Chapter 146
“Women could be sensitive and possessive. Ms. Lynch should be no exception.”
But that was then. Gilda, who used to be so intolerant of Jensen, now… seemed to have changed.
Jensen took a deep breath, and all his emotions disappeared as if the earlier vulnerable Jensen was just a figment of his imagination..
“Let’s go, Lanny.”
With that, he walked away.
Back at Glory Corporation, Gilda hadn’t even settled in when an unexpected visitor arrived.
Steven had already gotten wind of the news.
The collaboration between Glory Corporation and Universe Blade Group had fallen through.
In high spirits, he couldn’t resist dropping by Gilda’s office.
“Ms. Lynch, It’s been a while. You look a bit worn out. I suppose work has been keeping you busy.”
His composure was as if he was giving a Greek gift.
Gilda didn’t even lift her head and remarked, “Mr. Sanders, it seems like you have a lot of free time to wander over here.”
Steven, with a half–smile, walked over to the desk, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
“Young lady, patience is a virtue! Achieving these results takes time. It’s a bit of a shame to lose the Universe Blade Group deal. Gilda stopped what she was doing.
After closing the file, she slowly raised her head and met his gaze confidently. “Mr. Sanders, you seem well- informed, but perhaps he’s celebrating a bit too early.”
Steven burst into laughter,
“Ms. Lynch, you’re right. We still have a year before our deadline. I’m just here out of concern for you and the company.
“Achieving a 30% increase in performance is not that simple. It’s natural to encounter some setbacks. I’m just here to remind you.
There was a hint of smugness in his tone.
After speaking, Steven stood up, adjusted his suit jacket, and said, “Young lady, gaining more experience is

a good thing. As the saying goes, every setback is a stepping stone to success. I believe this experience will help Ms. Lynch progress, which is also good news for our entire Glory Corporation.”
As he finished speaking, there was a knock on the office door.
Then Eric walked in. He glanced at Steven and then turned to Gilda. “Ms. Lynch. Mr. Lee from Universe Blade Group just sent me a new contract. To express their apologies, they’ve added a clause offering a 5% share of the profits to Glory Corporation.”
Steven’s initially smiling face immediately turned serious.
This turn of events was completely unexpected. Steven thought, “Wasn’t Universe Blade Group refusing to cooperate with Glory Corporation? Why would they suddenly offer a 5% share of the profits?
“What is going on?”
Upon hearing this, Gilda couldn’t help but smile. She hadn’t expected Derick to be so accommodating.
He truly was a skilled businessman.
With a slight raise of her eyebrows, she looked at Steven and said lightly, “I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you, Mr. Sanders. I’ve secured the cooperation with Universe Blade Group.”
Steven looked frustrated.
But he couldn’t show it in front of Gilda. He could only swallow his anger and force a smile. “Ms. Lynch, you’ve handled this admirably. I admire your skills.”
After finishing, Steven slammed the door as he left.
Watching his angry departure, Gilda couldn’t help but suppress a smile. She looked at Eric and asked in an uncertain tone, “Is this really Universe Blade Group’s decision?”
