Chapter 250

Liam's words were like a small dose of encouragement, and I made up my mind to handle Mr. Odom.

Liam hadn't mentioned much about what had been keeping him busy lately, but I could tell that it involved more than just work. It was likely something family-related as well. Still, I didn't pry and chose to quietly respect his privacy. When I finally met Mr. Odom through the ticket Mr. Mitchell had given, I knew I was one step closer to success

But I wondered what price it would take to convince someone like him to come out of retirement. He was my only hope for a complete comeback.

Mr. Odom had an air of simplicity and was dressed in a light blue casual outfit. He exuded a fresh and gentle presence along with a scholarly demeanor.

"Mr. Odom, it's a pleasure to meet you," I began. But before I could say anything further, an elegantly dressed woman walked over.

She was dressed in a pale pink gown and had thick wavy hair, Her accessories seemed luxurious, and it was anyone gasping

Mr. Odom glanced at her as a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

"I'm Natalya Gomez from the Gomez Group, and I'd like to propose collaborating on a project. I wonder if you'd be interested," Natalya said as she stepped in to position herself right in front of me.

I was utterly speechless and wondered if I even had to wait in line in settings like this.

"My apologies. I don't intend to collaborate. Please replace someone else," Mr. Odom replied flatly.

Natalya's confidence deflated in an instant. She'd been basking in pride just a moment ago, but now her head drooped in disappointment.

It seemed that convincing Mr. Odom was harder than I'd imagined with Mr. Mitchell. They were all artists with a prickly disposition and had a unique blend of stubbornness and seclusion. It'd be tough to strike up a meaningful conversation with them. "Mr. Odom, you haven't reviewed the Gomez Group's profile, so how would you know there's no opportunity for us to work together?" Natalya pressed on and was unwilling to give up:

I understood that everyone trying to negotiate a deal had to swallow their pride, but whether Natalya could pull off a pa her abilities.

But knowing Mr. Odom's unique temperament, I law that there was no revisiting Mr. Mitchell had warned me to respect Mr. Odom's decisions

"Do you not understand plain language? Or do I have to mention that you're rude?" Mr. Odom sharply pointed out. What had once been a lively event now grew awkwardly tense Although I wasn't the one receiving a scolding, I could feel the embarrassinent creeping

Natalya's expression had shifted, what had initially been a look of confusion had now transformed into discontent and even hatred.

"I refuse to collaborate and that's final. How could a company like the Gomez Group dump waste into local drinking water and have the audacity to call itself a conscientious business when you don't have basic morals? Mr. Odom righteously chided her as mor

This was my first time witnessing such a scene, and the sheer tension made me so cringe that I felt like my toes were curling into the floor.

"Just because we're being polite doesn't mean you can act so high and mighty. We're proposing a collaboration as we think you deserve to work with us, not the other way around. Don't latter yourself!" Natalyaspat.
