Wake Up Leave The Liar novel Chapter 260

Chapter 238

That afternoon, shortly after Ashley returned to Eternal, Chase’s call came in.

If they terminated the contract with Speed, it would be a huge loss for Speed.

The moment she saw Chase’s incoming call, Ashley already knew the purpose of his call.

She didn’t answer.

Chase called her two more times, and seeing that she still didn’t answer, his call then went to Tim.

Just like Ashley, Tim naturally also knew the purpose of Chase’s call.

Tim did answer it.

He got straight to the point and said, “Mr. Sterling called, is it about Speed?”

Chase: Yes, Mr. Reed, what conditions do you have to propose?”

Sorry, Mr. Sterling, Ms. Mond’s actions have already crossed my bottom line. I can’t back down on this!” With that, Tim said coldly, Mr. Sterling, do you have anything else?

Chase: Is there really no room for discussion?”

No.” Tim said, and then added, “The follow-up to this matter will be fully handled by me and my lawyer. I don’t want you to harass my company’s employees. Otherwise, I will think that Mr. Sterling, like Ms. Mond, is someone who doesn’t distinguish right from wrong and doesn’t respect collaborators. In that case, I’m afraid I wouldn’t dare to trust you, and thus cooperate with

peace of mind, Mr. Sterling.

Since Chase couldn’t break the deadlock with him, he would inevitably go to Ashley.

Going to Ashley was fine, after all, Chase couldn’t do anything to Ashley.

The fear was that Chase would target the Jones Family for Tanya.

you with

Even if he and Ashley could protect the Jones Family, if Chase targeted the Jones Family, it would be an uncalled-for disaster for the Jones Family.

Since it’s an uncalled-for disaster, it should be avoided if possible.

What he said to Chase on the surface was to tell Chase not to go to Ashley, but in reality, he was threatening Chase with their recently cooperated project, telling him not to target the Jones Family.

With that said, Tim continued, “If something goes sideways with our cooperation, yours and mine, Mr. Sterling, and things blow up, Mr. Sterling, your side might find it hard to clean up the mess. You should surely understand what I mean, right?”

News that Sterling Technology’s project would compete head-to-head with similar foreign projects had long since spread.

The domestic public’s spirits were high, and they had extremely high expectations for Sterling Technology.

Eternal was the best partner for this Sterling Technology project.

If Chase, in order to protect his girlfriend, caused changes in the cooperation between Sterling Technology and Eternal, once the news got out and made headlines, then Sterling Technology and the project they were developing would both be tainted with a scandalous color.

The impact of this on Sterling Technology’s image and the project they were developing is imaginable.

Chase causing such a serious image crisis for the company due to personal private matters undoubtedly touched upon the interests of Sterling Technology’s other shareholders.

With constant internal and external crises, the losses and pressure Chase would face…

Tim didn’t elaborate, but Chase fully understood the crisis behind it.

He smiled and said, “I understand what you mean, Mr. Reed.”

Tim knew that if he could think of the problem, Chase couldn’t possibly not think of it.

He said coldly, “So, Mr. Sterling, do you have any more questions?”

Chase: No, that’s all.”

After he finished speaking. Tim hung up the phone directly.

As soon as he hung up, he called Ashley.

Ashley picked up immediately.

Chase called me, we just finished talking. Tim said, then asked, “Did he call you?

“He already called a few minutes ago.”

Tim let out a chuckle: He really found you first.

Tanya would ask Chase for help, and that he might affect the Jones Family because of helping Tanya, the two of them had already anticipated.

Merks

And Chase probably also guessed that they would use the Sterling Corporation and Eternal’s recent collaborative project as a threat, so he contacted Ashley first to see if he could find a breakthrough with her.

But Ashley didn’t give him a chance.

So, Chase then contacted him.

The reason this matter was discussed between him and Chase was because he was ostensibly Eternal’s person in charge, and it would be more suitable for him and Chase to discuss these matters.

Thinking of this, and thinking of Chase calculating Ashley because he was helping Tanya, and thinking Ashley was easy to bully and trying to start with her, Tim was filled with indignation.

He was also a bit worried about Ashley, asking her:”Are you okay?”

Ashley was calm inside, saying:”I’m fine.” Then she asked him:”Was your business trip today to discuss cooperation smooth?”

“Smooth.”

They chatted a bit more before hanging up.

Speed’s legal team belonged to Ethan.

That afternoon, Ethan had also received news that Eternal was going to terminate its contract with Speed.

That night, in the private room.

When he learned that Chase had already talked to Tim, and Tim’s attitude towards terminating the contract was extremely firm, with no room for maneuver, Ethan said ‘geez,’ and then said something similar to what Mary had said:”Ashley usually seems quiet and keeps to herself. I never thought she’d be so scheming.”

After he finished speaking, he added, “No, not really. Since she drugged you back then and then acted innocent, you can tell she’s not genuinely simple and kind.”

Zark’s thin lips moved when he heard this, but before he could speak, Ethan asked again, “Is there really nothing we can do about this?”

Chase: Not for now.”

Ethan:”…”
