Chapter 6 Wait For The Joke

Flora didn't notice this subtle change.After hearing Shawn and the others' words, she turned her head to him and asked softly, "Ivan, what do you think?"

When Ivan heard her voice, he quickly turned his head to face her and said respectfully, "Grandma, it's fine by me."

"I'm willing to go to The Renaissance Company and discuss the cooperation."

Flora was delighted when she heard his words, and her eyes were full of appreciation.

Ivan was still sitting there, looking calm and relaxed, like a true heir of the family.

The scene was like a thorn in Shawn's eyes, and the sting made him feel uncomfortable.

"Don't take it so easy."

"During this time, so many family members have tried to talk to people from Renaissance Company to discuss the cooperation. But in the end, they are all disappointed."

"You have never been there so that you might remain calm now."

"When you try it yourself, you will know how difficult it is!" Shawn cast a suspicious glance at Ivan, his tone full of ridicule.

After hearing his words, Ivan still maintained the same calm and indifferent look, "Since I have agreed, I will do my best."

"You better will!" Shawn sneered disdainfully.

But at this moment, another thought suddenly came to his mind.

Flora had absolute power in The Whites. She always had a particular preference for Ivan and recognized him as the future heir of The Whites long ago.

And Shawn, as a descendant of The Whites of the same generation as Ivan, had long been dissatisfied. Now he had finally come across such an opportunity.If he could take advantage of this and make him fall in front of Flora, he might have another chance to compete with Ivan to become the next chairman of Whites.

"Since you are so confident, why don't we make a bet today."

"If you can finally negotiate a cooperation with Renaissance, I will give you the latest sports car I just ordered a while ago."

"But if you fail to do so, then you give up the case you are working with the government on."

At this time, everyone in the conference room subconsciously took a breath of cold air when they heard what Shawn said.

The government-related case that Shawn just mentioned was The Whites' biggest deal this year.If Ivan could really get it out and let them do it, they were sure to make a lot of money out of it.

For something like this, everyone present couldn't be unmoved.But at this time, Flora was sitting on the main seat and watching them quietly. Thus, they didn't dare to expose their thoughts too obviously.Therefore, no matter how eager and eager everyone is, they still pretend to be indifferent and don't take it to heart.

"No problem!" Ivan didn't hesitate. He directly agreed.

And Flora was sitting in her place from beginning to end as if she didn't take their words to heart and didn't plan to intervene.

...

When the meeting was over, Clara heard the bets from others, and she was very anxious.

"Ivan, what's the matter with you today? How could you agree to a bet like that from Shawn? Can't you see what he's thinking?"

"He just wanted me to give up the project I was working on and let him take advantage of it."

"By the way, he also made me lose face in front of my grandma because of this. So that he would have a better chance to replace me in the future."

Ivan sat on the sofa with a calm tone.

"As You know in your heart, why did you fall into this trap? Are you sure that you can finally reach cooperation with The Renaissance Company?"

Clara continued eagerly.

In fact, Ivan didn't know what to do at the moment.The reason why he agreed so readily at that time was because of the message Alice sent him.

But to be honest, he didn't have much confidence now.Now Flora attached great importance to him, and it was a well-known secret that he would inherit Whites in the future.If he really failed this time and failed to reach a cooperation with Renaissance, his status as the next heir to Whites would definitely be shaken.

It was just too reckless to bet on such a big thing. And it didn't look like something he would do at all.

But the words that were said were like water that had been poured out, and there was no possibility of taking them back.

"Mom, I know what I'm doing."

Ivan sat on the sofa, silent for a while, and finally said this.

When Clara looked at his calm look, she turned anxious and angry.

"I think you're in a daze now."

"There were not a few people who contacted The Renaissance before. But how many did they succeed in the end?"

"How can you be sure you can do it?"

How?

When Ivan heard Clara's question at this time, he had a strange feeling in his heart.

At this moment, Alice just came back from outside and walked in through the door.As soon as she entered the door, she noticed that the atmosphere between the mother and son was not right, and the atmosphere in the living room was very depressing.

But Alice didn't intend to interrupt. She greeted the two of them slightly, then turned around and wanted to go to her room.

Ivan's eyes have been staring at Alice since she entered the door.Seeing she was planning to go back to the room, Ivan asked subconsciously.

"Alice, do you think I can do it?"

When Alice heard his words, she would leave with a slammed footstep. But soon, she turned around on her own initiative, looked into Ivan's eyes, and affirmed, "It must be fine!"

"What are you talking about?" Clara frowned when she heard the conversation between the two and asked in a hurry in Alice's direction.

What were these two playing dumb? Could Ivan be so abnormal today because Alice is doing little tricks behind the scenes?

"You explained the matter to me clearly. Are you the one who was playing tricks on it? Did you ask Ivan to take over this matter?"

Clara's tone was nasty, and he asked Alice rudely.

Ivan was evident. If Clara knew that he would agree to discuss cooperation with Renaissance Company today because of Alice, she would definitely quarrel with Alice.

"Mom! I made this decision, don't make nonsense accusations." Ivan said in a soft voice.

"What nonsense accusations? I think this vixen blinded you!"

Clara was so excited when she heard what Ivan said, she opened her mouth and cursed angrily.

"Mom!"

And Ivan frowned when he heard Clara's unceremonious insults and called out with a sour face.

Clara looked at his disapproving look and didn't dare to continue.

She turned her head and glanced in the direction where Alice was, then turned and left in angrily.

Seeing Clara leave, Ivan didn't rush to chase but turned his attention to Alice by the door again.

When Alice noticed his eyes, she said calmly, "I know the person in charge of Renaissance. He was my former friend."

"Great!" Ivan replied lightly and didn't say anything else after that.

Alice nodded slightly, then turned back to her own bedroom.

...

The next day.

Shawn slumped down on his office chair, listening to the report on the other end of the phone. The corner of his mouth couldn't help raising a sneer.

At this time, several well-connected brothers of The Whites were in his office.Seeing Shawn talking on the phone and suddenly laughing, nobody knew what had happened to him.

"Shawn, what are you enjoying? Is there a happy event?"

"Why not share these happy things with us?"

"Could it be that The Renaissance people kicked out Ivan?"

Shawn hung up the phone. He raised his head and laughed a few times, " Ivan is really stupid! It's ridiculous!"
