Chapter 1080
"I..." Ralph was tongue-tied and thought to himself. 'Could it be that she changed her mind because
she wasn't satisfied with my terms? That can't be it. She’s been looking for the handbook for so many
years. How could she just change her mind about something she wanted so badly?’
He probed. 'Then... what do you mean to say?"
"I mean that I don't want it anymore! I don't want the book anymore!" Heather was determined. It
looked like there was no room for negotiations.
"Cut the cr*p. I know you still want the handbook. You want to discuss the terms of our deal again, don’t
you? Fine, let's talk it out then. Since it's business, we can always negotiate and come to a conclusion
that we're both happy with. You don't need to reject me directly just because you couldn't accept what I
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtrequested. There's no need to get so worked up over this."
When it came to Heather, Ralph did not dare to use brute force on her as he was no match for her.
However, he was puzzled by her attitude.
While he was pestering her, she turned her head to look at him. He could not tell what she was thinking
from her deep, dark gaze.
"Well then... I don't want 50% of the shares anymore. What about 45?” Ralph probed. Seeing that she
was not going to say anything and was just staring right at him, he shuddered, and the room sunk into
silence for a moment before he asked again, "40%?"
Heather still said nothing, as if there was no turning back on the matter.
"Look at this! This is the secret handbook you've been dreaming of getting your hands on!" He took out
his phone and waved it in front of her, flipping through the pictures as he continued, "I took a lot of risks
just to get it.
Don't you remember how much trouble you went through just to find the book? You couldn't even find
it, but it's with me right now. Do you not want it anymore? Are you sure? It's going to be too late if you
regret it. I might not agree to make a deal with you by then, regardless of what you offer me!"
"Keep it for yourself, then." Smirking, Heather said coldly.
That left Ralph dumbfounded. Seeing that she had already opened the door, he pressed his hand on
the doorknob to stop her from taking another step forward.
At the same time, he said through gritted teeth, "Fine! We’ll go with what was discussed before this.
30%, and I won’t ask for more! Are you happy now? Let’s sign the agreement now. The shares go to
me, and the book will be yours. How's that?"
The way he spoke sounded like he had to compromise and suffer a significant loss from the deal.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, the strange thing was that Heather was still not taking the deal. She just kept staring at him
coldly like he was a clown.
Ralph's mind turned blank before it became messy with overflowing thoughts. Heather's reaction
disrupted all his plans, and it shattered the confidence he had earlier on wholly.
At this moment, she looked like she did not want the book. That should not be the case, though!
"Just be direct with me and tell me exactly what you want! If you don't want this handbook, I’ll return it
to Alex immediately! No, I’ll put it on auction for the kickboxers. I'm confident that someone else will
offer better terms than you!" Ralph threatened after giving it some thought.
He did not expect that to make Heather chuckle. "Sure, go ahead! I'd like to see what you can get from
selling a fake secret kickboxing handbook!"
Those words erupted in Ralph's head like a thunderstorm. His mind exploded as he shrieked in
disbelief, 'What did you say?"
