Chapter 694

“Cherry, I’m trusting you, so I’ll agree to this unreasonable demand. But if you dare to deceive me, you know what the consequences will be p>

At this point, he really didn’t have any other options.

Besides, Cherry had a short temper. If he started a fight with her now and she held a grudge and refused to work with him, where else would he find someone who could get close to Hannah?

Hannah only had Samuel around her now, and Samuel would never cooperate with him.

Going to him would be a waste of time and would only get reported back to Hannah.

Hearing Lionel’s continued mistrust and commanding tone, Cherry couldn’t help but laugh.

“Lionel, I’m telling you for the last time. If you insist on speaking to me in that tone, then I don’t think we need to cooperate anymore p>

She had warned him several times about his terrible, problematic attitude. Each time, Lionel seemed to listen, only to forget immediately after.

Whenever something important came up, Lionel would revert to that same commanding tone. The man was just incapable of learning his lesson.

“You know what, Lionel? I’ve changed my mind. I’m not telling you the time or place, and I don’t want your damn resource. This is supposed to be a partnership, but your attitude makes me feel like I work for you. Let’s just end our cooperation p>

Cherry hung up the phone and looked at Samuel, who was sitting across from her.

He was staring at her with a bewildered expression, clearly not understanding why she had suddenly done that.

“Samuel, oh, Samuel. You should really spend some time learning from me. Look at you, someone offers you a few scraps, and youte ready to jump at the chance to work with them. You need to hold the power in the relationship, you understand p>

Cherry saw her phone light up again, immediately silenced it, and pushed it aside.

She paid it no more mind and continued speaking to Samuel.

“With an attitude like Lionel’s, he’s lucky I was willing to work with him at all. But he’s like some kind of idiot, always ordering.

should why

continue to cooperate with someone like that?” ‘

Samuel thought for a few seconds before her meaning finally dawned on him.

Seeing his look of realization, Cherry nodded in satisfaction.

“Good, good. It looks like you’re starting to understand my brilliant strategy p>

“I think I get what you mean, but I’m just wondering… aren’t you afraid he’ll get angry and really refuse to work with you anymore? Wouldn’t that be like shooting yourself in the foot p>

Samuel asked, still feeling a little uneasy. Cherry’s tone had been quite harsh.

And Lionel had always been so arrogant. If his temper flared and he really decided to cut ties with Cherry, they would lose their only channel for getting information from him.

Hannah, who had been quiet the whole time suddenly spoke up. “That’s why you’re too timid and dont think boldly enough. Lionel has no one left to help him. If he wants information about me, Cherry is his only option p>
