1323 Two-Faced
All the materials for 10% lower than the market price?
This was an unimaginably huge discount!
For example, if a 50-kilogram pack of cement cost 20 dollars, a 10% discount would amount to only 2 dollars less.
But the construction of all the Stardust Cities would require at least thousands of tons of steel, cement, bricks, and other building materials. A 10% discount for all the materials needed for the entire project could amount to at least a billion dollars!
Thus, Cheyenne became excited after hearing Dawn’s offer of a 10% discount.
“Ms. Westwood, you’re not kidding about the price, are you? Can the Fly Corporation really give us a price that is ten percent lower than the market price?” Cheyenne asked in disbelief.
Dawn smiled. “Ms. Carter, you don’t have to worry about this. The Fly Corporation is among the top 100 companies in the world, and I’m also very sincere about befriending you. Why would I joke about something like this?
“Actually, the reason why the Fly Corporation is willing to give such a huge discount is that the chairman is very optimistic about the development of the Stardust Corporation and hopes to form friendly ties with you. If there are other opportunities for cooperation in the future, we can give it a shot.
“In addition, we have a large and very mature supply chain of building materials. Despite supplying building materials to you at a price ten percent below the market price, we actually won’t lose any money. It only means that we won’t make as much profit.
“This is just a little token of sincerity from the Fly Corporation. You don’t have to worry about anything else, Ms. Carter.”
After hearing Dawn’s explanation, Cheyenne finally understood the reason. At the same time, she formed a good impression of the generous Fly Corporation.
“Ms. Westwood, thank you so much for the kind offer and sincerity. I will definitely relay this to the other executives. I will contact you to discuss the details once the company reaches a decision. What do you think?” Cheyenne asked carefully.
Although it sounded too good to be true, it was still a major project involving tens of billions of dollars. Cheyenne naturally wouldn’t take matters into her own hands and make decisions presumptuously.
No matter what, Flynn was still the general manager of the company, and she had to inform him about this.
Dawn didn’t mind it. She simply nodded and said, “Sure, no problem. I’ll wait for your news.”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
At this moment, the food they ordered was served, and the servers placed it on the table along with a pitcher of freshly squeezed watermelon juice.
After serving all the dishes, the servers left the private room, leaving space for the two ladies inside.
“Since we’re done talking about work, it’s time to set it aside and enjoy today’s food!” Dawn poured a glass of watermelon juice and placed it in front of Cheyenne.
“You’re being too polite, Ms. Westwood. Let me do it!”
Seeing that Dawn had poured her a glass of watermelon juice, Cheyenne quickly stood up to decline politely, but Dawn pressed her arm down.
“It’s okay, Ms. Carter. We’re friends now, so you don’t have to stand on ceremony with me. I just poured you some juice. It’s not a big deal. Actually, you don’t have to keep calling me Ms. Westwood. That’s too formal. How about we address each other by our first names?” Dawn said with a warm smile.
Hearing this, Cheyenne naturally couldn’t continue standing on ceremony. She nodded and said with a smile, “Alright.”
Although it was their first time meeting each other today, the meal was relaxed, and they got along really well, as if they were old friends.
Before she knew it, Cheyenne had already finished her glass of watermelon juice.
Dawn looked at the empty glass that Cheyenne had just finished drinking, and an inexplicable glimmer flashed in her eyes. She smiled even more brightly.
It was a meal between two women, and it proceeded quickly, especially since they didn’t drink alcohol. In less than an hour, they finished.
After walking out of the restaurant, Dawn said, “Cheyenne, I happen to be passing by the Stardust Corporation later, so I’ll drop you off!”
Dawn had driven the two of them over, so Cheyenne didn’t drive.
Hearing Dawn’s kind suggestion and considering the fact that the Stardust Corporation’s headquarters was nearby, Cheyenne agreed. “Okay, thank you, Dawn.”
After getting inside the car, Cheyenne smelled the faint scent of perfume inside and suddenly felt sleepy.
“Eh? Why do I suddenly feel… so… sleepy…”
Before Cheyenne could finish, she had already closed her eyes and drifted off.
“Cheyenne? Cheyenne Carter?” Dawn called out worriedly and even reached out to pat Cheyenne’s face gently, But Cheyenne had already slipped into a deep slumber and didn’t respond to her at all.
“Hah, it seems you’re just a fool with nothing but a pretty face! What qualifications do you have to be my friend?”
At this moment, the look of worry and kindness on Dawn’s face vanished. Only disgust and indifference remained on her face. She seemed to be a completely different person than she was just now.
If Cheyenne was still awake, she would probably be shocked by Dawn’s current behavior.
She was simply… two-faced!
One side of her was graceful, kind, and intellectual. But after dropping her facade, her true colors were terrifying and creepy.
Dawn glanced contemptuously at the unconscious Cheyenne.
Then she took out her phone and called someone. “Mr. Holmes, Cheyenne Carter is in my hands, and she’s inside my car now. What should I do next?”
“Bring her to the destination I told you before, and your task will be completed.”
The person on the other end was Norman, the helmsman of the Holmes!
“Yes.” After hanging up, Dawn started the car and drove away.
Of course, she definitely wasn’t going toward the Stardust Corporation.
Cheyenne probably never expected that the woman who had just had an enjoyable conversation with her like an old friend she had known for years would be someone sent by Norman Holmes!
Meanwhile, Dawn, who was rejoicing about finishing her task so easily, would never have expected that there was an inconspicuous black Mercedes-Benz following not far behind her car.
