A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love

Chapter 589

The attendees were taken aback by Hesper's dominance throughout the meeting, leaving Rickard at a

disadvantage. It seemed they had greatly underestimated her.

"Mr. Duval, if we continue like this, we'll get nowhere," Hesper interjected, halting the profit negotiation

with Rickard. She proposed a figure. "This figure is most acceptable to both parties after my

calculations. I believe your company has also estimated beforehand. If you disagree, you can suggest

a different figure."

The rest of the people fell silent. They had planned the data previously and determined the optimal

solution. They just didn't anticipate Hesper to be so precise; it matched their previous calculation

exactly.

"You seem prepared, Ms. Lane," Rickard remarked.

In response, Hesper smiled and narrowed her eyes. "You laid so many traps for me, so it's only

reasonable for me to be well-prepared."

"Traps?"

Hesper tilted her head and said, "Quit pretending, Mr. Duval. There are numerous employees present.

If I expose them all, this meeting may not end well for you."

Rickard frowned, glancing at Benji, who quickly looked away. Pinching his nose, Rickard seemed to

realize why Hesper was so angry when she visited this time. He assumed Hesper's request for

cooperation was a coincidence, but now he recognized it was Benji's plan all along.

Observing Benji and Rickard, Hesper also realized that she may have misunderstood Rickard.

However, birds of a feather flock together. If Rickard did not share those thoughts, Benji wouldn't have

had the audacity to make the call.

As they exchanged glances in silence, the other staff watched apprehensively.

"Okay. Let's do what you said," Rickard said, finally making a decision.

The people in the meeting room breathed a sigh of relief. Once the price was established, several small

teams collaborated and the contract was swiftly completed.

After carefully reviewing the contract, Hesper signed it without any hesitation.

"I hope our collaboration will be pleasant," she said.

"Same here," replied Rickard, extending his hand for a handshake.

Hesper shook it politely and added, "I have some pending tasks at the office, so I'll take my leave. I Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

trust that you'll deliver the machines on time, Mr. Duval. Thank you."

Without wasting any time, Hesper pushed open the meeting room's door, only to come across Sophia.

She didn't know whether Sophia had stayed there since leaving or had just coincidentally come by.

Raising an eyebrow, Hesper was about to say something, but Sophia simply lowered her head and

walked away.

"Will you be driving back, Ms. Lane?" Benji asked as he caught up with her.

Hesper snapped out of her thoughts and replied, "Renee will come to pick me up."

When Benji heard Renee's name, he was momentarily taken aback. Clearing his throat, he awkwardly

said, "Then please take care on the road, Ms. Lane."

"Are you telling me to be careful on the road or telling Renee to be careful on the road?" Hesper

casually asked.

Benji widened his eyes in panic and stuttered, "H-How did you know? I… I haven't confessed yet."
