for tea anytime!â
Nash then took Hera on a tour of the Inspection Department. Juan
and Lynn were not in the office, so Nash pulled Hera into his own
office and closed the soundproof door. He then drew the curtains.
Hera looked at Nash warily. âYou want to do it?â
Nash nodded seriously. âYes, I do.â
