The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 173 - Fix A Meeting!

Charles's eyebrows raised when he heard the man's words.

It made him wonder why is this person offering something so outrageous out of nowhere?

"How will it help you to gain?" Charles asked as his businessman's instincts hit up, "Since entering the market alone isn't much possible here. I will be using your resources while hard work will be entirely mine."

"Profit will be disturbed equally, or you can go ahead and put forward your conditions if you wish to?"

The man wasn't explaining anything via his face. The expressions plastered on his face and giving no message through his emotions.

What was the possibility that whatever he is speaking will obviously take place?

His words made Charles think twice about the entire offer.

Hurry wasn't his cup of tea either, so he finally spoke, "Probably, discussing such business matters in the office with staff and presentations is a much bigger and better option.. in my eyes.

"Sure! Mr. Johnson, everything shall be done in a professional manner." Deep down Austin was already finding the man amusing.

As one of those people, who has business abroad too, it wasn't new for him to come across the people who have a sudden urge to merge their business with him.

But this wasn't as usual.

Businessman usually picks the deals without looking and going through the same, for the sake of coming in good books but Charles's way of addressing the situation was outshining already.

'Much deeply focused and….wishes to see all the rounds before dealing with someone..' nature was also to be appreciated but he has his hidden aim too which needs to be met soon.

Austin maintained his broad smile.

Soon, shifting the topic to another to some other matter, and the conversation kept alive for a well next to one thirty minutes.

Until, one of the businessmen called Charles to have another conversation with the man, making Charles leave the space after bidding goodbye.

Austin wished Charles and expressed his desire to have been working with him soon in the near future.

Charles simply nodded at the statement, leaving Austin alone near the bar where Austin asked the bartender to make another shot, which he would like to have.

"Benefited anything out of this?" Mr. Stan showed up from behind when he noted that Charles already left.

Lifting the glass, Austin took a sip when his eye shined with the tangent of glitter, fixed in the direction where Charles left.

"This guy isn't any simple one… making him fool will be difficult." Hearing this, Mr.Stan sighed, "So what is the need to do this? Go and start a business, simple as that!"

"If… my aim was simply to enter the market, I would have taken that option but…" recalling his reason for landing in the state, he knew that working with Johnson might not benefit him much.

It was hell out of risky and once they get aware of his deeds, they will probably block the partnership themselves.

"Then, what is your next Plan Austin?" Mr. Stan's face is an evident worry for his friend who was engaging himself with the Mafia family of their state.

At first, Austin didn't reply but later once opened his mouth, "I will be sending a formal proposal to his company tomorrow itself. Hopefully, if luck favors, our meeting will be done on an official basis.. and I will be.." able to meet my Jen too.

….

Next morning

In Johnson's office.

Charles was sitting in the meeting room where his secretary was on his left side and his other men on the other side.

"Sir, our finance department has reported about fiscal taxes which we have to pay very soon." it was his secretary, who informed him while going through the files which show the amounts as well.

Charles nodded his head and waited for his other person to speak, "What about the incomes? The investment we did in the Binance Company.. has it gained something?"

"Yes sir. The shares have rapidly risen. Now, it is on our company, either we wish to sell it or.. want to retain the same for longer purpose."

"Sell it. It was for investment purpose for short term, go ahead and contact a broker." With the same conversation but afterward, his female secretary's eyes twisted when she read the mail.

"Sir… there is something important." Hearing the lady's voice, both the males shifted their eyes to look at her tanned brows. "What happened, Ferry?"

His male secretary asked, in return all he got was silence since Ferry was undergoing through the entire mail herself. "This.. looks like.. some company wished to.. collaborate with us.."

"Which company?" Charles stayed silent throughout the conversation. It was his male secretary who inquired.

"This shows the abroad company. Named, ending Faint... We have no idea." Ferry looked puzzled, so did the male secretary but Charles's hands stopped in the middle of writing something

His eyes narrowed slightly when he realized that the name was quite similar. he has surely heard this name somewhere...but where?!

That was confusing, but then, he lifted his eyes to look at his secretary with amazing eyes, "What is the name of the person, who has sent this?"

"Si..sir you mean proposal?" ferry asked, with uncertainty but then, she got the nod from Charles, then she did reply.

"O, the name is Austin brown..." the name strike his mind when his eyes widened.

Yet he hid it well before someone could have witnessed the same. Relaxing on his chair, he took a deep breath.

As he recalled the conversation which he had with the man, he knew that this is related to that as well... the man was from abroad.

"What do you want me to do sir? Reply back or not?" his secretary asked, in her timid voice when she saw that the frosty layer has taken over his face.

But then, Charles opened his mouth to say back, "Call them and fix a meeting!"
