Chapter 163 Big Fat Liar
Jeffrey turned tail and ran out of Raymond’s office.
He returned to his office in a poor mood. When he spied Hilda still waiting for him, a sly thought crossed
his mind.
Jeffrey’s furious expression, however, scared the wits out of Hilda.
He approached her and asked, “Have you given my proposal any thought? I’m telling you, as long as you
agree to my request, I swear that we’ll sign a deal with your company.”
Jeffrey was taking advantage of his knowledge of the situation, since he knew that Sentiment Chemical
Limited had secured the deal.
Hilda pleaded, “Jeffrey, c-could you ask for something else instead?”
Scoffing, Jeffrey replied, “Ask for something else? Do you have any idea how much that contract is
worth? You’d be able to swim in the commission gained from securing such a contract. You could even
buy a house with that money! It’s not unreasonable for you to spend a night with me in exchange for
such riches, is it? If I had that sort of money, I’d be sleeping my way through the country!”

Jeffrey’s desire for her.
Eventually, she conceded with a nod. “F-Fine, I agree to your requests. But only after the contract is
properly signed!”
“Of course. We’ll sign the contract first.” He smirked cruelly and continued, “I’ll book a room for tonight.
Just wait for my call. Be ready to put on a show.”
Utterly disgusted, Hilda whirled around and fled his office.
She had barely left Jeffrey’s office when she ran into Jared, who was descending a flight of stairs nearby.
“Jared.”
Hilda had no idea Jared would arrive at Cosmic Chemical so soon.
Her appearance surprised him, and he asked, “Hilda, what are you doing here?”
I told her that she didn’t have to come. I can’t believe she sneaked out here alone!
“I came to ask an ex-classmate for help. I thought it would be beneficial to your negotiation,” she
explained. Spying the contract in Jared’s hands, she stammered in surprise, “Jared, d-did you already
sign the contract?”
“Yes, I did.”
With that, he handed the contract to Hilda.
She perused the contract with a deep frown.
I secured Jeffrey’s help mere seconds ago. How could Jared sign the contract before that?
Meanwhile, Raymond had come down the stairs behind Jared. He seemed shocked to see Hilda and
asked, “Mr. Chance, who’s this?”
After all, he had been privy to Jared and Josephine’s relationship since Walter’s banquet. They were not
shy about showing their affection for one another in public.
“She’s like my younger sister,” Jared introduced with a smile.
He then turned to Hilda and explained, “Hilda, this is Mr. Green, the head of Cosmic Chemical. I signed
the contract with him earlier.”
“It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Green. My name is Hilda Wallace.” She extended her hand out and shook
hands with Raymond.

curiously.
Nodding, Hilda explained, “Yes. His name is Jeffrey Leigh, and he’s an office administrator in your
company.”
“Him?” Jared scrunched his brows immediately.
“Do you know him?” His response perplexed Hilda.
Jared replied, “That same Jeffrey was trying his best to prevent us from signing a deal with Cosmic
Chemical just minutes ago!”
His explanation had Hilda’s anger soaring through the roof. Jeffrey was lying to me this whole time! I
can’t believe I stupidly agreed to his disgusting requests! Urgh, I’m so mad that I’m going to kill him!
As luck would have it, Jeffrey walked out of his office then. When he saw Hilda standing with Jared and
Raymond, he instinctively sensed that he was in trouble. Without further ado, he immediately ran for the
exit.
“Jeffrey, you b*stard! How dare you lie to me!”
Hilda gave chase immediately, yelling profanities at him with all her might.
