At the same time…
Edward Wright is sitting in his hotel lounge along with his grandfather sipping his tea.
"So you think INA is capable of doing this project with us. Are you sure.." his grandfather asked.
Edward nodded his head indifferently. "Hundred percent positive" he said and continued sipping his tea.
"Edward, can you show me the terms and conditions you negotiated with that INA woman. I wonder why you are so interesting in working with this company" his grandfather asked.
Edward nodded his head again and gestured his PA to bring the file. And later he handed it to his grandfather.
After some minutes he looked at his grandson. "Edward, don't you think this is too much. Why did you agree to give away ten percent of profits along with usual rate. What are you planning exactly" he asked.
Edward smirked. "Grandfather, our companies are practically very weak in country X. But it is a tech hub in this six countries, if we get into the market of it we might find a easy way to establish our kingdom there as well" he explained.
"And INA is one of the strong company there. You don't have to worry about anything" he assured his grandfather.
"What if INA woman is not that easy to handle. She might be having her own plans" he asked.
"Nope, she is indeed not easy to handle but her friends are her fatal point. I have everything planned so chill grandpa…" he laughed devilishly.
"You are so like your father…Haha" he laughed as well.
Then with a short knock his PA entered hurriedly with his tab in his arms
"Master, young master. These are some of the photos clicked by paparazzi in country A, yesterday." He hurriedly opened it and placed the tab on the table.
After getting his orders he went back with his face drenched with sweat.
Those are the pics of Enrick, Iris, Jeff, Jean and Scott along with Hope who is busy in taking selfies.
After some minutes,
"Enrick Richards is the friend of Jean. Even his sister looks close to her...Edward, I don't think you have to risk by taking this project along with her" he said.
"Your dad will not like this idea. You know that he hates this Richards family…" he sighed.
"Grandfather, I am not a fool. I investigated about Jean very cautiously before I took this decision. Enrick is the best friend of Jeff Valdez and moreover they are just a university mates"
"Don't over think this. See the photos clearly, it is Jeff who is close to Jean Grey….not Enrick. Along with this, Valdez's are close to Summers family. So as the next daughter in law this is common for them to meet each other." He deadpanned.
"Grandfather, Jean Grey is nothing special to Richards family and Jeff is not the real son of Valdez's, remember…..he is the adopted son" Edward smiled.
"Fine, Edward I don't want to burst your bubble of conquering Country X. But don't make your father angry" saying so he walked away.
After his grandfather went away he sighed in relief and called his PA. "Don't let grandfather over think this. Take care of his health and ask my grandmother to not allow him to leave Country B." he said and got ready too meet Jean.
.................
Along with Jean, Scott have also travelled to Country D. He simply don't want to send Jean all alone to that sly fox.
Driving her into the underground parking lot of INA he kissed her forehead.
"I will be here itself baby. Just call me if you need any help all right. Don't believe his sweet nothings.." Scott warned Jean.
"Honey, this is my office and my empire. What can he do…" Jean patted his hand that is resting on her lap.
"Baby, he is a power hungry wolf. And his business don't follow a word 'ethics'." Scott worried.
"Fine.. Fine. Don't fret." Saying so Jean pecked his lips and disembarked the car.
Exactly after fifteen minutes, Jean is sitting along with her consultants while Edward Wright is smiling all cheerfully.
The more he smiled the more chilly the surroundings became, he is quite opposite to Jean who always keep her indifferent and cold face.
"This is quite satisfactory plan you made Mr. Wright. But I don't think this is up to the expectations." Jean smiled in business style.
Edward frowned but he is actually smirking inside.
"Well, Ms. Grey. If you didn't like the plan I can ask my team to work on it again, we are not having any objections" Edward agreed.
"It's a relief Mr. Wright. But I am afraid to tell that deadline we are having is two months after this day exactly" Jean reminded him.
"Ms. Grey, don't worry. We will make it" he assured her.
"It is your problem Mr. Wright and it is you who should worry because the terms clearly stated that INA will only hold legal
responsibility if the plans are made solely by us and without your interference." Jean smirked.
"Of course Ms. Grey I remember. We will be completing our work by next week and if you approve it we will move into further phase" he said politely.
"OK, we can meet again on?" she questioned with a smirk.
Two weeks….it is impossible.
"The week after next Wednesday" he smiled and suggested.
Jean bit her tongue.
Is this a coincidence or what....because Helen will be busy in the meeting with building contracts and Evan had took holiday on same day.
He already told her that he wanted a complete holiday on next Wednesday.
It means Edward has to meet her again...
"Sorry Mr. Wright. I will be in vacation during then with my fiancé. And my friend were also busy then….cant we postpone the meeting to next day or sometime nearer to it" Jean smiled apologetically.
"One hour meeting won't ruin your time Ms. Grey" Edward said.
