My Mommy Became A Billionaire After the Breakup

Chapter 85 Deal

Athena got over her anger from yesterday.

She had helped Byron with the information about this project before.

Byron was very interested.

Profit was not a problem.

It was just a matter of how much profit.

"Let's get straight to the point," Athena said flatly. "I have a general idea about your financial report for the past six months. Simply put, you have been losing money."

"Miss Newton, this has nothing to do with our overall strength. Last year, a department took on a bad project and suffered a disastrous loss at the beginning of the year. The financial report was affected!" Jack quickly explained.

His colleagues chimed in as well.

"Yes, Miss Newton, you can take a look. Our other projects have all been doing very well!"

"That's right. Otherwise, Mr. Crawford wouldn't have. considered partnering with us!"

They were all talking at once.

Byron didn't say anything.

He just looked at Athena, waiting for her to speak.

"Now, the industry is changing rapidly. Many big names have fallen on Wall Street in the past two years, let alone a small company like yours. Imbe Group has always been cautious. After all, it is a multi-billion contract. We only look at the data in front of us. A loss is a loss. Whether it's caused by a single project or several projects, it indicates poor management, right?" Athena said.

Jack was at a loss for words.

"Mr. Crawford's aunt has some personal connections with your chairman. Frankly speaking, if it weren't for this relationship, I would have suggested that Mr. Crawford choose a more reliable company," Athena continued.

Jack and his colleagues became anxious when they heard what

Athena said.

"It's not that serious. We have come this far in our discussion!"

"That's right, Miss Newton. Other companies may seem reliable on the surface, but who knows what's going on behind the scenes? At least you already have a thorough understanding of our company!" Athena didn't say anything.

She gestured to the assistant.

The assistant immediately turned on the projection.

"I have here an intended contract based on the business valuation of your company. Apart from the terms and conditions that bind both parties, the most important aspect is the amount of collaboration. Please take a look. If you think it's acceptable, we can continue our discussion," Athena said.

Jack and his colleagues craned their necks to read the contract.

They were taken aback by what they read.

"This femme fatale is so ruthless!

She cut the budget by one third just because of a poor financial report for one or two quarters.

Who can accept it?

Would Byron even do something like this?" They thought.

"Miss Newton, this... this budget is too low!" Jack said in a deep voice. "We are working together. You can't leave my company with zero profit, can you?"

"No. Imbe Group is not a bandit. Of course, this budget will leave room for profit for you. It's just not as big as you thought," Athena said. Chapter 85 Deal

Athena's grandmother once said, "The initial price is set high so that it can be negotiated down."

Both parties had the willingness to cooperate. Now, it all came down to the budget.

Jack and his colleagues were arguing passionately.

Athena remained steadfast and unmoved.

Jack and his colleagues kept going out to make phone calls, seeking advice from their higher-ups who were overseas and unable to come. They kept proposing new prices.

But their proposals were constantly rejected by Athena.

The negotiations went back and forth for countless rounds.

After struggling and exhausting all efforts, Jack finally proposed the budget that Athena had in mind.

"Deal," Athena said.

Jack was red-faced.

Looking at Athena, he wondered if he was hallucinating.

"Continuing the argument will only affect the harmony of our cooperation. Imbe Group will make a concession for the deal," Athena added.

Jack almost collapsed.

The contract went through some more processes before being finalized.

Finally, they managed to sign the contract before nightfall.
