Chapter 784 Trash
Chapter 784 Trash
Mia's ex-fiancé was Ethan Windsor, the Young Master of the Windsors.
Kingsley remembered that he had taught Ethan a harsh lesson before the bidding conference of the Coliree Group began!
He even drove Ethan out of the country and all the way to Mittera, never allowing the man to ever set foot on the Empire of Qustia again!
Yet, he had never once met Jeremy throughout the entire debacle!
Although Jeremy also attended the bidding conference of the Coliree Group, he had never paid any attention to the patriarch of the Windsor Family.
Kingsley immediately came to a realization when he noticed Jeremy's sullen expression. It seemed that the other party already knew that he was the one who drove Ethan away. That was why Jeremy viewed him with such animosity!
Alas, he didn't know that Jeremy felt resentful of him because of something else as well!
Jeremy was holding a grudge due to the collaboration project between Neveah and Coliree Group! The fact that Neveah won the bid made him extremely jealous! He had stayed up for at least half a month just to secure that project! To make matters worse, Reene was the ultimate winner that day, not him!
At the bidding conference, he saw with his own two eyes that Reene was sitting together with Kingsley. As a result, he couldn't help but despise Kingsley due to his association with her!
If Jeremy ever found out that Reene winning the bid was actually arranged by Kingsley in advance, he would probably explode with anger!
"So, you're the head of the Windsors." Kingsley smirked as he drawled, "I've heard so much about you!"
"Hmph!" Jeremy snorted coldly in response, utterly ignoring him.
Old Mrs. Sheffield naturally sensed the tense atmosphere between the two as she interjected, "Mr. Nicholson, may I ask the reason behind your visit today?"
Kingsley didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point. "Mrs. Sheffield, I'm here because of Neveah. Neveah is working on a brand project and intends to collaborate with the Sheffield Family in the jewelry sector."
Old Mrs. Sheffield, Jeremy, and even Freddie's expressions changed drastically upon hearing his bold words.
"Hehehe... And here I thought you were here for something interesting." She chuckled derisively. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Previously, Neveah has sent people over several times, and President Wynn has personally visited more than once just to talk my ear off about this. I think I've already made myself very clear. The Sheffield Family will not collaborate with anyone!"
Then, she gestured at Jeremy and Freddie before declaring, "Moreover, these two are also here for the exact same reason. If I haven't agreed to their proposal, what makes you think that I'll give Neveah a second look?"
Kingsley's expression remained unchanged as he continued, "This project involves not only Neveah but also Coliree Group. In my opinion, the Sheffields stand to lose nothing but gain everything if only you would consider collaborating with Neveah."
"I already know that." Old Mrs. Sheffield shook her head in dismissal. "I don't care whether Coliree Group is also interested in joining hands with us. All I know is that I cannot risk allowing the
Sheffield Family to fall into ruin! Otherwise, how can I face my late husband, who died so early, once I pass on? Before he passed away, I promised him that the Sheffield Family would not suffer any losses as long as it remained under my care!"
He quickly retorted, "Old Mrs. Sheffield, I guarantee that collaborating with Neveah will not cause any losses to the Sheffield Family!"
"Guarantee?" Old Mrs. Sheffield kept shaking her head as she responded, "Things in the business world change instantly. One moment, you're riding high, and the next moment, you could suffer a terrible loss! What makes you an exception to this rule?"
"Money!" He stared right into her eyes as he vowed, "Miss Sheffield knows that I have plenty of money to spare. If the Sheffield Family were to suffer any losses, I could fully compensate you for it!"
Alas, Old Mrs. Sheffield remained unmoved. "Sure, you can promise me wealth, but what about the brand image and our tarnished reputation? I refuse to allow the Sheffield Family's name to be besmirched due to my moment of greed!"
Just as he was about to persuade her once more, Jeremy mocked, "Brat, just what do you think the Sheffield Family is?! How dare a nobody little trash company like Neveah even dream about seeking out a collaboration with the Sheffields?!"
