Chapter 307 Love Her Tsundere Expression to Death
Calista immediately snuggled up close to Axel, "Axel, I don't want to apologize to her. At worst, I'll just transfer her another million dollars. She's after money anyway, right?"
She first acted cute with Axel, then glared at Emily, "I won't apologize. How about I give you an extra million dollars? You're just after money anyway."
Daniel saw that Calista showed no remorse and seemed to want to humiliate people with money.
A murderous look flashed in his cold eyes, "Calista, you've got some nerve!"
"Then add another two million dollars, no, three million dollars... Emily, don't push your luck!"
Although she was somewhat afraid of Daniel, thinking about having the Day family and the Stevens family backing her up, she became more confident and continued raising the price.
Daniel's face turned cold, and the atmosphere around him grew icy.
It seemed like the next moment would be Calista's end.
Emily sensed Daniel's anger on her behalf. Her soft hand grasped his.
Her eyes silently told him not to bother anymore.
Daniel only felt the hand holding his burning hot, an electric current flowing from his palm through his entire body. He remained silent.
Silently supporting whatever decision Emily made.
"Three million dollars, sure! Who would turn down money? After all, even if you apologize, it probably wouldn't be sincere anyway. And I wouldn't accept your apology either, so money is more practical!"
Emily spoke bluntly.
Although it seemed she was really being greedy for money.
But many smart people present actually agreed with Emily's approach.
They even considered Emily's way of handling things smart.
First, with Axel backing Calista, Emily didn't need to offend people, so it was better to quit while ahead.
Second, continuing to argue wasn't as practical as just taking the money.
"Kaia, you have their contact information, right?"
Emily turned to Kaia and said.
Kaia didn't understand but showed her support, "I have them all. You need them?"
"I'll send you my account number later. Just send it to everyone who participated in the bet today. Make sure every cent gets paid. Oh, and if they don't pay, I have recordings, and lawyers!"
"I'll arrange it for you!"
"I'll find one."
"Use my family's lawyers, whatever you need!"
Three voices rang out simultaneously.
They were Daniel's, Aaron's, and Kaia's respectively.
Now Emily didn't need to say anything more. With these three representing three powerful families behind them, those people immediately behaved and said they'd transfer the money as soon as they got the account number.
Calista felt so embarrassed now. If she stayed any longer, how could she face anyone?
So she angrily pulled Axel to leave.
Axel was still Calista's fiancé. Calista's reputation also represented his reputation, so naturally he couldn't just abandon her at this time, so he left with her too.
While Emily and Calista were negotiating over the bet, Zoey had already made her way to the side of the person she wanted to meet.
Deliberately flattering and praising!
Then drinking.
She didn't even notice Calista and the others leaving. She thought she was handling things smoothly, drinking with several men, her face flushed red, still able to chat and laugh with several men.
Zoey took the opportunity to speak, "I heard your new project is looking for investors. Now that we're friends, I'm giving you friendly advice - you could consider the Smith Group. They have strong capital, and the person in charge, Mr. Smith, has a sharp eye and is very generous with good projects. He can also give you a lot of say. What do you think, Mr. Liang?"
As Zoey spoke, she raised her glass again, clinked it with the other person, and drank it all in one gulp, "I'll drink first, Mr. Cooper, you drink too."
Wayne was new to business.
But to have gotten this far, to get his company listed and attend such events, he was naturally someone capable.
For the sake of Zoey drinking it all, he symbolically took a sip.
Then he heard Zoey's next sentence, "By drinking, you've agreed to my proposal. How about this - I'll introduce you to Mr. Smith."
Wayne's eyes flashed, a smile floating on the surface, "Of course the project needs both parties to sit down and discuss before making a decision. I naturally can't make the decision alone."
Zoey seemed not to hear Wayne's words. Her face was red, her body swaying as she pulled Wayne toward the second floor rest area.
In a crowd, the person you can see at a glance must be the person you care about most.
Zoey really liked Daniel, and Daniel was naturally a dragon among men, standing out from the crowd. She spotted him in the crowd at a glance.
She hurriedly walked toward Daniel.
Even to take credit, she automatically ignored Emily beside Daniel and hurriedly spoke, "Daniel, this is Mr. Cooper. His new project is really good and he wants to discuss cooperation with you. You two should sit down and have a good talk."
Zoey's expression of taking credit couldn't be hidden.
She was actually a bit drunk, so she didn't hide any of this.
She even subconsciously wanted to get close to Daniel, wanting to tell him in his ear, "See, I'm the one who can be your good helper. I know you're interested in this project and really want to cooperate, so I introduced it to you."
When Zoey got close to Daniel, Emily saw Daniel's disgust. She instinctively pulled him closer to her, not letting Zoey touch Daniel.
But she did hear everything Zoey said.
Emily's eyes flashed.
Then she took the initiative to speak to Wayne, "Mr. Cooper, I've heard so much about you. I also know something about your company, especially your current new project about artificial intelligence AI. I have some insights too."
Wayne had already had a bad impression of the Smith Group after being dragged here by Zoey to meet Daniel, and actually had no desire to continue talking.
But when Emily smiled, she was really someone who understood AI.
In just a few sentences, Wayne felt like he'd met a kindred spirit and had the desire to continue talking.
He even felt like they'd met too late, but because it wasn't the right occasion, he immediately took the initiative to get Emily's contact information, hoping to have a chance to continue talking later.
Emily wanted exactly this effect. After they exchanged contact information, they parted ways.
The whole process was under Zoey's watchful eyes.
Zoey's mind went from initially being confused to seeing Emily so smoothly get what she couldn't get even after drinking so much. For a moment, she actually felt ashamed of herself.
And self-doubt!
Could it be that she really wasn't as good as Emily?
How could Emily know so much?
Under the influence of alcohol, emotions were amplified.
That's why Zoey had such brief self-doubt and reflection.
Emily had already withdrawn her gaze from seeing Wayne off and looked at Zoey.
She deliberately snorted at Zoey with pride, "Ms. King, that's not how you discuss cooperation. It's not about drinking a few glasses and a woman moving between several men, but about real benefits and conditions that can truly move people."
After speaking, she looked at Daniel again and deliberately said, "Wasn't I amazing just now?"
She did this deliberately.
Not because she really put herself in the role of Daniel's lover.
But to show Zoey.
The more jealous Zoey got, the faster she would advance her own plans, and the more likely she would make mistakes that they could catch.
Daniel absolutely loved Emily's proud little expression.
He had never felt as satisfied as he did now.
"You were great, you're my best partner!"
Daniel's words were simply an insult to Zoey.
