That afternoon, Sheridan had sent someone to seek cooperation with Nathaniel, offering very generous
terms with the intention of resolving the conflict between the Hadley and Stone families.
Nathaniel wasn’t a pushover. After browsing through the agreement, he turned the liaison officer away
and bluntly expressed his disinterest in the project Sheridan offered.
Sheridan thought Nathaniel was unsatisfied with the proposed revenue distribution, so he immediately
had someone draft another new agreement and deliver it to Nathaniel. However, the outcome was the
same. Nathaniel rejected the proposition after taking just a glance at the document.
Sheridan was unable to fathom Nathaniel’s intention, so after carefully weighing the pros and cons, he
decided to talk to Nathaniel in person.
Nathaniel told Sheridan he would only agree to a face to face discussion under one condition Sheridan
had to first deal with the mess made by Barnaley and Anure and provide Timothy with a reasonable
explanation
With that, Sheridan cooled down considerably. Then, he relayed a message to Nathaniel, saying he
would take that matter seriously. Subsequently, there weren’t any more responses from Sheridan
Nathaniel was finally able to lure Sheridan into the trap he had meticulously spent a long time setting
up Since that matter concerned Christina, Nathaniel placed extra effort into ensuring its success.
“Mr. Stone held a meeting with the senior executives overnight, probably preparing for how to maximize
his interest in the negotiation with you.”
“The Stone family is really full of cunning old foxes,” Nathaniel uttered derisively.
Sheridan had no intention to cooperate with the Hadley family, but for the sake of restoring the Stone
family’s reputation, he was making decisions against his own will.
Barnaby had been shrewd for most of his life, but he ultimately risked ruining the hard work of his entire
life because of an old lover.
Nathaniel figured it hadn’t been easy for Sheridan to hold on all by himself until now. Still, the business
world values abilities and tactics. Benevolence won’t bring any benefit. Besides, I’m not someone who
enjoys showing others kindness anyway.
“Snatch all the projects the Stone family is interested in. It looks like verbal warnings aren’t impactful
enough. We need to take some action to teach them a memorable lesson.”
