Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 3165

Mavis Holds Shares In The Company Mavis' face flushed red and then paled under the sting of Sylvester's words.

If it were Luke, would she agree to be his mistress? She was willing to stand beside that god-like man regardless of her status.

Mavis also felt she had the ability to bechis only one.

However, Luke did not give her that chance.

Apart from Luke, Mavis would never be any other man's mistress, including Sylvester who was in front of her.

"Boss, why are you bringing up the past?" She knew Sylvester was dissatisfied. He was deliberately picking on her, even intending to mock her.

Sylvester narrowed his eyes and said, "Ms. Laviere, as you know, I have no feelings for that hag at home. If you agree to be with me, I'll give you the best, including a family. You'll be my wife then. Why won't you agree?" He admired Mavis.

Not only was she beautiful, but she was also incredibly competent at her job.

Sylvester knew that although Mavis had made a mistake this time, as long as she continued to work in the company, she would definitely bring huge benefits to the company.

Elevating his wealth and status a bit more would not be a problem.

However, Sylvester had also looked into Mavis' past. Mavis stayed at T Corporation the longest. Every company she joined after that, she did not stay for long. The reason was straightforward-she felt they lacked challenges. Whenever a company started to stagnate, she would simply quit.

No matter how those company's bosses tried to retain her or what conditions they offered, Mavis would not agree.

Sylvester appreciated her drive for improvement, but he also knew that if things continued like this, he would not be able to keep her in his company for long. Hence, he was thinking about making her work for him continuously.

The best way to keep her was to make her his woman.

However, Mavis seemed uninterested in that. Sylvester thought she was just proud, especially since his previous investigations had not revealed any involvement with her former bosses.

Yet, today he learned that Mavis was not proud. She simply looked down on people like him.

"Boss, I'm not interested in being a mistress. And I'm not interested in destroying someone else's marriage to climb up the ladder. Please have sself-respect." As Mavis spoke, she stared down at his hand firmly.

As Sylvester spoke, his hand had wandered and was now resting directly on her thigh. Mavis had to muster all her self-control to keep herself from slapping his wandering hand.

Sylvester looked at her and withdrew his hand as though nothing had happened. His expression turned cold.

"Ms. Laviere, I value you as a talent, but if you don't want the opportunity I give you, don't blme for turning cold. You'll bear the loss of this project. Even though you're a shareholder of the company, we have to handle business affairs impartially. Do you understand what I mean?" Of course, Mavis understood. What was there not to understand? It was just about taking responsibility for the project and the company.

If it was a normal mistake that led to the loss, she would definitely take responsibility. However, for this project, even if they cooperated with the previous company, they might not secure the suburban development project.

Besides the early losses involving design and employee time, there were no other losses.

On the contrary, the company also received a sum of compensation from the other company.

"Boss, what exactly is this loss you're talking about? Do you think that if I had followed everyone's advice and we cooperated with the other construction company, we could've won this bidding project?" asked Mavis.

Sylvester was taken aback for a moment.

Mavis' sharp tongue left him unable to respond.

He also knew deep down that the probability of them securing this bidding project was low.

There were so many outstanding construction firms out there, and the ones they could collaborate with were only of average industry standards. Such companies basically had no advantage in bidding wars.

As such, there really was no loss to be talked about.

"After that company decided to cancel the contract, our company received compensation. Shouldn't this compensation be counted as part of the company's assets? Where's the loss?" Mavis continued to question. Sylvester persisted, saying, "I don't care. If it weren't for your decision to go with this company, our work could have been seen by our peers. Are you questioning the design capabilities of our company's designers? "With such an excellent proposal, our company would've had many potential clients once other people saw it. Now, that opportunity is lost. Isn't that a loss?" A smirk played on Mavis's lips.

Sylvester continued, "Instead of compensation, I'd rather have that precious opportunity." As Mavis listened to Sylvester's words, she could only secretly let out a sigh and mutter to herself, 'A man's mouth is best at speaking nonsense.' Rather not have that compensation? She remembered clearly how Sylvester could not stop smiling when they received that compensation.

Mavis replied, "Then you could've refused to receive that compensation or even sue them in court. That Way, We the company's design would still have gotten exposure." "You!" Sylvester did not expect Mavis to say such things. Mavis added, "Both you and I know the level of the company's designers. Do you think their designs are outstanding? They're just average.

"Lettell you honestly why I chose that company. It's because I thought they might cancel the contract anytime. That way, the company could still gain sincon paper.

"But one thing surprised me. They canceled the contract so late. If it had been earlier, do you think those excellent designs could still be showcased to others? "But after so many years in architectural design, I know the company's design level well. We simply can't handle those top-notch projects." "Mavis!" Sylvester's tone carried a warning.

She was looking down on the company's designers and his company! Since she looked down on them, why was she still here? She might as well go to another company! Not only did she stay, but she also held company shares! Was that not showing contempt for the company?

Mavis could guess what was on his mind, so she reminded him, "Every tI join a new company & make a point tovegotiate for a stake in it. I know I have the skills to turn a company around, so when it succeeds, the shares I hold becvaluable. "To be honest, my ownership of company shares isn't based on the company's potential. It's simply a reflection of my confidence in myself."

She had no desire to engage in a e confrontation with this man, but his m calculating behavior and relentless dredginglup of past rejections tested her patience. His persistent sense of entitlement was wearing thin on her nerves. It seemed that only by confronting him would he stop dwelling on those matters.

Slyvester's face flushed with anger at her words, turning into the color of beetroot. He wanted to cup with a retort to Mavis but found himself at a loss for words.

He even considered the idea of firing her.

However, he could not go through with it because Mavis held shares in the company.
