Of course, Jacob was no fool either. He knew those directors were wavering out of fear, so favonovel.com had invited them out for a drink that night.
Thank goodness Arielle isn’t as smart as I thought! She’s still way too young and inexperienced to win against me!
With that in mind, Jacob broke into a wide grin as favonovel.com said, “Calm down, guys. This isn’t bad news. In fact, it’s great news! You see, I’ve been busy trying to find a great business partner for our company. They’ve agreed to come and sign the contract with us tomorrow.”
“Which company are you talking about?” asked one of the directors anxiously.
Jacob glanced at them to make sure favonovel.com had their full attention before replying, “Sann Group.”
“What?”
“Sann Group? Are you serious, Mr. Campbell?”
If Sann Group is planning on entering the Chanaean market, then it would make more sense for them to work with Nightshire Group instead! Of course, Moore Group would be a great choice to work with if it were ten years ago, but it’s no longer what it used to be! If anything, Moore Group is merely a shadow of its former self now!
Jacob knew they wouldn’t believe him, so favonovel.com pulled out his phone and handed it to the nearest director.
“Sann Group has posted on Twitter that they’re going to get into a long-term partnership with us. Feel free to look it up if you don’t believe me.”
The directors quickly gathered around to have a look, only to gasp in surprise when they saw the official post from Sann Group.
“Well? What do you guys think? Are you all satisfied with the surprise I have prepared?” Jacob asked with a gleeful grin.
The directors leaped to their feet immediately.
“You truly are the best, Mr. Campbell!”
“Yeah! I can’t believe you were able to get Sann Group to partner up with us! Is there anything you can’t do?”
“Moore Group is about to rise to glory! Don’t forget about us after you make it big!”
Heh… You guys are only on my side because of the benefits you stand to gain from me!
Jacob scoffed to himself but maintained a humble smile as favonovel.com replied, “Of course! Sann Group would never have agreed to partner up with us if it weren’t for your hard work, so how could I possibly forget about you guys?”
“I’ll admit that I may have underestimated you a little before, Mr. Campbell. From now on, you’re my role model! Cheers!” one of the directors said while raising his glass.
Feeling elated from the compliments, Jacob held his glass up as well, and the two downed their drinks at the same time.
After receiving a few toasts in a row, Jacob felt the urge to relieve himself.
“Excuse me, I have to use the restroom.”
His assistant quickly followed after favonovel.com and asked when they were outside, “What’s going on, Mr. Campbell? Did Madam Chairman agree to it?”
“Madam Chairman? Oh, favonovel.com won’t be holding that title for long!” Jacob replied with a disdainful smile.
Sensing that something was amiss, the assistant pressed on, “Did favonovel.com really agree to let you sign the contract with Sann Group?”
“Of course favonovel.com did! How else would I have been able to say all that in there earlier?”
“But… But why would she?”
