CHAPTER 725 GREEDY
The interior of the private room was decorated lavishly. In the middle of the room was an ornately carved long table. Sitting at the head of the table was Liam Lane.
At 1.9m tall and with a strongly-built body, Phillip Lane cut an imposing figure from where he stood beside Liam. His eyes were sharp and piercing as he stared at Nathan and the others.
Stationed around the room were twenty other men who were standing stiffly with their hands behind their backs and blank looks on their faces.
It was obvious from the way they held themselves that they were not your average men.
Wayne brought their guests inside before heading to Liam's side. In a low tone, he informed, "Sir, they're here.”
Dressed smartly in professional clothing, Penny smiled as she introduced herself, "Good day, Mr. Lane. I'm the president of Cross Group, Penny Smith. We're here today to -"
"Sit down!" Liam cut her off.
Penny was taken aback at the unfriendly tone in his voice. Although he was inviting her to sit, the way he interrupted her was just plain rude.
For a moment, she did not know what to make of his attitude.
Whatever the case, she was still the president of a hundred billion company. Remaining calm and thinking on her feet were two traits she most certainly had.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
She exchanged glances with the rest of her entourage before pulling out a chair to sit down. The rest were quick to follow her actions.
Liam picked up the teapot in front of him and busied himself with pouring several cups of tea.
His expression was as chilly as his tone when he spoke up, "I know why you're here. You wish to become business partners with the Lane family so we can help you reach the Northania market."
Penny nodded. "That's right. To be frank, Cross Group is a Southern company. If we were to force our way into the Northania market to sell the liver cancer vaccine, we would most definitely run into some opposition from the local companies. That's why we're hoping to find a well-known and influential business partner that we can delegate the sales to. The Lane family was our best option.”
In truth, the Lane family was not the most powerful family in Northania but they were the best suited to work with Cross Group. She was sure that the Lane family would be more than willing to cooperate with them.
She watched Liam with a smile on her face as she waited for his reply.
Liam's lips twitched before he stated, "Alright. The Lane family agrees to work with you. Now, what about the profits?”
“We produce the vaccine while you sell them. Taking away the production costs, how about we split the net income by fiftyfifty?"
Splitting the profits fifty-fifty was a very generous offer on Cross Group's part. They were willing to sacrifice a substantial amount of profit just so they could get into the Northania market.
Liam raised an eyebrow and said in a neutral tone, "That's too little.” Penny was puzzled. "Mr. Lane?" Picking up a teacup, he took a sip before explaining, "I don't think fifty-fifty is good enough."
She frowned. Splitting the income fifty-fifty was a decision made after careful deliberation with the company executives. This was the most they were willing to sacrifice.
Yet, the Lane family was still not satisfied!
She pondered over her choices before finally saying, "Then what do you propose, Mr. Lane? If it's within reason, I'll see if | can accept your suggestion."
He narrowed his eyes. "! want the full distribution rights to the vaccine in Northania. As for the profits, | want ninety percent.” His words caused the eyes of the Cross Group executives to widen. This was practically highway robbery!
Enraged, Penny stood up and uttered
coldly, "Since the Lane amily has ind i cestode ether at si there's nothing left for us to discuss. Let's go." Please read the original content at .
Her executives got to their feet, intending to leave with her.
Just then, Phillip bellowed, "Without Mr. Lane's permission, how dare any of you leave? Our business is not done yet!” With that, he placed his hands on two male executives’ shoulders and pressed them down gently. Thud! Thud!
