Chapter 844

Sadie, on the other hand, maintained a blank and emotionless demeanor.

Nathan was proving to be a very persistent pest.

He had followed her all the way here from the Splendor Hotel. Just what was he up to?

In any case, she didn’t have the time or the energy to waste on him.

“If you have nothing else to say, Mr. Higgins, then you might as well take your leave. Otherwise, you have half an hour to tell me your purpose for coming here.”

Nathan’s smile froze.

His plan had been to carry on with his carefree attitude and perhaps tease her a little more, but she didn’t give him the chance.

As if to emphasize her point, Sadie cast a pointed glance at her watch.

“Your time starts now.”

Nathan’s lips parted, but he couldn’t find the words. He hadn’t expected her to be serious about the time limit.

He finally shelved his frivolous manner, and his entire expression turned earnest.

Sadie tipped her head at him once, then walked straight into her room.

Nathan touched his nose and followed her in with a wry smile.

The door clicked shut behind him.

Instead of sitting down, Nathan took a moment to look around and take in the interior decor.

When he was done, he found Sadie standing by the floor-to-ceiling window.

“I’m here to talk about the upcoming energy project in Beversea. If you want to maximize the benefits for Wall Group, your best choice is to cooperate directly with the Higgins family.”

Nathan’s tone carried a hint of arrogance as he continued,

“After all, all the shares involved in that project are owned by the Higgins family. The Johnson family…”

He looked to the side and scoffed in disdain.

@ ν?

“They’re basically just the middleman. Daren used the so-called marriage alliance between our families to convince Jarrett into letting him handle the matter on our behalf.”

Sadie turned to look at him then, her arms crossed over her chest. Her face didn’t betray any of her thoughts or emotions.

“Go on.”noveldrama

Nathan felt a slight surge of assurance at that vague sign of interest on her part.

He took two steps forward to close the distance between them.

“Ms. Hudson, if you change your mind and choose to do business with me instead—” He raised his index finger.
