My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke)
Chapter 578

Chapter 578

Adina leaned back in her chair and nonchalantly said, "Maybe they're delivering money to me. Let them in."

She had been feeling gloomy recently. Earning some money could give her a temporary sense of happiness.

Zhenny and Jasmine soon walked into the meeting room in succession. After Serene served them coffee, she sat beside Adina.

Adina put on a fake smile. "Mdm. Jones, Ms. Yackley, may know the purpose of your visit?"

Jasmine scoffed before she looked to the side as if she was full of dissatisfaction.

"First of all, congratulations on getting married." Zhenny drank some coffee before she resumed indifferently. "I just heard this morning that my daughter offended you during the first chip design presentation in Elitos, so I've purposely brought her along to apologize to you. I hope that you can be generous and not hold it against a kid."

Adina leisurely replied, "Ms. Yackley should be twenty-two this year, right? She's just a year younger than me. I don't think a person of her age is still considered a kid."

As soon as Adina said that, Jasmine was triggered.

She was so angry that her face turned red, and she wanted to fight back, but Zhenny pressed the back of her hand down. Only Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

then did she give up, but she still scoffed loudly.

"Mdm. Jones, it seems to me that Ms. Yackley doesn't want to apologize." Adina smiled brightly and said, "Since she doesn't want to apologize, let's drop the act. Mdm. Jones, why don't you just tell me your purpose for coming here today? Perhaps we can just hit it off."

Zhenny looked at Adina with a scrutinizing gaze.

This young woman was too smart. She had not said a word, but Adina had already guessed her intention.

No wonder Duke married this woman without caring about her social position.

Zhenny hid her scrutinizing gaze before she indifferently said," In that case, I'll get straight to the point. Jones Corporation and LaStar Technology Corporation are working together to develop the chip for the Elitos project. There's 20% of the first phase of work left, but since the first 80% of the framework is too difficult for the technical staff of Jones Corporation to understand, I'd like to ask you to lend a helping hand."

"We are business partners, so I'll naturally help you if I can. But after I help you, how will I benefit ?" Adina asked indifferently.

Profit was everything in the business world.

Zhenny had prepared a contract. "The labor cost for this chip design is $40,000,000, and Jones Corporation will not take any of the labor cost. Besides..."

She added, "When it comes to the share of product sales at a later stage, Jones Corporation will only take 40% while LaStar Technology Corporation will take 60%."

Adina narrowed her eyes and fell into contemplative silence. The profit from this project was split into two payments. The first part would be the labor fee, which would be settled once the project was done. The second part was a profit draw, where the designer would obtain a share of every profit made from the sale of a product embedded with the chip.

Adina chuckled. "In other words, LaStar Technology Corporation will complete this chip independently. So, may I ask why I can only get 60% of the profit? It's not a good deal for me."

Zhenny narrowed her eyes. "So, are you turning down the collaboration?"

"Of course not." Adina shook her head. "I'll take 80% of the share, and you'll get 20%."

Zhenny's expression turned cold. "Ms. Daugherty, young people shouldn't be so greedy."

"Jones Corporation doesn't have to put any energy and time into the chip design, yet you're able to get 20% of the profit. You've earned it." Adina picked up her coffee cup with a straight face." Mdm. Jones, if you think I'm asking too much, I won't stop you from leaving."

"You!" Jasmine stood up in anger. "Adina Daugherty, don't expect us to tolerate you now that you're Mdm. Winters! I'm telling you that even if Duke Winters stands here, he won't be allowed to suppress us like this!"

Adina put her cup down with a strong thud and glared at Jasmine.
