Chapter 116 Being taking a loss


Julian’s words were rejected by Ann, and he got a complex look.


His face, though at first glance, was cold as usual,


Natalie could see that Julian had other emotions on his face, which was a wordless expression after being provoked,


because his words were denied by others.


She had seen this look many times.



“Who knows if you’ll take action against our family, Mr. Graham?” Said Anh, straightforward, without beating around the bush at all.


“So the bodyguards won’t leave. They are standing here and won’t go anywhere.”


There were too many rumors about Julian in Los Angeles, and Ann had long heard of Julian’s resolution and cruelty.


So she absolutely cannot put her grandson, let alone the Lance Family, in danger.


The bodyguards were here to keep the family safe..


But Natalie furrowed her brows. Ann clearly didn’t notice the change in Julian’s expression. Her impolite


tone…


It would only make Julian more furious, and the Lance Family would also fall into a tougher situation.


Natalie narrowed her eyes and looked at Julian, as if she couldn’t let go of any change in his expression.


However, Julian’s expression was unexpected.


He suddenly smiled.


Seeing this, Natalie felt somewhat relieved. It seemed that she had too narrow a mind for Julian.


But when she looked closer, she realized that although Julian was smiling, there was only chill in his eyes.


He was just smirking.


She immediately withdrew her previous thoughts. Julian was just so narrow-minded.


“Don’t worry. I won’t do anything to your family. Isn’t your grandson standing right here?” He looked at Jerry standing aside and said.


The emotions in her eyes were difficult to see through.


Under the cold gaze of Julian, Jerry twitched his mouth and wanted to speak, but he didn’t say anything for a long time.


Ann did not compromise. “Anyway, the bodyguards will not leave. I also have reason not to believe your words, Mr. Graham.”


She lived several decades longer than Julian, and had already seen various things in this world. She had seen everyone, and naturally knew that people sometimes had ulterior motives.


Especially in the business world where huge interests were involved, where everyone harmed each other and deceived each other under the law of the jungle, people’s hearts would only become more treacherous.


Julian’s words cannot be trusted.


Upon hearing this, Julian stood in the same spot, with a cold smile on his face. Although he was smiling, the expression on his face made it difficult to tell what he was thinking.


Natalie knew Julian well, but she did not love him after all, so all of her understanding of Julian came from daily experiences.


Julian’s expression now was one that he rarely showed during daily interactions, and Natalie couldn’t get it.


The two of them stood still like that. After about half an hour,


Julian finally spoke up. “Then let the bodyguards in the private room.”


Ann didn’t know if he gave in, she only knew that with so many bodyguards standing by her side, she felt a lot more secure in her heart.


After Julian finished speaking, he waved his hand to the bodyguards. Then one of them immediately got him and pulled out the chair behind Ann.


The bodyguard returned back, and Julian raised his head lightly to indicate, “Please sit.”


“Yes, please sit down.” Jerry saw that Julian’s tone was calm as usual, and he couldn’t see any mood swings. So he quickly helped Ann sit down.


After Ann sat down, he also pulled out his chair and sat down.


All three of them were sitting, leaving Natalie standing alone among a group of bodyguards.


She couldn’t help but marvel at her “good” luck. She didn’t know why the bodyguard came just as she pushed the door.


She didn’t know what Julian was going to talk to the Lance family or how long it would last, but she couldn’t stand for long…


Anyway, it seemed that the Lance family would not be in danger, and she only hoped to find a chance to go.


out.


“I wonder what contract you’re going to make me to sign today, Mr. Graham?” Said Ann directly after sitting down.


As always, she came straight to the point.


Natalie raised her eyebrows, surprised that Ann had such a straightforward temperament. When Ann spoke to her just now, she didn’t even notice it.


She was so sick of Niki’s hypocrisy. She now had a natural affinity for people with a straight temper.


Julian picked up the agreement from the table and handed it to Ann. “Please take a look.”


Ann did not take the agreement, but she turned to look at Jerry


Jerry gave her an affirmative look and said, “This is what he just gave me. Please take a look.”


Ann took over the agreement and flipped through it. It wasn’t long before she finished reading it.


“What do you think?” Julian said.


Ann looked serious and said, ‘Good. The planned project is top-level in the country. If our families can work together in this project, the market cap can certainly increase many times”


Julian nodded and agreed with Ann’s words. He emphasized, ‘As long as you sign this, your family will only gain but not lose.”


“But I can’t sign.”


.0


These words, however, made Julian’s face, which had just looked better a bit, darken again,


“Why?” He couldn’t help but ask.


“We’ve already signed a contract with another company, and we can’t turn over the money for such a big project.” The reason of Ann was the same as that of Jerry just now


It proved that the Lance family did not lie.


“Which company did you sign the contract with?” Asked Julian. Besides Glory Group, Julian didn’t believe that


there could be a more powerful company in Los Angeles than Graham Group.


But Glory Group had always developed independently and did not cooperate with any company, which was also the reason why Julian first ruled out Glory Group.


Ann did not answer.


“I believe you weigh the pros and cons of this better than I do. Choosing us will obviously get more than choosing other companies.” Julian said when he saw Ann keeping silent. He knew that she must be


hesitating.


He didn’t believe that the she would be foolish enough to choose a company that was inferior to Graham Group to cooperate with.


“Think about it.” Julian said in a calm and composed tone, with great confidence in the outcome.


“If you choose us, you can bring your appeal to us at any time, and we will help. This is not only a cooperation in project, but also a cooperation between two companies.


No company could refuse the opportunity to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with Graham Group.


Upon hearing Julian’s words, Natalie couldn’t help but shake her head. It seemed that Julian really had confidence in Graham Group’s strength.


But he did not know the fact that there was always someone who was better than him.


Not all companies in this world were eager to cooperate with Graham Group.


Get Boys –


It was obvious that Julian’s faith had once again failed.


Ann didn’t even think about it. After Julian finished his last sentence, she said without hesitation, “No, we


won’t work on this.”


She was very decisive, and there was no room for negotiation.


Julian’s face instantly turned livid. Unlike before, Julian’s furious mood could be seen by everyone present.


His face showed how anger he was.
