“I don’t think that’s appropriate.” Janice was taken by shock.
“It’s fine. Just tell him to stay quiet once the client arrives,” Ava said casually.
There was another reason behind her approval in letting Leon into the meeting room with them. According to what
Ava knew, the person they were about to meet had a reputation of harassing females. If Leon came into the room
with them, it might stop the client from doing anything inappropriate.
“Sure. Thank you, Miss Addice.” Janice was overjoyed. She did not want Leon to wait alone outside and what Ava
said helped resolve that perfectly.

Over half an hour went by and though it was long past the agreed time, the client did not appear.
“Why isn’t the client here yet?” Ava glanced at her watch impatiently and called the client to check on them.
However, the client merely asked her to wait a while longer without a proper explanation.
“Damn it!” After the call, Ava’s expression darkened. However, she was helpless as their company needed this
client and even if the client was late, she could not leave and could only wait patiently.
“Janice, who’s this client? They sure are quite arrogant,” Leon asked confusedly.
“Oh, it’s the vice–director from the Westpraise Group,” Janice explained.
“Westpraise Group?” Leon paused for a moment as he felt like he heard the name before. He searched his

Westpraise Group, Wick Group and Uniqpeace Enterprises were the three major distributors in Springfield City that
controlled over eighty percent of the retailers, so most firms would need to sell their products through either one of
these companies.
Back when Leon was working for Elegante Group, they worked with Westpraise Group at the beginning.
However, a more ambitious chairman took over the operation a few months ago and insisted that Elegante Group
surrender ten percent of the overall profit.
Iris was troubled for days until Leon reached out to Wick Group on her behalf to resolve the crisis for Elegante
Group, which also ended the partnership between Elegante Group and Westpraise Group.
“Janice, your company is going to work with Westpraise Group?” Leon asked.
“Yeah. They’ve been our client for a while and we’ve worked with them for a long time,” Janice nodded, before

Ever since the new chairman took over, the Acme Corp faced the same crisis as Elegante Group had before.
Seeing how the existing contract was about to expire, the Westpraise Group forcefully requested for ten percent of
the total profit on top of the previous agreement.
Ava and Janice represented their company to negotiate and see if they could lower it to five percent to minimize
the company’s loss.
“According to what I know, the Wick Group is the biggest distributor in Springfield City that controls over forty
percent of sales channels.“
