Chapter 166
When Gary met Neil’s cold gaze, he immediately said, “No… Due to the recent reorganization, it looks
like Anderson Corporation is leaning toward MY Corporation. If you can help us, it would be a lot faster
for us to get on the right track.”
Neil contemted for a while before he sternly said, “Alright, I’ll settle this. Get back to work.”
After the employeesChapter 165
Silvia smiled. “Freshen up and get some rest. I have work in the morning.”
“I’m not working for now. Can I stay here with you in the meantime? Don’t worry. I’ll pay rent!”
“We’re so close. There’s no need for rent.‘
“Thank you very much.”
I had made breakfast by the time Silvia went downstairs the next morning.
“You don’t have to wake up early and make breakfast. I can simply grab something on the way to
work.”
I passed her a bun and said, “No way. I can’t just leech off of you. From now on, I’ll make you
breakfast and dinner!”
“There’s really no need for that.”
I immediately added, “I’ve made up my mind. If you won’t let me pay rent, you have to let me
prepare your meals. Since I have to prepare my own meals, it’s no big deal for me to prepare yours as
well.”
Silvia had no choice but to agree. “Alright. But you can stop anytime if you’re tired.”
“Alright! Hurry up and have your breakfast before you leave for work.”
“Sure.”
Silvia headed to MY Corporation after that.
Thepany was currently bidding on a big project. If they managed to secure this project, MY
Corporation would experience wonderful growth in theing year.
Dulcie approached Silvia with some files in her hands when she reached the office.
“Miss Pond, Perficient is bidding on this project too. They’ve already connected with Anderson
Corporation.”
Silvia frowned when she heard this. Perficient was a fashion arm under Remus Corporation, which
focused on luxury goods. This project was incredibly important for MY Corporation, but it was
dispensable to Perficient.
However, since Neil and Ryan were friends, MY Corporation might not stand a chance if Perficient
really wanted the project.
“Try to find out why Perficient is suddenly interested in this project.”
Was Neil trying to settle the score because she rejected his acquisition request?
She immediately denied the possibility. She knew him, and he would not do that to MY Corporation.
After Dulcie left, Silvia hesitated for a while before she called her secretary.
“Make an appointment with the CEO of Anderson Corporation.”
Dulcie had hired two secretaries for Silvia–Joe Miller and Eva White. Both of them had three working
experiences, so it was easy for them to adapt.
years of
Eva was in charge of administrative work while Joe was involved in business appointments. Silvia
would even bring him along.
Soon after, Joe came over to give her an update.
“Miss Pond, Mr. Anderson is free after 8 p.m. tomorrow.”
She nodded. “Alright. Please make a dinner reservation with Mr. Anderson.”
Meanwhile, Curtis was giving Neil an update on Perficient in his office. He furrowed his eyebrows as he
said, “Perficient’s business has been going downhill in the past few years. In addition, the management
is chaotic. It’s basically a mess… If you pass it to Miss Pond, it’ll probably go bankrupt in six months.”
Neil remained silent for a while before he sternly said, “Set up a meeting with Perficient’s
management!”
“Alright, Mr. Remus.‘
That morning, Neil fired more than half of the management team. The remaining members were
extremely afraid that he would call them out.
After that, he restructured the management team and their respective job roles. “If Perficient remains
the same after half a month, you should hand in your resignation!” he said coldly.
The newly appointed general manager, Gary Whitman, carefully said, “Mr. Remus, we’ve been bidding
on a project recently. It’s a coboration with one of the fabric manufacturingpanies under
Anderson Corporation. If we manage to sign the deal, Perficient will save a few billion dors. But we’re
a littlete to the game, and MY Corporation might win the bid instead.”
“Are you asking me to negotiate this deal for you?” Neil asked in dissatisfaction.
of Perficient left, he gave Ryan a call.
“Hello, Neil. Is there something you want to talk about?”
“Yes. Is one of thepanies under Anderson Corporation coborating with MY Corporation?”
Ryan was surprised to hear Neil ask about such a trivial matter. “I’ll ask my secretary,” he replied.
Soon, Ryan received the information he needed.
“MY Corporation does intend to coborate with us. If nothing goes wrong, we’ll sign the contract in a
few days. Why do you ask?”
“Can you award the project to Perficient instead?”
Ryan was taken aback, and he asked, “How will it benefit us?”
“Anderson Corporation will be able to develop thend in East City as well.”
He was truly shocked, and he started to take the conversation more seriously.
“Why are you suddenly concerned about a smallpany under Remus Corporation?”
Neil was expressionless. “I n to separate Perficient from Remus Corporation.”
“Why?”
“Ada wants to practice her management skills in apany.”
Ryan frowned the moment he heard this. “Neil, don’t you think this is really unfair to Silvia? You
shouldn’t forget that she’s the one who stayed by your side during those tough times. She supported
you for three years but got nothing. Instead, you hang on Ada’s every word.”
Neil did not respond for a while. When he finally spoke, he sounded colder. “That’s none of your
business. Just tell me if you agree with the request.”
“There’s no reason why I’d disagree.”
“It’s a deal, then.”
After the call ended, Ryan did not look happy.
Not knowing what was on his mind, his secretary asked in a low voice, “Mr. Anderson, do I need to
cancel the dinner appointment with MY Corporation’s president?”
“Yes. After that, prepare a contract for Perficient.”
“Noted.”
His secretary did not ask any further questions. He turned around and gave MY Corporation a call.
Ryan picked up a document, but he could no longer focus on reading. He was feeling inexplicably
irritated.
Silvia would surely be upset once she found out.
He took a deep breath and tried not to think about it.
Joe received the call and immediately informed Silvia about it.
“Miss Pond, do we need to reschedule with Mr. Anderson?”
She shook her head. “No. He won’t see me anymore.”
Joe immediately understood that Anderson Corporation had rejected their offer.
“Regarding the coboration…”
“Tell Miss Reed that she doesn’t have to follow up on it anymore.”
Dulcie came over as soon as she heard the news.

“Miss Pond, why are we suddenly giving up on this project?”
H
Silvia put down the document in her hand and rubbed her temple. “Perficient has a higher chance of
securing the deal. We’ll only waste our time if we continue to bid on it.”
Dulcie frowned and said, “I heard that Neil fired more than half of the management staff in Perficient
today. I think he’s snatching this project from us to stabilize thatpany of his!
