Chapter 957 A Bevy of Women


    Mr. Steven took a step forward in front of Bianca, sniffed the air in front of her, hugged her waist


    brazenly, and smiled. "Yes, we can talk about the price. After all, yourpany seems quite capable.


    So how much will it be, Ms. Rayne?"


    Bianca turned her head away in disgust when she saw his oily, sausage-like lips leaning close to her


    face. She discreetly distanced herself and said," We can talk about it, Mr. Steven. How about if we sit


    down and talk?" "Alright, alright, alright. Sit on myp and we''ll talk." Mr. Steven prepared to sit down


    while hugging her.


    Nina stepped in between the two. Mr. Steven let go of Bianca and hugged Nina instead.


    He did not mind that. After all, both of them were beautiful. He smiled at Nina and said, "Would you


    rather sit on myp, Ms. Langdon?"


    After many drinks, all Mr. Steven wanted was to cop a feel.


    Nina was appalled, but she would rather Mr. Steven take advantage of her than her good friend. "How


    about if we give you a five percent discount on the original quote?" She suggested.


    "I''ll have to think about it." Mr. Steven might be intoxicated, but he seemed lucid when money was


    involved. He sat on the chair and tried to pull Nina toward hisp.


    Bianca wanted to stop him when the room door opened abruptly. "Oh, Mr.


    Steven, I''ve heard that you’re here. I didn''t expect to bump into you."


    The person who walked through the door was Mavis Laviere. She was dressed in office wear and wore


    impable makeup. There was a hint of contempt in her eyes when she nced at Bianca.


    Bianca frowned. Why was Mavis here?


    "What a coincidence, Ms. Laviere. Why are you here?" Mr. Steven let go of Nina, smiled, and walked


    toward Mavis.


    Mavis was also a beautiful woman, and she was not any lesser than the other two.


    However, Mavis had maintained an arrogant air in their previous negotiations, and Mr. Steven knew to


    keep a distance away from her.


    However, he could sense that Mavis was a lot friendlier this time, and he could tell that she wanted the


    project too.


    He would consider himself lucky if either of the women apanied him tonight.


    Mr. Steven brought a ss to Mavis. "Are you here to negotiate upon the project too, Ms. Laviere?


    Would you like to have a drink with me?"


    While he spoke, he rested his hand on her delicate arm.


    Mavis gently pushed him away and said coyly, "I''d like to negotiate with you, but aren''t you negotiating


    with Brilliant Architecture now?"


    Her lips were slightly pouted, indicating her dissatisfaction. Mr. Steven was even more bewitched when


    he saw her like that. "It''s fine to negotiate a little more. How about all of you negotiate with me at the


    same time?"


    All the women in the room knew what he meant. Bianca furrowed her brows and looked at Nina.


    Nina realized that she forgot to tell Bianca that Mavis was working as a general manager in Genial


    Engineering, and so she whispered into her ear.


    Bianca instantly understood, though she was surprised that someone as capable as Mavis would work


    in a smallpany.

    Mavis grunted contemptuously. That man was so naive to think that all three women would want to


    please him at the same time!


    She would not havee if she had not received news that Bianca wanted to snatch the contract from


    her!


    She had built an extensivework of connections. Even if she lost the project, Genial Engineering


    would continue to thrive.


    However, she wanted the project because of Bianca! Bianca had snatched her beloved man from her.


    She swore that she would make Bianca''s life as difficult as possible!


    That was why she decided to work in Genial Engineering. She would not be able to oppose Bianca if


    she joined a majorpany.


    Mavis smiled and shook her head. "I''d love to talk to you tonight, but too bad I''m engaged somewhere


    else." "Oh..." Mr. Steven knew what she meant. His expression became cold, and he prepared to walk


    away.


    Mavis grabbed his hand and hinted, "We can discuss the price, Mr. Steven.


    What if I meet you in a nightclub tomorrow and talk about it?"


    Mr. Steven beamed instantly. "Tomorrow night?" "Yes, tomorrow night. I''ll reserve a private room, and


    we can talk about it as much as we want!" Mavis whispered into his ear. Then, she stood up straight,


    straightened her hair, and said seductively, "I''m almostte for my engagement. See you tomorrow, Mr.


    Steven."


    Nina was furious when she saw Mavis arrive. She was hoping to win the contract tonight, but Mavis


    had upended her ns. She knew that Mr. Steven was a lecherous man and would not sign the


    agreement tonight.


    "You vixen!" She clenched her fists and cursed under her breath as she watched Mavis leave.


    Her appearance had made all their arrangements in vain.


    After Mavis walked away victoriously, Mr. Steven returned to the table while smiling. "Sorry, Ms. Rayne


    and Ms. Langdon, you can see that you''re not the only ones who want the project. As for the price..."


    He leaned forward as he spoke.


    Nina tried not to lose her temper as she stood in front of Bianca. "Yes, I know. I''m confident that you''ll


    eventually choose us because we are the more capablepany." "You sound very confident, Ms.


    Langdon. I''d like to see your sincerity in your promise," Mr. Steven hinted.


    Bianca put down her wine ss and said, "Ourpany is very sincere, Mr. Steven. Let''s not beat


    around the bush anymore. Our cost is ny-three percent of the original quote. I have to pay my


    employees, and you should understand that it doesn''t make sense to lose money just to secure a


    project. If we win the contract without any regard to the cost, we can''t guarantee the quality. You''re a


    developer, and you should understand that quality is an important factor, don''t you?"


    Mr. Steven was quite surprised. He thought that Bianca wouldply with his demands to win the


    contract.


    However, she had divulged her cost and pretended not to take a hint. He had never negotiated that


    way before.


    It seemed that Mavis''s appearance had affected her.


    "Yes, yes, of course I understand. I''ve heard your offer earlier, and I''ll go home and consider it carefully.


    Shall we continue drinking?" Mr. Steven held his ss in one hand and hugged Nina''s slender waist in


    his other. His head kept on leaning close to her.


    Before Nina could struggle, the door opened again.


    "What are you doing?" Percy''s handsome face was ice-cold when he saw how intimate Nina and Mr.


    Steven were.


    Nina was surprised. She forgot that she was in Mr. Steven''s arms.


    Why would Percy appear there?


    "Who the hell are you?" Mr. Steven narrowed his gaze unhappily. He could tell that the sudden intruder


    was not an ordinary man. The man''s eyes were transfixed on Nina, which made Mr. Steven incredibly


    possessive. He hugged Nina and did not let go.


    Every woman in the room belonged to him!


    Bianca''s heart skipped a beat. She quickly stepped up to Percy and said," Are you here to pick Nina


    up, Mr. Mallory? We''ve just ended our meeting. Please wait for a moment."
