Genius Child: First Night With CEO
Chapter 6. Negotiations

"Your name, Daniel?"

"Yes, Uncle," Daniel smiled.

"When have you been good at painting?" tanya Gavin switched the conversation.

"For a long time. Merely, Mommy just gave me a painting tool a while back."

"What does that painting mean?" asked Gavin who was so curious.

Daniel looked up at the ceiling of the room, "I want to fly, Uncle. I drew beautiful wings, which stretched wide around the Ocean. The wing that was able to take me to a place, called a cloud. Wings are a sign, if I can fly, Uncle. With those wings, I don't have to bother buying an expensive plane ticket to see my Daddy!" Daniel said passionately.

"Walking to your Daddy? She's gone?" Gavin scrunched his forehead.

"No, he still has Uncle. He got on a plane, far away ... I, can't run after him. Mommy said Daddy was more at home living in the clouds than he was at home with Mommy and me. That's why, I drew wings, so I could fly to get Daddy home."

"Ah, already. Forget that story. I see," Gavin nodded.

Does Uncle like my paintings?" daniel looked at Gavin.

"Your painting actually has a lot to improve. Only, the judges liked it. So, I had no choice but to accept it." Gavin replied that he would not lose.

"Oh, fine then Uncle. I'm okay, I don't have to be the winner, because Mommy doesn't allow me to paint. Can I bring my painting home? I just want to go home, I want to bring my paintings," replied Daniel not sad.

"Why aren't you sad?"

"Why am I sad? Mommy forbade me from crying. I must be strong, Uncle. Mommy said the boy can't be whiny. If I fail, I can try again and again." Daniel was so excited.

"It's very excited you apparently. Speaking of your painting, you can't take it home!" Gavin.

"Why Uncle's? That's mine!" Daniel doesn't seem to accept it.

"I've put the painting in a place you won't be able to see! In exchange, I will pay for your painting according to the agreement stated in the competition." Gavin.

"How much are you gonna pay me?" ask Daniel without hesitation.

"5000$, for your painting!"

"30000$, Uncle!" Daniel negotiate.

"What's? 30000$? It's impossible! No way, the price of your painting will not fall from 10,000$ only!" Gavin was underestimating.

"Alright, then give me back my painting, Uncle! I'd better just take it home, and give it to Mommy!" Daniel won't lose.

Oh God! This is the first time in my history I've served as CEO of the Louvre gallery. There are people who dare to reject my offer! And then, this is a child! The little boy who dared to refuse my offer! Instead of being afraid of me, he challenged me! Gavin's growling in the heart.

"You're not afraid of me? Why do you dare to negotiate with me? Look at me! Do you know, who I am? Do you know who I am, little boy?" challenge Gavin.

"CEO!" Answer Daniel.

"Rubber. Then why are you so brave?"

"Shut up! Said Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, just! Who is your Mommy? Is his position higher than mine, ha?" Gavin began to get emotional.

"No, Uncle. Uncle is a rich man. Mommy is not a rich man, but Mommy is the best in my life. Mommy is very kind, Mommy is considerate, Mommy is very beautiful, and she is also very good at cooking. The cuisine is very special, more delicious than any fancy restaurants anywhere. Because Mommy ... made it lovingly!" Daniel praised Ellea.

"Currently, no one will be able to resist the cuisine of the Chef in my house! Why are you so good at boasting, little boy!" Gavin's emotion again.

Oh my God... Why am I being so emotional in this child? Why should I behave like him? He's a fucking bitch! Why did this boy meet me!

"Uncle, I'm just telling you, that's all."

"Ah, whatever you do! Bottom line, 5000$, take it or not at all!" Gavin.

"No, Uncle. 30000$, or nothing!" Daniel followed Gavin's words.

"How dare you! Even if you beg, if it doesn't go my way, then I won't give it!" Gavin no longer cared who he was talking to.

"All right, then. I'll leave it to the police. They'll take care of Uncle, if Uncle holds my painting!"

"Little boy, what do you know about cops, huh? You don't know shit. In fact, I can report you back, on suspicion of extortion! Even if you call the police, hundreds of my lawyers won't stay silent!" Gavin is like a child.

"Alright, Uncle will win, because Uncle is rich. I'll budge, on someone like Uncle. Just take my painting, if I meet my Daddy later, I'll pay back the painting!" Daniel stood up, he was emotional, then left.

Gavin felt guilty. He shouldn't be emotional to a kid like Daniel. Gavin should understand the attitude of the child who is still unstable and in accordance with his wishes. Not without reason, Gavin was carried away by emotions, because he seemed to remember him in childhood. Being a naughty and annoying kid. Just like Daniel, who dared to fight him. Gavin was like that.

"Wait on! Where are you going! I haven't told you to come out yet" Gavin stood up.

"For more, Uncle? Please just take my painting, I don't need your money. I still have both hands, to make a painting that is dozens of times more beautiful than that!" Daniel won't lose.

"Alright, alright. Sit down first, I'll renegotiate the price for your painting. Come here, Boy!" Gavin.

Daniel smiled wryly, he deliberately like that because he wanted to see Gavin feel guilty. Daniel wants to make his mother happy, he wants his mother's life to be better than before. During this time, Ellea and herself were only able to eat meat twice a month, even if only given by Samuel. Daniel wanted to eat well every day and his mother had no trouble thinking about money.

"What does Uncle want to say again?" ask Daniel.

"How much do you want?" Gavin asked back.

"30000$, Uncle."

"I've decided, to give you 20000$, how?" Gavin again negotiated.

"What poor Uncle?" ask Daniel without warning.

"What the hell are you talking about? I'm Crazy Rich in this country. I am the number 1 richest man whose wealth will not run out seven derivatives, and seven climbs. And, what do you say? Me poor? How dare you mock me? Do you want to know, all my assets and wealth? You must be surprised to see it!" Gavin couldn't hold back his emotions when talking to Daniel.

"Then, why give me 30000$ only, do you still mind? Aren't you rich, Uncle?"

Damn, this kid is so good at talking! I really lost to him. Inner Gavin who was ashamed of losing spoke to Daniel.
