Chapter 289 - Ordinary Dinner (1/2)
”Uncle, can you get Raisa out of jail first?” Nico asked. His head felt dizzy from taking care of this problem. On the one hand, he was Raka's best friend. But on the other hand, he couldn't act without his uncle's approval.
”Absolutely not!” Aiden firmly refused. ”Remind our lawyers, Raisa should not get a suspension of detention, even for medical reasons. She should be jailed until the contract is signed,”
Nico's face immediately turned a little pale. He said doubtfully, ”Uncle, Raka would like to see me tonight to discuss it. Can we let Raisa stay in the hospital while we try to strike a deal? Raisa is really going to go crazy in the prison cell.”
”The cooperation agreement process only takes three to five days if you can do it quickly. Once Raisa gets a suspension of detention, this cooperation will end,” Aiden said calmly. ”No matter what Raka says, don't be sorry for him. If you are afraid to offend your best friend, make me the criminal,”
”Okay. I'll say you disagree,” Nico was relieved to find that his uncle was willing to take it all on.
”How was your conversation with Andre?” Aiden asked.
”Uncle Andre is a very careful person. Even though he didn't have any previous accomplishments, there was nothing wrong with the way he worked either. I talked to him a lot. He offered to help me, but the company…” Nico wanted to continue, but he stopped.
”After the cooperation is underway, provide a small project for the company. Then, increase the price and sell the company. That way, he can work more calmly beside you. He has to sell his company if he wants help from us,” Aiden said coldly.
Nico couldn't stop himself from saying, ”Uncle, Uncle Andre didn't do anything wrong, but you kicked him out of the company. Wouldn't it be cruel if you asked him to come back and help me on the condition that he sell his company?”
”If only he could do something for the Atmajaya Group, of course I wouldn't fire him. He's been at this company for a long time, but he's done nothing. Can you equate not making mistakes to an achievement if there is nothing he does?”
Aiden's words left Nico speechless.
Then he continued, ”Give him a small project to increase the price of his company. Then sell the company so that he too can get a profit to help his family. After that, he can work with you. He's enough to pay for his retirement with that money,”
Nico nodded. ”Uncle Andre has no children. He only has one adopted daughter who is abroad. He has no offspring who can help him or continue his company in the future. Without our help, he is completely helpless,”
Aiden nodded. ”For the matter of cooperation with the Mahendra family, the sooner the cooperation is achieved the better,” he ordered Nico.
”Yes, Uncle!” Nico was about to leave after reporting everything to Aiden. But before leaving, he asked, ”Uncle, are you busy? Why are you working overtime today?”
”If you want to interfere, I...”
”I don't want to know uncle. I will go!” Nico didn't wait for Aiden's answer and disappeared as fast as lightning.
Harris entered Aiden's office when he saw Nico running away from the room in a hurry.
”Sir, Miss Keara is coming. She's downstairs,” Harris said.
”What is she doing here?” Aiden's face looked displeased with that.
Harris knew right away once he saw Aiden's expression and said, ”I'll tell her to leave.”
Before Harris could do so, Aiden's eyes flashed a cold gleam. ”Let her in,”
”Sir, Miss Keara still loves you. This can lead to misunderstandings that you don't want. Better not get in touch with her too much,” Harris suggested.
”Do you think Anya will care?” Aiden laughed at himself. ”She wants to divorce me so I can marry Keara,”
Harris was silent for a moment and immediately understood Aiden's intention. ”Madame is very young. She still doesn't understand what you want and what she wants for herself,”
”It's not because she's young, she loves me but not as much as she says. That's why she is willing to give me to another woman,” Aiden said with gloomy eyes. ”Book me a place at a flashy restaurant. I'm going to have dinner with Keara,”
”Do you want to tell the media?” Harris asked.
