The Heiress Strikes Back

253 Bribery

“Besides, Sullivan has a lot of business. Building materials, entertainment, food and beverages... These are all related to our family’s businesses. If you buy the Harris group’s shares at the lowest price now, you will definitely only make money in the future! This is much safer than choosing new partners without any background.”

Louis suddenly felt a little anxious. I definitely can’t waste this opportunity. I thought that Tommy would take the initiative to look for me. Who knew that he would ask so many questions?

“If Sullivan has to give up such a big piece of cake because of this small rumor, it will be a loss for Sullivan! Besides, I don’t think Mr. Tommy is such a petty person. If you’re so conflicted, I’ll look down on you. Besides, I’m just telling the truth. If it weren’t for the fact that I’m unwilling to let my father fall into this storm, I never would’ve thrown away the shares in my hands. Therefore, Mr. Tommy must know which is more important.”

After hearing this, Tommy almost laughed out loud. This Louis is really brainless and is blatantly lying. If the Harris Group really is as he says, would this person still be so anxious to promote the company shares in front of me?

Who wouldn’t know such a simple provocation? This crisis is all because of the Harris family. Why does Louis seem like a brainless person? Why does he use such a childish method to embarrass himself? Tommy was already sick of the man’s tricks. To think that he still dared to say such things.

Tommy looked at Louis with a faint smile as if he didn’t care about this person at all.

Louis gazed at him, gritted his teeth, and said, “I only felt that you were sincere after interacting with you so many times-that’s why I felt relieved to hand over the company’s shares to you. I really can’t bear to part with the others, but you don’t seem to be interested in looking at them... In that case, I’ll have to hand over the money-making matter to someone else. Although I can’t feel at ease, I have to survive!”

Tommy was very annoyed. Since he has already said so, I can’t be bothered to argue anymore.

He sneered, tapped his fingers on the table, and said bluntly, “Okay, do as you please then! If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first. Come-send the guest out!”

“Wait... Wait a minute!” Louis was stunned. I didn’t expect that Tommy would be unmoved after I stated so many benefits, making it very tempting to others!

Coupled with the impatience on Tommy’s face, Louis quickly calmed down. “Mr. Tommy, what do I have to do for you to be willing to cooperate with me? This is already the best offer I can give.”

At this moment, Tommy glanced at Louis and snorted lightly. “Firstly, I’m not interested in the Harris Group at all. You asked me to buy these shares, and you were begging me. I hope you can correct your attitude and let me see your sincerity. Otherwise, there’s no need to talk about this.”

Negotiations in the business world were actually a process of playing against each other. There was nothing but confrontation between the two of them, and they were friends and not enemies. If he couldn’t suppress the other party, he would definitely be the one on the losing end.

Tommy was actually determined to get the Harris Group’s shares, but according to Sharon... Even if I want to get those shares, I have to let Louis understand that not everyone is qualified to cooperate with Sullivan. This is especially so since Sharon said that unless Louis kneels on the ground and begs me like a dog, she will never cooperate with him.

When Louis heard this, his face turned pale, and his tone softened. “...Mr. Tommy, our companies have worked together for many years. There’s no need to speak like this!”

“Who’s worked with you many times? We’re talking business now. Don’t you understand business? And if you want to hear something nice, you don’t have to come and talk to me about the acquisition.”

When Louis saw Tommy’s expression, his face alternated between green and white. Why should Wallace be able to gain Tommy’s favor while I have to endure his smugness and arrogance?

Seeing Tommy get up to leave, Louis quickly grabbed his arm.

Tommy turned around and stared at the other man in disgust. Seeing his indignant expression, he wanted to slap Louis.

Sighing in his heart, Tommy coldly pulled his arm away. If he hadn’t controlled himself, he would’ve hit Louis.
