Chapter 944 Nathan Link

After both of them finished their coffee at the cafe, Lele Holst did not ask Sophia Zanatta to send her home. Instead, they went straight to the Northern Grace headquarters. Since Lele had promised Sophia, she had to do her best to get the job done. Although Lele was not too sure of it still, she would definitely do everything she could. Meanwhile, in the young director’s office located at the Northern Grace headquarters building’s penthouse, a man in a white suit stood before a massive french window. He was looking out of the window. His name was Nathan Link, the young director of Northern Grace. When he looked down from his whereabouts, he could spot the Northern Grace building’s main entrance. He saw Sophia and Lele getting out of a BMW. ‘Lele is back.’ Seeing Lele, a hint of excitement surfaced on Nathan’s face. ‘Huh? Who’s that beautiful woman next to her?’ When Nathan saw Sophia, his eyes lit up for a moment. However, when Nathan saw that after Lele entered the Northern Grace building and Sophia drove away, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He turned his back toward the french window, took out a cigar, and lit it up for himself. He took a puff from it while turning the lighter in his hand. A moment later, there was a knock on the door of his office. “Come in,” Nathan answered. Lele walked in. She gave an impression of a lady with excellent temperament. “Director Link.” “Lele is back. Please have a seat.” Nathan scanned Lele from top to bottom. The radiant in his eyes were running wildly, “How was your business trip?” “Everything went smoothly.” Lele placed the contract she had brought back from overseas on Nathan’s desk. “I’ve made a deal with them. We can start cooperating with them at home and abroad in the second half of the year.” “Hmm.” Nathan took the contract and flipped through it. He said, “You’ve done a fabulous job. This time, what reward do you desire? How about I reward you with myself?” Lele’s expression sank slightly when faced with Nathan’s joke. Long before this, Nathan had revealed his feelings to Lele, but she felt that Nathan was a womanizer, so she had rejected him. Nathan did not mess with her. Despite Lele’s unwillingness to be with him, he did not force her to accept him. However, deep down, he wanted to pursue Lele no matter what. “Just kidding.” Nathan laughed. Lele seized the opportunity and said, “Director Link, I don’t need a reward for negotiating this contract, but I have a request. Perhaps the Director Link can consider it.” “What sort of request?” Nathan asked. Lele replied, “Some time ago, Autumn Field Group from the south had approached us to talk about the cooperation of the brand promotion, but we rejected them.” Nathan nodded and replied, “Right, I do recall such an incident.” Lele continued, “Director Link, I have a friend who sought my help. They hoped that Northern Grace could agree to cooperate with Autumn Field Group. They are willing to offer a handsome honorarium. Suppose Director Link agrees to this, I can talk with the Autumn Field Group representative and request the highest honorarium price.” Nathan immediately frowned. He said, “Lele, you should be clear yourself, why our company refused the Autumn Field offers. That company is new. If we cooperate with a company that could possibly just be a short-term thing, we will offend the local big wigs in the north.” “I know, so...” Lele still wanted to fight for it. However, something seemed to have occurred to Nathan. He changed the topic and asked, “Lele, the friend you are talking about, could she be the beautiful woman who drove you back just now?” Lele made an affirmative, non-verbal sound, and she said, “Director Link, you saw us?” Nathan immediately conjured the silhouette of Sophia’s in his mind. He asked meaningfully, “Who is that beautiful woman?” Lele replied, “She is Sophia Zanatta, the heiress of the Zanatta family of East Province. Director Link, you should have heard of her. After all, the Zanatta family was very famous in the north before.” “Sophia Zanatta.” Nathan stood up determinedly when he heard Sophia’s name. He asked, “Sophia Zanatta, Tyr Summers’ good friend?” “Tyr Summers?” Lele felt the name was somewhat familiar. Then, she suddenly remembered that earlier, Sophia seemed to have mentioned this name to her. “I think so. What are you trying to say, Director Link?” “Nothing.” Nathan waved his hand. His brain had spun dozens of times within a few seconds. ‘Tyr Summers, Sophia Zanatta, Kirin Summers! ‘TV station, Red Spider, hehehe!’ Lele had no idea what was on Nathan’s mind, but he seemed to get increasingly excited. Given the way he looked now, it gave Lele a chill down her spine. “Director Link… Director Link...” Nathan only came back to his senses after Lele called out to him twice. “Director Link, is something wrong with you?” “Nothing.” Nathan waved his hand. “You may go ahead and get busy.” Lele still wanted to discuss the matter further. So, she asked, “What about the cooperation with Autumn Field Group?” “Just let me think about it. I’ll write to you when I have made up my mind.” “Okay then.” After Lele turned around and left the office, Nathan sat alone in his chair and pondered for a long time. Finally, when the cigar had burned down to his fingers, a morbid smile appeared upon Nathan’s face. “Hehehe!” *** In the evening, within an underground boxing ring in Ormr City. Due to the incident that happened earlier, Kirin had been a little cranky the whole night. He didn’t sleep well at night but managed a restless sleep the next day. After waking up, he ate something. Then, he was accompanied by Black Reaper and White Reaper to this underground boxing ring. This underground boxing ring was considered the largest establishment of its kind in the north. The Summers family funded it, and Kirin was the owner of this boxing ring. It was also the most popular place for the north’s gentries because it was full of enthusiastic people and blood. Also, every boxing match came with uncapped gambling. For the time being, within an octagonal cage of the boxing ring, Kirin looked different from his usual gentle, frail-looking, scholarly appearance. He was bare-chested with boxing gloves on his hands. He was fighting with a boxer who was one head taller than him. Perhaps because of Kirin’s identity, the boxer was a bit obsequious when he threw punches. He was afraid to hurt Kirin. However, his action failed to receive Kirin’s appreciation. On the contrary, it made him furious. “What are you doing, looking down on me?” Kirin rushed toward the boxer and smashed his fist in his face. Kirin’s boxing skill was surprisingly good. He was so strong that one punch from him did the boxer’s face in.
