Chapter 955 Interested In Bianca


    Sue shook her head indignantly. "Not good. Ever since that incident, we''ve received far fewer orders.


    Some clients would rather pay the penalty for breach of contract than let us do the design for them."


    Bianca was not too flustered, knowing what those people were thinking." How does itpare to the


    previous month?" "It''s at least a forty-percent decrease. We''re not a bigpany, and there are


    several designers without any work on hand. Even St. Heckler Hotel is already looking for another


    company," Sue reported.


    This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.


    St. Heckler Hotel was a three-star hotel construction project in A City. It took Bianca a lot of effort to


    convince them, but Riley''s incident happened right before they were about to sign the contract.


    She was not at liberty to continue negotiations, so she delegated the task to Sue and Nina.


    "Have they signed the contract with the other designpany?" Bianca asked.


    "No, they''re still negotiating. I''ve heard that thepany is charging a high price, which is why St.


    Heckler hasn''t agreed to their terms yet," Sue replied.


    Bianca nodded and spoke to Nina, "Nina, can you contact St. Heckler?


    We''ll have to get them to sign with us."


    There was a chance that they might win the contract, especially when the media had been reporting


    about Bianca''s innocence.


    Nina nodded. "No problem. I''ll set up an appointment now."


    She took out her phone, tried to make her sound as docile as possible, and managed to make an


    appointment with the developer.


    After Nina ended the call, she said, "The developer said that he''s free tonight. I told him that we can


    meet him."


    Thepany was desperate for business, so they had toply with the other party''s whims.


    "No problem. Nina, can you go with me tonight?" Bianca asked and made a mental note that she would


    have to inform Luketer.


    "Okay." Nina did not want to return to Percy''s mansion so soon. She would rather stay at work.


    "Should I go too?" Sue asked.


    Bianca shook her head. "You''ve been working hard for thepanytely, Sue. Let us do this. You


    should go home early and spend some quality time with Kari and Teri."


    Sue thought of her daughters. She had indeed neglected them because of work, so she nodded and


    said, "The developer was quite keen to coborate with us, and they would''ve already signed the


    contract if not for the incident. Now that we''re asking for their business, I''m afraid that they''ll be asking


    for a discount." "I understand. I''ll try to negotiate so that we don''t lose out too much.” Bianca nodded.


    After the discussion, Nina and Sue left the office.


    Bianca sent Luke a message.


    Ding!


    When Luke heard the message notification, he stopped working and unlocked his phone.


    Jason also stopped giving his report.


    Luke yed the voice message, and Bianca''s gentle voice was heard." Luke, I''ll be having a business


    dinner with St. Heckler''s developer tonight. You don''t have toe and pick me up. If you''re working


    overtime, remember to get the driver to pick up Lanie and Rainie from school."


    As busy as she might be, she did not neglect her children.


    "Alright," Luke replied gently.


    Jason was not surprised anymore when he saw that gentle side of his boss. Only Bianca had the magic


    to make his boss fall in love with her.


    Luke put the phone away but did not indicate Jason to continue reporting.


    Instead, he asked, "What''s going on with St. Heckler''s developer?"


    As a professional assistant, Jason naturally knew what was going on. He briefly exined the incident


    about St. Heckler''s developer changing designpanies.


    The developer of a three-star hotel would want to save as much cost as possible. They would not


    engage in T Corporation''s services.


    Luke frowned and continued asking, "Which otherpany did St. Heckler look for?" "Genial


    Engineering Design LLC," Jason replied. He knew about that mainly because of Sue.


    "Boss, Ms. Laviere is working there after she left ourpany," Jason reminded Luke.


    ''Mavis Laviere?''


    Luke was surprised. Mavis was a talented worker. Several multinationalpanies tried to poach her


    before she left T Corporation, and she could have found employment anywhere. Why would she work


    in a smallpany?


    "Boss?" Jason called out.


    "Mm, continue," Luke said. He did not make ament because he was confident in Bianca.


    Mavis might be a formidable opponent, but Bianca was also very capable.


    Jason nodded and continued his report.


    At night, Bianca and Nina went to the Westin Hotel. The other party wanted to meet them there, and


    they reserved a private room to show their sincerity.


    Bianca and Nina sat down in the private room, ordered dinner, and waited for the developer toe.


    Half an hour passed, but the developer was nowhere to be seen.


    Nina mmed the table impatiently. "Are they doing this on purpose?


    We''ve agreed to meet at seven o''clock, but it''s already half-past seven!"


    "Let''s wait for a while more." Bianca calmly sipped her tea. If the other party had not signed the


    contract with the otherpany, it meant that they were still negotiating prices.


    The other party''s tardiness was also part of the negotiation process. As the developer, they would want


    to keep the cost as low as possible. Bianca thought that it would be quite tough for them to win the


    contract.


    Nina took a sip of her tea and sighed. "We''ll definitely be short-changed tonight." "Isn''t that how


    negotiations usually are?" Bianca seemed quite calm about it. If not for Riley, the contract would have


    already been theirs.


    Running thepany cost money, and money came from design projects. Moreover, a significant


    proportion of a designer''s sry came frommissions. Even if Bianca had enough capital to keep


    thepany running, no designers would be willing to work for her if there were no projects.


    Nina became thoughtful as she watched Bianca calmly sip her tea.


    Bianca was not the same as before. She had be moreposed,pared to when she had first


    entered T Corporation.


    She envied Bianca''s change in character and hated herself for having to rely on Percy to survive.


    The developer arrived ten minutester.


    A beautiful woman opened the door. She nced at Bianca, then turned around to speak to the man


    behind her. "This is the ce, Mr. Steven."


    Following that, Bianca saw a potbellied mane into the room. That was Mr. Steven, the developer.


    Mr. Steven''s eyes sparkled when he saw Bianca and Nina. His secretary was the one who contacted


    Nina, and he did not expect that the boss of Brilliant Architectural Design would be so beautiful. As he


    took a drag of his cigarette, he ogled greedily at Bianca''s body.


    Bianca and Nina stood up and introduced themselves. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Steven. I am Bianca


    Rayne, the boss of Brilliant Architectural Design.


    I’m sure that you''ve met Nina Langdon before."
