Chapter 843 A Business Collaboration
When Nicholas heard this, his smile deepened somewhat. Tessa doesn’t know her actual relationship with Greg, but she really has his interests in mind at the moment, he thought. “You don’t have to worry about this. I’ve had everything arranged. The teacher will probably be there tomorrow.”
Tessa was surprised. On the other hand, she felt it was quite tough for the man to take everything into consideration. “Thanks a lot.” She gave him a sweet smile.
Nicholas replied with a tender expression, “It’s part of my duty.”
The two then chatted for another while before Nicholas urged, “It’s getting late already. Hurry and go to sleep.”
Worried, Tessa said, “Remember to have a good rest, then. Don’t get too busy and skip your meals.”
Nicholas nodded with a smile. After hanging up, he put down his cell phone and began to deal with the documents.
A while later, Edward knocked on the door and came in. He reported respectfully, “President Sawyer, Miss Muller is here.”
Nicholas frowned with a look of annoyance in his eyes. “What is she doing here again?” Even so, he had Edward lead her inside.
Wanda scrutinized her appearance in the mirror inside the quiet elevator. The more she looked at it, the more satisfied she was, and her fiery red lips curved into a beautiful smile. She had made a special effort to go home and change into a dress in order to see Nicholas today. Although it was a winter dress, its figure-hugging design set off her attractive figure. As a result, she looked graceful, intelligent, and charming while appearing even gentler and more delicate than usual.
She attached such importance to the meeting because she knew that Tessa had returned to Vienna with Gregory a few days ago. Now that the eyesore was gone, she knew that now was her chance. “No matter what, I’m the only person who can stand by Nicholas’ side. I’m the best person for him!” she vowed with determination in front of the mirror.
As soon as she finished her sentence, the elevator door opened with a Ding!
Standing upright outside the elevator, Edward said politely, “Miss Muller, this way, please.”
Wanda nodded slightly before gracefully following him to the president’s office in her high heels.
When she entered the office and saw the man who looked as noble as an emperor behind the desk, she almost failed to conceal the look of adoration in her eyes. Luckily, the instant he looked up, she quickly suppressed her feelings. “Sorry for bothering you again, Nicholas,” she said, greeting him with a giggle while trying her best to show her best self.
Nicholas nodded coldly before asking in a businesslike tone, “What brings you here today?”
Wanda would be lying if she were to say she wasn’t hurt by the fact that the man was unmoved by her beauty. Inwardly, she was greatly disappointed. Am I that incomparable to that Tessa woman? Despite her inner exasperation, she kept smiling. “The thing is, I’ve negotiated a few business deals lately, but I think these business deals might be too much for my company, so I’d like to collaborate with you.”
Ever since her father knew that she had started her own company in the country, he had pulled some strings and helped her secure quite a few projects. It was just that these projects were huge, so it was impossible for her company to develop them independently with its current abilities. Because of that, she thought of developing these projects with Nicholas. Not only would she and Nicholas be able to get in touch more often, but Nicholas and the older members of the Sawyer Family would also see her capabilities.
Nicholas was unaware of these things. However, seeing how Wanda proposed a business collaboration between them with a straight face, he slowly suppressed his impatience. “Did you bring the project proposals with you?”
“I did. Please take a look at them.” Wanda’s beautiful eyes flickered as she handed the proposals she had brought with her to him.
Nicholas read the proposals carefully with his head down. After all, not every project would be accepted by the Sawyer Group. To his surprise, though, the business deals secured by Wanda’s company were huge. There were already many business groups that had sought to collaborate with the company, but Wanda turned them down in the end.
A few minutes later, he finished reading all the proposals. Taking the profit into consideration, he thought he could collaborate with her.
