Chapter 1121 Sending Money to Her Clearly
The man was dressed in a sharp suit and had handsome features, with a polite and gentle smile on his
face. He also carried a file bag in his hand.
For Raymond, this young man who suddenly visited was a stranger.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"I'm Zack Evans, the executive assistant to the CEO of Callahan Group. Just call me Zack," he replied.
Hearing the sound at the door, Mavis stopped what she was doing and looked up. "Zack? What brings
you here? Come on in."
Zack walked past Raymond and sat down on the side sofa without being polite with Mavis.
"Mr. Callahan sent me here. He's been very busy these days with lots of meetings that he can't finish Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
every day. He couldn't make it over himself so he asked me to tell you not to misunderstand him. It's
not intentional that he hasn't come," Zack explained.
Mavis felt confused but smiled awkwardly nonetheless. "His schedule has nothing to do with me.
There's no need for you to go out of your way just for this."
"This is not a small matter. You're Mr. Callahan's wife after all so naturally, his whereabouts should be
reported to you now unlike before when Mr. Callahan didn't do well enough," Zack retorted firmly as if
implying something deeper than what met the eye. "Mr. Callahan said that from now on things will
change."
Mavis lowered her head and was unable to express how she felt about hearing those words. It wasn't
exactly joyous nor repulsive but rather complex emotions stirred within her heart.
Raymond snorted then walked over while putting his hands into pockets before saying, "What an act! If
reporting whereabouts is really important, why doesn't he just call?"
"Mr. Callahan... doesn't want to not call." Zack looked meaningfully at Mavis then continued, "Is Mr.
Callahan's number still blocked by your blacklist?"
Mavis paused for a moment then remembered one night when Anthony was drunk. After they slept
together, Anthony secretly saved his number into her phone. She later discovered it and blacklisted
without much thought. Thereafter, she forgot about it completely until now...
"It seems like it might be still blacklisted... but we don't usually contact each other anyway so I haven't
paid attention," Mavis replied hesitantly.
"That's alright too since Mr. Callahan probably doesn't mind," Zach shrugged nonchalantly as if
dismissing any further discussion about it. "Actually today I came mainly because of another very
important matter."
He took out a contract from inside his file bag before handing it over to Mavis saying, "Take a look at
this first."
As she read through its contents carefully, Mavis slowly became more surprised, "Anthony wants us
both to sign a trade agreement with my company in Bostrain?"
Moore who had been busy dealing with official matters nearby immediately turned towards them upon
hearing these words uttered aloud.
Zack nodded. "Yes, the Callahan Group doesn't have any projects in Bostrain. I heard that the
development over there is going well, so Mr. Callahan wants to establish cooperation with you."
"I'm not the only one doing foreign trade in Bostrain. If he wants to make money, he can find a bigger
and more powerful company," she retorted.
Zack chuckled. "Why let others take advantage of a good opportunity? Cooperation with you would be
mutually beneficial and reliable."
As Zack spoke, Raymond leaned over to sit next to Mavis and looked at the contract with her. He was
shocked by what he saw.
"Wow! Anthony is so generous! The Callahan Group will fully authorize my sister to handle their
business in Bostrain. If there are any losses from our cooperation, the Callahan Group will bear all
responsibility. And profits will be split 80/20 between my sister and the group respectively. With such a
low profit margin, how much money can they really make?"
Zack smiled again. "Mr. Callahan's intention isn't just about making money. It's also about Mrs.
Callahan's opinion."
Mavis lowered her gaze thoughtfully but didn't say anything.
Not far away, Moore frowned deeply.
Although he didn't understand Zack's words, he could guess what kind of intentions Anthony had -
trying to gain favor with them.
He stood up and walked towards the living room saying, "I'm sorry but we'll only cooperate with one
company - Lloyd's Corp."
Zack ignored him completely, "I know you hold a vice-president position at your company but ultimately
Mrs. Callahan has decision-making power here. It should be up to her."
Seeing that she seemed hesitant about something, Zack continued, "Mrs. Callahan, as Mr. Callahan
said, business should be separated from personal feelings. We should only discuss benefits when
cooperating. Moreover, even if you really want divorce half month later, you need money when you go
live in Bostrain with Alistair. You know, Alistair enjoys nothing but best things now under the Callahan
family. You must want him have best thing, right?"
Of course she did.
She wouldn't let her son's future life quality decline after he lived with her.
But this offered cooperation…
Mavis didn't answer immediately. Instead, she read through every clause on the contract once again.
While claiming that business was separate from personal matters, Mavis knew very well that this
cooperation request from Anthony was clearly an attempt at buying their favor. She wasn't sure
whether or not they should accept it yet. She turned towards Moore asking for his opinion, "What do
you think of this proposal?"
Moore whispered a reminder, "Have you forgotten that we promised the Lloyd's Corp that we would
only engage in trade cooperation with Crana through them? We agreed to be their overseas agent. If
we accept Callahan Group's offer now, it would be a breach of contract."
Zack replied, "Mrs. Callahan, you don't need to worry about this at all. The Lloyd's Corp has had many
business dealings with Callahan Group and they have a good relationship. This cooperation only
requires Mr. Callahan to inform Ms. Lloyd, and she will agree. Besides, both parties will make money
without delaying the development of the Lloyd's Corp in Bostrain."
Moore looked unhappy.
Mavis turned to Raymond on the other side and asked, "You're going to start your internship right after
this holiday ends? What do you think?"
Raymond was clear-headed, "If someone is offering us money on a silver platter, why not take it? Just
sign it since we won't lose anything anyway."
Moore said worriedly, "Anthony is very cunning. Who knows what tricks he might play? Raymond, you
should advise Mavis against this."
Zack was annoyed by Moore's meddling in other people's business as an outsider, "If a husband wants
to spend money making his wife happy without any ulterior motives behind it and if the terms of the
contract are written clearly with signatures stamped on it, then there is legal effectivity for both parties
involved. If Callahan Group does not comply with the contract, then they will have to pay
compensation."
Moore shut up successfully.
After weighing their options carefully, Mavis agreed, "Alright then! There are no problems with the
agreement so if Mr. Callahan agrees, he can contact me anytime for us to officially sign our
partnership."
"Great!" Zack answered cheerfully before leaving but not before his gaze landed on Moore," Mrs.
Callahan, when you return home, will Mr. Ulsens manage all company affairs?"
"Yes I'll manage them. Is there any problem?" Moore quickly responded.
Zack smiled casually, "No problem at all but once our partnership becomes official, you need to return
back Bostrain as soon as possible or else it may delay future trade processes."
Mavis reassured him, "Don't worry about that. He should be returning soon even if its not because of
this partnership."
"Then that's great!" Zack couldn't hide his happiness as he stood up extending his hand towards Mavis,
"Mrs. Callahan, no, Miss Parker, I wish us both happy cooperation!"
Mavis smiled back while shaking hands with him.
The two of them used to work together at Callahan Group, and now, although they were not colleagues
anymore, they were become partners.
As soon as Zack left, Moore's face turned grim. "Mavis, you're being foolish. It's obvious that Anthony is
using this opportunity to try and push me out. How could you agree to it?"
