Chapter 762: Chapter 758: Playing the Richelle Dunn Card, Miscalculation
Charlie Gyons uttered a sound, “Speaking of which, it seems like there’s quite the fate between my junior fellow and me.”
Roy Lewis had a bad feeling in his heart, as expected, he heard Charlie Gyons say.
“I heard that my junior fellow just got married, and his wife, well, she happens to be an old acquaintance of mine.”
Roy Lewis had already figured out that Charlie Gyons’s sudden gentleness was a facade.
“Is that so? My wife and child lived in South Asia for a few years, so it’s not strange that they may know you.”
Roy Lewis also knew that Charlie Gyons would definitely make a fuss about Richelle having been Royce Gyons’s girlfriend, so he simply exposed the secret himself, leaving the other party with nothing to reveal.
“Moreover, she mentioned that a few years ago, the president of United Ventures, Royce Gyons, had pursued her passionately for a while. Thinking about it now, when you say the old acquaintance, you are probably referring to Mr. Gyons?”
Though he brought this up himself, Roy Lewis still felt a bit sour in his heart.
But of course, nothing could be seen on the surface.
Charlie Gyons was quite surprised. He actually intended to mention the relationship between his brother and Richelle back then.
Roy Lewis forced him off his path, leaving him with nowhere to go.
He looked at Roy Lewis carefully, trying to determine if he truly didn’t mind.
But Roy Lewis’s face remained calm and composed, showing no signs of discomfort or concern.
However, even so, he decided to stick to his original plan and play this card.
“It seems that Dr. Dunn has kept something from you. Actually, my brother and Dr. Dunn had a more than just a pursuit. Richelle was once my brother’s girlfriend, and they were even on the verge of discussing their wedding.”
Although Roy Lewis had long known that this was only Royce Gyons’s forced behavior towards Richelle, he couldn’t help but feel annoyed when he thought of the close and affectionate manner Richelle and Royce Gyons had shown to each other in front of The Gyons family members as a couple.
“Richelle didn’t hide anything. Her being such an excellent woman is normal to be liked and pursued. Besides, all those things are in the past.”
While cursing inwardly, Roy Lewis was also grateful that Richelle had given him a heads-up beforehand.
Otherwise, if he had heard such news without any knowledge, he couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t do something earth-shattering.
Charlie Gyons’s so-called trump card had absolutely no effect on Roy Lewis.
However, in reality, it did have a considerable impact.
It’s just that Roy Lewis hid it so well that on the surface, it seemed as peaceful as ever, with no casualties.
Seeing that his first strategy failed, Charlie Gyons persisted saying,
“A thing of the past? I heard that my brother is still pursuing Dr. Dunn.”
In order to provoke Roy Lewis, Charlie Gyons didn’t mind accusing his own brother of being immoral.
Roy Lewis smiled, raised his glass, and clinked it with Charlie Gyons.
“Brother, please relay this message to your brother: Richelle and I share an unbreakable bond, and furthermore, we have three smart, lively, and adorable little darlings. Not even an immortal can shake our relationship, let alone your brother.”
Charlie Gyons’s attack, rendered ineffective.
But it did ignite Roy Lewis’s ferocity within.
In the afternoon negotiations, his words turned much sharper.
The obscure points he had left in the morning had all been settled firmly, leaving no room for compromise.
And Charlie Gyons finally tasted the price of challenging Roy Lewis’s limits and provoking him to anger.
“Mr. Gyons, to be strict, your country’s agricultural products aren’t quite in line with the Federation’s requirements for raw materials. In terms of manufacturing costs, using your country’s raw materials is nearly 10% higher than using those locally produced in East Asia. Therefore, your country’s agricultural products hold no attraction to us whatsoever.”
Charlie Gyons and his team exchanged glances as they listened to Roy Lewis’s unyielding critique.
For a moment, the atmosphere at the negotiation table was tense and oppressive. After saying that, Roy Lewis closed his documents, presenting an attitude ready to leave the table at any time.
This demeanor not only frightened Charlie Gyons.
Even Benjamin Fred was taken aback.
Benjamin always knew that Roy Lewis had an iron-fist approach.
But he had always assumed Roy Lewis was a gentle and polite gentleman on the surface.
However, it seems that those were not the entirety of Roy Lewis’s persona.
Or perhaps, were simply a disguise.
Roy Lewis was actually a meat-eating predator, who would lie in wait, aiming for the right chance to strike and make a deadly blow on the prey.
“Master Lewis …”
Benjamin worried that Roy Lewis’s harsh approach would render the negotiation unable to continue.
Roy Lewis glanced at him, indicating that he had everything under control.
Charlie Gyons secretly cried out that this was bad.
Though he didn’t want to admit it, he knew very well that there was a huge disparity between him and Roy Lewis, as vast as the gap between heaven and earth.
At the same time, he knew that Roy Lewis had two states.
When at ease, he was a gentle and polite gentleman.
On the contrary, he became ruthless and heartless like a demon when provoked to anger.
And it was evident that Roy Lewis was currently in the second state.
Although he was silent, the overwhelming and terrifying aura that emanated from him filled the room and sent shivers down everyone’s spine.
For a moment, there was a deadly silence on the scene.
