Chapter 668: She turned the phone slightly for Ethan to see.
Ethan gave it a passing glance before shifting his gaze elsewhere. There was no denying it—his own construction firm had thrown its hat in the ring. But the competition this twas fierce, and even his team wasn't entirely confident they could secure the project. An offer like this, handed to him without a fight, was rare.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut Ethan wasn't one to bend his values. "I don't need you to hand the project to me." He believed he could win the project on his own, fair and square. His gaze remained hard. "Rosie, Brenna and I nearly lost our lives on that ship in Plieca. And you think this would just fix everything? Your apology doesn't coff as sincere." Maxley didn't understand the Vanland language they were speaking. But he picked up on Ethan's foul mood right away and sensed his disinterest in the proposal. Turning to Rosie, he asked, "What's happening?" Rosie felt a bit awkward. Ethan hadn't changed a bit—still stubborn, still leaving no room for compromise. "It's nothing. Mr. Mitchell just didn't find the terms acceptable. We'll keep negotiating,” she said to Maxley.
After wrapping up his exchange with Maxley, Rosie turned her focus back to Ethan. "Ethan, you know this project will bring in massive returns. And I'm well aware your company's already in the running. Since you want the project, just accept my offer. Show a little grace and let the past go. We could have more chances to work together down the line." Ethan's reply csharp and bitter. "Oh, you mean more chances for you to try and havekilled? No, thanks." Rosie's temper flared. Ethan was harsher to her than ever, and it grated on her nerves.
Rosie caught the look on Brenna's face-distant, unreadable, as if nothing around her was worth the time. She didn't take her seriously at all.
Just then, an idea popped into Rosie's mind. Maybe Brenna held the key. If she could get Brenna on her side, maybe Ethan would accept her offer.

"I'm not interested. I've got my own contracts to deliver. I don't have tfor side deals." Brenna didn't hesitate to turn Rosie down. She knew Rosie was just trying to use her. Considering Rosie's habit of nursing grudges, she knew there was no way Rosie would simply overlook everything the Harper family had done to her.
"You two are unbelievable, turning down that kind of money. Think it through. If someone else takes the deal, you'll be missing out on billions," Rosie said with a faint smile.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOne look at Ethan was enough—Maxley could tell the deal wasn't going anywhere.
"Mr. Mitchell, would you consider the partnership?” he asked, raising a glass toward Ethan and Brenna.
As he lifted the drink toward them, no one noticed the slight movement of his hand. He slipped something into the glass.
Greta had no place in Ethan and the Prince's private conversation. She appeared to be casually snacking alongside her colleagues, but her eyes remained fixed on Ethan. She didn't have the nerve to stare directly, so she held up her phone, the rotatable camera tilted just enough to catch Ethan in the frame.
