His Domineering Lover
Chapter 598

Tracey was kind of surprised. She didn't expect Nina would be so forthcoming about her feelings for Adam.

Sadly, she didn't appreciate it.

She stirred the coffee again and replied in a light tone.

"Ms. Austin, I believe you have a crush on Adam, but... I think you put profit before love.

"Men are just a relief to you, not a necessity. It seems to me that you don't like him enough to want to work with him.

"What do you mean?" Nina looked directly at this young girl, who was way much maturer than she had thought.

Tracey chuckled. "I think you know what I mean."

"I don't!"

"Ms. Austin, you're indeed smarter than me, but I'm not an idiot.

"Well, since you're playing numb, I'll just say it.

"You said he could make a lot of money working with you, and you even deigned to come to me for him."

"It sounds reasonable that you did this because you like him and you don't want him to lose this opportunity.

"But his sudden withdrawal in the middle of a deal is a big no-no in the business world.

"Honesty is the most important thing to businessmen. They hate working with dishonest people.

"You guys weren't officially partners when he quit, but he still broke his promise.

"You're a proud woman. I cam imagine how much you hate dishonesty, and what he did pushed your boundaries. "You hate him and even want to kill him. Even though you have a crush on him, you wouldn't have come here for him. "So there must be a reason for you to swallow your pride and come to us.

"It's profit, right? Businessmen are not driven by love, they are driven by profit.

"You're a smart woman, Ms. Austin. You should have given up on Adam when he decided to quit this project for me.

"You know that it's impossible for you to separate us. Smart people won't waste time on impossible things, because time is money.

"Even if you didn't want to, you gave up on him. Like I said, love is not important to you. You won't lose your mind for it.

"If he were not Adam, you might have blocked him the second he left. As the queen of business, your pride does not allow you to work with people who break their promises. "But what did you actually do? You came to me and tried to get me to convince him to continue working with you.

"I was just wondering why you did it. If not out of love, then what's it?

"There's only one answer. The client of this project wants to work with Adam. Without Adam, you're gonna lose this deal "You know how profitable this project is. There's no way you're willing to give it up.

"So you panicked when Adam left. Without him, the whole deal would go bust, and your ambition would not be fulfilled.

"That was why you tried to change his mind at any cost. Ms. Austin, am I right?"

Tracey's speech left Nina speechless. She couldn't believe that this girl could read her mind.

Nina applauded for her. "Awesome. I finally understand why Adam loves you so much. Turns out you're not so bad after all."

"You know what? I'm more awesome than you think. Just because I keep my mouth shut doesn't mean I know nothing.

"Your business is in Paris. Why would you suddenly offer to work with Adam? You said you wanted to expand into our country, but Adam's not your only choice." "You suspected me from the beginning?" Nina didn't see that coming.

"Well, at that time, I was just guessing. Working with you is helpful to Adam, so I didn't stop him.

"I don't care if he's gonna change his mind, I just hate it when you create the illusion that you're doing this for his good.

"Nina, neither Adam nor I am a fool. He loves me not because I'm pretty or something. He loves me because I'm me."

At this moment, Tracey's aura was so strong that even Nina was covered in her light.

When Tracey was with Adam, they wouldn't waste time on talking about work. No amount of money was more precious than their time together.

Tracey couldn't stand Nina tricking her and Adam. This seemingly superior woman wanted to profit from them, but acted as if she was giving them alms. It was just gross. Adam was not Nina's pawn, and either was

Tracey. Moreover, Tracey was not in the mood to watch Nina act.

"Tracey, I underestimated you. Well, let me tell you something. You're right. The client wants Adam.

"He has something to do with the Xiao family. I reached out to Adam after looking into the Xiao family. At first, he accepted my offer.

"Men are all ambitious. It's a win-win situation. I would give him what he wanted, and he would close the deal.

"According to the plan, we'd divide the profits fairly. But you ruined all this. He gave it up for you, but I can't.

"As you said, working with me is helpful to him. He refused to see me, so here I am." Nina stopped playing dumb. Tracey chuckled. "Ms. Austin, so you're here to beg me?"

"Yes, I beg you!" In the old days, Nina would never have tolerated such rudeness from a young girl. However, Tracey was more than a young girl!

Tracey leaned back into her chair, looking languid. "Since you're begging me, shouldn't you be a bit humble?" She looked at Nina and asked word by word.
