Revenge: Queen Of The Fashion World - 113 Underground world 1
“By the way I heard the partnership with Montgomery Business Empire.” Shawn’s face changed into a serious expression.I was curious why Shawn made that kind of face.”Yes. I just met him a while ago.” I said. “We have talked about partnership and the contract signing.”Shawn sighed. “I’m happy that at least your company can get up from what just happened. And with the partnership with Montgomery Business Empire your company will surely prosper.””Yes that’s what daddy said.” I said. “But I’m just curious.” I was deep in thought.”What is it?” Shawn became curious as well. He looked at me eagerly.”Adrian agreed with the partnership with the condition that I will be the one to work with him.” I said.”What? And why would he have a condition like that?” Shawn asked.”Yes. That’s what I thought as well.” I said. “I’m am just beginner in the business and doesn’t have much experience.””I’m not doubting your capabilities in the business industry Jill. I know more than anyone else that you are very capable to lead your company.” Shawn explained. “But thinking that Adrian Montgomery want you to work closely with him. It’s a bit fishy.”I look at Shawn. He was deep in thought after listening to what I have said. Truly he isn’t the only one thinking that there is something that isn’t right, I also think that way.”But Shawn you know that beggars cannot be choosers.” I said. I used this metaphor because as of now the company is beaten to the ground and only with partnering with Montgomery Business Empire can we come back up again.”I understand Jill. I don’t mean you have to decline his proposition. I just wish he didn’t set his eyes on you.” Shawn said.I looked at Shawn with one eyebrow raised.”I didn’t mean that I’m jealous, haha.” Shawn laughed. “Well really, I am jealous a little bit. You are now Troy’s and someone like Adrian wants to get close to you.” Shawn sighed.”Do you know something that I don’t?” I asked Shawn. I can feel that he knows something.”Jill you know about the underground world, right?” Shawn asked.I nodded. Yes, I know about the underground world. That was where the black market is and where shady businesses are made. This world are full of people with black hearts and without conscience. Every business in the light at least have some dealings in the underground world. Nothing is really that clean.”I have been deep in the underground world. But I am just a spectator and don’t do deals as much as I can help it.” Shawn started. “But I still keep in touch with the news in the underground.””When Adrian started to work in his father’s company, he has entered the underground world. There he has met many influential and strong people. He had won the hearts of such men, men who will do anything without a conscience.””Because of that his father’s company became bigger until it became an empire. And now it is still growing in big numbers. It is said that his dealing within the black market are big, especially in drugs and human trafficking. And now he is one of the big bosses in the underground world.” Shawn was making a serious face.
