Chapter 1399 Gilbert and Marigold (74)

That very afternoon, Esther and Gilbert rushed to Faust Group to sign the deal. Gilbert said

he was worried that Alec would change his mind, so he urged Esther to sign it. Only

through a written contract would they be able to relax.

Esther thought it made sense and agreed to rush to Faust Group with Gilbert.

In the meeting room, Alec looked at the two people before him, expressionless. "You have

a good son, Mrs. Bradshaw."

"I’m flattered. My son had Bradshaw Operations' interests at heart. He'll inevitably be a

little insensitive. Please don't hold that against him, Mr.

Faust." Esther smiled. She didn't mind Alec's sarcasm because it didn't matter. As long as

Bradshaw Operations could truly benefit from this, she didn't care how much Alec mocked

her.

Alec smiled coldly and slid the contract over to her. "You may flip through it."

Esther took it and read through it seriously.

If this project succeeded, they would reap massive rewards. However, it required a

massive upfront investment. It would drain nearly all of Bradshaw Operation's assets.

They would have to put their other projects on hold to make this succeed. Hence, she had

to be serious.

The contract seemed harmless. Faust Group was generously giving them fifty percent of

the shares. It was unbelievable to Esther. "I thought that even thirty percent of the shares

would be extravagant of you, Mr. Faust."

Alec scoffed. "If it weren't for Gilbert bothering my wife, I wouldn't have agreed to give

you so much." Displeasure was written all over Alec's face.

Esther was a little hesitant. Bradshaw Operations could barely cover thirty percent of the

shares. However, if it was fifty percent, it would be an incredible strain on them. The

Bradshaws had multiple ongoing projects. Even if they paused them, it would affect them

greatly if their investment did not produce immediate results.

"What are you hesitating for, Mrs. Bradshaw? You're not broke, are you?" Alec sneered and

took the contract back. "If you are, you should stop dreaming about projects you can't

afford to have.”

He looked incredibly unwilling to collaborate with Bradshaw Operations, so he mocked

them for having no money.

But Esther would never give up an opportunity like this.

"You're worrying for nothing, Mr. Faust. Our company has nothing but money." Esther took

the contract back from Alec's hands. This time, she signed it with no hesitation at all.

When he saw the contract getting signed, Gilbert smirked. He looked at Esther. She'd

better enjoy her highs while she could. They would be taken from her very quickly.

They walked out of Faust Group. Esther held the contract, feeling uneasy.

"The shares had suddenly grown to fifty percent. It's very hard for Brashaw Operations to

give out that kind of money. What should we do?" Esther asked Gilbert.

Gilbert thought about it for a while and said, "We can ask for money from the bank. Once

the project is over, we'll just give it back to them."

Esther shook her head in exasperation. Things were not as simple as that. Bradshaw

Operations already had a large sum of debt with the bank, and this would be yet another

lump sum of money. The bank would not be willing to lend it to them.

"I could also approach Jenny and get her to lend us some money from Walter Inc," Gilbert

said.

"Will she agree to that?"

"At most, we'll trade our projects with her. Once we pay her back, we'll still have our

projects back. After all, those projects will be paused anyway," Gilbert said nonchalantly.

Although he’d spoken lightly, Esther thought it was a good idea
