After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire
Chapter 489 A Tough Position

Chapter 489 A Tough Position

Charles was on pins and needles in his office when he received Martina's call.

He had no other choice but came to Bills for help. Early in the morning, he asked Bills for a favour to persuade Hannah to take over the project. The e-commerce project was delayed and Bills suffered the greatest loss from it. Therefore, Bills would do all out to make it happen, while Hannah would probably do Bills a favour. But he could just make a guess. He couldn't jump to conclusions currently. Hannah was so tough and strong that no one could control her.

Full of intense energy, Charles picked up the phone immediately, "Did they call?"

"Yeah, they just called and told us to have a talk with them in the Cooper building within half an hour. And they said it's our last chance."

"OK." Looking excited, Charles urged Martina and said eagerly, "You should go there right now! Make sure you'll be there on time. You hear me?" "Charles! Is it necessary to please Hannah like that?"

"Damn it! Haven't you learned your lesson yet?" Charles got furious in a flash, "I swear to God I won't go easy on you if you're late!"

Charles hung up the phone abruptly and left in a hurry. But he ran into someone when he just got out of the office.

Wearing a frown, Oscar looked at Charles's anxious face and smiled coldly, "What's the rush, Mr Sawyer? What's wrong? You seemed freaked out."

Charles managed to stay calm. He'd never been in such a tough position. In anger, he glared at Oscar, whom he'd always looked down upon. But at that moment, Oscar was standing right in front of him and happened to see his awkwardness. Anyway, he gritted his teeth and went past Oscar indifferently.

Oscar watched him leave and could guess the reason why he was in such a panic. Probably, Hannah had compromised and was willing to negotiate the e-commerce project with him.

He wasn't part of it from the beginning but he'd told Theodore to keep a close eye on it. So he could give a hand to her immediately if needed. Indeed, he'd underestimated his beloved wife. It was like a piece of cake to her to deal with Charles. Thus, he decided to sit back and do nothing.

"It's said that I'll be your direct supervisor from now on." Oscar said lightly behind Charles's back.

Hearing it, Charles paused his steps and turned around to look at Oscar.

In the past half a year, he'd been promoted again and again while Oscar was in River Town. His promotions were operated in the shadows, so the public rarely knew that. They would be on an equal footing when Oscar came back.

"Thanks to my good job performance in River Town, I got promoted." Oscar said peacefully. His careless tone had nearly driven Charles crazy and pissed him off.

But Charles just sucked it again and said nothing in reply, then left in a hurry. He got in his car and stepped on it. He had already been insulted by Hannah, but he had never imagined he would be out- competed by Oscar. He wasn't resigned to it, anyway! And he just couldn't accept it.

Thanks to his calm personality, Charles knew clearly that he must fix the e-commerce project first, otherwise, the Sawyer Group would be devastated. He parked in the garage of the Cooper building and called Martina while getting off, "Where are you now?"

"Parking."

"Hurry up. I'm waiting for you at the gate!"

Martina hung up and looked like shit. It was out of her expectation that she would have been pushed into this kind of situation by Hannah. She had never felt so sick in her whole life. Fearless as she always was, she hadn't been threatened by anyone. However, she had to ingratiate herself with Hannah at the time. She rushed out of the car in a huff and hurried to the gate. Charles glanced at her coldly and took her into the office building. They got into the building this time since they had got an appointment in advance.

It was the first time Martina visited the Cooper Group. She was kind of impressed and amazed by its splendour and grandness. She used to think Hannah was nothing but a stupid woman and had never thought she was from a very rich and powerful family. Finally, she felt a little awed by Hannah while walking along in the lobby, which was more splendid than that in the Sawyer building. They got on an elevator and went straight to Hannah's office. Charles went up to Rose and said, "Excuse me. We have an appointment with Ms Hannah."

"Hold on, please," Rose said politely. She knocked at the door and went into Hannah's office, "Charles and Martina are here." "Tell them to come in."

"OK." Rose got out of the office and said, "You may go in now."

Charles nodded slightly and kept his good business manners. Then he knocked at the door of the office and went into.

Hannah was sitting in front of a huge office desk. In a formal career suit, she looked stunning and eye-catching with her good figure and drop-dead gorgeous face. She looked extraordinary and attractive on any occasion. Charles stared at her without a blink. For the first time, he had a feeling that he had been far behind her. But he wouldn't allow himself to yield to her.

Together with Martina, he walked into the office peacefully and went up to Hannah.

Hannah put away the documents and made an internal call, "Rose, come in."

"OK, MS Hannah."

Very soon, Rose came in too.

"I'm done with the documents. Tell them to save on file, review and check the information." Hannah said to Rose.

"OK." Rose left with a pile of documents in her arms.

Hannah finished her work in hand and then talked to Charles and Martina, who were standing in front of her, "Take a seat."

Martina found it unacceptable. How could Hannah be so superior to them?

"Mr Jones has called and told me that you wished to sell us the e-commerce platform." Hannah said righteously.

Charles took over the files which he had told Martina to prepare beforehand, and handed them to Hannah, "Here's the transfer contract. You can check it out." Hannah took it over and checked it carefully.

"Four billion?" she said.

"It's the market value. Here's the valuation list." Saying it, Charles took it out and handed it to her.

But Hannah didn't read the contract. Instead, she said bluntly. "I'm clear about the market value. I've also planned to buy it at the price of four billion at the beginning, but you know, people have feelings. We didn't have a good time in our first deal, and you want me to buy it at the same price now? Then who's gonna pay for the difficult time I've been through?"
