RedNovelChapter 1050 Aspen was absolutely stunned.
All Andrew did was throw out a few bold, borderline-offensive remarks, and Derek rewarded him for it.
She started to question whether she was dreaming.
since when did the world start handing out favors for calling people fake? Christina's face turned a shade darker as she exchanged a look with Quinton.
He gritted his teeth and muttered, "Don't rush.
Let's just wait and see.
Mr.
McCormick's decision isn't something we can challenge outright.
Damn it...
this kid really stumbled into the jackpot." Andrew straightened his suit jacket at the center of it all and stood up with a bright, unbothered grin.
"Well then, thank you, Mr.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMcCormick, for the trust.
In that case, SuprCapital Group is honored to accept the offer!" He added, "Don't worrywe'll make sure the job gets done right." Before Derek could respond, one of the old family heads shot up from his seat, clearly displeased.
"Mr.
McCormick, with all due respect, I really don't understand why you'd assign such an important project to an entirely new company.
"As far as I know, SuprCapital Group has no real history in the capital.
We've never even heard of them before today.
Handing a ---- high-level government project to them feels like a slap in the face to every seasoned business here." Quinton seized the opportunity and added more fuel to the fire.
Exactly, Mr.
McCormick.
While I know your decisions are always sound, I have to sayneither their qualifications nor their track record add up.
By any measure, I don't think they're suited for this role." A few others chimed in as well.
"Sir, the donations at this charity event were meant to showcase each group's capability.
This SuprCapital Group is just a tiny firm.
Every other company in this room is more qualified." Derek gave them a cool look.
"You're all trying to make this about how much each company donated, right?" No one responded, but the answer was clearthey were.
To them, SuprCapital Group was nothing more than a flashy startup.
The idea of it standing shoulder to shoulder with the old powerhouses felt ridiculous.
Quinton chuckled dryly.
"Governor, I think you're joking.
Donations cfrom the heart.
Take our family, for instancewe only donated 20 million.
Not a huge amount, sure.
"But strictly speaking, we still donated more than SuprCapital Group could ever dream of.
So if we're talking capability and loyalty, I think we've proven our worth." Derek's smile thinned. "Alright then.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince you're all making this ---- about numbers, letbe direct.
SuprCapital Group donated 50 millionmore than any of you so-called established players in the capital." The room went dead quiet when they heard the amount. They could not fathom the possibility that SuprCapital Group had that kind of money.
Derek went on, "To be honest, I didn't want to base my decision on money.
Talking about donations makes this feel transactional, and Thate that.
But since Mr.
Wright and a few others insisted on using that as a benchmark, I figured I'd give you a clear answer so no one questions the decision." Quinton slammed his fist on the armrest, his whole body tense with rage. He had personally instructed Christina to donate 20 million.
At the time, he thought it was a bold movea clear advantage.
He never imagined SuprCapital Group would outbid him, and win Derek's favor.
He had miscalculated big time.
The others were left speechless too.
SuprCapital Group had just pulled off the unthinkable.
They showed up out of nowhere, made one move, and instantly m becthe focus of the entire capital. With Derek's backing, their future looked unstoppable.
