Avenger's coming back novel Chapter 74

On the way to the meeting, Bill was responsible for driving, and Emily was in the passenger seat. Lily and Anna were in the back seats.

On the way, Anna kept quiet and looked out of the car, thinking about something. Lily didn't have the time to talk to her and concentrated on the contract. Although she had work experience in the previous life, she didn't learn something in that experience.

But fortunately, after she came back to life, she tried hard to learn those knowledge. Especially during the period she lived with Joe, she almost tried to learn those knowledge every day.

When they arrived at the appointed place, Lily just finished reading the contract.

The place reserved for the meeting with the client was a five-star hotel. They got off the car and walked in front of the hotel. Bill reserved the room in the hotel which was familiar to him. Emily walked behind him, while Lily and Anna walked at the back.

When they came to a private room, Bill stopped and said to Emily, "Here we are, Emily. Mr. Carl and his fellows are inside."

"Yes." Emily nodded and turned to look at Anna. She said in a low voice, "Find a place to sit in the hall. Order whatever you like. I'll come to you after we finish the meeting."

"Yes." Anna nodded. She would listen to her mother.

Then, she turned to look at Lily and smiled, "Just adjust your state of mind. Don't be nervous."

Lily nodded with a smile, "I know, aunt Emily."

To be honest, she was not nervous at all.

Seeing that she behaved so indifferently, Emily felt relieved. Then she opened the door and walked in. Before she entered, she wore an impersonal smile on her face.

There were two people in the private room. One was chubby and in his forties, which made people feel very flirtatious. The other one was in a pair of glasses and looked quite gentle.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Carl. I was in an emergency." Walking to the table, Emily said to the fat one.

"No, no, No. Everyone will have an emergency." The man, called Carl Zhou, forced a smile on his face and fixed his small eyes on Emily, "If you really want to apologize, you can punish yourself by drinking three glasses of wine."

"Of course I will," Emily said. She seemed to be quite familiar with this situation.

"This is?" Noticing Lily who followed behind, Carl thought for a while and then remembered, "Are you the lady of the Qiao family?"

Hearing this, Lily was stunned for a second, but then she immediately reacted. She smiled and said, "Mr. Carl, you have a good eye."

"You're much more beautiful than in the photo." He said with a smile. He was already fat and had a big face. And his smile made his eyes look smaller.

Lily frowned in confusion. How did he see her photo?

Emily was also confused and a little vigilant.

Seeing their puzzlement, he explained, "I saw Miss Lily's photo on the Internet before."

After hearing his words, Lily understood immediately. It must be the pictures that were sent by the scandal. Yes, it was also widely spread on the Internet, and he had seen it.

"So it is." Lily said with a smile, which was not real.

"Take a seat. Don't stand here all the time." He asked them to sit down and then rang the service bell.

Emily sat opposite him, while Lily and Bill sat on her left and right. As soon as they sat down, the waiter came in.

"Ready to serve." Carl said to the waiter.

"Okay, please wait for a moment." After that, the waiter got out of the room respectfully.

"I didn't expect that Miss Lily would come personally for the cooperation." Looking at Carl with a smile, Carl said, "It seems that I am so lucky. When I cooperated with the Qiao company for the first time, Miss Lily personally welcome me."

Hearing this, there was a flash of displeasure in Lily's eyes, but she still put on a smiling face. "Mr. Carl, you are very modest. We have witnessed your strength. It's also an honor for me that you don't laugh at the little girl."

"Miss Lily, you are such a sweet talker."

"Mr. Zhou, I'm young. If I make any mistake later, please forgive me."

She would say whatever he said, she knew how to do these things in the previous life.

Emily, who had been watching the two talking, was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Lily had the ability to deal with things calmly. She looked at her with new eyes.

While they were talking, the door was opened again. Several waiters walked in with trays, placing the dishes on the table in an orderly manner, and finally pouring wine for everyone before leaving the room.

