I've let down Brother Ethan and CEO Palmer." Ashley's eyes are a little red. He was both worried and upset.
Durham Group hardly paid attention to Palmer Group, so they would not care about a small secretary like him and actually signed a contract with Palmer Group who liked Palmer Group.
Even if Diane came, she probably wouldn't have signed the contract either.
Ashley looked extremely annoyed, but Winston only shook his head.
"The Great Boss told you to come here, but he doesn't expect you to close the deal."
"Why?"
"He's just fishing" Winston said calmly. "And we're just fishing rods."
Ashley pursed her lips and felt increasingly wanting to cry.
They're not even bait, and just fishing rods.
He doesn't even mind being a fishing hook. It's impossible for Ethan to use it as bait.
"So ... So who's the bait?" he asked a little angrily. If he was just a fishing rod, he wanted to know who was qualified to be the bait.
"He's alone, of course." Winston rolled his eyes at him. Is this so hard to understand? She couldn't believe Ashley had actually asked.
"What-what?" Ashley was really confused and it took a while to get her. "So you're saying Brother Ethan is the bait, CEO Palmer is the hook, and we're the fishing line?"
In that case, he was still considered a rather important factor.
Without a fishing rod, it is impossible to catch fish with just a hook and bait.
Winston looked at Ashley for a moment. He did not believe that the random metaphors he used would be taken so seriously by him.
"That's right," he nodded. "So, you have done a good job in completing your mission. The fishing rod has been cast into the sea here, and the bait will come next. So we just have to wait for the fish to take the bait."
Winston usually knows more or less what Ethan wants to do, but when it comes to figuring out exactly why Ethan did all this and what he's going to do next, he's going to do, Winston never bothered to throw away his brain cells for such things.
Ethan never does anything predictable, so random guessing is too tiring and it's easier to let nature run its course. Ethan will consider everyone, including what each person will do and to what extent.
Ethan is very good at judging others!
After he finished consoling Ashley, Winston got up. "Alright, rest well. Once the martial arts academy premises are fixed, we'll be busy."
He walked to the door and narrowed his eyes as his voice turned icy cold, "It will really become very lively after that day arrives."
With that, she opened the door and walked out, leaving Ashley standing dazed inside the room. After comparing his foresight to Ethan, he suddenly felt they were both from two different universes.
"I'm still a little sad because things didn't work out, but it's not a bad thing to be Brother Ethan's fishing rod as well" he murmured to himself. Then he looked at the door of the closed room. "What is Winston? A fishing buoy tied to my fishing rod?"
Meanwhile, the,
The Durham Group.
Shane started cursing as he sat in his own office.
"You're all just trash!"
"How dare you demand another $30 million from me when you can't even accomplish something as simple as this? Parker, do you still dare to say that you made a decision in Seoul?!" Shane did not bother to be polite at all and shouted furiously, "It looks like I have to tell my family about this! Handing over illegal hoops to people like you might be a mistake!"
The person across there was also not in a good mood. After Shane attacked him like that, Parker also wanted to kill him!
He threw the phone aside and stared coldly at West and his other men knelt in front of him.
"You b*stards! A bunch of fools! You really embarrassed me!" parker shouted furiously. Shane had reprimanded him so loudly, but he could not even refute. "Is it so hard to kill just one person?!"
