Chapter 1842
With a courteous smile, Brodie Moreno remarked, “Congratulations, Mr.
Mitchell, on securing another significant project.
In the future, cooperating more with our Moreno Group could benefit both our companies, don’t you think?”
As if noticing Hannah for the first time, he then asked in confusion, “And who might this be?”
Bryson gazed at Hanna and said, “This is my fiancee.
”
Brodie’s surprise was fleeting, replaced by a smile.
“Ah, Miss Moore! Your charm precedes you.
Now I see it’s well-deserved.
”
“You’re too kind,” Hannah replied graciously.
“I’ll leave you two to your conversation.
”
Bryson watched her depart before turning back to Brodie.
“Anything else?”
“Mr.
Mitchell, there’s another opportunity for cooperation.
Are you interested?” Brodie asked, taking a sip of wine.
“Now that we’ve decided to join forces, I should be honest with you,” he continued.
The Moreno Group sought a cooperation agreement with the Jenkins Group, but they had a pre-existing commitment.
The Moreno Group invested a hundred million annually for 50% ownership, while the Jenkins Group invested eight hundred million.
Unexpectedly, the Jenkins Group terminated the agreement, causing substantial losses for the Moreno Group.
They were looking to recover those funds.
Brodie aimed to win over the Mitchell Group through this collaboration, confident that their backing would shield them from the Jenkins Group’s challenges.
Bryson squinted thoughtfully.
“Mr.
Moreno, are you suggesting I take on the Jenkins Group for you?”
“That’s impossible!” Brodie exclaimed, setting down his glass.
“Your company dwarfs ours.
We seek your partnership for your strength.
If we recover the funds, I propose giving you 50% of the 3 billion withdrawn by the Jenkins Group.
”
The offer was enticing, but Bryson knew high returns often entailed high risks.
Brodie’s pitch didn’t entirely convince him.
Bryson swirled his drink.
“Mr.
Moreno, recovering three billion isn’t straightforward.
The Moreno and Jenkins Groups are now rivals.
We’re wary of getting entangled.
”
He turned the question back to Brodie.
Brodie smiled, unfazed.
Despite the Mitchell family’s business prowess, they lacked the cunning of the Jenkins Group.
Bryson was his key ally, though Brodie considered other potential allies first.
“Mr.
Mitchell, you’ve misunderstood,” Brodie clarified.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
“I didn’t intend for you to get directly involved.
I simply hope you’ll consider a lasting partnership.
We can discuss terms later.
”
Bryson gave him a cold glance.
“Mr.
Moreno, you have a solid plan, but unfortunately, I’m not short on funds.
”
With that, he turned and departed, disregarding Brodie’s expression as he left.
A glint of cunning crossed Brodie’s eyes as he watched Bryson walk away.
