The Deal Read Online Novels & Stories

Julian adjusts the cuff of his shirt, uneasy. He stands at the head of the conference table, Adele by his side in a crimson suit and pants. Julian's voice rings out, calm and commanding. "Our quarterly projections show a potential increase in stakeholder trust, provided we maintain our momentum in Southeast Asia. The Madrid deal is still being reviewed—" At the end of the table, Alex’s phone buzzes. At first, he ignores it. Then it buzzes again. And again.

My gaze frantically swept the room, on edge that we could be caught and expelled at any moment. "Come on, come on..." Trent muttered under his breath, fingers flying over the keyboard. Finally, his motions stilled, and he let out a relieved breath. "Yes, I'm in! Now let's see here..." I hurried over as he began clicking through files, eventually pulling up what appeared to be the cover photo for the anniversary edition. My stomach dropped as I stared at the high-res image of Trent and I sharing a tender embrace, the words "LAUREL HEIGHTS Dream Couple" printed along the bottom.

Dae removed his hands from mine and stretched his hands toward Bryan, Bryan just ignored him giving him a strange and bad character which wasn't coo at all. " Let go into the main point of coming here" Bryan said with anger in his voice as he sat down quickly which Dae just smiled to his rude character making me to sit also with positive smirk to him. As Bryan looked at me I quickly gave a normal look seizing my smile . " We want to sign a construction deal" Dae said as he brought a file and passed it to me with a smile which I gave almost same look to him and accepted it . " What that file about?" Bryan asked as he looked at me which I have him a nasty look and opened the document with a hi

“I see you don't want peace, Eve.” “Genevieve.” “Tell me, why did you do that, huh?” “Cancel the deal? Come on, everyone is canceling their deals with your company. You don't expect me not to. I mean, the deal was important to me as it was to you too.” “Don't act ignorant with me. Here.” He gave her his phone with the news article opened in it. Eve hesitantly took it and scrolled through the article. Once she was done reading, she rolled her eyes and returned it to him.

"If you're really interested in your 'sister', why not book her again?" "What kind of person do you think I am?" I protested, my face flushed with anger. After drinking, Robert dropped me off at home. His suggestion kept echoing in my mind, and I wondered if I should book Eleanor again. However, I kept pushing the thought away. Maybe it was the alcohol, or perhaps it was my true desire, but I ended up logging into the coin auction website. Finding my previous purchase history, I saw that the same coin was still listed. A surge of anger washed over me as I realized Eleanor was still doing this. She actually lied to me! Impulsively, I booked the coin, desperate to see her face when she showed

He licked his lips as his gaze swept over my body. It made me uneasy. “I’m here for the deal, Mr. Franklin. Can we discuss the terms and conditions all over again for you to reconsider?” He waved me off. “Oh, that’s unnecessary. I know the terms and conditions. The deal depends on you. If you agree to please me, I’ll sign the deal. You’ll also receive a generous amount of money as a gift from me. And if you spend the month with me, I’ll buy you an apartment. I heard you’ve been living in a shared apartment. I can change your life, Julia.”

“That’s not enough. I don’t think it can’t cover all that money no matter how overpriced.” “I own this place amongst many others.” He spat. “If only you’d let me finish.” He rolled his eyes. “Very well then.” Ace nodded and Bruno explained the terms of it all and how it works to him. “Great. You can send the details and legal contract to my email. I’ll have my attorney skim through it and I’ll get back to you.” He said to Bruno. “You seem really experienced Mr Ace.” “I am, this isn’t my first rodeo with questionable businesses and partners.” He picked up a cigar from the cigar boy and it was lit for him.

“Let’s make a deal.” He whispers into my ear. ” Deal? What kind of deal?” I asked while my feet won’t stop trembling. One thing that I knew for sure is that he isn’t some normal human. But what is he exactly? “Nothing serious just a simple deal. You give your body when the right time comes.” His completely pitch-black eyes are terrifying me as he speaks. Give my body? What does he mean by that? So, I exactly asked that.

If I continue to be nice to people then they will think I am weak and will take me for granted. Well, I am good as long as I don't take innocent people for granted and I don't take innocent lives. I carried my laptop on my palm and headed to my well, large furnished office on the third floor. I sipped my coffee as I sat down to finalize the deal with Dwayne & Co properties. "Is that the final price for the hotel? Look, Mr. Dwayne, I already have people who are disturbing my emails every day for me to buy their hotels. I am just waiting for you to talk over it."

"My love! That's so gross!" "Do you, Hudson Blake Basco, take Aceia Louise Christenson to be your partner for life? Do you promise to walk by her side forever and to love, help, and encourage her in all she does? Do you promise to take time to talk with her, to listen to her, and to care for her? Will you share her laughter and her tears as her partner, lover, and best friend? Do you take her as your lawfully wedded wife for now and forevermore?" "Yes, I do," Hudson responded as quick as a wink.
