Chapter 145: WHEN YOU GET A WHOLE JAR, WHY BE CONTENT WITH ONLY A SCOOP
Dove stared at them, while Philip was done telling his part, and anxiously waited for Dove to say something back. After all, it was important! He couldn’t imagine what would happen if she did not agree to him, and used those information and released it.
But her face? She did not give out anything that was going on in her mind.
The room was filled with silence following what Philip just said. After all, it did not require rocket science to understand what he was implying by saying that, he was ready to compromise anything for Dove’s sake to shake hands back.
And it directly translated to that, he was ready to make any transaction that Dove wished given that, she doesn’t release the information.
Philip gulped, as he waited for Dove to open her mouth and speak something instead of just staring at him.
But well, what could he possibly do more? He could just simply wait patiently, despite the situation made his blood pressure rose drastically.
Meanwhile in his heart, Philip desperately hoped and was a little convinced too that Dove would agree to what he had offered. After all, coming to think about it, Dove did not really have any major use of those pieces of informations.
That can only harm Davis Enterprise, but won’t bring any good to Sterling Corporations. And as business people, one factor that was common between them was that, they did not get involve with business situations like these, without considering their own profits.
And Dove must have also kept all those for the same reason, that is to use it to her advantage when the time was right. So, the situation was perfect, if she asked something in return for her to not release this information to the public.
But the real question is, what would she ask for?!!
At this thought, Philip and his family seethed in anger in their hearts. Only if he too had collected some dirt against the Sterling Corporations, than he would also have something to counter her back with right now.
And apparently, they thought they had! They had always thought, that the fact that Dove cheating on Roan was a big deal. While, they did not give it much thought that Dove herself had proofs about Roan cheating on her first. But they cared less and less about it with each passing day, almost coming to their own delusion that they were doing some kind of favour on her by not talking about it.
After all, it was always a fact in the society’s book of double standards that, a woman is always shamed for the slightest of something that a man may be habituated with.
But right now, could they use it against her? No. Because she already has a son now, and she has very boldly accepted everything in the public and press, almost changing everyone’s narrative around her.
And they did not even have the time to try and dig up something about them anymore.
After a short while, but what seemed like eternity, they all heard Dove chuckle lightly, before she put a leg on another and hummed, "Now, coming to think about it, you seem right, Mr Philip. I must indeed do this." Dove said with a smile.
And hearing her say that, Philip’s eyes widened ever so slightly, before they twinkled. He knew it! He knew it would work! And he smiled back at her smugly.
Dove looked at his face, with that smile still present, and she did not comment on it. Of course, that had been her plan all along.
Or else, what was she going to do those. It was not like she has a role to play of being the business industry’s superhero, that she would now go providing justice to what wrong had happened years ago.
Moreover, this industry was a dog eat dog world. No one of none’s here. You have to save your own back from predators like Davis’ Enterprises. But that did not justify Philip too. What he did was unethical.
Dove had kept these information with her, and had decided to use here because she was sure that after the cancellation order that she has passed, the Davis’ were not letting her go so easily.
They were definitely going to do something that was going to harm Sterling Corporations. And she had initially just planned to use it against them.
But then it was Dante who had given her the idea that when she could use it to get a whole jar of jam, why he content with only a scoop of it!
And at this thought, Dove for once glanced at Dante who was standing behind her. When their eyes met, they instantly understood what was going on in each other’s mind, and they chuckled in their heart, before averting their gazes again.
Dante here, with all his heart’s content was admiring Dove.
Truth to be told, seeing Philip beg Dove, he felt immense satisfaction that may be, Dove herself too did not get. Hah! They dared to bully his woman? Just wait and see!
Dove on the other hand smiled at the Davis’, whose eyes were shining at this point, they initial fear had dissipated. And she said, "Coming to think about it, I think Mr Philip is right, what am I to do with this information, right? It is better if we... Compromise?"
And hearing this, Philip and Noah’s eyes lit, and they smiled gleely. Cara, wouldn’t say that she got everything that she had planned before coming here, but seeing that the situation was being redeemed, she sighed in relief.
"Why are you standing up, please have a sit." Dove signaled with her hand asking them to sit back down.
And seeing that, Dove was now being polite again, they thought that now they had every thing under control again.
Meanwhile, Senior Sterling stared at Dove, some things going on in his mind about this whole scenario. And after a while, a subtle smile appeared on his lips.
Noah too looked at everything happening. It was shocking considering how Dove had been avoiding Davis’ all this while, to being so polite over a bargain?
Something was up.
