Chapter 369 No Free Lunch
"Ms. Lewis, how about we—" Luke hesitated to speak, obviously not wanting Grace to have too much contact with Benjamin.But Grace knew that what had to happen couldn't be avoided.
She walked into the room calmly, displaying elegance in every gesture.
"So, you're the behind-the-scenes boss of this project. It's quite unexpected."
Smiling, Benjamin casually said, "At first, Hawkins Group wasn't involved in this field. But now we want to work with you, so we'retrying."
Grace smiled and asked, "So you mean Hawkins Group wants to work with Amirate?”
After a nod, Benjamin took a folder from Larry. "Yes. We just need to discuss the details."
Grace raised an eyebrow, but her tone remained calm. "Oh, do you have any doubts, Mr. Hawkins?""There's one thing. | find the profit distribution ratio a bit unreasonable."
As soon as he said that, Luke instinctively pushed his glasses up his nose. He didn't feel like Benjamin had any intention ofcollaborating at all.
"Mr. Hawkins, Hawkins Group is just a newcomer to this project. Our cooperation should follow the normal profit distribution ratio.Or do you have no intention of working with us at all?"
Luke spoke without reservation, his words sharp and intimidating.
However, Benjamin looked at Grace. "Your assistant is right. According to this profit calculation, Hawkins Group has alreadytaken a big advantage.
"So, | think a 50-50 split is unreasonable. How about we change it to a 70-30 split? Amirate gets 70%, and Hawkins Group gets30%."
Luke looked incredibly surprised. Was Benjamin here to negotiate a deal? Wasn't he basically giving money to Amirate?This 20% increase meant several hundred million dollars.novelbin
"Ms. Lewis, what do you think?"
Grace didn't understand Benjamin's intentions. "Mr. Hawkins, are you doing business or charity?"
Benjamin calmly replied, "I just want you to make a little more money to shut up those people on your board. That's all.”Silently, Grace clenched her hands. How did Benjamin know so much about Amirate's internal affairs?
She rejected him right away. "There's no need, Mr. Hawkins."
"This is business. | shouldn't accept your generosity for no reason. If you're not sincere in this collaboration, there's no need tocontinue our discussion.”
Having said that, she stood up to leave.
Meanwhile, Benjamin remainedseated, still calm. He slowly eerieheard ab ut yqycaarfblewt theboakd you lose the bet, you have toleave Amirate and completely losecontrol of it. Please read the originalcontent at NovelDrama.Org.

Grace smiled faintly. "Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. But there's no free lunch in this world. Let's drop this collaboration.”With that, she walked out of the private room without looking back.
