Chapter 4
Chapter 4:.
The next day, in a coffee shop...
Stella had already organized all the documents and had asked the RK Group’s director of negotiations to meet her in the
cafeteria.
While she was waiting, a man in a black suit and gold-rimmed glasses approached. But when he approached and saw Stella, he
made a shocked face.
Stella also looked at the person in front of her and was also surprised. Because the one in front of her was RK’s assistant, Alex
Tristan.
For a moment, they were both silent. It was Stella who took the initiative and said, “Long time no see.”
Alex listened to her words and quickly regained his composure. He nodded and sat down. Stella didn’t waste much time and got
straight to the point. “Mr. Tristan, here are the documents. If you find them satisfactory, please sign them.”
As he spoke, he placed the documents in front of him. Alex looked at the eye-catching price of 70 million and was dumbfounded.
“Miss Richard, the RK Group can only offer 40 million. Your company’s asking price is too high.”
Stella didn’t want to sign this contract from the beginning. She would never allow this man to become her boss. She felt she was
wasting her time at RK Group and should look for another company.
“Okay, but we can’t sign this contract,” she said, gathering her things and deciding to leave.
Alex saw that she was about to leave and that she wasn’t interested in this deal, and he panicked. He ran to her and stopped
her. “Miss Richard, hold on, please. Let me call and ask again for the price.”
Stella paused and nodded, “Of course.”
Alex stepped aside and made a call.
In the office of the General Director of the RK Group...
RK was sitting in the main chair, listening to a report from the marketing department, when his phone rang. RK looked at the
phone and hung up. He didn’t like to be disturbed at work.
But after a few seconds, it rang again.

The people in the office saw his cold expression and shivered. They had the feeling that the person on the other end was about
RK picked up the phone and asked, “What’s wrong?” His voice was cold.
Alex reported the situation to the other side.
“Tell them it’s not going to happen. 70 million is too much; they’re not worth it.” By the time he finished speaking, he was about to
hang up.
But Alex said something that made him pause for a moment. His fingers tapped the table and, after a minute, he replied, “Okay,
then let’s agree on 70 million.”
Then he paused and added, “Tell him to come to the company and explain to me personally why he is worth 70 million.” After
speaking, he hung up the phone.
In her deep blue eyes were unfamiliar emotions. The people in the marketing department heard her words and were surprised.
“The CEO is going to personally sign the contract.”
“Is that negotiation really worth his visit?” Besides, they knew that in this negotiation, Kingston did not need to be personally
involved. They all had question marks on their faces.
Alex was not too far away, so Stella could hear parts of their conversation. She heard Alex communicate her name directly to the
person on the other end of the phone.
In only three minutes...
“Ms. Richard, wait! Mr. Kingston said they have no problem with your price. The agreement should be set up according to your
company’s plan. Let’s quickly sign the agreement so that no one can back out.”
When he finished speaking, he pulled out the documents, signed his name and handed the pen to Stella. Seeing his arrogant
attitude, as if he had already bought her company, Stella was a little taken aback. She stared at the pen in a daze.
She had not expected the agreement between the two companies to be so smooth and easy. Stella felt she had made her
position clear by not lowering the price and standing firm in her decision.
But who would have thought that RK would be even more determined than she was to acquire the company? She even agreed
to sign the contract at her price.
“Didn’t he pride himself on never changing his decisions, no matter what? So why did he change this?” he thought. “Was it
because, after living with the love of his life, he changed?”
But it didn’t matter... what could she do now? Stella took the pen and signed her name. She didn’t care anymore.
She wasn’t going to stay here anyway. Normally, she didn’t want him to become her boss, but what could she do? She needed to
Alex returned the documents to their place, shook her hand and said, “Miss Richard, from now on we are colleagues in the same
company. Please take care of us in the future.”
Stella merely gave him a forced smile. Only she and God knew how much she didn’t want that man to be her boss.
Alex looked at her and added, “Miss Richard, please hurry back to the company. Mr. Kingston will be there in a little while. He
says he wants me to explain personally how his company is worth 70 million.”
He also didn’t know why his boss wanted Miss Richard to do it personally, after what had happened before between them. But as
an assistant, she could only do what she was told to do.
Back to the company...
Stella was sitting in the car, but her mind was filled with thoughts of how RK would soon become her boss. “Ahhh! Stella, you’re
the best. You just signed the contract as soon as you showed up!”
The one who spoke was the assistant manager of the company. “Stella, you don’t know this, but before you came, Mr. Paul sent
a lot of people to negotiate with Mr. Kingston, but he just kept lowering the price.”
He hugged Stella and said happily, “Stella, you are our lucky star.”
Stella just lowered her head and didn’t speak because it wasn’t what she wanted.
Lily continued, “Stella, you just got back, so you probably don’t know much about the city, do you?”.
As she spoke, she leaned into Stella’s ear and whispered, “Let me tell you, Mr. Kingston is the most handsome man in X City.
He’s not only handsome, he’s rich and capable. He is the dream man for many women in the world...”
Stella heard his words and was speechless.
“I heard he used to have a fiancée, but he left her six years ago,” Lily said.
“Didn’t he marry his sister?”
Stella couldn’t believe they weren’t married yet.
Hadn’t he given her a divorce because he wanted to marry her sister? She thought they should be married by now, have children
and live happily together.
“Stella, here you are...”
When Jack heard that Stella had reached an agreement with the RK Group, he personally came to welcome her with a big smile
on his face.
“Stella, you have not disappointed me. Quick, go to the meeting room and sit down for a while. Mr. Kingston will be here soon
and you will come with me to welcome him.”
