Fatal Love：CEO, please let me go

Grace seemed to have expected that she would ask this question. She said matter-of-factly, “I want to check the projection equipment again to avoid any problems. Otherwise, none of us can bear this responsibility.”

Hearing her say this, Adele did not say much. She stepped out of the conference room and walked in the direction of the archives room.

Generally, some secret documents in the company had to be placed in the archives room for unified management. This way, they could prevent commercial secrets from leaking and ensure the safety of a lot of information.

This was also why they could only go to get the proposal when the foreign guests were about to arrive.

When she arrived at the archives room, Adele made her identity clear. After signing the document, she got the proposal and then rushed to the conference room.

This trip took a lot of time. When Adele rushed to the conference room, the foreign guest representatives had just arrived and had not yet taken their seats. The scene was a bit chaotic.

Adele stood at the door and glanced around but did not see Damon. Only then did she secretly sigh in relief.

Sherry, Jane, and the company representatives were inviting the foreign guests to take their seats. Adele carried the documents and walked inside. She only wanted to distribute them to everyone as soon as possible and did not pay attention to the surroundings.

She took a few steps, but before she could reach the conference table, she suddenly tripped and fell forward.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“Bang!” With a bang, she fell to the ground, and the stack of documents in her arms was flung away, scattering in all directions.

The people who were whispering to each other heard the sound and looked over.

“Okay, just follow my arrangements.”

Damon turned his head and told Ben. He walked to the door of the conference room and turned around. He saw Adele lying on the ground like a dog gnawing on mud. The documents were scattered everywhere.

When he saw the foreign delegates with different expressions, his face instantly sank.

Early in the morning, Ben reported to him that Adele had come back to work. He did not expect her to give him such a big surprise.

The people in the conference room seemed to be still. Adele lay on the ground, her cheeks burning hot, and she was completely stunned.

Suddenly, there was the sound of leather shoes coming from the side, and the sound was getting closer and closer. He walked to her side and stopped.

Damon bent down slightly and stared at her slightly. His voice was cold, but there was a thin layer of anger. “When are you going to get up?”

Hearing this voice, Adele seemed to wake up from a dream. She immediately got up from the ground and began to pick up the documents on the ground in a hurry.

This was too embarrassing! Adele wanted to find a hole in the ground and hide immediately.

She bit her lips and picked up the documents in a panic. She lowered her head and began to distribute the proposal.

Only then did the discussion in the conference room slowly start to calm down.

Adele blushed and forced herself to calm down. When she walked to the side of a foreign representative, someone suddenly looked at her. He smiled at her and thanked her in broken Chinese. “Thank you.”

Hearing this, Adele’s nervous mood suddenly eased a little. She smiled at him and blurted out a reply in French, “No need to thank me.”

Hearing that she was speaking French, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the foreign representative. He smiled and asked, “You can speak French?”

“I learned a little when I was in university.” Adele smiled and nodded.

When she was in university, she had studied a second major. Her main course was French and Japanese. Although it was not authentic, simple communication was still not a problem.

When the representative of the foreign guests heard this, he nodded at her with appreciation.

“Are your legs okay?” he asked.

Adele followed his gaze and looked down. When she saw her red knees, she smiled embarrassedly. “It’s okay. Thank you for your concern.”

When the two exchanged a few simple words in French, it attracted the attention of everyone in the conference room.

Damon looked up at the woman’s reddish cheeks and bright eyes, and his heart sank unconsciously.

He did not expect that she could speak French. This really gave him a surprise.

On the other side, Grace looked at Adele who was communicating with the foreign guest, and the jealousy in her heart slowly turned into anger.

Originally, she had even put in a lot of effort to understand the information of the foreign guests and even recited a few words in French urgently. Unexpectedly, it was all useless. It was Adele who had communicated well with the other party!

After Adele distributed the proposal, she retreated to the side and planned to leave.

Unexpectedly, Damon suddenly turned his head and looked at her.

Feeling the man’s gaze, Adele pretended to be calm and moved her gaze away.

Seeing her reaction, Damon frowned a little and cleared his throat. “Adele, you stay and cooperate with others to make a meeting record.”

She knew some French, so naturally, she was more suitable to make a meeting record than Sherry and Jane who did not know French.

When Adele heard this, she was stunned. She reacted and nodded. “Okay.”

Seeing Adele stay, Grace felt uncomfortable and sat down next to her, not leaving.

The meeting officially began. They directly cut straight to the point and began to talk about the specific cooperation projects.

Adele listened to it with some difficulty, but fortunately, the meeting had been equipped with a translator. After recording the key points and listening to the translator again, the general content was recorded.

More than an hour later, the meeting went into the last negotiation segment. The atmosphere in the room seemed to have suddenly become warm. In order to protect their own interests, the representatives of both sides were battling each other openly and secretly.

“This time, we came to River City with full sincerity. Our company’s current technology is already able to reach the top of the industry. The price we offered is final.”

The person sent by the company to negotiate was Director Foster of the marketing department. After a few confrontations, his strength was obviously inferior to the other party.

Seeing that he was in a disadvantaged position, he turned to look at Damon beside him and secretly asked for help.

Damon looked serious, and his eyes were calm as if there was no fluctuation. He said unhurriedly, “We have seen your company’s sincerity, but this price is not ideal for us. You should know very well that we have more choices. We chose you because we have more long-term cooperation space. I think this price should not be your bottom line. At least, it should be lowered by this.”

As he spoke, he stretched out three fingers.

The foreign representatives looked at each other, obviously hesitating.

“I will give you time to think about it. This is also the final price we can accept.”

The man’s tone was gentle, but he did not lose his aura. His eyes were sharp and accurate. He could guess the other party’s bottom line with just a word of probing. His goal was clear and his attitude was tough. He did not give the other party any chance to bargain.

Obviously, he had already done his research and figured out their situation.

He raised his hand and motioned for his subordinates to be silent. He gave the foreign guests time to consider.

Under the gaze of the quiet crowd, the foreign delegates talked in a low voice, as if they had slowly finalized something.

Finally, they nodded and accepted it.

Adele looked at Damon’s steadfast side profile, and for some reason, her heart beat faster.

She had seen his appearance when he was working before, but she had never seen him forcing the other party to back down in a few words. Unexpectedly, he was far more powerful than she had imagined.

As if sensing her gaze, Damon turned his head slightly and looked directly in Adele’s direction.
