Chapter 90
"My request has already been approved.I guarantee that within three months, NY Company will not lose to Nakamura in terms of
technological advantage in microbial fermentation."
This was also the guarantee that Jael and his team had given Anika when they entered the profession.
"Sure, prepare the contract."
Macy was straightforward.
Anika was obviously stunned.
Macy smiled and said, "What, are you surprised?"
Anika nodded, "I was a little surprised, or rather, I didn't expect you to agree so fast"
Although she believed that she was 80% confident that she could convince Macy to win Nevers’ cooperation.
Macy was much more straightforward than she had expected.
"Just pretend that I have selfish intentions.By agreeing in advance, I'm betraying your favor.Anika raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Then, can I know the reason?"
Macy would not casually make the decision to cooperate, but there should be some other reason for agreeing in advance.
"Probably.I used to be preoccupied with fighting for myself and the important things around me, but now I want to fall in
love.Now...I'll call you my younger sister"
Macy remarked with a smile, "but I also want to be considered an aunt.
Anika's eyes revealed surprise, "You and Uncle?"
Macy nodded slightly.
Anika was dumbfounded for a moment before shaking her head and laughing.
She did not expect that Scott, who had never been married, would actually be entangled with Macy.
"However, that's not the only reason"
Macy gently swung her short hair and said, "I don't want others to make me unhappy, and I don't want them to be happy”
"You should know that Nevers opened the makeup line in the second half of the year"
Anika grunted and waited quietly for the next moment.
Macy said mockingly, "Colorful makeup can't be used to cover up plagiarism, but it's still unpleasant to be called an affordable
replacement."
After listening for a while, Anika thought for a few moments and understood what Macy meant.
She was talking about Nevers being hit by Lucy's own makeup brand Arte.
Arte's new product had a lot of similarities to some of Nevers’ best-selling models, but with a half-priced pricing approach.
Lucy might want to quickly recover her profits and prove her ability, but she was too eager.
She was moving too fast to try to obtain something big.
Doing so not only offended Macy, but also set the tone for Arte's low-end imitation, which was not conducive to long-term
development.
Lucy had enough money after selling the shares to see the company through the early phases, unlike the counterfeit brands that
began copying them due to a lack of funds.
Whether Lucy was anxious to get Mrs.Sonia's permission to marry into the Jenkin Family or had tried to humiliate her in the past,
Anika felt she had already made the worst start to her business.
Anika took a deep breath, and generously extended her hand to Macy and said, "Sis, believe me, the NY Company and the
Nevers’ cooperation will be a win-win situation"
Macy agreed straightforwardly.
Perhaps it was because of Scott, or perhaps she had some uncomfortable feelings for Lucy.
But essentially, the other party trusted the NY Company and her.
Macy held her hand and nodded, "Alright, to a good cooperation!"
After finalizing the cooperation, Nevers moved quickly and provided the preliminary details of the cooperation that afternoon.
They had already prepared what the contract would contain.
After returning home from work, Sara sent a message which said that she had already sent the documents to Anika's email
address.
Anika sat at her desk and opened her laptop.
Just as she was about to pull up the file to browse, she realized that her computer didn't seem to be connected to the internet.
After trying to plug in the internet cable, she still didn't have the internet connection.
She was going on a business trip tomorrow.
Obviously, she needed to deal with these matters today before Sara could reply to Nevers.
She had no choice but to carry her laptop and go to study.
The door to the study room wasn't closed.
Looking around, Zac sat in front of the computer in a suit.
His expression was serious, as if he was having a video conference with someone.
He glanced at Anika standing at the door, the man put down his palm that was placed between his straight nose and said in a
clear voice, "Let's rest for half an hour.We'll continue later” Then, turned off the video.
"What's the matter?"
He raised his eyebrows to ask her.
Anika curled her lips and said, "The laptop is broken.’ In the morning, she even threatened to be angry with Zac, but now, she
had no choice but to take the initiative to find him.
Anika was a little embarrassed and felt that her anger was already fading.
"Okay, let me see."
The man took the laptop in her hand and fiddled with it for a while.
Then, he said with a frown, "The network card is broken.If you're in a hurry, use this one first."
Zac handed Anika another lighter laptop, which he usually used privately at home.
Anika glanced at him and thought that she still wanted to reply to Sara.
She didn't refuse and softly took it.
Her expression, on the other hand, suggested that she had no intention to return to work so fast.
She felt a little complicated.
She returned to her room with the laptop in her arms.
An hour later, Anika finally finished her work.
Before she could finish her meal, she took some snacks from the drawer to help her stomach.
She thought of going on a business trip tomorrow, so she opened her browser and prepared to check the weather on JH City's
side.
When she clicked on the search box, a search history was what popped up.
[Ten Criteria for a Good Husband!]
[20 Days of a Good Husband's Quick Accomplishment]
[Repair Skills Required for Excellent Men]
"What?" Anika said.
After she paused for a while, Anika finally couldn't restrain her curiosity and clicked on one of the links.
After Zac finished his conference call with the overseas branch, Anika was about to enter the kitchen to cook when she walked
downstairs.
When she saw Zac, she smiled and asked, "Hun, what do you want to eat?"
Zac raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He couldn't understand why the person who had purposefully kept a cold expression and appeared to be angry had suddenly
become kind.
After hesitating for a while, Zac slowly said, "Oh, I feel like eating pasta -"
"Alright’ Half an hour later, the two of them sat down at the dining table.
On the table, there were two bowls of steaming, creamy carbonara.
"Eat.” Anika handed him a fork.
Zac took it and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing much.’ She raised her eyes to look at him and then said, "I just feel that you are a little more cute today"
He discovered that he secretly searched for ways to repair water pipes, install light bulbs, and even browsed through brands of
detergent.
The anger in his heart mysteriously dissipated whenever he remembered how arrogant he was.
‘Who would have thought that Zac had a wild and proud front but behind that front, he was the domesticated type.
Anika admired the man’s unnatural finish of the pasta as he went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
She stood at the door and waited for him.
After Zac came out of the kitchen.
Anika smiled and asked, "In the beginning, why did you let me stay in the second bedroom?"
She could no longer wait for him to coax others.
What was the use of tidying up the living room? He was not afraid that she wouldn't discover it.
Seeing that she had returned to normal, Zac chuckled and asked, "Hun, have you ever heard of a sentence? It's a good thing to
be near the water."
"Have you calmed down?" He caressed her head.
"Yes." Anika answered.
She tilted her head to look at him.
Her eyes flashed with a sweet light as she smiled and said, "Hun, actually, I also want to pick the moon.’ Take the moon off and
soar into the sky.
"Is that so?"
The man pulled down his collar, wrapped his arms around her waist, and leaned over to her ear.
His mellow voice was like a low silent kiss, "Then I'll teach you how to pick it."
