"I can’t take it anymore, just one glance at him and I feel like I’m going to get pregnant."
Adam Jones ignored the noisy discussions around him and walked straight toward Elly Campbell.
This damn woman had clearly seen his car parked here, but she had just walked away.
Everyone watched as Adam strode purposefully behind Elly, his long arm blocking her path.
Looking up at Adam, she frowned, and before he could say something suggestive, she beat him to it, "President Jones, I’ve already said our company does not wish to cooperate with Jones. Mr. Ainley should have informed your company. Please don’t force our hand."
Hearing Elly say this, the onlookers who thought there was a special relationship between Adam and Elly finally understood.
So President Jones wanted to collaborate with their company, damn it! Such a great opportunity, why would CEO Campbell refuse!!!
Once Adam heard what Elly said and saw the curious eyes around them, he immediately understood the meaning behind her words.
To clear her association with him, Elly was really trying hard.
He snorted coldly in his mind, lowered his voice to cooperate, "Let’s not speak so absolutely. Cooperating with Jones is only beneficial for CEO Campbell, there are no downsides. CEO Campbell, why not listen to my cooperation proposal before deciding to refuse me?"
His voice was low and pleasant to the ear, and as soon as he spoke, he melted everyone present.
He might appear gentle, but his gaze was intense, almost daring her to refuse so that he could say things that would not let her rest easy for a long time.
She glared fiercely at Adam, took a deep breath, and said," Since President Jones is so sincere, let’s talk."
Adam smiled in satisfaction, made a "please" gesture to Elly, who didn’t look at him, turned, and walked to her Bentley, getting into the car.
Following her, Adam settled into the back seat and said, "Drive."
Only when the Bentley car left Brayman Tower did the employees of Brayman reluctantly retract their gazes.
Some were satisfied, others were envious.
"Speak, why did you come to find me?"
Elly said with a stern face, looking straight ahead with a cold voice.
"Didn’t I say it was to discuss a cooperation with you?"
Adam replied with a faint smile, raising an eyebrow.
"Didn’t I also say that I don’t want to cooperate with President Jones?"
Impatience showed on Elly’s beautiful face.
Collaborating with Jones meant she would have to interact more with Adam, and that increased the chances of William finding out.
"President Jones, we’ve arrived."
Shortly after, the car stopped in front of a restaurant, and the driver turned and said.
Adam nodded, then said to Elly, "Let’s get out."
Elly followed, her face still cold, and the two entered the upscale French restaurant nearby.
The waiter led them to a VIP room on the second floor.
Elly complied, but her impatience didn’t lessen. "President Jones, about the cooperation, there is nothing to discuss. My grandfather had refused a partnership with Jones in the past, and now, I too will not agree."
Adam was in no rush; he just lounged lazily on the sofa, his eyes inscrutably assessing Elly’s slightly dissatisfied face.
This woman, no matter when, no matter her expression, couldn’t conceal her beauty.
He even wondered, how much of his interest in Elly was because of her face?
