Chapter 374
A thought flashed through Lily’s mind. Seeing the look on his face, she wanted to tease
him. She smiled gently and said half-jokingly, “I think the store is quite interesting. Why
don’t you buy it, Mr. Russell?”
Of course, she was only joking. No matter how wealthy a businessman was, he needed to
plan before making any moves. It was not like buying clothes where one could buy
whatever they fancied.
However, she had forgotten that Alexander was not an ordinary person. To him, buying
such a store was not like buying clothes. It was as simple as buying a cup of coffee or a
bun.
Thus, he replied, “Okay."
Lily was taken aback. “What?!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘Hahaha.’ Alexander laughed to himself.
“B-But..." Lily looked at Alexander's expression and realized that he was not joking. She quickly
changed her words and said, “I was joking. Please don’t take it seriously. You should think carefully
before deciding to buy a store."
“There’s no need to think further. If you’re okay with it, it’s good enough.” Alexander barely even
blinked as he said this. It was as though any hesitation was a waste of time.
‘What did he mean by “okay?" I was just joking1.’
Lily was about to dissuade him when she caught sight of Louis. She recalled that they had made an
appointment in advance. Could it be that they had planned this long ago? Right now, were they
pretending to go along with her words instead?
"You had long planned to buy this store, hadn’t you?” Lily asked Alexander after some thought.
Alexander shook his head. No. I was planning to invest and buy some shares, but if you likeit, I can
buy out the whole store.” He looked at Louis and asked, “That’s okay with you, right?"
Louis nodded enthusiastically. “Not a problem! Of course, it’s okay! As long you’re willing to
cooperate with the Corden Group, there’s no problem if you wish to buy this store, Mr. Russell. We
own many more stores similar to this. If you wish, please feel free to choose a few more, Mr.
Russell.”
Lily was speechless.
It seemed like she was overthinking it. Maybe there were not as many things that needed
consideration when doing business as she had thought.
“You can buy the store if you wish, but as I said earlier, imitation and similar products will soon
become popular. Even if the craftsmanship isn’t as good as the original, they will surely steal a lot of
business. Are you sure that you want to invest in this business now?” Lily looked at Alexander
curiously.
He looked down and smiled. “What’s wrong? Are you worried I'll go bankrupt and have no money
to support you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was discussing the store's future with him, and he wanted to fool around with her instead.
“If that happens, I’ll need to rely on you,” Alexander said in a half truth.
Lily was puzzled and frowned.
Alexander smiled meaningfully but did not elaborate on his words. He put away his
teasing look and said to Louis in all seriousness, “ Let’s go with that decision. We can
arrange for a meeting later to
sign the contract.”
"Okay. Our company’s president looks forward to cooperating with you, Mr. Russell."
Louis was over the moon.
‘Louis Corden, Mike Corden,'and the Corden Group? This is entirely a family
business! ’
“By the way, this lovely lady is?" Louis asked after their discussion ended as he
looked at Lily curiously.
