"He arrived ten minutes ago." Katherine clicked her tongue and nodded.
"He must be quite eager then.’ Celine opened the door and gestured for Katherine to walk in.
"Mr.Cooper is offering three hundred million dollars”
"He is quite greedy, isn't he?" Katherine replied.
The Power Wave Company was listed five years ago.
Although the market value had already exceeded two billion, Nelson actually wanted three hundred million for that five percent share.
If this wasn't an excessive price, Katherine didn't know what was.
Katherine's smile quickly disappeared as she followed Celine to the restaurant's private room.
There was nothing painted on her face but coldness.
Celine led her to the door of the restaurant's exclusive room.
Right after Celine pushed the door open, Nelson abruptly stood from his seat. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
"Ms.Summer!"
His smile instantly dropped when he saw a different face.
"What? Why are you here?" he asked in confusion.
Katherine, on the other hand, chuckled and stared at him.
"Ms.Summer is busy at the moment.I am her new secretary.” She paused and looked at Nelson with a smile.
"Hello, Mr.Cooper.I don't think I still need to introduce myself" she muttered.
The expression on Nelson's face was priceless.
When Katherine and Zack got married, the Coopers often talked about them behind their backs.
There was even one time when they visited the Colburn family.
Nelson's wife even scolded someone in front of Katherine.
When Victoria and Nelson's wife both scolded her, it was as if they were singing a duet.
That memory was still vivid in Katherine's mind until now.
She was a very vengeful person, after all.
Two years ago, the things that happened had never been erased from her mind.
She could remember all of them clearly.
Nelson didn't react.
Katherine walked towards the table and settled herself in the seat in front of Nelson.
The room remained silent as she calmly poured tea on her cup.
Nelson's eyebrows furrowed as he looked at her.
A scowl slowly formed on his face.
"Ms.Wilson, I must be lying if I told you that I wasn't surprised when I saw how much you've changed, and we only haven't seen each other for just a short time” he quipped.
Katherine generously accepted Nelson's remark.
"People have to change.By the way, thanks to the lessons your wife taught me in the past, I am able to become who I am today.Mrs.Cooper deserves half of the credit.Please send her my gratitude and regards,’ she smoothly said.
Nelson had been in the business industry for several years.
How could he not understand the meaning behind Katherine's words? He froze on his spot.
He immediately felt like he was sitting on hundreds of pins and needles, unable to move or escape.
He indeed was in deep trouble.
He even regretted reaching out to Future Technology.
If only he had known earlier that Summer wouldn't show herself to the meeting, he wouldn't have repeatedly asked to meet and discuss things with her.
He remembered when Katherine had just married Zack and became a member of the Colburn family.
Although he didn't say anything about her, his wife and daughter had often made things difficult for her.
With the situation he was currently in, a perfect saying for him would be, "Fortune knocks once at every man's door"
When Katherine noticed that Nelson didn't want to say anything after what she just had said, she grabbed the menu and flipped through it leisurely.
After scanning the pictures for a while, she finally decided to order two dishes.
Then, she raised her head and glanced at Nelson, who was quietly sitting in front of her.
"Power Wave Company's current market value is about two and a half billion to three billion.You, Mr.Cooper, only took out five percent of the shares, and now, you want us to invest three hundred million dollars.Do you honestly think that Future Technology's money just came out of nowhere?" Katherine drawled in a cold tone.
She got straight to the point, and no emotion could be read on her face.
Even an experienced businessman like Nelson didn't know what to reply to Katherine's question.
He just wanted to leave the place as fast as he could, but there was no more hope for Chesdale Corporation.
Future Technology was his only chance.
Even if his company survived this hurdle, it would be very difficult for him to move forward if Future Technology wouldn't accept the deal.
Katherine glanced at him briefly before turning her gaze to Celine.
The latter raised her hand and placed the already prepared acquisition report in front of Nelson.
"I actually have a suggestion, Mr.Cooper.How about...two hundred and fifty million dollars? Future Technology will directly acquire Power Wave Company with that amount.What do you think?"
Katherine asked as she looked at him.
"No...No, that's too unfair!"
Nelson immediately said.
Katherine clicked her tongue and sighed.
"Okay, Mr.Cooper.It seems like there's no need to continue this conversation.I won't eat anymore, so I'll go ahead."
Katherine stood up and glanced at Celine, who immediately got up to leave too.
They weren't too far from Nelson's table when Katherine stopped in her tracks.
She turned around and abruptly stared at him.
"By the way, Mr.Cooper’ she said in a mocking voice.
"Ms.Cooper seems to be quite free recently.If I were you, I would pay more attention to my daughter.Otherwise, something may happen to her, and you might regret it."
Without waiting for Nelson's reply, Katherine turned around and made her way to the restaurant's exit.
She was walking fast towards the door when she accidentally bumped into someone.
She raised her head, ready to apologize until she recognized that it was Zack.
