"Miss Cole, I can’t make the decision on this matter," Erie said helplessly, putting down the clothes in her hands.
She discreetly turned around to block Hayley Cole.
Just now, she seed to have seen Sophie Wilson sitting in the dessert section upstairs. At this mont, she couldn’t let Sophie interfere.
"Hey, why are you all like this?" Hayley Cole wasn’t soone with a good temper. The only reason she’d stuck around this long was because of Jas Reed, "Everyone else is scrambling for this opportunity, yet when I bring it to you, you’re pushing it away?"
Erie said helplessly, "I want it too. Do you think I don’t want my company to excel?"
Speaking of this, Erie felt quite wronged: "But there’s no choice. Benjamin said Jas has to agree to this. He can’t accept it. It wouldn’t be fair to Jas."
"What kind of fairness is that?" Hayley Cole said, "I’m helping him, it’s for his good. Can you really bear to see him driven out of the company like this?"
"Not to ntion you almost beca family before, even now, you’re still in a business partnership, right?" Hayley Cole was more anxious than Erie, "Don’t you want to win the bid?"
"Of course I want to!" Erie nodded firmly, "Who wouldn’t? But Benjamin said we can’t exploit Jas for this. Jas doesn’t want to owe you, so we can’t interfere."
"You really are..." Hayley Cole stomped her foot angrily, "so stubborn!"
"Hey, hey... Miss Cole, why are you leaving?" Erie quickly chased after her.
Hayley Cole was truly angry.
Isn’t this too much?
She wanted to inquire about the bidding situation for Jas, but he directly refused her, saying he didn’t want to trouble her.
Fine, Jas valued his pride and didn’t want to rely on a woman. She could take that.
She found out that Jas was recently cooperating with Benjamin Walton. Jas, fine, she’d go and ask Benjamin then?
Who would have thought that Benjamin would also refuse her?
She still rembered how troubled Benjamin looked at that ti, "Miss Cole, I really hope you could help us, but Jas is my friend. If I cooperate with you behind his back, I’m afraid I’d lose Jas as a friend."
Alright then.
Since she couldn’t get through via Benjamin, she approached Erie.
And even Erie ended up refusing her. It was truly too much.
Everyone else was finding all possible ways to secure the bid, yet she was handing it to them, and they all refused.
Did they really think she had no temper?
"Sigh... Miss Cole." Erie stopped the visibly upset Hayley Cole and said, "Actually, as far as I’m concerned, saying all this to Benjamin and is useless. The key is still Jas’s attitude."
"You’re doing this for Jas’s sake anyway. If you go ahead, what can Jas say in the end?" Erie’s words lifted Hayley Cole’s spirits, and she asked excitedly, "Will that work?"
"Why wouldn’t it?" Erie was always soone who did whatever ca to her mind, as long as she was happy and felt it was right. She was straightforward in giving Hayley Cole advice, "Just do it, and even if you win the bid, Jas can’t just walk away from it."
"Miss Cole, do you like Jas?" Erie’s direct question made Hayley Cole a bit embarrassed. She lowered her head, lightly tapping her toes on the ground, mumbling softly, "W-what nonsense are you talking about?"
