Chapter 911 Sharpness Part Two
Amos was evidently taken aback having heard what she said.
The only reason he had agreed to meet with Natalie was that he had taken a liking to her. He didn’t have that high of an expectation for her proposals. However, be it sincerity, or the benefits, it was difficult for him to reject the proposal she had presented to him.
It appears that I was too focused on her looks that I have ignored her brains.
Seeing that the man wasn’t looking away from her, Natalie put the proposal before the man and cracked a smile. “Mr. Stone, the overall terms and conditions are written in the proposal. You can take your time to think it through. I have already said what I wanted to say, so I won’t waste your time anymore.”
“There’s no need to think about this anymore,” Amos replied as he leaned back in his chair. His lips curved into a half-smile as he continued, “I agree to collaborate with Dream Jewelry. Let’s set the collaboration period to one year, and we can consider if we want to continue the contract after one year.”
Natalie was not surprised when she heard his answer. Nodding her head, she said, “All right.”
“I will let the legal department review the terms of the contract. If there are no other problems, you can sign it now.” Amos was still staring at her as he said. “The whole process should take about an hour. If you don’t mind, I can bring you on a tour around the company. You can sign the contract once the legal department reviews it.”
Why drag it out when you can do it early? She was afraid that trouble would come if they delayed this, so she quickly agreed, “Sure.”
When Amos led her out of the VIP lounge, Terry looked as though he had something to say. However, the man gave him a look and he kept her mouth shut.
The assistance had been working with him for years, and they were quite in sync with each other. He instantly understood that Amos wanted to spend the rest of the time with Natalie, and that he didn’t want anyone to disturb them.
“Terry, send this contract to the legal department. Tell them to read through it as soon as possible.”
“Yes,” Terry answered as he took the contract before turning to leave hastily.
Amos took a glance at Natalie, and a hint of a smile surfaced on his face. “Let’s go. We should take a look at the research center.”
Not thinking much of it, the woman followed along as they toured the place.
However, a moment later, the whole of Stone Corporation seemed to have found out that the usually extremely busy CEO was personally showing the company around to a woman.
“Who is she? She’s so beautiful, but she doesn’t seem familiar.”
“Isn’t the Public Relations Department in charge of showing people around? Why did our CEO take their place?”
“You see, if our CEO is personally doing it, it must mean that he like her!”
“Doesn’t he have a fiancée already? She’s Olivia from the Jones family!”
“So what if he has a fiancée? Marriages of the rich always end up having them go on their separate ways anyway. Besides, no matter how beautiful Olivia is, there’s no way she can compare to that woman’s beauty.”
“……”
People were gossiping amongst themselves, and not even thirty minutes had passed when the whole of the company had heard of the rumour.
Natalie was still focused on touring the company, learning about Stone Corporation’s layout and the division of responsibilities between departments. She had no idea that she was in the employees’ gossip.
At that very moment, Olivia entered the Stone Corporation building with some files in her hands.
She could have sent someone to send the file over, but she wanted to use this chance to meet with Amos.
However, she never would have expected to hear people exchanging whispers amongst themselves soon after she stepped foot into the building.
“Is the woman today the CEO’s new caged pet? She’s so beautiful!”
“Even I, a woman, was blushing hard when I saw her from afar. A man like the CEO would have been overflowing with dopamine, right?”
Fury burned within Olivia when she heard that. She strode over in her heels and asked the workers in anger, “What woman? What caged pet are you talking about? Both of you better make yourselves clear!”
