Chapter 357: Purchase And Sale Contract


    Chapter 357: Purchase and Sale Contract


    -Mr. Cantero -the clerk in front of him politely stepped aside and greeted Noe.


    With a solemn expression, Noe nodded without turning away.


    He took arge step toward his office and sat down after a sigh. Soon after, the assistant pushed open


    the door and asked in a soft voice:


    -Mr. Cantero, you wanted to see me?


    -Does the contract have an electronic file? -Noe asked, looking at his assistant.


    The assistant was a little hesitant, curious to know what Noe wanted from the electronic file.


    Is it possible that he hadn''t seen Mariana even though she took a break today?


    -Mr. Cantero, haven''t you seen Miss Ortiz? -the assistant dared to speak up and ask. Now that public


    opinion was boiling, it was normal that he could not call Mariana.


    Maybe everywhere Mariana was, there were reporters around.


    It was better to stay away from women like that in such critical moments.


    -Are there or not? -Noe asked impatiently, somewhat displeased by his assistant''s question. That


    should not be something for an assistant to interfere with.


    Seeing that Noe was in a bad mood, the assistant hastened to nod.


    -Yes, yes, yes, yes.


    Send a copy to my e-mail immediately.


    Noe looked down at hisputer, not having time to pay attention to his assistant. He was so used to


    getting along with the staff under him that these people spoke calmly to him.


    This was the kind of management model Noe wanted.


    But when he''s in a bad mood, he wasn''t so funny.


    Ding Dong!


    The email appeared in the lower right corner of theputer, and Noe opened the contract while


    taking the phone in his hand with some hesitation. It was not possible to sign the contract in person, so


    it would be better to do it online.


    Just as Noe was thinking about how to tell Mariana, her cell phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown


    phone number, and Noe was a little distracted.


    He could vaguely guess what kind of person was calling him.


    After a moment of concentration, Noe picked up the phone.


    -Hello?


    -Hello, this is Leopoldo," Leopoldo''s tone was subdued and cold.


    Obviously, Noe was not surprised by such a confrontation. He showed the attitude of someone who


    had been waiting for this call for a long time, and there was no change in his demeanor.


    -Hello, Se?or Durán," Noe''s eyes were steady as he greeted politely.


    Leopoldo shook the ss in his hand and issued a direct invitation.


    -May I ask if Mr. Cantero has time?


    -Mr. Durán''s generosity is a hard thing toe by, so naturally I wouldn''t refuse," Noe responded


    politely to the other party''s invitation, and was curious to know what kind of business Leopoldo was


    looking for.


    Was it about Mariana or something else?


    Counting on him, Noe thought Leopoldo would not be interested in talking to himself. But if it was about


    Mariana, then Leopoldo, no matter how busy he was, would have that time to talk to him.


    -I''ll see youter," Leopoldo strangely disconnected the call and got up immediately.


    He put on his coat and went out the door.


    Mariana was in the guest room and could clearly hear the sound of Leopoldo''s room closing. She


    thought Leopoldo was going toe to her room to look for her, and she felt expectant and a little


    scared at the same time.


    It was good that he hade to see her, but what did they both have to say?


    -Se?or Durán," the butler saw Leopoldoing down the stairs and greeted him cautiously.


    Leopoldo nodded and lowered his voice to ask:


    -Where is he?


    -In the guest room," the butler lowered his head and spoke cautiously. If Mariana had taken the


    initiative to go to the guest room, it was only because the two had quarreled and there was no other


    exception.


    At times like this, it was even more important not to ask too many questions.


    After learning that Mariana was in the guest room, Leopoldo took a big step forward and left without


    looking back.


    -Se?or Durán.


    After seeing Leopoldo, Noe got up busily and acted extremely calm. The two hadn''t crossed paths


    much, so there was nothing Noe couldn''t blurt out when he met Leopoldo.


    With a serious look on his face, Leopoldo pushed the stool away and sat down directly across from


    Noe.


    Seeing the situation, the waiter picked up the menu and handed it to Leopoldo.


    Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    -I don''t need it.


    The menu was immediately rejected before it reached the man''s hand. With a bit of wariness, Noe''s


    gaze shifted to Leopoldo''s.


    Would they do nothing but talk?


    There seemed to be nothing good about Leopoldo calling him.


    -Se?or Durán, why did you ask me out?


    Leopoldo stared at the other party, wanting to get straight to the point. He saw no point in beating


    around the bush.


    It was better for two great men to speak honestly.


    -You have a modeling project on your hands, don''t you? -Leopoldo looked at the other man, his eyes


    sharp.


    He hade just for the project. As for Noe''s intention towards Mariana, even if Leopoldo didn''t ask,


    they both knew it perfectly well. In this matter, Leopoldo wanted to be generous.


    Noe did not even deserve to be seen by Leopoldo.


    -Yes," Noe did not hide anything and admitted it openly.


    As for what Leopoldo wanted to do, Noe still didn''t know. The project was in his hands, and even if


    Leopoldo knew, it would be meaningless. As soon as Mariana signed, everything would be a foregone


    conclusion.


    -Sell it to me," Leopoldo was forceful in his demand.


    He turned to Noe to buy the project.


    -Se?or Durán, what do you mean by that? -Noe was a bit confused, unable to understand what


    Leopoldo meant.


    Even if he sold the project to Leopoldo, what would it mean for him? He unterally announced the


    termination of his contract with Mariana, and at this point, he wanted to cut the project she had her eye


    on.


    If you looked at it from this perspective, Leopoldo was really despicable.


    -It was not his ce to ask questions about what was being done.


    Leopoldo was going to buy the project and see it through.


    Noe, as the seller, only had to make an offer.


    -It''s not for sale.


    Noe didn''t even think about it and turned Leopoldo down directly. He had already promised Mariana


    that he would partner with her to create the cover of this issue and promote it.


    What''s the point of selling a contract that''s already decided?


    -You can''t not sell it," Leopoldo looked at him with a subdued gesture.


    It seemed that it was not up to Noe to decide whether or not to sell the project.


    -Mr. Durán, don''t intimidate people too much," Noe stared at the man and spoke viciously.


    Although Leopoldo was a business tycoon, that didn''t mean Noe was afraid of him. Going around


    meddling in other people''s business was something Leopoldo should not do.


    -I''ll pay a high price for him, so you can make a solid profit," Leopoldo thought for a moment and came


    out with a new offer.


    As long as he could get Noe to contribute to the project, he would have given up a lot of favors already.


    It only remained to be seen whether Noe himself had the sense to ept such a big proposal or not.


    -It''s not for sale," Noe refused coldly, without hesitation.


    He would not budge for any price offered.


    -I''m sorry then.


    Leopoldo had expected that attitude from Noe and was not surprised. He had seen the project, and


    apart from Mariana, who was avable to coborate, it was basically a stretch to find other models.
