A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 682

Chapter 682 

When only the two of them were left in the room, Mackenzie asked 

impassively, “Is there anything else, Mr. Wallace?” 

“Yes,” Ignacio hurriedly said. “Ms. Quillen, as you can see, both of us are in the 

hospitality business, and our previous collaboration went very well. It seems 

that the Terence Group is short on money when investing in the energy 

business as of late, so I’m wondering if you need some financing. I happen to 

have some money sitting idle in the bank.” 

I see what he’s up to now. Mackenzie finally realized the older man’s intention. 

The apology was merely a pretense, and he was making use of the wedding 

to approach her and talk about collaboration with her so that he could 

venture into the energy business. 

“Since you’re so sincere, I’d like to know how much money you’re going to 

invest,” Mackenzie asked calmly. 

After contending with the Lenoir family and the Verkade family, the Terence 

Group had indeed suffered some losses. However, their foundation was solid. 

Terence invested a total of 700 million into the business, forcing the Lenoir 

family out of the market and snatching all their market share back. Now, their 

market share was even higher than before the contention. 

As such, the Terence Group could either choose to get some financing to 

strengthen its position in the market or stay put to take a conservative 

approach. 

“Ms. Quillen, my wealth is no match for your family, but I’m willing to invest 

280 million.” 

What? 280 million? Mackenzie was startled. She was tempted by the figure 

Ignacio had come up with, and she was also surprised. It seemed that the 

older man had earned a lot of money by managing his hospitality business 

in Onza. 

Although the Quillens were the wealthiest family in Yeringham, Chanaea was 

a vast country. As such, there were even more powerful families than the 

Quillens in the country. As the leader of the Quillen Group, she certainly 

hoped to help the Quillen family reach a greater height. 

“Mr. Wallace, what’s your condition, then?” Mackenzie quickly pulled herself 

together and sported an impassive expression. 

“Haha. If you’re interested in the collaboration, I’d like to go about it according 

to the business norms. I hope that 280 million would be traded for your 

company’s shares so that I’d have the right to be part of the Terence Group’s 

board of directors.” Ignacio directly came up with his demand. 

That’s quite reasonable. As a woman in power, Mackenzie wouldn’t readily 

believe anyone. Her suspicion would be aroused if Ignacio’s demand was 

easy to be fulfilled. However, if his demand was unreasonable, she would turn 

him down outright. As such, the demand he had come up with was worth 

some consideration. 

“I got it, Mr. Wallace. I’ll discuss the matter with my grandpa.” Mackenzie didn’t 

directly agree to the collaboration. 

“Haha! I hope you’ll bring me some good news soon. Not only could we 

collaborate in the hospitality business, but we can also advance together in 

the energy market. I’m sure we’ll have a pleasant collaboration.” 

Upon finishing his words, Ignacio was ready to give the woman a gift. It was 

the dragon and phoenix white jade. 

“I heard you’re a fan of Mr. Cline’s work, and you have a lover. As such, I’d like 

to present this little gift to you and hope that you’ll be successful both in your 

relationship and career.” 

Then, he held out the gift for her with both hands. 

A surprised Mackenzie replied with a smile, “I’m afraid I can’t accept such an 

expensive gift, Mr. Wallace.” 

She could tell that the gift was worth over 15 million. 

“Haha. Ms. Quillen, I wouldn’t say it’s an expensive gift when the golden jade 

phoenix you’re wearing is worth 30 million. In comparison, my gift looks 

inferior. If you don’t accept this gift, I’ll be very embarrassed,” Ignacio said with 

a smile. 

Mackenzie stared at him for a moment before accepting the gift. “Thanks, Mr. 

Wallace. Please send it to my office.” 

“Haha, sure. This way please, Ms. Quillen.” 

Ignacio was excited. Since the woman was willing to take his gift, it 

suggested that he had secured the collaboration. It was every 

businessman’s dream to collaborate with the Terence Group in the energy 

business. He knew that he had seized the chance. 

After leaving the presidential suite, Mackenzie decided to put the 

collaboration aside first. She was more interested in finding out what 

Emmanuel was doing. 

Milani’s personality is terrible. I don’t want him to offer his blessings to her 

anymore.
