CHAPTER 388 THE PLAN WORTH 100 MILLION

Charles got mad. He could not control himself and shouted at Hannah, “We spent so much effort on

this project and every employee of our company has been working overtime on it. You want us out Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

now? Do you think that's even possible?”

“So you meant that we put in less effort and time than you, right? Was our plan a windfall?”

“Anyway, there's no way we're going to pull out from this project! We'll just have to do without your plan.

We can start over.” Charles said angrily.

Hannah was still calm and she said, “You still kept thinking about yourself and never thought to help

Gordon.”

“Hannah, don't try to drive a wedge here. I thought about helping Gordon, but there is nothing I can do

if you don't give up. We have spent a lot of effort and money on this project, so it is impossible to let go.

Please cut us some slack.”

While Gordon, of course, would not do that. All he was thinking about was his work performance. South

Bay New Town project had caused him trouble and he certainly wouldn't look good. But he couldn't

show that in front of them. So he remained silent.

Charles was such a shrewd person, and he naturally noticed his sulkiness, but for the benefit of his

company, he would not let go. He bet Gordon would fail to persuade Hannah and she would not dare to

be against him, so when the time came, it would be finished if they put some pressure on her. This

might damage his relationship with the bureau, but he could repair that in the future by bribing more

and doing the project well. So in Charles's mind, the relationship between them could be managed but

the loss of this project would be permanent. He must not suffer such a terrible loss.

The conference room was suddenly quiet again. No one spoke. It was like, whoever spoke would be

doomed to lose.

After a long time, Hannah sighed heavily. Gordon and Charles both looked at her.

“Since Charles won't let go, no matter how the situation develops, he is determined to continue, then I

give up. After all, for me, besides profit, our relationship is also important. If we don't give way on this, it

will harm you, Gordon. I don't want you to face such a difficult situation when you just started your work

here.” Hannah spoke.

Hearing her words, Charles became visibly antsy. This woman was always trying to present herself and

put him down. But to continue with the project, he had to let her. If she could let go, he would tolerate

anything she said.

“Really?” Gordon was surprised. He did not expect Hannah would make a compromise. It was clearly

Hannah who was more resolute before.

The surprising turn of her attitude made her look a lot more confident and powerful.

Gordon, in gratitude, was staring at her. This case did get on his nerves, not to mention the problems

now, when there were no problems, it had already made him anxious. He attached great importance to

South Bay New Town, so he was afraid to trust anyone.

“Yes.” Hannah gave him a positive answer, “We can give it up. But, many of our employees worked all

night to come up with the plan and it was stolen. To be honest, I can't explain this to my employees. So,

we are willing to sell the plan to Sawyer at market value.” She said like she was quite generous.

What did she mean by “sell the plan” to them?

Charles was dissatisfied with her suggestion.

“This is the fairest and most reasonable solution that I can think of when Sawyer Group is unwilling to

quit. On the one hand, it does not affect the construction of South Bay New Town. On the other hand,

both Sawyer and us won't be at a loss. What do you think, Gordon?”

Gordon hurriedly applauded, “You are really something, Hannah! This has been a timely solution for us

all. I'm under a lot of pressure these days. I like this solution. No, love it!”

Gordon gave a very strong affirmation. Not only could the construction proceed smoothly, but he could

also resolve the matter fairly so that there would be no gossip.

He could not help looking at Hannah with an admiring look and was genuinely satisfied with her.

Cooper Group had done him a great favor this time. After all, there was nothing he could do to force

her to drop out.

Meanwhile, Charles was very determined, he would rather extend the project until it got abolished.

Never would he let go.

At the thought of this, Gordon got different feelings about the two of them. But he did not show that,

then he turned to Charles and asked, “What do you think of her suggestion?”

Charles didn't look good, but he couldn't say anything. At this point, he would be truly ungrateful if he

objected to this suggestion. But he did not want to do so. He always felt that it was like he offended

others while Hannah became that nice one in this thing.

Depressed, he pretended to go along with this and said, “Yes, I think it is good.”

“Since you both think this solution is feasible, I will be blunt about the price,” Hannah said seriously,

“100 million. If you agree, we can sign the contract in front of Gordon.”

“What? 100 million?” Charles flipped out. He felt like he was always driven mad by her.

“Is your plan made of gold?” Charles barked questions at Hannah.

“Mr Sawyer should be well aware of the value of our plan. The project we proposed to bid for was worth

10 billion. As the soul of the project, the value of the plan deserved to be settled at 1%, is that too

much?”

“Of course it is too much.” Charles was furious, he shouted, “We won't make more than 100 million on

this project but you asked us to spend 100 million on a plan. Why would we do this? To screw up our

project and made it a total loss? Is that even possible?”
