Chapter 1018 Shivering With Cold
Chapter 1018 Shivering With Cold
When there were difficulties in the future, Sydney decided to turn to Julien for help and then help him in her own way.
Only mutual help would not let her have any psychological burden.
Luke finally felt completely relieved.
At this time, Sydney picked up the wine glass and looked at Chaim, "Mr. Houston, please approve my loan application before tomorrow. Skylight Corporation needs this loan now."
With that, she held out her glass towards him with a smile.
Chaim also smiled, picked up his wine glass, and clinked her glass, "Don't worry. I will tell them to go through the process quickly, and you will see the loan before nine o'clock tonight at the latest."
"That would be great. Thank you, Mr. Houston," Sydney was excited and grateful. She bent down to pick up a gift box from the ground and handed it to Chaim with both hands, "Mr. Houston, this is a little gift. Thank you for your help. Please accept it."
Before she came to see Chaim, she found out that Chaim's biggest hobby was collecting antiques.
Therefore, she specially brought an antique vase as a gift for Chaim.
After all, it was impolite to ask someone for help without any gifts.
Moreover, a desirable gift might make Chaim approve her loan application if he was reluctant.
Even if Chaim still refused her, he might give her some useful advice when he saw the gift.
In short, giving Chaim a gift was necessary, and it was a right choice, and Chaim would have a good impression on her. Even if she didn’t get the loan this time, next time Chaim would be willing
to talk to her about other cooperation because of the desirable gift.
Anyway, gift-giving was not only a strategy helping to achieve a certain purpose but also a necessary custom before cooperation.
Chaim was not too surprised to see the gift box handed over by Sydney.
After all, he had seen this gift box when Sydney walked in, and he knew perfectly that it was for him.
Therefore, he did not refuse but took it with a smile.
If he didn’t agree to lend money to Sydney, he couldn’t accept this gift, but now he had agreed, then he would naturally accept it without psychological burden. Besides, his act of accepting the gift was also to reassure her that he had agreed and would not go back on it.
Sure enough, Sydney breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Chaim had accepted the gift.
Chaim put the gift box on the table and opened it. When he saw the antique vase inside the gift box, his eyes immediately lit up, "Ms. Raines, is this vase more than five hundred years old?"
"Yes, it is," Sydney beamed at him and nodded.
Chaim smiled widely and could not help but touch the vase gently. He looked at it carefully and praised it, "It’s really good. You actually have such a treasure."
Sydney drank the red wine calmly and replied with a smile, "My grandfather is an archaeologist. He got it as a reward, and later my grandfather gave it to me as a birthday present. I know you like antiques, so I bring this vase to you. This vase is just made by an ordinary craftsman, so it may not be worth much, but the number of vases with the same pattern and the same age is not large, so it can be side it’s somewhat rare. I hope you like it."
This vase was probably worth tens of thousands of dollars, which was really nothing compared to other expensive antiques.
However, due to its rarity, it was still of great collectible value.
"Of course I like it," Chaim hurriedly said, "I have collected a lot of antiques, but I don't have a vase like this. Now you give me one, which eliminates one of my regrets. I'm happy to see this vase. I really like it. Ms. Raines, it's a birthday present from your grandfather. Is it all right that you give it to me?"
Luke also looked at Sydney.
Actually, when he was in the car, he asked her what the gift was for Chaim, but she didn't answer, so he had been curious.
Now he finally knew the answer.
After hearing Chaim's words, Sydney still smiled softly, "Mr. Houston, Don't worry. It’s all right. My grandfather has made a great effort to help me inherit Skylight Corporation. Now I give this vase to you for the development of Skylight Corporation. I believe that my grandfather will support me."
“In that case, I'll take this vase. Thank you, Ms. Raines," Chaim fondled the vase lovingly.
Sydney nodded, "I’m glad you like it."
Then Chaim kept staring at the vase with joy.
Meanwhile, Sydney and Luke were discussing how to perfectly solve the consequences of missing parts after getting the loan.
After all, they had to make the best plan to use the money properly.
If they didn’t have any plan, some money would be wasted.
Their conversation lasted at least three hours before it was over.
When Sydney and Luke said goodbye to Chaim and walked out of the private box, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
After paying the bill, Sydney waited for the driver to drive her car out of the parking lot with Luke at the gate of the hotel.
Luke and she both had drunk wine, so they couldn’t drive and had no choice but let a driver arranged by the hotel to drive them back. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew. "Achoo," Sydney could not help sneezing.
Luke turned to look at her and realized she sneezed because of coldness. He hurriedly unfastened his coat and draped it on her shoulders.
At the same time, Sydney was rubbing her hands with her head down, trying to warm up her cold hands. Suddenly, she felt something warm on her back, so she subconsciously turned her head. What she saw was a gaudy suit coat and Luke's hands.
"What are you doing?" Sydney looked at him.
Luke put his hands in front of his mouth and breathed on them, "Aren't you cold? Put on my coat, and you won't be cold."
Seeing that he also felt cold and shivered, Sydney hurriedly took his coat off and threw it to him, "Don't give it to me. I don't need it. You wear less than me. I'm cold, but I'm not shivering. Look at you. You are only wearing a shirt. You'd better put your coat back on quickly. What if you catch a cold later?"
"No, I'm a man! I'm not afraid... Achoo!" Before Luke finished speaking, he had a sneeze.
Then he turned speechless.
