The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1273

The meeting was a bit of a brawl, but surprisingly, it ended up running pretty smoothly.

Sean thought for sure they'd need at least two more meetings to settle this whopper of a contract.

After all, any concession made in the face of a big fat investment means big bucks.

But against all odds, Annie agreed to the contract when there was plenty more room for negotiation.

Sean still couldn’t believe it when all three of them inked the contract.

"It's still early. I've waited so long to finally meet Gabriella. How about we grab a quick bite?" Annie delicately placed her diamond-studded pen back into a velvet box, handed it to her assistant, then popped the question.

Wayne looked to Rosalynn for her opinion.

Rosalynn answered with a smile, "You've come a long way, Ms. Annie. We should definitely show you some hospitality."

"Great. You sort out the restaurant, I'll head back to the hotel to slip into something more comfortable, then I'll meet you guys at the restaurant."

"Sounds good," Rosalynn nodded.

Annie then took her team and left the Bane Corp Center.

Wayne's gaze never left his wife.

After Annie left, Rosalynn seemed to relax a bit.

She was initially worried that her presence might ruffle the feathers of the Rosso family’s delegation.

But it seems that at least Annie doesn’t have a beef with her.

"Secretary Tesdal, you're freakin' amazing!!"

Sean stood up and started clapping for Rosalynn.

Others joined in.

He used to think he loved her more when she was gentle, obedient, pure, and innocent.

But when he saw her shining in the crowd, making people look up to her involuntarily, Wayne realized.

How dull was the image she had pretended to be to meet his expectations.

"Enough..."

Rosalynn had no strength to resist the kiss.

She gently dodged, her arm around his neck, and asked, "Wasn't I amazing?"

Wayne smiled, kissed her flushed neck, and without any hesitation, said softly, "You're the best, I would bow down to you."

"But I have a feeling that Ms. Annie didn't go all out today," said Rosalynn, "We both know there was still room for negotiation."

"It might be because she feels that the Rosso family didn't treat you well in the past and wants to make it up to you," Wayne said coldly, "She also mentioned that you almost worked together before, but you backed off right before signing the contract."
