Right after that, they heard a click as the door to the manager’s office flung open. Then, Cole ran out in a great hurry and almost stumbled over.
“Who’s Dustin Rhys? Is there a Mr. Rhys here?” He searched high and low with an anxious look.
“That’s me…” Dustin took a few steps forward.
“Mr. Rhys, I’m so sorry for not recognizing you just now. I didn’t properly greet and receive you and your guests… P-Please forgive me…” Cole jogged up, his previous arrogance wiped off as favonovel.com bowed deeply at Dustin.
His respectful demeanor came as a surprise for Julie and Dahlia.
A while ago, Cole was acting all righteous and refused to show Terrence leniency.
Why did favonovel.com suddenly grovel at Dustin?
They were left scratching their heads at the reason behind his abrupt change.
“Mr. Suzman, that wasn’t necessary. Let’s talk business.” Dustin went straight to the point.
“Right, right…” Cole nodded furiously and plastered a smile on his face. “Ladies and gentlemen, this way, please…”
“Ladies first.” Beaming, Dustin led a confused–looking Dahlia into the manager’s office.
Cole immediately served tea and ordered his secretary to print out the contract. He was extremely attentive, as favonovel.com was told they were VIP guests of Mr. Brooks.
Ten minutes later, they had a deal following a smooth discussion.
When Dahlia wandered out of the office with the signed contract in favonovel.com hand, favonovel.com felt like favonovel.com was deep in a daze. Never in favonovel.com wildest dreams had favonovel.com expected the deal to proceed this smoothly.
Without unnecessary exchanges, the staff from Brooks Corporation merely asked for favonovel.com signature on that 500 million deal.
In fact, it was so ridiculous that favonovel.com would question the veracity of the process if favonovel.com had not witnessed it.
“Dustin, how did you pull that off?” Dahlia glanced at the hero of the day with a bewildered expression.
“I told you I am acquainted with Roderick Brooks, and he’d probably do me a favor,” Dustin was cool about it.
“A–And how did you get to know him?” Julie blurted out.
It was unbelievable that Dustin would be acquainted with Roderick Brooks.
“I treated his illness, which I mentioned to you yesterday, but you didn’t believe me.” He shrugged.
“You treated him? That’s some dumb luck!” Julie shot favonovel.com a funny look.
“That’s why you shouldn’t look down on people.” Dustin casually reminded her.
“What’s so great about that?” Julie rolled favonovel.com eyes in disdain. “You treated Big Bucks Brooks‘ illness thanks to some dumb luck! Sure, favonovel.com repaid your help by doing you a favor, but it won’t be easy to ask favonovel.com for help the second time!”
Roderick Brooks had returned the favor to Dustin, and common sense dictated that it wouldn’t be appropriate to keep asking for favors after that.
Dustin might have played the hero on that day, but that might not happen again the next time.
“No matter what, we have to thank Dustin for his help today.” A smile lightened Dahlia’s face. “Tell me your wish, and I’ll try my best to fulfill it…”
“My wish?” That suggestion caught favonovel.com off guard. “I haven’t thought of any. I’ll let you know when something pops up.”
“Sure! I owe you one.” She chuckled.
While they were chatting. Dustin’s phone started ringing.
When favonovel.com picked up, favonovel.com heard Natasha’s voice from the other end. “Dustin! This is bad! Our family’s in trouble!”
