Warning My Mommy is A Savage

chapter 1826

Both men, clad in their suit, reeked of elegance and success that could not be hidden.

Anthony crossed his long legs and held onto his coffee cup elegantly. He took a small sip and looked across at Fredrick before saying, the bass of his voice evident, "Mr. D'Cruz, as you've seen, the cosmetic market in Burlington is bigger than that in Kansas. You may open up a branch in Burlington, and the sales won’t do any worse than Kansas."

Fredrick looked at Anthony calmly. "President Bailey, I'm not against the idea of opening a branch here. However, I have a condition."

Anthony put down his cup and said, "Enlighten me."

Fredrick then answered, his tone authoritative, "The only condition is for you to divorce Charmine and marry my daughter, Waverly."

Anthony paused at this and looked at him incredulously. "Mr. D’Cruz, this is a personal matter. How does this have anything to do with the business deal?” "Call me selfish," said Fredrick, "but I love my daughter, and I’ll do anything so long as she's happy." i

Anthony scoffed. "It's apparent that there’s no point for us to discuss any further."

He buttoned up his suit and stood up to leave.

Fredrick said confidently, "President Bailey, are you truly not considering it? According to what I know, Burlington doesn't have any luxury skincare products. Furthermore, there's no reliable cosmetic products produced locally. Every consumer relied on imported goods, too, hence all the profits are going out of the country! Kansas will always be in charge of the economics of cosmetics, and I’ll always be in charge."

Noticing Anthony's stoic expression, Frederick had assumed he was slowly getting his point and getting convinced. "President Bailey, if you do as I say, I'll privately let you own up to fifty percent shares of all the cosmetic markets in Burlington."

Anthony, however, did not even hesitate as he coldly declined, "Apologies, but I’m not lacking money."

Even if he was offered a 100-percent share, he would not leave Charmine for Waverly!

Fredrick's expression, the expression he wore during their negotiation, faltered into silent fury.

"You're too young-blooded and unruly, Anthony!" Frederick scoffed. "You'd leave your country to sink for the sake of your own happiness?"

Anthony smiled coldly. "You're the selfish party here. I never collaborate with a selfish partner!"

With that said, he stood up and left.

Fredrick's eyes darkened.

Anthony's attitude...

If it was not for Waverly, he would admire his commitment and personality.

Unfortunately...

He glared at Anthony's back and said, "Anthony, be ready for all the imported cosmetics to double the price!"

Burlington had no resources to produce expensive skincare products, and

Anthony’s arrogance, should it fester, would bring Burlington's downfall!

All of a sudden...

"Is that so?" came a haughty response that rang from the stairs.

Anthony was all-too-familiar with that voice, and he turned around to see...

Charmine, clad in a white shirt and high-waist pants, showcasing her long, slim legs. Her hair was tied back as she also sported sunglasses. Coupled with her heels, she looked visibly professional and smart.

She exuded an air of a successful businesswoman. She walked up to Anthony's side and removed her sunglasses, and it revealed her fair, stunning face.

Seeing her up close, Anthony curiously asked, "Charmine, why did you come?" "Oh, I'm here to teach Mr. D'Cruz a lesson!" replied Charmine as she coldly glanced at Fredrick.

She then took out a few stacks of newspapers from her luxury-branded bag and tossed them onto the table, slightly scattering them in the process.
