His tone was not firm nor determined, but it had a heart- wrenching effect. The corner of my lips twitched, and I had no choice but to admit, "Freya has our best interests at heart."
After hearing that, Hendrix remained silent for a while with a grave expression on his face. Then, he stood up and walked towards his desk, saying, "I've brought the Roberts Group up this far. Do you think I don't know what Freya is thinking?"
He paused, looked through the documents on the table for a while, and then walked towards me with a few piles of documents. He sat down again and put one arm on the armrest of the sofa. He gazed up at the ceiling, absent-minded as he said, "Roberts Group's two most important sources of income are from construction and commerce. Before I came to Jarold City, I arranged for people to open up transmission and gradually widen the business. As you guessed, just like the projects, those who regretted it at the last minute are all in this pile of documents. As for what Estella said, those that are uncertain and are holding a wait-and-see attitude could not reject it directly for the sake of the Moore Family. In the end, they might not sign the contract as well."
I looked at it. There were four folders in total. Even if there was only one project in each of them, according to the current scale of the Roberts Group, the amount involved was at least ten million dollars, which was not a small number.
It wasn't easy to progress and advance in the business field without any resources and connections, even if you had strong capabilities. It was obvious that Hendrix, who had just arrived in Jarold City, was besieged from all sides.
Although Hendrix might not be willing to listen to me, the Roberts Group would be gone for good if I didn't say anything.
After pondering for a while, I decided to say, "In this case, let's slow down for the time being. Our connections and resources should be accumulated slowly. If we rush, others will play tricks on us, and everything will collapse."
Hendrix shook his head, but his gaze was still empty. It was as if his soul had entered the midst of a battle on the battlefield, "It's not that simple."
