When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 962 Win Over The Clients Of Imminence Corporation

A húsh fell over the room as soon as the recording was played, only to be shattered by a flurry of discussions.

“Imminence Corporation again? Wasn’t it enough that they took one of our partners? Now they’ve snagged Hardy Group as well?”

“Just how wealthy are they? They just won’t quit!”

“Imminence Corporation is nothing but a nuisance. I suspect they’re an overseas company.”

Everyone engaged in a fervent discussion.

Miranda had also not anticipated that the real reason for Hardy Group’s contract termination was that they had been poached by another company.

She still refused to give up. “It sounds like you’re quite close with Ms. Hardy. Don’t tell me you’re the one who told her about Imminence Corporation.”

This woman wouldn’t rest until she smeared Cecilia’s reputation.

Ms. Miranda, I’ve already answered this question of yours. Is your memory failing you, or are you really clueless? Let me repeat myself. If I had informed Ms. Hardy about Imminence Corporation, why would she agree to sign a contract with our company?”

“You must have told her after the contract was signed,” Miranda quickly added.

She didn’t make any sense, saying whatever popped into her head.

Cecilia stayed calm. “If that’s the case, wouldn’t she resent me for having her sign a contract with us first and then pushing her to negotiate with Imminence Corporation, forcing her to pay a termination fee? Besides, what do I gain from getting Ms. Hardy to collaborate with Imminence Corporation? I’m part of the Rainsworth family, not the owner of Imminence Corporation.”

Cecilia was actually spot on because Imminence Corporation was indeed started by her husband, which essentially meant she was an owner, too. Unfortunately, she had no idea at all.

Miranda was left speechless.

“You are just…” She was still trying to frame Cecilia, but Nicholas could no longer stand it. He interrupted, “Enough, Ms. Miranda. This is a company, not your house.”

Anyone could tell Miranda was being unreasonable.

Nicholas‘ warning finally silenced Miranda.

“Now, we need to consider our next move. Should we salvage our collaboration with Hardy Group, or should we search for à different partner to replace them? If we decide on the latter, which companies should we consider?” Nicholas said, enunciating each word slowly.

He realized that Imminence Corporation was intent on sabotaging any project involving Orion Corporation. Who would have thought they would also develop a food item? It had to be nearly to what Orion Corporation offered; otherwise, Hardy Group would never have agreed to a ten–yearC0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Mr. Rainsworth, I believe we should try to salvage the collaboration with Hardy Group. After all, we’ve been in partnership with them for so many years,”

“No, no. I think we shouldn’t collaborate with them anymore, given their lack of credibility. We should look for other companies instead.”

Everyone was talking over each other, engaged in a healed argument.

Cecilia, however, had a different perspective.

She was just a secretary and was in position to speak.

Nicholas seemed to have noticed Cecilia had something to say, so he asked, “What do you think, Ms. Smith?”

At that moment, the conference room fell into silence. Everyone turned their attention to Cecilia, curious about what ideas she, as a secretary, might have.

Everyone looked at Cecilia with contempt, but she showed no sign of fear. “First of all, I believe the possibility of renewing our collaboration with Hardy Group is off the table. The recording I just played for you clearly captures Ms. Hardy stating that Imminence Corporation is more generous. She has signed a ten–year contract with them–ten years! It’s evident that the benefits Imminence Corporation offers are something we could never match. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have changed her mind so quickly, without even making a comparison.”

After hearing this, even those who had been considering renewing their partnership with Hardy Group were swayed.

Cecilia continued, “As for seeking other businesses, I’ve done some research. Right now, there are very few companies that can match Hardy Group. Rushing into partnerships without fully understanding the potential collaborators offers no guarantee of success. My advice is to gradually seek out partners and consider expanding our options. However, that’s only one part of the strategy. We also need to start focusing on winning over the clients of Imminence Corporation.”

Her final sentence left everyone utterly astounded.
