Chapter 166 165. 60 Billions
"Why is your Madam not here yet? It\'s been over a half hour."
Dick after having a "talk" with Sandra, could not wait any longer to fix this deal at the mall. So he could start controlling Sandra with it.
Her every action should be monitored, He had to find out about the man she was seeing and end him once and for all.
It\'s just that the legendary Madam he was waiting for is yet to come, making him feel disrespected by making him wait for this long.*Gulp*
Roger too was becoming anxious, This is free money, This stupid my come here ready to be slaughtered, Paying nearly double the price for losing business, He can\'t let this go.
The commission of this deal is in the millions for him, So he is worried about Madam Gayler not coming here soon.
"Ohh, So Mr. Dick\'s time is more important than mine? I am so sorry to waste your time, If you want as a punishment we can discard this deal. What do you think Mr. Dick, Do you like this apology of mine?"
Suddenly sarcastic words were heard by two of them. They quickly turn around just to see a mature beauty walking towards them.
For a moment Dick\'s heart skipped a beat. He knew that Madam Gayler though is a widowed mother but is quite a charming woman but he never expected to be this charming and seductive.
There was raw passion radiating from her body, Her every action was seductive, Even if she was simply walking her wide waist shaking side by side showing her vastness.
\'*Gulp* How can this woman be this beautiful? She is even more-... No, she is not, Sandra is just too different and special, I can\'t compare this woman to Sandra.\'
Dick was lost in thoughts, Which was reasonable as right now Isabella\'s charm is enhanced by the Netori halo of Alex, Currently, Isabella though being a widow, mother and woman still becomes a prime candidate for pursue by other men.
But ML\'s nature quickly comes in as Dick starts to become attracted to Isabella, The attractiveness he had to Isabella just vanished out of thin air and increased his obsessiveness for Sandra.
Still, Dick was speechless, He never thought that he will be tongue-tied by the beauty of a woman, This was impossible before but now it was happening.
"*Ahem* I am really sorry Madam Gayler, Please don\'t mind my words, See me as a junior and forgive me."
Dick was finally able to snap out of his trance and spoke to Isabella standing in front of him. He thought taken aback for a second there but now he wants more than ever to buy this mall.
His domineering ML side is leaking into his own, Now he is ready to pay whatever price he needs to get this mall, and His OCD of control is getting out of control.
"Well you are a junior, So I will give you an offer, 50 Billion UC and this mall is yours. Did we have a deal?"
Isabella did not mind his rudeness. Rather she was glad he was rude to her, After all, It will look bad slapping a smiling face. Now she can increase the price how high she wants without worrying at all.
Don\'t judge her though, She is a pure businesswoman right now, Seeing her self-interest first is the first step to being successful in the business.
She had her own network of information, So she knew why he wanted to buy the mall. Before she might be confused about it and just sell the mall thinking he was doing it on a fluke but not now.
After being with Alex, She knew how much love can push someone to do crazy things, So seeing an opportunity, She strikes it down to learn 10 billion UC extra.
"Wait?! The deal was about 40 Billion, We both know this place is a sinking boat, And only worth 25 Billion, So why now increase the price? Are you not afraid that I backed out from the deal?"
Dick was taken aback, He was already not in his right mind when talking to her now her saying this threw him off guard making him break an unspoken rule of saying too much.
In the deal the less you say the more likely you will strike a good deal but he broke that golden rule, So he by default goes on being a weak party in this deal, He too realised it but it\'s now too late to regret now.
"I am so sorry, Mr. Dick. You are right, this is a sinking ship. Each year it will lose its value. As a senior in the business, I can\'t scam my junior like this, So the deal is off. Tell your mother I asked about her."
Isabella doubles down on the Dicks claim as this mall is a sinking ship, She was not afraid to admit it as she knows profit was not the thing Dick was after, It was something else.
If before Dick just said a simple price like a 20-25 Billion UC, Isabella did not waste time with him and just sold the mall to him but he in arrogance offered 40 Billion, Which showed her and how much important this thing is to him and how far she can push his bottom line.
This is normally not supposed to happen, Normally Roger could not see the opportunity to earn more and just sell the mall to Dick for huge profits but thanks to Alex\'s interference, Things changed.
A woman who knew how to do business was put in front of ML, Who was just wetted his foot in this field, So of course she was easily able to exploit his weakness of his.
".....We can discuss about it."
Dick clenched his fists as he spoke in a weakened voice, The things he feared to happen, He should have given a low price to Roger but at that moment he wanted to prove to that gigolo and show his power to Sandra.
So he said the sky-high price for this broken mall. He knew there is no profit here, Heck he will be suffering losses if he buys this place even at the official price of 25 billion UC, But he was able to afford that loss, It was worth it.
Paying 15 Billion UC extra, So he can torture Sandra every day? That sounded like a deal but now the situation is different.
He could just pay 10 Billion UC extra but he knew this is not the end of This lion oping her mouth It just begging, If he agreed then he will sink into the rabbit hole.
So he wanted to discuss, Creating an illusion of a bottom line in front of them so she will hesitate to do something drastic. He hoped she would fall for this tick or he was to bleed quite a lot today.
He could not change his plan of buying this mall, He was sure of it. He has to do 24-hour constant monitoring of Sandra, So he is at least trying to save his losses.
"No!? Do you not want it? Why would you? After all, as you said this business is a sinking ship, I have to suffer losses in the millions just to keep this place running. Okay boy once again say hi to your mother, Have a nice day."
Unfortunately for Dick, Isabella is a veteran in this business field, She knew all tricks and such. Plus she already knew this was not the extent of Dick, In love, people lose their bottom line.
If she can she can even push him a little to spend 1-4 Billion UC extra If she played her cards right, But she decided not to as his mother is her old friend.
It\'s okay to practically scam him for 25 Billion UC but she can\'t do too much, She had to give his mother some face.
So Isabella just said it and turned around to leave.
"Wait!!! 50 Billion, I will pay 50 Billion UC not more than that, Do we have a deal?"
Dick panicked, He had to buy this mall, His whole being telling him that this is a way that he can conquer Sandra\'s body and mind, So seeing this opportunity slipping away, He was desperate to grab it.
He called out to Isabella, Who stopped walking with a smug smile on her lips, Then she quickly made her face friendly and turned around.
She made a profit of 25 Billion today. Not much but it\'s the first step towards being worthy enough for Alex. She was thinking about bringing him on a date at some expensive place, Totally forgetting about Nathan\'s matter.
Dick was relaxed seeing her stopping, He gave her the bottom line, So she will not do too much, Now he just wanted to complete this deal as soon as possible and make Sandra pay for his trouble.
Don\'t be surprised by his nature towards Sandra, Most ML related to this genre is like this in the initial stage, Even with forceful sexual reaction is not off the table, So this is a pretty common thing for ML.
"Madam Gaylee, Do we have a deal?"
Dick once again said stretching his hand towards Isabella to finalise this deal once and for all.
"Ohh, We do- "
"I want to buy this mall for 60 Billion UC."
Isabella though not going to shake his hand was ready to verbally agree to this deal but suddenly a voice came making her halt her action.