"Since the dishes have been served, let's start." Then, he added with an evil smile on his face, "But you arrived a little late than the appointed time. As a punishment, manager should punish yourself by drinking three glasses of wine."

"Mr. Carl, don't worry. I will certainly drink these three glasses of wine." Emily smiled back as she held up her glass, "Mr. Carl, this is my first glass..."

"Take it easy, Mrs. Emily. I've changed my mind." Carl interrupted Emily's words and stopped her hand holding the wine glass. "This wine, if you let Miss Lily drink, two glasses are enough. Miss Lily, what do you think?"

After saying that, he stared at Lily with burning eyes.

Seeing him like this, Lily sneered in his heart. He must deliberately put her in an awkward situation today. Moreover, she could see that this man was arrogant.

"Mr. Carl, she is still a kid. Let me drink this." Said Emily, who felt a little regret in her heart.

"No way." Obviously, the man was not willing. "Miss Lily, if you don't drink the wine, you are looking down upon me. I'm afraid that the cooperation today will not be continued."

Well, it was actually a threat!

Lily had read the materials and contracts of the cooperation. Although this person was capable and could bring substantial benefits if they cooperated with him, it would be nothing without this cooperation.

Moreover, he was such a bastard. If they cooperated, he would be more furious in the future.

To say the least, even if they broke up today, Grandpa wouldn't blame her. She believed that he would support her!

It said that making a business deal at table was the easiest way, but it was also the most easy way to express the humanity.

After thinking for a while, Lily raised her head and looked at Emily. She found that she was frowning, and she even shook her head slightly. She knew what she meant.

Lily turned to look at him, and said with a cold smile, "Mr. Carl, what do you think we should do to maintain the cooperation?"

"I believe that you are a smart girl, or else your father would not allow you to come out for business." Then he handed a glass of wine to Lily. "If you drink these two glasses of wine as punishment, I will sign the contract immediately."

"I can drink wine. Mr. Carl, can you sign the contract first?" Lily didn't reach for the wine glass in front of her, but looked at him.

"This is against the rules, isn't it?" While speaking, he handed a glass of wine to Lily. "Miss Lily, you can't break this rule. I always do what I say."

Lily sneered and reached out her hand to take the glass, but when she touched it, she was disgusted by him. Carl touched her hands.

She could not bear it anymore. She stood up with the glass and poured all the red wine on him. She had talked so much with him just now because she wanted to know how much sincerity he had to cooperate with her. Now it seemed that it was not at all!

"You!" Then he stood up and slapped his hands. Red wine was sliding from his face. The suits outside and the white shirt inside were stained with red wine, which made him look very embarrassed.

"Sorry, my hand slipped." Lily put down the wine glass indifferently, as if it was not her who had poured it. "The charge is on the Qiao company. As for this cooperation… Mr. Carl, you'd better find someone else."

Then he turned to Emily and said, "Aunt Emily, let's go."

Emily looked at her admiringly. She stood up and was about to leave. Bill, who had been sitting quietly, also stood up. He was surprised at Lily's action, but to some extent, he was in favor of it.

"Do you think you can leave here as you want?" Carl's face changed. Then, he turned to the man and shouted, "Call for help!"

"Yes." The man took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

All of a sudden, Lily was aware of the danger that the man was coming well prepared!

"Let's go!" said Emily who was about to step out

But the fat guy was faster than them and stood in front of them. "Do you think you can walk today?"

Emily's and Lily's faces darkened at the same time. At this time, Bill stepped forward, looked at him and said with confidence, "Mr. Carl, business is business. You've put us in an awkward situation today, so we won't hold you accountable. I hope you can forgive us."

Bill was disgusted with his words.

"I won't raise my hand today!" Then he turned to Lily and said, "Do you really think of yourself as a rich lady? You're a bitch. You connect with Frank and also connect with Eric."

Slap!

Before he could finish his words, Lily pushed away Bill who was standing in front of her and slapped him.

How many times had she slapped people? She forgot it. But she really liked to slap other people this life!

'You think I'm a sick cat, if the tiger does not get angry?' she thought.
