Sawyer looked at Half-the-Harbor
Langdon’s neutral expression, but in
reality, his heart was fed up with this.
If he did not have another choice and was
not forced to do this, he would not bother t
o entertain Half-the-Harbor Langdon,
the world-famous traitor.
When Kayden and Jasper worked
together, he was able to make Kayden
turn traitor at the most critical time.
Now that the three of them were working
together, it was really hard to say how
much loyalty Half-the-Harbor Langdon
would have.
Even so, in order to ensure self-interest,
Sawyer still had to say and do what was
necessary.
“What opinions can I have?”
Sawyer smiled and said, “You know,
Kennedy is just powerful because he’s
relying on his father. He has never
bothered about you or me. Did you see his
reaction when you offered to cooperate? If
it weren’t for you agreeing to let him pick
some of your property in Harbor City, he’d still be reluctant to cooperate with us.
“Also, you and I know Kennedy’s character. We both know he is not the kind of person who is willing to be directed by others.
“Compared to being ordered around by Kennedy, I believe in your character more, Joe. So, it is better for us to join hands and reach a tacit agreement before voting on some important matters. Of course, I will fully support your decision. Kennedy will have no choice but to accept unless he can steel his heart and have a fall-out with us.
“I have thought about it. With his character, he will not have a complete fall -out with us. Otherwise, he will have offended us and will then have no room to maneuver, especially with the Laws pressuring him on the other side. No matter how strong the W. Langdons are, they are still not strong enough to hide the truth from the masses. When the time comes, won’t you be the one with the final say among the three of us?”
Half-the-Harbor Langdon looked at
Sawyer and asked with a half-smile,
”
Sawyer, what do you want from me now
that you’re supporting me so much?”
Sawyer smiled and said, “Actually, my
request is very simple. How about 15% of
your project in the United Kingdom
Half-the-Harbor Langdon said slowly, ”
You’re not greedy.”
Sawyer shrugged and said, “This is a deal
where you’ll only make a profit. It’s up to
you whether you want it or not.”
“If I say no, you will find Kennedy and tell
him the same thing you said just now, but
the target will be me, right?” Half-the
Harbor Langdon seemed to be able to see
through Sawyer’s soul as he said that.
Sawyer responded without changing his
expression, “No, I told you that Kennedy
and I are not the same. Plus, he despises m
e to the bones, so we can’t cooperate.”
“You’re wrong. I think as long as the
benefits are sufficient, any two people in
this world can cooperate.
“But…”
Half-the-Harbor Langdon stood up, smiled, and stretched out his hand toward Sawyer. He said, “Since I think this sale is a good deal, why should I say no? Then, I shall wish us a happy cooperation.”
“Haha, I know you, Joe, you are a sensible person. We’ll take what we need from each other for mutual benefit.”
“I like what you just said. Mutual benefit.” A few minutes later, Kayden walked into
Half-the-Harbor Langdon’s office. Before he could get there, he saw Sawyer coming out of his father’s office.
When he saw the grin on Sawyer’s face, Kayden turned slightly to let him pass and greeted Sawyer while he was at it, “Mr. Sawyer, you’re still awake.”
“I’m going now. Are you going to talk to your father?” Sawyer asked. He was in a good mood.
“Yes, there are still some arrangements tomorrow that I need to confirm with my father,” Kayden replied.
“Alright, very good.” Sawyer patted Kayden on the shoulder and praised, “Joe is spared of so many worries by having a son like you.”
