BuzzNovelChapter 2768 Instead, she advised, Keanu, if you cant get Lyndon to sign the contract directly, why not try a different tactic? Approach Tilda and see if she can sway him for you! Keanu furrowed his brow at Scarletts suggestion that he ask Tilda for help.
He shook his head.
Impossible.
I wont do it.
The thought was almost laughable.
He had already swallowed his pride when he approached Lyndon, only to be dismissed and mocked.
And now, Scarlet was suggesting that he seek out Tildas help? That would be more than a loss of pride; it would be total humiliation.
Keanu, why wont you ask Tilda for help? I suppose its your pride thats holding you back.
Scarlets tone was persistent, almost coaxing.
Keanu remained silent, but his clenched jaw gave him away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtScarlet tried again, her voice softening. Dont overthink this.
Tilda was your first love.
Remember how her sister seriously hurt you when you two were dating? Tilda owes you.
It wouldnt be asking too much for her to lend a hand now.
She should compensate you, shouldnt she? Besides, in todays world, everything is about give-and-take.
Not using your connections would be foolish.
Her reasoning did nothing to move him.
Keanu met her gaze, unyielding.
Enough! Im not going to ask Tilda for help.
Scarlets smile tightened, fading into a resigned frown.
She glanced at Alex, who was leisurely swirling the wine in his glass.
He took the cue, setting the glass down with a soft clink.
Keanu, Alex began, his voice low and calculated.
If you dont ask Tilda for help, how do you plan to secure the collaboration with the Fernandez Group? Keanu stared at the floor, not saying a word.
Alex took a sip from his glass, his tone hardening.
You know, N.C has grown to what it is today because everyone here pulls their weight.
We dont keep freeloaders.
Ive said it before-if you cant secure this collaboration, you can forget about your position as manager.
Keanu clenched his fists, frustration simmering beneath the surface as he looked up at Alex.
Mr.
Happer, you are pushinginto a corner.
Alex shrugged, nonchalant.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHow can you say that? Im teaching you to play the game.
This deal could be secured easily if you just followed the path Ive laid out for you. Why else would keep an employee who doesnt follow my orders? The nonchalance in Alexs demeanor infuriated Keanu. He thought of Lyndons words.
Lyndon had said N.C wasnt a company with long-term prospects, even comparing it to a detrimental entity. At the time, Keanu had dismissed it as arrogance.
But now, with Alexs manipulative m tactics on full display, Lyndons assessment seemed more accurate. Keanu took a breath and spoke with resolve.
Mr.
Happer, Im not the right person for this job.
If you insist on pushing me, then I resign.
The declaration hung in the air.
He wouldnt ask Tilda for help, and with his current skills, he couldnt secure the collaboration.
