Chapter 1596
Hendrix had always been that way. He did things wlessly, leaving no chance for his opponent to
react at all.
Sean got up and made a phone call. After returning, he epted Hendrix''s conditions as expected.
After signing the agreement, he left with his assistants as if they had lost a battle.
As soon as they left, it was only me and Hendrix left in the conference room.

"Stop pretending. There''s no one here anymore." I reached out and pped Hendrix''s hand off my
belly. "Don''t take advantage of me!"
Hendrix shrugged his shoulders resentfully. Obviously, he was not happy. Men were never satisfied.
I thought about the unwilling look in Sean''s eyes when he left the conference room, andpared it
to when I first met him as he came gentlemanly. He lookedpletely different, making me feel
flustered. I still felt that GW Group was not that simple. I couldn''t help but doubt our future
coboration, asking, "Are you really going to continue working with them?" "What do you think?"
Hendrix replied as he leaned back in his chair casually.
Guessing each other''s thoughts seemed to have be amon thing between the two of us. I
sighed and reluctantly went along with him, saying, "I think you don''t seem to have any other
choices since the agreement has been made?"
Hendrixughed, "You said that you didn''t want to see me anymore, but now you''re still hanging out
with me in bed every day, right?"
"Hendrix Roberts!" I picked up the only thing on the table, which was a fountain pen, and threw it at
him with a deadly re.
Ever since we had been together, Hendrix had be more and more shameless!
Hendrix was quick to catch it. He swirled it in his hand like it was a toy. He was not threatened by
me at all. Instead, he said casually with a hint of smug, "The agreement only says to prioritize GW
Group. It doesn''t mention that Roberts Group will definitely cooperate with them. If there''s a better
choice at that time, we''ll just have to say that the twopany''s vision differs, or just any other
excuse to get rid of them. What''s there to worry about?"
"So you''re just fooling around with them?" I was a little surprised.
Who could have a say in the ever- changing business world? If one wanted to make sure everything
was under control, he had to have high adaptability. I had seen Hendrix speak in a strict manner or
lowering his stance in the face of those bigpanies, but it was the first time I saw him making a
fool of them. It was quite interesting.
"Who says that the boss of a listedpany can''t go back on things?" he said. Hendrix got up and
carefully protected me as we walked outside, as if I was really pregnant. As we walked, he
continued to say, "Do you really think that GW Group is any better than me for giving in so much?
The truth is, even the tiniest share of a listedpany can make a big difference in terms of
authority. If I give in 15%, I can still be in control. If I give up 5% more, I would have to worry
endlessly that they might be able to fully take control of Roberts Group. When ites to this kind
of matter, I am more careful than anyone else. GW Group is the one who''s framing us. I have given
them a verbal agreement, which is more than enough to avoid a conflict between the two
companies."
I nodded thoughtfully. Even though there were some areas I didn''t quite understand, there was one
thing that I definitely agreed with. Judging from Sean''s true side, he was indeed no different from a
bandit. Coborating with someone like that would get us into big trouble sooner orter.
While we were talking, we had already arrived at the elevator. Este was also following us and
pressed the elevator button for us.
The matter with GW Group finally came to an end, and I had nothing more to worry about. I went
along with Hendrix''s instructions and returned home.
In the car, Este sat next to the driver while I sat alone in the back seat. Although we had quite a
good rtionship before, no one spoke to each other on the road that day.
