The Good Girl's Revenge

Chapter 312

"Moreover, whether or not we can cooperate will be decided by the contract tomorrow." He concluded

without a trace of emotion.

Nora was relieved to see that he was expressionless and perfectly impartial. The burden did lift from

her mind.

She nodded, "Mr. Xavier, don't worry. If we can cooperate, I will do my best."

Derek looked at his watch, "Let's go. It's late. I'll take you home."

"Don't bother. I'll just take a taxi home. You've helped me a lot today."

He was not a good-natured person. Nora's repeated rejection made him a little angry. He couldn't help

but narrow his eyes and take a step forward, trapping her between his arms.

Nora exclaimed. When she found their posture, her heart thumped and her ears turned red.

"You seem to be afraid of me?"

His deep voice swirled around her ears, and she could clearly feel his unique masculinity. Nora's first

instinct was not to push him away, which was very rare.

There was a flash of confusion in her eyes, and she was at a loss. She wondered if it was her delusion

that his smell... felt familiar to her. It was so familiar that it made her feel that she used to be in close

contact with this smell.

This idea startled her and she immediately came back to her senses. She flushed and could not help

but despise herself in her heart. After all, this was not the first time she had such an idea about Derek.

Derek took the initiative to let her go, "Let's go."

This time, Nora did not say no and followed him obediently.

The next day.

Harvey and Nora went to the Xavier Group early in the morning.

Standing outside the Xavier Group and looking up at the giant building in front of her, Nora felt once

again that she was totally out of Derek's league!

It was the first time for both of them to set foot in the Xavier Group. Harvey was smiling all the way,

even to the receptionist.

Soon, a handsome, cultured man in a suit walked towards them.

"Hello. I'm assistant Damian. Mr. Xavier has told me to lead you up."

"Oh, yes, yes, yes. Mr. Xavier is such a busy person. I'm so honored that he still remembers us."

Harvey had a big smile on his face.

Nora had been working at design company for a long time, but this was the first time she had seen her

boss like this, but it was understandable. After all, this was the Xavier Group.

Assistant Damian told them to wait in the conference room and then he left.

Harvey heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Damian leave and looked at Nora strangely, "Nora, good

for you. I don't expect you to know Mr. Xavier. I've never heard you talk about him. You hide it so well."

"But it's not too late to for me know it now. Nora, you've been in the company for so many years, and I

haven't treated you badly. Now the company is at the critical moment, and it's up to you whether the

company can survive or not."

Nora's blood froze. She was very helpless and explained, "Mr. Specter, you've got it all wrong. Mr.

Xavier and I just met by chance. We are not friends."

Mr. Specter didn't believe it at all. Who was Derek? Why would he care so much about someone he

didn't have a relationship with?

Harvey waved his hand unconcernedly, with an ambiguous smile on his face, "I know. I know. Don't

worry. I won't say anything."

She felt like she was making the matter even worse.

Just as she was about to clarify, Derek came.

A well-ironed suit wrapped his tall and straight figure. The collar of his shirt was unbuttoned and he had

one hand in his pocket. There was no expression in his extremely handsome features, and he looked

haughty and unruly.

Nora was stunned when she saw him like this for the first time. Sure enough, this was a man who

seemed to shine everywhere.

Harvey immediately stood up. He was grinning from ear to ear, making people couldn't bear to look

straight at him.

"Mr. Xavier, I didn't expect you to meet me in person. I'm flattered."

Derek glanced at Nora and sat down in front of them without saying anything. Damian, the assistant

behind him, took out a document and put it in front of Harvey.

"Here are our terms. Please have a look."

Harvey was stunned. At once he opened the contract and read it carefully. The more he read it, the

more he frowned. It looked like he was in a dilemma.

He originally intended to take advantage of the relationship between Nora and Derek to expand the Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

SPECTER Group by relying on Xavier Group this time.

He had such good ideas, but this contract put an end to his plans.

The requirements in the contract were clear, and there were two options. Xavier Group could invest

and develop sales channels, and the SPECTER Group could follow the trend. The Xavier Group would

not care, but the time limit was only one year.

To put it bluntly, following the trend meant counterfeiting in the field of fashion design. There had been

plagiarism in domestic fashion industry chain, and no law had been set up to punish this phenomenon.

When the sales season began, countless niche clothing companies copied the designs and logos of

the big brands. As long as they made some changes, no one could sanction them.

However, the Xavier Group was different. In the past few years, whenever they found plagiarism, they

would crack down hard.

Now, Xavier Group's contract specifically mentioned that SPECTER Group could follow the trend for a

year without any investigation. Nonetheless, it was up to Harvey to see how far SPECTER Group could

go after the one-year contract expired.

The second option was that the Xavier Group would buy all the design drafts of SPECTER Group for

the second half of the year and open the 0.1 % channel to the SPECTER Group for three months.

When the time limit was up, the cooperation would be terminated.

Harvey was torn between this two options. The first option had a one-year deadline, and so long as it

worked well, the SPECTER Group could even establish its own brand and become very popular.

However, there were risks. The contract was only for one year, and if it didn't work, it was all ruined.

As for the second option, whether it was buying out or opening up channels, the profit would multiply

several times, which was an irresistible temptation.

Harvey couldn't help but laugh, "Well, Mr. Xavier, Nora had been working in my company for many

years. She's a senior employee."

"Nora's department is in charge of design, so this..."

He was about to take advantage of the relationship between Nora and Derek. Nora's brows tightened

as she listened, eager to interrupt Mr. Specter.

Derek glanced at him without any emotion in his eyes, "Mr. Specter, are you saying you're not going to

cooperate?"

He was stunned and immediately shook his head, "No, no, that's definitely not what I meant. It's

SPECTER Group's honor to work with the Xavier Group. I just..."

Before he could finish, Derek frowned and said aggressively, "Since that's not what you meant, choose

one of the two contracts. I have a video conference in five minutes. I hope Mr. Specter can be more

efficient."

Harvey, "..."
