Presiden's wild wife
Chapter 540 Trust

"Mr. Jacob, the talent has just arrived, why do you have to leave in such a hurry?" Edward appeared smilingly, without any apology on his face.

Jacob took a glance at him and broke him down, "Why, didn't you say Mr. Ford just arrived at the gate to go out to meet him? I thought I'd go out and take a look, but how come Mr. Ford came out from inside?" "......"

Edward face a burst of embarrassment, did not expect to be caught by him to the pain.

The assistant on the side is also indescribably frightened, afraid that he said the wrong half of the word will cause Edward more and more lost face, but if you do not explain, only afraid that they will have to go back to Edward's scolding. Jacob's tense face smiled at the end, "Is it possible that Mr. Ford went to the bathroom before calling his assistant?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Edward saw the steps immediately followed down, "just went to the bathroom, also did not have time to say, the result who knows you unexpectedly came out, this is good to meet, or perhaps miss it may be." Jacob kindly laughed.

Edward pretended not to see the look on his face and pulled his arm forward and headed for the box, "Mr. Jacob, I made a special appointment with you today, you can't run away from the battle." "If Mr. Ford is sincere, then naturally, An will be there to the end."

"If that's the case, that's great!" Edward laughed out loud and turned his head to the assistant behind him and said, "Go, bring in the wine I deposited here, I want to have a good chat with Mr. Jacob." The assistant had no part in the interjection, but had to nod in response.

Jacob was pulled in directly by Edward, Jacob could not but follow his heart and reentered the box.

After three rounds of wine, Edward also directly opened his mind and said directly, "Jacob, I know you are always a smart person, I think you should have known my mind before coming here, right?" Jacob smiled, "I'm sorry, An is foolish."

"No, you're not stupid, you just like to pretend you're not." Edward patted him on the shoulder, meaningfully.

"What does Mr. Ford mean?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't know, I can also say it directly, Mr. Jacob always has the ability and copes well, deeply in my heart, so, are you interested in joining forces with me?" "Join forces? With you?"

He wordlessly squeezed the goblet he was holding with a natural look.

Edward reflected all his emotions in his eyes and his vision deepened, "Yes, with me, Mr. Jacob, you're young and capable, do you think you'll always be subservient to KL? Or do you think you have to follow Logan for the rest of your life?"

He's so good at what he does, it's just a waste to follow Logan around, so why not follow him when he can give him more opportunities and more of everything he wants.

"Sir doesn't do anything to displease me and will let me do what I want to do, so ......"

"That's not the same."

Edward interrupted him in time and even called him by name, "Jacob, you will always stay by Logan's side just as a second-in-command, you will never be able to take the lead yourself, do you understand?" "Dominance?" Jacob frowned, "What is Mr. Ford trying to say?"

"My meaning has been obvious from the beginning!" Edward said word for word, "Join forces with me and take down KL, and you will be the true master of KL and will not need to work under anyone!"

"K......KL!?"

Jacob couldn't speak well anymore, obviously the blow wasn't too bad, "Mr. Ford, are you serious? Also, you are trying to make me betray Mr. I told you I won't......"

"It's not about betrayal, it's about profit." "Mr. Ford......"

"

Jacob wanted to say something else, Edward shook his head at him, "Jacob, in the business world, never think about morality, the most important person to think about first, should be yourself, in addition, you have been Logan's subordinate for so many years, you have never had second thoughts? Or ...... want to override him!"

Jacob's grip on the glass became tighter and tighter, the back of his hand was bruised, as if he was suppressing his impulses.

Edward saw the situation and knew there was an opportunity to take advantage of it and continued to speak, "Jacob, you don't blame me for speaking straight, I just think you have the ability and you are not willing to be here."

"Mr. Ford......" Jacob heavily put down the glass, his hands are a little unstable, the wine also followed the spill, dripping on the clean white tablecloth, the burgundy liquid slowly stained, just like the mind at this time, once stained with Other colors, it will never be clean again.

"I can't answer you now, and...... I'm not able to trust you completely, if I do everything for you and afterwards you give up on me, then I'll lose more than I gain."

Jacob is thoughtful and speaks directly to the biggest distrust in his heart.

Edward stared at him blankly for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Sure enough, talking to you just doesn't require beating around the bush."

Jacob pulled the corner of his mouth and did not continue to speak.

"Jacob, you need time to think it over I can give you time, but I don't want the waiting period to be permanent, understand?" Edward originally also and pleasant words, only the next second the turn of phrase, let people backbone inexplicably came to a cold feeling. Jacob put down his cutlery and picked up his glass and tilted it slightly in his direction to clink it, "Don't worry, if Mr. Ford is sincere, it's not a bad thing."

"Why?" Edward narrowed his eyes and stared at him intently.

Jacob's lips raised a wry smile, "No reason, but as Mr. Ford said, no one wants to sit in one position forever, the taste of being under one person and above all others is too unbearable...... if you can... ..."

The second half of the words he did not say, only, Edward can clearly understand the meaning of his words.

The two men smiled at each other and hit it off.

Jacob didn't stay long, but left after a while.

Waiting for him to leave before the assistant reentered the box, Edward sat in the main seat, a face of gravity, so that he could not help but his heart also followed a beat, quietly hiding in the side did not startle him. It was only after a long time that Edward spoke slowly again, "Get someone to keep an eye on Jacob during this period, I want to know if he really wants to work with me!"

"What......" a flash of surprise from the assistant, "Did Jacob agree to accept the olive branch thrown by Mr. Ford?"

How did it happen so quickly?

Edward shook his head, "That's not true, it's just, I know he has the intention, it's just, he doesn't fully trust me yet." And of course, he's just as inadequate to trust him!
