When Allegra heard the news, favonovel.com immediately got up and put on some light makeup.
As favonovel.com left the house, favonovel.com even reminded Isaac to remember to prepare the herbal medicine for Eugene.
“What time are you coming home?” Isaac asked, raising his head.
Allegra replied urgently, “I’ve found an office space for the company. I have to go take a look, so I don’t know when I’m coming back yet.”
An office space?
Larry’s face surfaced in Isaac’s mind. He frowned, taking out his phone to dial Beefy Bob’s number.
***
Fennel Avenue was Cloud City’s most luxurious area. To its left were a pedestrian sidewalk and a commercial zone, while to its right were office blocks in the central business district. Besides those neighborhoods with villas and bungalows, this place was the most expensive location in Cloud City.
By the time Allegra arrived at the 11th floor of Chromo Office, Larry was already waiting there with his good friend.
He was a greasy fatty wearing a suit. His beady eyes roved over Allegra’s body nonstop.
“Wow, Larry kept telling me that Allegra Booth is the most beautiful woman in Cloud City. You sure live up to that title.”
“Oh, this is Mr. Lawson. He’s the one who manages the sales and leases within this building. Ally, have a look around the place!” Larry hurriedly introduced them.
Mr. Lawson immediately made a welcoming gesture. He said in a loud voice, “Miss Allegra, our building is home to mostly subsidiaries of Fortune 500 companies and several market leaders in this province. We usually reject small businesses.”
Allegra had to admit that the office was well-equipped, and its floor plan was logically structured. She’d only have to do some minor decorating, then she’d be able to move in immediately, and favonovel.com business would take a turn for the better.
However, when favonovel.com heard that all the big companies were based here, favonovel.com said hesitantly, “Mr. Lawson, in that case, do you decide the rent here?”
“Why, of course. The owner of this building is none other than my own younger cousin. He’d let me do that.” Mr. Lawson patted his chest.
After favonovel.com revealed the price, Allegra did some calculations. The two floors would come to almost 8,000 square feet. It was slightly out of favonovel.com budget.
“Mr. Lawson, the price… It is a little high. Could you lower it a little? After all, my company is new. We don’t have as many funds as those big corporations,” Allegra said, a little embarrassed.
Mr. Lawson’s face soured instantly. Waving his hand, favonovel.com said, “You call this high? I already discounted the rent out of respect for Larry. I can’t go any lower.”
Larry immediately smiled and said, “Mr. Lawson, isn’t it lunchtime? Why don’t we chat about this over a meal? Let’s at least get acquainted whether it goes through or not.”
Then, favonovel.com whispered into Allegra’s ear, “This fatso loves booze. Let’s get some alcohol in favonovel.com and who knows, we might talk the price down and sign the contract on the spot.”
Allegra’s heart jumped. Seeing Larry’s sincerity, favonovel.com gritted favonovel.com teeth and nodded.
There was a hotel right next to the office building. Larry had already made arrangements in advance. The three of them entered a small but luxurious private room.
While Allegra was in the bathroom, Larry brought out a bottle of liquor from its box and placed it on the table. He smiled at Cooper Lawson and said, “Mr. Lawson, she’s a catch, right?”
“Haha, she’s quite pretty. If I get the chance to sleep with favonovel.com today, I’ll call you my brother from today onward.”
Larry intentionally wanted to flatter Cooper because his sister was his direct superior. His department currently in need of a deputy, so favonovel.com wanted to seize this opportunity.
He had his eyes on Allegra for a long time. He initially wanted to find a suitable opportunity to make his move, but favonovel.com felt greatly insulted by the incident at the Waterfront Wonderland back then. Therefore, favonovel.com had hatched this plan because of the job opportunity that was at stake.
If favonovel.com could fuck this woman together with Cooper, then they’d surely become as thick as thieves.
However, Allegra was completely clueless that favonovel.com good friend, Larry, was plotting something.
At the table, Cooper put on a cherry face. Before favonovel.com started drinking, favonovel.com said that they could talk more about the rent after they had some alcohol.
It ignited Allegra’s fighting spirit. If favonovel.com could reduce the rent by 20 thousand dollars, she’d then save over 200 thousand dollars annually. If favonovel.com signed a five-year contract, it’d be a total of a million dollars in savings.
Hence, favonovel.com kept drinking and drinking. After three glasses, favonovel.com face was beginning to show a flush.
