Chapter 166 You Really Let Me Down
Chapter 166 You Really Let Me Down
When Casey heard the Davies family in B City, he immediately guessed that Margaret should have
done something.
That day he told Margaret to let her take back the gift from the Davies family. Margaret agreed. Casey
thought Margaret would send someone over to ask for it. Now it seemed that she didn't want to make it
too simple.
The Davies family was a large family, and everything about it was very pompous. Even if it just came to
asked gifts back, it must be solemn.
Diana didn't tell Edith that Casey was from the Davies family in B City, so Edith didn't connect this
matter to Casey.
She and Casey walked towards the inside, planning to show Francis the contract of Jiangma Building
Materials Factory first.
Albie and Nyla watched Casey and Edith coming, and immediately greeted them with a sneer.
"Edith, how dare you come to Grandpa's place! Is it possible that you want Grandpa to dismiss you
from the manager in front of so many people? If I were you, I would definitely make an apology when
there was no one else." Nyla said with a smile. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
From what she said, it seemed that she believed Edith had not solved the matter of Jiangma Building
Materials Factory.
"Apologize? Why should I apologize? Did you know whether I have succeeded in the talks with
Jiangma Building Materials Factory?" Edith said.
Albie sneered and said, "Of course we know. I had a talk with Director Grayson yesterday. Do you think
he will give up the 10% price increase and choose the 10% price reduction?"
"Since you said you've negotiated, what about your contract?" Edith asked.
Albie was a little embarrassed. Yesterday he also wanted Grayson to sign the contract first, but he said
that now the factory was under his son's name and it would take some time to sign the contract.
"The contract will be signed after two days. Edith, stop it. This time you will not only be kicked out of the
company, but also out of the Patel family!" Albie said coldly.
Then he and Nyla walked over to Francis.
"Grandpa, Edith and Casey are here," Albie said.
Francis nodded, then knocked on the table to silence everyone.
"I invite everyone here today because I have two things to announce." Francis started speaking. He
looked well, as if there was something to please.
Everyone looked at Francis, waiting for what he wanted to say.
"The first thing is the supply of building materials for our company. Edith and Albie made a bet. Edith
said that Jiangma Building Materials Factory will continue to supply building materials at a price that is
10% below the market price. Albie didn't think so. Therefore, he also went to negotiate with Jiangma
Building Materials Factory."
After hearing Francis' words, everyone started laughing at Edith.
"Did I hear it right? Did she actually want a supply of building materials at a price 10% below the
market price? I'm afraid it's not a dream."
"She is also a manager anyhow. How could she be so bombastic? Maybe she was against Grandpa
deliberately."
"It was a dream that she can succeed in negotiating the price reduction. The people at the building
materials factory are not fools."
...
Francis knocked on the table again, quieting everyone.
"Okay, tell me about the results of your talk this time," Francis said.
Albie immediately took a step forward and said, "Grandpa, I have reached an agreement with Director
Grayson yesterday. He is willing to continue to supply us with building materials, but there will be a
10% increase in price. It is all Edith's fault. She insisted on lowering the price. Otherwise, we will not
have to take the trouble."
After hearing Albie's words, everyone accused Edith and praised Albie.
Francis nodded, then looked at Edith coldly, and said, "Edith, what else do you have to say? Albie has
already negotiated with them. Your deal must fall through. From now on, never interfere the company's
affairs anymore, and don't forget what you promised Albie."
Edith immediately took a step forward and said, "Grandpa, he reached an agreement with Grayson
doesn't mean that I failed. Jiangma Building Materials Factory has already given me the contract, and
they will continue to supply us the building materials at a price 10% lower than the market price."
With that, Edith handed over the contract.
"It's impossible!" Albie yelled immediately, "Edith, do you think we are fools? Do you think the Director
Grayson will accept the price you offered after he has negotiated with me? You have got the contract? I
think it is a fake one!"
"That is. Director Grayson is not stupid. Why did Director Grayson give up a higher benefit but sign a
contract with you instead? You take us as fools, don't you?" Nyla echoed.
Edith didn't panic at all and said, "Who told you that the director of Jiangma Building Materials Factory
is still Grayson. Yesterday the director of this factory has changed. No matter how successful the talk
between and Grayson is, it is useless."
"You're talking nonsense! If Jiangma Building Materials Factory does not belong to Grayson, whose it
will be? Edith, you don't even have to rave to lie to Grandpa, right?" Albie stared at Edith.
"If you don't believe me, you can call to ask. As for whether my contract is true or not, you can learn it
from the project. Jiangma Building Materials Factory should have continued to supply building materials
now," Edith said.
An uneasy premonition arose in Albie. He took out his phone and dialed Grayson's number.
Before long, the phone was connected, and Albie hurriedly said, "Director Grayson, someone says that
the boss of Jiangma Building Materials Factory is not you. Is this true? I think it should be a rumor?"
Teddy's voice rang on the other end of the phone, "Jiangma Building Materials Factory is no longer
ours. My father will not do business in this field anymore. Don't call us in the future."
After speaking, he hung up the phone.
Because everyone didn't say anything just now, they heard the voice from the phone very clearly.
A group of people fell silent immediately, unexpectedly what Edith said turned out to be true.
Albie was stunned. He couldn't believe it.
He swallowed, turned his head to look at Francis, and said, "Grandpa, although Jiangma Building
Materials Factory is not owned by Grayson, it is impossible for him to supply Edith with building
materials at a price that is 10% below the market price. Then the contract Edith had must be fake too."
At this time, Francis' secretary received a call, and then he leaned in Francis' ear and said, "Mr.
Francis, a call from the department of TY Group's project said that Jiangma Building Materials Factory
has resumed supply of building materials, and the price is 10% lower than the market price."
The crowd was in an uproar, all cast admiring glances at Edith.
Albie looked at Edith in disbelief. He reached out and grabbed the contract. He saw that Conor's name
was signed on it, and he asked, "Who is Conor? How could a factory as big as Jiangma Building
Materials Factory be acquired by an unknown person? This must be false."
Francis' body began to tremble out of anger, and he shouted, "Albie, shut up. Conor is the Emperor of
the Underground World in J City. Dare you say that he is an unknown person!"
"Don't find any excuses for your unsuccessful negotiation. Compared with Edith, you are so much
worse. You really let me down!"
