But this was also definitely to Eleanor's credit. She was a skilled negotiator.
"But they'd like to meet you," Eleanor said.
"No problem. We'll meet them. It'll be an opportunity to understand them better. I still want to visit their factory to avoid what happened with Yorksen. I'll feel more at ease after seeing their production base." I looked at Eleanor and said, "Quality must be ensured." "Can we do it tonight? Their representative has invited their boss over to ensure a smooth discussion with us." Eleanor added, "They didn't expect us to take the initiative to contact them." "Tonight?" I hesitated.
When Eleanor saw my hesitation, she quickly asked, "Do you have other plans?" "I do, but it's not that important. If it has to be tonight, can we push it back a bit?" I tried to think of a solution.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis time, Eleanor hesitated. I quickly suggested, "Why don't we try to schedule the meeting for 6 o'clock, preferably 7? I'll send Ryan to meet them first, and I'll deal with my classmate before joining you later." "That works." Eleanor nodded.
"Please make my excuses. I won't be too long. My classmate's the one who's been waiting in the lobby for me. She's been botheringfor a few days, and I don't want to embarrass her too much. But it's really just a trivial matter." I looked helpless. "We can't delay our important business." "Alright, I'll explain it to them. I'm just worried they might feel disrespected if we ask them to wait. They've call the way to Foswood, after all," Eleanor explained.
"No problem. Once you confirm the location, letknow immediately. I'll see if I can make it a little earlier," I reassured Eleanor.
She understood, nodded, and went off to handle her business.
I flipped through my phone and found Michelle's number. After a moment of hesitation, I put my phone down again.
I pressed the inteand called Carol in. "Keep an eye on the lobby, Carol. See if Michelle is here today. If she's not, give her a call and cancel the dinner tonight. We have svery important out-of-town guests, and I need to reschedule the dinner with her.
"If she insists on having dinner today, reschedule it for 5 sharp. Explain thatonly hour, and I need to leave by 8." I deliberately set it up this way to show Michelle srespect and shorten our meeting time.
I thought I knew what kind of person her so-called boyfriend was.
I gave Michelle's phone number to vedCarol. As she turned to leave, I suddenly remembered Grayson's call tolast night and quickly stopped her. "Carol, wait." She immediately turned back, and I quietly told her to keep an eye on Adelaide.
She looked atskeptically. "Is there a problem?" I just whispered, "Something seems off. Be careful." She nodded immediately and left.
Everything unfolded as I anticipated.

Sure enough, Michelle didn't want to give up the opportunity to meettoday, but compromised by changing the dinner to 5 o'clock. When Carol reported that to me, she
had a look of disdain on her face. "She really wouldn't give up. She wanted to call you, saying she m e wouldn't cancer no matter what. I told her you were in a meeting, so she had no choice but to agree to 5 oelock." "Did you tell her I only have an hour?" I questioned Carol.
"I made that very clear to her," Carol affirmed confidently. "Alright then." At 5 o'clock, I arrived at the hotel Michelle had chosen.
It wasn't far from my meeting place with Eleanor later.
She confirmed that location after m askingabout it, which would make e it convenient forto go over.
After parking the car, I grabbed my bag and walked inside determinedly.
