    Chapter 967 Thomas&apos Dilemma


    Elisa froze. She hadn''t expected Thomas to send her a proposal this quickly.


    She frowned and inquired, "Did Gareth instruct you to send it to me?"


    Thomas cleared his throat. He experienced a slight sense of impasse between Elisa and Gareth. Both


    parties appeared to be able to deduce what the other was thinking.


    More importantly, their analytical skills were intimidating. Sometimes they had enough implicit


    understanding to know what went on. Hence, Thomas was unable to lie to Elisa.


    Thomas said cautiously, "This newly acquired projectes with huge stakes. Normally, Mr. Wickam


    would consider cooperating with Tabor Group, but he decided to reach out to you first."


    Thomas didn''t have to go into trouble exining the reason for the decision. Elisa understood why.


    Everyone knew that Tabor Group outperformed Bt Corporation in strength, but they needed to find a


    strong partner toplement their business. The n was vital for a win-win partnership.


    Their project before had gone well because Elisa made a sound proposal, but this time it was a project


    by the Wickam Group.


    Elisa frowned. She replied calmly, "I apologize, but would you kindly inform him thepany recently


    started some new projects and can''t coborate with Wickam Group? Since there is much at stake, the


    participation of Bt Corporation will only cause trouble down the line. Let''s not trouble Mr. Wickam


    more than we should."


    Thomas thought, how should I convey the message?


    After a moment of silence, he said, "At the time being, the coboration project is not an urgent matter.


    Maybe evaluate the project, and decideter, Ms. Elisa?"

    Elisa refused, "The answer is still no. I have too much on my te, and I''m afraid there''s no room for this


    project."


    Thomas sighed, "Alright, I''ll let Mr. Wickam know."


    "Okay, thank you," said Elisa.


    The two hung up the phone. Elisa refused the offer, but Thomas remained persistent. Thomas dialed


    Gareth''s number.


    Gareth was silent on the other line. Thomas reported cautiously, "Mr. Wickam, ah...I just talked to Elisa


    on the phone."


    Gareth''s expression darkened. He replied in a low voice.


    "What did she say?"


    Thomas took a deep breath. He couldn''t ry Elisa''s words, so he phrased them delicately. "Elisa is


    preupied with stock-rted issues and even hired bodyguards to ensure her safety. She exined


    that while those issues are being sorted, she will not have the time to devote to another project. She


    intends to stabilize the internal situation before proceeding with further discussion."


    Thomas said nothing more; he had run out of justifications. Their individual choices would determine the


    result.


    Gareth hung up the phone without saying anything. Thomas groaned, realizing that the project would


    likely be dyed. Gareth would never coborate with Tabor Group anymore now that he had Elisa.


    Compared to Nicole, he had more interest in and affection toward Elisa.
