part.
She read the remaining documents quietly and suddenly stopped at a page.
Vanke Group.
“Isn’t Vanke Group Quentin Emerson’s company? They’re already working with Dreamcatchers. Why do you have their information here?”
Xander was driving. When he heard her question, he replied, “Vanke and Dreamcatchers haven’t really confirmed their partnership. Quentin Emerson has only gotten in touch with them, but nothing has been signed.”
Melanie gave this some thought. “Are you planning to get this project taken away from him?”
She was not stupid enough to think that he was planning to work with Quentin Emerson. There were plenty of employees in one company, and he was not the only manager working
there.
There was a glint in Xander’s dark eyes. He drove with one hand on the steering wheel and parked smoothly into an empty lot. His voice was casual and relaxed. “We’re just looking to work together with someone. There’s nothing being taken away from anybody.”
Melanie immediately knew what he meant.
She was even more surprised to see that the person Xander had made an appointment with was another manager working at Vanke. His name was Colin Jennings.
Colin looked about 40. He was not tall but seemed to be friendly.
He greeted Xander and Melanie with a smile. They chatted for a while before getting right into the topic.
“It’s our honor that you’d think of us, Mr. Solomon, but we currently have another manager looking into this. It’ll be a little difficult to move forward with anything when we’ve already come to an agreement with Dreamcatchers.”
Xander’s expression remained calm as this was an answer he had expected. He turned to look at Melanie instead.
She smiled and said softly, “I believe you know why we’re here to see you, Mr. Jennings.”
“Vanke may be a new company, but you have solid and strong backers, which is why you’re developing rapidly. We’ve also heard that Vanke will be promoting a general manager internally.
“You might also be aware that I used to work with LeapCo. I know a thing or two about situations like this.”
Colin immediately understood what Melanie meant.
He asked hesitantly, “Are you planning to get me to go against Mr. Emerson and Dreamcatchers?”
There was a look of determination in Melanie’s pretty eyes. She asked in a low voice, “Aren’t you interested, Mr. Jennings?”
“But…” Colin was still hesitant. Melanie did not say anything more. Instead, she placed the documents detailing the comparison between both companies in front of him. “You can take some time to consider this.”
“Even if I agree to this, it won’t be easy…” Colin shook his head with slight regret.
