The Good Girl's Revenge

Derek took the document and slowly opened it. The agreement had more than a dozen pages. He flicked through it and closed it without reading it carefully.

People from the Horton Family did not understand what Derek meant.

Derek had a half smile on his face, "You don't have to be in such a hurry, Mr. Robert. Why don't you tell me the distribution of benefits first?"

Derek didn't have the time to read the agreement which had more than dozen pages, nor did he bother to look for the terms on the distribution of benefits.

Robert was taken aback, and then he smiled, "Of course, as for the distribution of interests between the two sides, we propose 70% and 30%."

Derek raised his eyebrows. Unsurprisingly, there was no need to look through the agreement.

Even a fool knew that it was the Horton Family who took 70% while the Xavier Group took 30%. There was also a hint of mockery in Damian's eyes. Some of the other shareholders of the Xavier Group could not remain calm and snorted coldly. It was obvious that they disapproved of the distribution.

Derek's expression did not change, and his was still wearing a smile, but..

"30% and 70%. That's right. You 30% and we 70%. That's good."

His one sentence made people in the Horton Family flustered.

Robert stiffly twitched his lips, "Mr. Xavier, we mean that the Horton Family takes 70%. You are really good at joking."

Derek nodded as if he had known something, "So that's what you mean? You 70%? Sure enough, the Horton Family is also very funny. Look at this, how funny." As Derek spoke, he threw the agreement in front of him away. It was as if he were throwing rubbish.

Robert couldn't maintain his smile, and the expressions of the other people in the Horton Family became gloomy.

Judy was also here. Although Robert had taught her a lesson, she still looked down on H Country. In her opinion, Xavier Group had already benefited a lot as it could have 30% of the benefits.

But the Xavier Group said no and felt that 30% was not enough. The Xavier Group actually didn't know how to appreciate. She wanted to scold them, but when she thought of Robert's warning, she suppressed her anger.

Robert squinted, "Mr. Xavier, we only want the market channels you have. Once the cooperation is made, the Xavier Group will get 30 % of the profits every year without doing anything. I think this is a very cost-effective business.”

"Mr. Xavier also saw the sales of us. 30% is a large sum of money."

Derek's slender fingers tapped on the table casually. He chuckled and shook his head, "Mr. Robert, that's not how business works."

"If the Horton Family wants to occupy the clothing market in H Country, you need access which is in my charge. In other words, without the access I provide, even if the clothes you designed are good and the sales in M Country are high, you can't occupy the market in H Country.”

"Whether Xavier Group will provide the access depends on whether things offered by the Horton Family are attractive enough.”

"Under this condition, 30 % of the profits..." Derek didn't finish his sentence, but everyone present knew what he meant.

Robert's expression became sullen, and he did not speak. Judy could not help but say angrily, "Why are you so arrogant? There are a lot of people who want 30 % of the profits. Do you really think that our Horton Family can only cooperate with you?"

Derek shrugged and reached out, "In that case, help yourself."

"Shut up." Robert glared at Judy coldly.

Robert said last time that Horton Family could only work with the Xavier Group, and if there were other corporations to choose from, Horton Family would not be in such a passive position.

70 % or even 80 % of the H Country's clothing market channels were in the hands of the Xavier Group, in this case, Horton Family could only choose the Xavier Group.

Robert looked Derek meaningfully, "According to Mr. Xavier, how much profit is enough.”

"I will not make things difficult for Mr. Robert. 40% and 60%." Derek said casually.

40% and 60%?

Robert mused as he thought that it was acceptable if the Xavier Group took 40% as it was only 10% higher than what he had planned.

He thought about it for a while Derek added, "The Xavier Group takes 60 %."

What?

When Robert realized it, he couldn't help but stand up abruptly. His face twisted and he said without hesitation, "That's impossible.”

If the Xavier Group took 60%, Horton Family would only take 40 %. How could this be? They would never agree.

Nora, who had been sitting next to Derek and saying nothing, was startled by Robert's sudden reaction. After calming down, she decided to continue saying nothing.

It turned out that the negotiation was like this. It was exciting and thrilling. She could see that Derek was smiling all the time. She admired Derek as he treated this tense negotiation like a family conversation.

Nora couldn't help but turn her head to look at him, but Derek suddenly turned to her and smiled seductively at her.

She immediately looked away, her heart pounding and her ears red.

Derek, who had flirted with his wife, was in a good mood.

One of the shareholders of Xavier Group sneered, "Why is it impossible? Horton Family wanted 70% before, so 40% is not impossible.”

"That's right. Your business is in M Country, and now you want to expand your business to H Country. Before you take, you shall learn to give. You can't take without giving anything.”

"In my opinion, 40% is a little more. It's better to be 30% and Xavier Group shall take 70%."

The shareholders of Xavier Group said one after another. This made the people in the Horton Family blush in anger.

Robert frowned, "Mr. Xavier, I think you know very well how famous the clothing brands of Horton Family are in different countries.”

"Xavier Group is just providing channels, not even taking any risks in sales. Doesn't Mr. Xavier think your distribution is inappropriate in this situation?"

Derek elegantly changed his sitting posture, "Actually, I have channels in my hand. If I can bring in the Horton Family's clothing brand, I just add brilliance to Xavier Group's present splendor.”

Robert frowned even more, "What does Mr. Xavier mean?"

"I believe that you also know that there are many other main businesses in Xavier Group's business fields besides clothing.”

"We don't rely on the clothing sector. We will have an added bonus if we introduce internationally renowned brands into H Country. On the contrary, it won't matter if we don't."

"If Horton Family is not satisfied with the distribution ratio I set, then I, Derek, can only say sorry as I can't help the Horton Family to realize its great ambitions and great ideals of the development.”

Of course, this was what Derek said, but he knew the truth better than anyone else. What he said was right, but it was not totally right.

There was nothing wrong to say that the Xavier Group had its businesses set in many countries.
