A Ten-Percent Discount
Matthew smiled and said, “Relax. Don’t worry about it. Nothing is going to happen. President Sandel is
probably just scaring him. I assure you that everything will be fine after we meet up with him.”
Sasha nodded as she reached for her phone and called Leanna. After all, she still hadn’t taken dinner
and was planning to have it with Leanna, who agreed with her plan without hesitation.
Half an hour later, the three of them met up and settled down in a private room at Shanghai Nights
Restaurant. Then, Leanne looked around her and chuckled. “I’ve always heard about the Supreme
Room at Shanghai Nights Restaurant but never been here myself before. Thus, I can’t believe I’m
literally sitting right here now, thanks to you both. Alas! Mr. Wayne is a talented businessman, but
unfortunately, he is too conservative and rigid. I know the Supreme Room is only meant for Supreme
Members, but since there are only three Supreme access cards, this room is probably vacant most of the
time, isn’t it?”
Sasha smiled and said, “You have a different sense of discernment from others, President Sandel.”
Leanna laughed in response. “Come on, Sasha. Stop calling me ‘President Sandel’. In fact, I’m fine with
just ‘Leanna’. Look, I know you’ve only become a director yourself not long ago, so it’s understandable
that you’re still not acute in business, but given two years, you’ll be just like me.”
Sasha smiled and replied, “Well, I have a lot to learn from you, Leanna.”
As the three of them went about, Matthew and Sasha mentioned nothing about Tate. Thus, Leanna
decided not to bring it up until they were done with their meal. Then, she said with a smile, “I’ll order my
people to release Tate soon, but I want him to remember this message. Tell him to stay away from me! I
don’t want to see him wherever I go. Otherwise, he will not be so lucky next time. After all, my
bodyguards love to break limbs.”
Sasha nodded with a smile. “That serves him right.”
Leanna then shot a gaze at Matthew. “The deal with Gonzalez Corporation still stands, but I want the
price reduced by 10 percent!” In fact, she was aware that the price Jonah offered her was triple the rate it
should be. Nonetheless, she agreed to accept the offer at that time because of Matthew, although she
knew Jonah was going to take 10 out of 30 percent from the margin for himself. Therefore, she
demanded the price to be lowered by 10 percent to prevent Jonah from earning the margin difference as
a punishment for his son’s flirty behavior.
When Matthew and Sasha got home, they told their family members about the news that put Jonah on
edge. “W-What? Why did she want the price to be reduced by 10 percent when the deal was already
made? Didn’t… you beg President Sandel?”
Upon hearing that, Sasha glared at the man and challenged him. “Why didn’t you beg her yourself, Uncle
Jonah? Your son was the one who teased Leanna and pissed her off, so what do you expect? In fact, a
10-percent discount seems pretty lenient to me because if I had been in her position, I would have just
turned you down without hesitation!”
As Jonah was about to respond, Sasha abrasively waved her hand. “That’s enough. We did our best,
and this is what we get, so live with it. If you’re still not satisfied, I could always call Leanna for you and
tell her to forget about our discussion today because you’d love to speak with her yourself tomorrow.
How does that sound?”
Speechless, Jonah was seen with his mouth wide agape without saying a single word. After all, he knew
he was in no position to bargain with Leanna. Thus, he helplessly let out a sigh, his eyes filled with rage
and exasperation.
With our initial agreed offer, I was about to make myself a huge fortune that would allow me to buy
houses and cars in Eastcliff. Besides, I was so close to being Gonzalez Corporation’s president in
Cathay until my ‘filial’ son created a big mess. Thanks to him, I just lost a good chance to make myself
rich and a career-changing opportunity to be a corporate president!
At the thought of that, Jonah blamed Tate on the inside and slammed the table in anger. “Move out now!
Bring that bastard home!”
