Chapter 1299 Cooperate
The next few days went by like a blur. ck rarely contacted Holley, but sometimes he couldn''t control
himself so he texted her. However, Holley''s replies were aloof.
Soon enough, Tarsan Corporation had prepared to bid for a project. Holley had gotten busy every day,
so her rtionship with ck remained at a standstill.
This project''s prospect was quite important to Holley. If they won the bid, it would certainly bring them a
great profit. Most importantly, it could open doors for them in that field. Thus, everyone at Tarsan
Corporation took the matter quite seriously and even worked overtime to collect data and prepare the
files for the bid.
The day of the bidding came, and Holley went to the meeting room in thepany of Party A. Upon
arrival, she was surprised to find that Charles was also there. When Holley saw him, her heart
hammered in her rib cage and she didn''t even know how she got to her seat, but she sat down
nheless.
While everyone prepared their presentations, Holley couldn''t help but peek at Charles. His face was
calm and cold, but his eyes brimmed with vigor. His sleeves were rolled up and made him look neat
and efficient. He asionally tapped the table with his pen, held by his fair-skinned and slender
fingers. Holley even wanted to touch his fingers.
Charles also saw Holley, but he deeply hated her so he simply ignored her.
A few minutester, the meeting came to the main point. Holley finally calmed down and concentrated
on Party A''s speech. After all, this project was of great importance and Tarsan Corporation had done so
much for it already. They couldn''t make any mistakes when it was nearlypleted, so Holley had to
take it seriously.
After a while, Party A hade to a surprising decision that all the bidders never expected. Party A
was satisfied by both the strengths of Charles'' Shining Company, and Tarsan Corporation that Holley
represented. They hoped that the twopanies would join hands on the project and cooperate to
produce the perfect n.
The people in the room began to chatter among themselves because the final decision was quite
unexpected.
Meanwhile, Holley secretly felt joyful about the news. Her eyes immediately darted to Charles, as she
was worried that he would turn down Party A''s decision. However, she thought that it would be
impersonal of him so he had to agree, and this thought relieved her.
"I have no problem with this suggestion. Of course, it''s up to Mr. Lu," Holley said. On the other hand,
Charles didn''t look too happy about the decision. He hated Holley a lot.
If it wasn''t for her, his beloved wife wouldn''t have suffered so much grievance and injustice.
If the twopanies worked together to finish the project, he would inevitably have to contact Holley.
He found that uneptable, but this project was truly important to him so he didn''t reject it on the spot.
If he did so, Party A would feel embarrassed.
Thus, he just said that he needed to consider it before making a final decision. Then he left the meeting
room and nned to go back.
At that moment, Holley smiled at the person in charge of Party A and hurried to walk out of the meeting
room. She wanted to catch up with Charles.
"Mr. Lu, wait a moment."
Her high heels made walking a bit difficult, but she still followed Charles and hoped to stop him.
Holley''s voice reached Charles and he felt annoyed. He didn''t stop walking forward.
Still, Holley didn''t give up and hurried more to catch up to him. When she did, she grabbed his arm and
tried to make him stop and listen to her.
Now, Charles never thought that Holley would act improperly in public like when she grabbed his arm.
He forcefully wormed out of her grip and had to stop to prevent her from doing that again.
"Miss Ye, please show some respect. What can I do for you?" As Charles said those words, he didn''t
look at Holley but raised his arm and checked his watch. He pretended to be in a hurry on purpose to
hint that Holley should be sensible and stop bothering him.
However, Holley finally seized a chance, so how could she let him go like he wished?
"Mr. Lu, don''t you think Party A''s suggestion is perfect? Won''t it be a win-win for us if we cooperate to
finish this project? So what''s your opinion about it, Mr. Lu?" Holley asked straightforwardly.
She wanted to know Charles'' thoughts on the matter in advance.
''Ha, you don''t know yourself well enough. You''re so naive to think that I would be willing to work with
you, '' Charles thought and cast Holley a sharp nce.
"I have no interest in a joint cooperation between Tarsan Corporation and Shining Company. Miss Ye, if
you have nothing else to talk about, I have something to do and need to go now."
As Charles spoke, he nned to walk around Holley and leave.

"Mr. Lu, please wait a while. I have something important to tell you. Can you give me a few minutes?"
At that moment, Holley saw that Charles'' secretary had sorted out the files from the meeting and was
about to approach them, so she quickly stated her questions.
However, Charles didn''t stop walking as he didn''t care about what she wanted to say.
"Mr. Lu, are you sure that you won''t listen?" Holley moved two steps forward and asked. "Then I have
to continue bothering you."
Even though Charles clearly wasn''t interested, Holley still spoke to him regardless.
That only made Charles hate her more, but he didn''t want the others to see him being leeched on and
gossip about him behind his back. Thus, he had to relent and talk to Holley in a corner where nobody
could see them.
"Mr. Lu, I hope that you can agree to cooperate with us."
After those words, Holley paused for a bit and seemed to hardly know where to start.
"Is this something important as you mentioned? I think we don''t need to talk about this issue. I won''t
agree to cooperate or change my mind."
Charles was already quite distressed and put a hand on his forehead. He was in no mood to exin
things to Holley in detail.
"Mr. Lu, listen to me first. Don''t make a rash decision, please. It is said that business is business, so I
believe this project is also important to Shining Company. Otherwise, you won''t care about this bid so
much, right?"
It seemed that Holley had predicted that Charles wouldn''t answer her question, so she added, "Mr. Lu, I
hope you can think over about the proposed cooperation in terms of its benefits for both of us."
