Chapter 1130 The So-Called Miracle
"When my friend sent me the video, I asked him to delete it immediately. I came here with a lot of sincerity. Since you've said so, I suppose we don't have to talk about the agreement anymore. I will leave Mexiland in a moment. I'd better not interfere with your business, lest I offend both parties," Waverly said coldly.
"Who is your friend? If you don't tell me, I can only treat you as one of them. If you want to leave Mexiland, it won't be that easy," Thomas warned.
"Joseph. It was Joseph who gave me the video," Waverly said and hung up.
The phone rang with another call from Thomas.
Waverly answered and her tone was impatient as she said, "Is there anything else?"
"Why did Joseph do that? I don't have anything against him," Thomas didn't understand.
"What he wants must be done. If you don't understand him, you can ask your friends about him. I have already told him not to do this, but you insisted on beating around the bush. According to my understanding of him, he will try his best to arrange other people to take over your position. If you don't believe me, just wait and see," Waverly said firmly.
Thomas was frightened, "No, you have to help me. I'm sorry. I was frightened by that video. You said yesterday that you didn't need to threaten me with the video, but today I received the video again. I can only suspect you. I didn't know about the bigger picture, so I wasn't nice to you. You must forgive me."
"I hold no grudges against you, so of course I hope that you will get better. Now, you have two choices. First, become one of Joseph's men. He will bestow you fame, wealth, countless beautiful women and wine. He will also make you feel at ease in your position. Secondly, if you don't become one of Joseph's men, what he has is enough to throw you into prison. You will never be able to have another comeback in this lifetime."
"Of course, I'm willing to work under you. We've always been in an amiable relationship. I think the suggestion you gave me yesterday is quite good. I've already made the contract, so you can come over and sign it later," said Thomas without even thinking.
"Thomas, if it was yesterday, then an agreement would have been reached. However, today, I want to see your utmost sincerity. What do you think you should do for me?" Waverly asked.
"If we are talking about sincerity, then I will handle the transactions in the logbooks quite well as I still have to explain things to the higher ups," Thomas said.
"What about our private transactions?" Waverly asked with the corners of her mouth raised.
Thomas paused for a moment and then asked, "What do you want?"
"A win-win situation is what I want to see. I'm not Joseph. I don't like a win-lose situation. Just relax. I want your connections. Of course, the money I earn will be given to you as dividends. I'll come to your office later and have a good talk with you. I'll sign the contract then. What do you think about that?" Waverly asked.
"Okay, I'll see you later."
"See you later," Waverly said and got up, but her stomach was still uncomfortable.
However, she still had to do what she needed to do.
After washing up, she put on some exquisite make-up and called Boris, "I'll go to Thomas' office for another negotiation later. You two should come with me."
"Madam, have you had breakfast?" Boris asked.
"I don't have much of an appetite. I'll eat after the negotiation. Just wait for me in the hall," Waverly said, hanging up on the call.
After a while, she went to the living room. Not only Boris and Agnes were there, but Joshua was too.
Waverly went straight to Joshua. She felt restless yet calm as she said, "What's your boss' order?"
Not showing a friendly expression to Waverly, Joshua replied, "Tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock, You guys will return with me. We have already arranged for the boat."
"Thank you," Waverly said perfunctorily.
"You don't have to thank me. If it wasn't for Mr. Mccarthy, your title as Peace Lady would've already gone down the drain a long time ago. He will prove your innocence today. The news will probably be aired by 12 o'clock in Mexiland. You'll have to keep an eye out for the news then," Joshua rolled his eyes as he spoke and walked out of the door.
Boris raised his smile and said to Waverly, "Congratulations, Madam. Your position is on the rise."
Waverly was still calm, feeling like she walked out alive from a tsunami. It was as if others were saying to her, "Congratulations, you made it out alive."
"Let's go," Waverly said.
In the car, Agnes was driving. Waverly was silent and looking down, as if she was meditating.
"Madam, aren't you happy? You won't have to bear such an unpleasant crime once your name has been cleared," Agnes asked in confusion.
Waverly said meaningfully, "The problem was both caused and fixed by the same person."
"As such, Madam should be clear about which path to take in the future," Boris understood the meaning of her sentence.
Waverly smiled slightly, "Perhaps that's the case."
"I've traveled all over the country and listened to a lot of history, so I know one thing, that is to bear what ordinary people can't bear and to do what ordinary people cannot do. Madam, you understand how unconditional love works. It's only a matter of time before you experience it. Perhaps there will be such a person who will give you everything you want," Boris comforted her.
Waverly really liked talking to Boris. He seemed to understand her well and knew what she was thinking.
Would there really be such a miracle in the future?
The car stopped by Thomas' office.
Waverly called Thomas and said, "I'm downstairs."
"Alright, alright. I'll come and welcome you right now," Thomas said politely.
Waverly got out of the car and said to Boris, "Agnes can come with me. You should wait outside. Remember that you shouldn't harm others, nor can you let your guard down."
"I understand." Boris said and looked at his watch, "I'll wait for you until half past eleven."
"Okay," Waverly walked into the building.
Thomas personally walked over to her, welcoming her with a smile.
Waverly also smiled and hid her shrewdness in her eyes, "I'm very sorry for troubling you to come and welcome me personally."
"It's what I should do," Thomas said while walking towards the elevator.
His assistant pressed the button for the elevator.
"How long have you been here?" asked Thomas.
"It's been a few days. I'm going to leave tomorrow," Waverly said.
"That's really a pity. There are still a lot of places in Mexiland that you can visit and enjoy. There are also beautiful views and scenery."
"I've been here before and I'll come back here in the future as well. The next time I come here, I'll definitely stick around. This time, I have something important to do back in my country."
"I've asked my friends about Joseph. He's really quite the bigshot. He was also involved in the production of the Thunder Gun. He's invincible all over the world."
"All those are his past achievements. As far as I know, what he is developing now will be dozens of times more powerful than the Thunder Gun. It is estimated that once the research and development succeed, the product will really cause quite the sensation," Waverly said.
"Oh, if that's the case, then he's really an extraordinary person."
"Ha." Waverly chuckled and said, "I'm afraid that he is capable of much more. He has many capabilities that you can't even imagine."
The elevator arrived with a ding.
Thomas walked to his office and said to his assistant, "Help me get two cups of coffee."
"Understood," Thomas' assistant left.
Thomas went straight to the point, "You said you wanted to make use of my connections, but I don't really know what you mean by that. What sort of connections of mine do you want?"
