Female Novel
Chapter 2546
“Right now..." The corner of Belle's lips was raised slightly. "Let's not talk about that now. I heard thatMallory Corporation will hold a shareholder's meeting in a few days, right?"
"So?" Pierre raised his eyebrows. After the woman in front of him piqued his interest, he was no longerlooking at Luca hatefully.
Whether it be Luca or Luke, he would take his revenge on them for what they did to him, so there wasno need to do anything right now.
Luca was calm. She would not be intimidated by his gaze anyway.
"I've also heard some rumors that this shareholder's meeting is to recall your brother, Percy, from theposition of CEO. Thus, you'll be electing a new CEO for Mallory Corporation. If the rumors are true,then I guess that person will be you, right?" Belle asked him.
The moment the news of the shareholder's meeting was made public, rumors started spreading likewildfire.
Percy's dark past had also been exposed without regard to whether they were true or not.
When Belle saw this news, she found it interesting.
It was interesting to see a fratricidal fight between brothers of the same parents.
"If the rumors turn out to be true, the shareholders will elect the candidate they think is most suitable tobe the CEO of Mallory Corporation. I don't think there's any reason for you to be curious about this, Ms.Chamberlain, unless." Pierre paused and picked up his glass to swirl the water inside.
"What?" Belle's red lips opened slightly as she looked at the man in front of her up and down.
"Unless, Chamberlain Corporation also has Mallory Corporation's shares," said Pierre.
After Mallory Corporation's listing, the shares were a big hit with investors. More and more investorsstarted snapping up shares. Hence, they were not too sure who exactly had bought the odd lots.
"The Chamberlain family had just returned to A City. We don't have shares in Mallory Corporation.However, if you wish to stand at the top of Mallory Corporation, I believe that support from theChamberlain family will help you a lot," said Belle.
"Are you saying we should get married?" Pierre raised his eyebrows at how straightforward this womanwas.
Sure enough, she was different from other girls.
Belle shook her head and smiled. “I don't want to be in a marriage where I'm controlled by my elders. Ijust think that you're different from other rich kids, but that doesn't mean I want to marry you aftermeeting just once. It's just that Mallory Corporation and Chamberlain Corporation have manyopportunities to cooperate in the future. I want the CEO of Mallory Corporation to be someone I knowso that the two companies can have shared profits in the future. As for marriage, I prefer to let naturetake its course."novelbin
After listening to what Belle had to say, the corner of Pierre's mouth curled up into a smile. He intendedto never see her again after today's meal.
Now, it seemed like Belle was not just a typical bimbo. Working with a woman like her would beinteresting.
"I have no thoughts of letting Chamberlain Corporation help out with the shareholder's meeting, but asyou said, there'll be many chances for us to cooperate in the future," said Pierre.
The Chamberlain family's business scope was the same as T Corporation's.
He had also heard that Chamberlain Corporation was going to slowly move their business back to ACity.
During the old master's generation, Chamberlain Corporation built their fortune in A City. However, OldMaster Chamberlain realized that no matter how the company operated, most of the market in A Citywould be dominated by T Corporation. Hence, it was difficult for them to survive here, which was whythey moved to another city to find a different path.
It was a wise decision for them to move at the time. Now that Chamberlain Corporation had grown,they had the ability to go up against T Corporation.
Now, they had decided to move back to fight another war with T Corporation to show who was the bossin the industry.
Chamberlain Corporation wanted to seize the market and business partners.
Mallory Corporation had always been their desired business partner, but Percy had a good relationshipwith Luke, so if Percy continued to be the CEO of Mallory Corporation, there was no chance forChamberlain Corporation to cooperate with them.
Therefore, Belle's reason for wanting to help him was simple.
Belle was not fazed by his refusal as she heard that he had always been beneath Percy.
It was understandable that someone like him, who had always been seen as less-than, wanted to showwhat he was made of.
"Mr. Mallory, I admire you." Belle graciously expressed her admiration and stared straight at him."Mallory Corporation and Chamberlain Corporation will have many opportunities to cooperate in the
future. I know that you're capable, but I also hope that you understand that I'm helping you for the sakeof Chamberlain Corporation, not you."
"Understood." Pierre nodded.
After the brief exchange, he realized that the woman in front of him was not easy to deal with.
He heard that the Chamberlain family only had one daughter as their heir, and many believed that Bellewould eventually have to depend on her husband's family for Chamberlain Corporation to continuegrowing.
However, that might not be the case.
Teaming up with Belle? It could be a good way out.
“Ms. Chamberlain, I admire you too." Pierre contemplated for just a few seconds, but he did not sayyes.
He did not need to rely on women to prove himself.
Plus, the preparations he made were enough to make Percy step down.
The waiter served their dishes, and the two brought their conversation to a halt.
Luca, who was sitting in the other corner, had just finished her meal.
After finishing the last sip of tea, she silently paid the check.
Pierre and Belle's conversation was not very loud, and there was a distance between them and Luca,so no one would be able to hear them from Luca's seat.
However, Luca had heard the entire conversation word for word.
When she was on the Island of Despair, Abel had given her professional listening training. The resultswere average, so Abel had Shanks use acupuncture to develop her hearing nerves.
Now, her hearing was several times better than the average person's.
Therefore, she could still hear them from a distance.
Luca did not expect the woman in front of Pierre to be his new marriage partner.
Chamberlain?
Luca quickly rummaged through her memories. She was familiar with the high society of A City whenshe was with Luke.
However, the name Chamberlain did not ring a bell.
After paying, she stood up and headed straight for the door.
Pierre looked up at Luca leaving with his deep gaze.
After making things clear, Belle smiled and said, "The way you look at her looks like you want to eat herup."
"I don't eat people," Pierre explained to her.
He may not eat people, but he wanted to kill them with his bare hands.
The existence of this woman in A City was humiliating for him.
Belle looked at his gaze and smiled. She would not change her mind even after he refused.
She had never second-guessed her own judgments and observations.
