Chapter 384 - THE CONTRACT (2/2)
Han Luo tilted her head. ”Is it? If other company Presidents find out that their children are being ruined by your son, will it be good for you, your company, and your son?”
President Luther Smith gritted his teeth and glared at her. ”Young lady, are you threatening me?”
It wasn't that he didn't know about his son's wrongdoing. He just ignored whatever he did. He had money and power. He could easily hide his track.
Who would have thought that she would turn the table and try to blackmail him?
He promised that he would never get fooled by her innocent look.
Han Luo smiled professionally. She learned it from Johnathan who was a salesman. ”I'm just giving you an offer. You are a wise man, president Smith. I know you know what is best for you, your family, and your company. A little shop won't be worth than your reputation, will it?”
”You…” President Luther Smith's eyebrows twitched. He took those pictured and tore them apart.
”I still have the negative and original doc.u.ments. The ones I gave you are copies.” Han Luo told him.
Seeing his cold eyes, she said, ”Please don't be mad at me, President Smith. It wasn't me who was shoving a bad rumored shop to someone innocent. If words went out after we bought this shop, I would be the one be in jail and you know full well how bad my relationship with your son is. I hope he will stay away from me and my family in the future.” Han Luo's tone was sweeter than honey and words were more poisonous than the snake. ”Now, please sign these papers before reading them thoroughly.” She gave him another file with a smile.
When President Smith snatched the file and started reading, she said, ”Don't take it into your heart, President Smith. We are all businessmen. We have to think about profit and loss.”
As per the contract, he would have to take care of the drug mess and renovate the shop just as Han Luo told him to. All the expenses will be bear by the Smith Corporation.
President Luther Smith signed a devil's contract. There was no doubt about it.
”Thus, we have nothing to worry about. I want Thomas and Isla to supervise the shop while they renovate,” Han Luo instructed.
”Okay!” Isla nodded.
”Leave it to us,” Thomas assured her.
Han Luo looked at the clock and changed the subject, ”I think the dinner has been served. Let me check.”
After she left, Isla whispered, ”I think she blackmailed President Smith.”
”Just what could it be that President Smith agreed to help us this much? What did Miss Han gather against him?” Nancy bit her nail.
”It must be something illegal and it's related to the shop.” Thomas commented, ”I never expected Miss Han to take this opportunity to get such a huge profit. I underestimated her.”
”Same goes for me. I didn't think that she would do such a thing.” Nancy smiled. ”I'm glad my extra work paid off. I thought I had done it unnecessarily.”
”She is a remarkable woman already,” Johannes stated. ”I'm already thrilled with this project.”
”She did so much, this time, we should lend a hand,” Johannes proposed.
”Sorry to say but I'm not good at baking,” Nancy said.
”Likewise,” Thomas added.
Isla mentioned, ”Me neither but I love pastry.”
Johannes said, ”You are only good at eating. We can't let you wander around when the pastries will be baked or you will finish them all.”
”Hmph!” Isla pouted.
Han Luo came back and told them, ”Everyone, the dinner has been served. Come this way.”
They dined together. Han Sheng Ming, Zheng Mian, and Mo Yuan would eat later. Chef Sophia served the meal and they dug in.
”Oh, I never had such a delicious meal at home!” Isla sang.
Han Luo mentioned, ”She is good at making pastries too.”
”Then I must eat them before leaving.” Isla's eyes were sparkling.
Han Luo declared, ”You have to because I've decided that Sophia will make the pastries. Her skills are top notch. However, we need to have William's recipe. Nancy-”
”No, I won't hand over Will's recipe to a stranger!”
