Chapter 1115 Force Her (4)

"Why does he have the right to keep me from going out?"

Elliot not only forbade her from leaving, but also stationed someone at the front gate who looked like a tough guy. Rose couldn't leave, and Leah was forced to stay as well.

Rose stayed in her room, seething with anger.

This was clearly a form of house arrest!

Elliot was really something! He actually used this method to confine her!

After staying in the room for a while, feeling frustrated and bored, Rose still didn't see Elliot's figure. He seemed to come home late and leave early every day since he left her room yesterday. She had no idea what he was doing.

Rose couldn't go anywhere outside of the villa. Even inside the villa, she had servants following her or Leah around everywhere they went. They were being watched closely by them all times which made Rose more and more unhappy. Finally she couldn't help but call her lawyer.

Meanwhile in his office, Elliot sat with pursed lips listening to his assistant on the other end of the phone line saying, "... Mr. Harper, are you there? Mr. Harper?"

The assistant trembled with fear after witnessing such a big scene at the airport yesterday. He basically saw everything from beginning till end, so when it came down to Mr. Harper's relationship with Miss Russell, it felt like walking on thin ice; if anything went wrong, it wouldn't be anyone else who would suffer but him as an assistant.

Who knew that Mr. Ingram would show up at their company this morning forcing him to put through Elliott's call.

Elliot narrowed his eyes slightly before making an affirmative sound and said, "Let him come in." Then he casually put down his files on hand. The office door opened and Lawrence's smiling face appeared before him again; Elliot squinted once again as if suppressing some kind of storm brewing within himself.

"Mr. Harper, we meet again," Lawrence greeted cheerfully without any trace of their confrontation at airport yesterday showing on his face nor any marks indicating that he got beaten up; instead appearing relaxed and comfortable while walking towards Elliot's desk.

Elliot glanced briefly at his assistant, who got the hint, walked out and closed the door. Then Elliot spoke quietly, "What do you want from me?" Lawrence chuckled meaningfully. "Didn't we agree yesterday? I'm here for cooperation."

Elliot raised an eyebrow, showing some complex emotions in his expression.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Lawrence's appearance almost made Elliot unable to resist punching him once again

The person who tried to take Rose away was right in front of Elliot. Just thinking about it made him unable to remain indifferent.

Lawrence was currently his biggest opponent, not because he was particularly powerful, but because he held a special place in Rose's heart that made him more important than her husband who she didn't acknowledge.

Elliot's face turned cold with a hint of hostility when he thought about Lawrence. However, when he glanced over at Lawrence, he quickly composed himself.

Since they were discussing cooperation and Lawrence had come to him personally, Elliot couldn't refuse.

During the next half hour of their business discussion, Elliot spoke seriously and professionally with Lawrence about various cooperation-related issues. This impressed Lawrence as before coming here; he thought that Elliot would intentionally target or outright reject him.

He didn't expect that Elliot took his work so seriously.

Some specific information is in the conference room. Wait for me while I go get it," said Elliot politely and earnestly as they reached a crucial point in their conversation before standing up and leaving.

After Elliot left, Lawrence received a

1.n

call from Khali Khalil briefly explained some details regarding their collaboration along with what steps would be taken next. As Lawrence listened while looking towards the door calmly at first but then suddenly became incredulous after hearing something unexpected. "What... Khalil? Are you trying to get something for nothing?"

Khalil sat on his chair spinning around while facing outwards towards large green plants outside through floor-to-ceiling windows feeling somewhat relaxed despite being much younger than his serious expression suggested. "Hmm... that's what I mean. Can you do it, my godfather?"

Lawrence furrowed his brows for an instant and then sighed helplessly. "Elliot isn't stupid; there's no guarantee that he'll agree."

Khalil rubbed his chin. "That's why I asked you to stay back home since I believe in your abilities; can you handle this?"

Lawrence felt helpless again but gritted his teeth since even such a young child like Khalil had such courage so why should he hesitate? He quickly decided on an agreement after discussing some more details and requirements with Khalil before hanging up.

Not long after hanging up, someone pushed open the door from outside. It was Elliott followed by the assistant walking into the office where they resumed discussions without any change of expression between them except perhaps for a hint of amusement on both sides' faces as they looked each other over once again.

Elliot felt that the smile on Lawrence's face was too dazzling, making people want to tear it off. His expression involuntarily sank, and his gaze flickered past Lawrence's hand holding the phone.

The assistant who followed behind

also walked in and closed the door casually, sitting down silently beside Elliot. The atmosphere was really е strange. He didn't expect Mr. Harper to actually talk with Mr. Ingram for half an hour and even let him go get some documents before continuing their discussion on this S

collaboration.

The two of them looked like they could start fighting at any moment, how could they sit together and discuss cooperation?

The assistant shrank his neck and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, almost bursting into tears.

The atmosphere was too quiet. The assistant gathered up his courage before speaking up first to break the silence.

"Mr. Ingram, this is our project plan for this collaboration. Please take a look at it first while I briefly introduce you to our situation..."

He explained things similar to what Elliot had said earlier but in more detail while Lawrence occasionally nodded indicating he understood.

"... Our company has been wanting to collaborate with your company for a long time now and we finally found an opportunity this time around. We want to buy that piece of land belonging under your company." The assistant glanced at Elliot as he finished stating their request.

That piece of land they were

9.

interested in buying was located within Australia's wealthiest state; if Elliot wanted to open up Australia's market, then he would have had started by purchasing land there so as to build branded hotels upon them which would allow Harper Group to gradually expand throughout Australia.

Elliot had considered it for quite some time before deciding on that goal; however, unexpected events occurred, causing his plans stagnate or worse.

And since RH owned the rights over that piece of land usage, Elliot planned on collaborating with RH.

Lawrence naturally knew about Elliot's plan. Since Lawrence sent him here specifically so as negotiate with him, the former showed enough trust towards the latter.

"How much are you willing to offer, Mr. Harper?"
