Chapter 0558 Miranda was genuinely happy for Jack. "Okay. I'll go ahead and order." "Great!" Despite that, she only ordered two meat dishes, one vegetable, and a soup.

Jack raised an eyebrow. "Is that it?" "Yes. That's it." "Wait. You need to add two more dishes," he insisted.

"It's enough. We won't be able to finish it. Jack, are you determined to be the one who gets taken advantage of today?" Miranda teased him about his generosity.

He chuckled. "I don't mind being taken advantage of by you now and then." "I'm serious. Let's not waste food." "Fine. I'll listen to you." Then, Jack ordered two cans of beer.

Soon, the dishes arrived, and they chatted as they ate.

"How's college going? Are you settling in okay? Did you save my number? If you need anything, just givea call." Since they lived away from family, he felt they needed to support and look out for each other.

"It's alright. I've run into a few issues, but I can handle them myself,” Miranda said.

"That's good to hear. Enjoy your food," Jack encouraged with a smile.

Midway through their meal, his phone buzzed. He glanced at the screen and said, “Mimi, go ahead and eat. I'll take this call outside." "Sure." Five minutes later, Jack returned and sat across from her again.

Miranda immediately sensed something was off. "Jack eat your food." He looked dazed for a moment before nodding. "Oh! Right!" He tried to maintain a smile, but it seemed forced.

Miranda put down her fork and knife. "What's wrong?" At her words, his eyes turned red. "Honestly, I just don't get these clients. We had everything nailed down and contracts signed. Plus, we put so much tand effort into it. So, why do they suddenly change their minds? "Don't they understand what a contract means? Don't they respect the hard work others put into this? "Maybe it's my fault. I haven't adjusted to the harsh competition and don't fully understand the market." His righteous anger slowly faded into sheer frustration.

Miranda said, "If they broke the contract, That's a pretty good deal, right?" u can definitely claim damages without doing any work.

Chapter 155|| +25 FONUS Jack looked confused. "What?"

She explained, "You mentioned that you signed a contract. Does it include any clauses about penalties form breach of contract? If it does, you could sue for damages. Usually, cases like that are straightforward, and the other party can't just back out,

"Of course, you don't always have to go to court. If they see you're serious and a little little intimidating, they'll usually opt for a settlement outside of court. Then you can negotiate the amount for the damages."

She gained this knowledge while starting a business with Hansel In addition to managing contracts, shet also served as a project manager and negotiation specialist. Jack scratched his head awkwardly. "Uh... the contract doesn't have any clauses about breaches." Miranda raised an eyebrow in surprise.

He couldn't blthe client for changing their minds. With no cost involved, they could act without hesitation since they wouldn't face any penalties.

"Mimi, how do you know so much about this?" "Um...it's basic knowledge when starting a company, right?" She swore she meant no offense or sarcasm.

Jack was momentarily speechless and felt defeated.
