Chapter 110
I don’t doubt Chase’s feelings for Tanya, Mary said. “I’m worried Ashley will do something to stop the divorce.”
She told Mark and Yonnie, “You should talk to her.”
Ashley and Tim had no idea what they were talking about. As they exited the elevator, they met three men. Tim sighed. What bad luck!
They were Jeffery, Benjamin, and someone who looked really familiar. The three of them greeted Tim.
“Mr. Reed, what a small world!”
Tim replied insincerely, “Indeed.”
Jeffery, who had tried to invite Tim to dinner before, completely ignored Ashley.”Since we’re here…”
Benjamin added, “We haven’t had dinner together for ages.”
“Sorry, Tim said.”I’m busy.” He looked at the third man.”Mr. Adler, what brings you here?”
Matt Adler, handsome and expressionless, said, “I’m on vacation.”
Tim couldn’t wait to leave. He said, “Some other time, then. We’re really busy.”
Matt nodded. They entered the private room.
Once Tim was away, Matt asked, “Did you guys offend him?” Tim clearly wanted to avoid them.
Benjamin was confused.”No.”
Jeffery frowned, saying nothing.
Benjamin said, Tim is impressive. If those projects succeed, his net worth will skyrocket.”
Matt said calmly, “He’s a genius and his teacher is Mr. Burke. His field is booming, and he’s skilled. His success is expected.” He glanced at Jeffery. “I heard you were interested in Tim’s girlfriend, then moved on. Why? Did she do something?” Jeffery didn’t even look at Ashley just now.
Jeffery frowned.”Can we not talk about her? Let’s order.”
Matt shrugged, changing the subject.
It was a busy day. Ashley and Tim returned to work after dinner.
On Wednesday morning, while they were in a meeting, Tim’s secretary informed him that Zark had arrived.
Tim sighed. He knew why Zark had come without warning. Given Zark’s status, he couldn’t ignore him. He told Ashley, “Continue the meeting. I’ll go see him.’
‘Okay.”
Zark was already in the meeting room. Seeing only Tim, he stood, extending his hand.”I’m sorry for the unannounced visit.”
Tim said, “Mr. Green, please don’t say that.”
Zark presented a document.”My proposal. Please review it.”
Tim examined it carefully. Then, he set it down.”Mr. Green, this is very generous. However, I have other considerations on my side and will need some time to respond.”
Zark remained pleasant.”I see. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.”
He left after exchanging pleasantries. Tim, impressed by Zark’s proposal and demeanor, walked him downstairs. Ashley had finished the meeting.
Tim said, “Zark is efficient.” He’d rejected him two days ago, and today he arrived with a comprehensive proposal.
To be honest, I’m quite tempted,” he said.
Ashley said, “Let’s observe. If it’s suitable, we can collaborate with him.”
Tim agreed but felt frustrated that his attempts to make things difficult for Zark were thwarted.
