Chapter 60\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany didn\u2019t send Silas a single accusatory text.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The next morning, she skipped breakfast and drove straight to work.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Silas had returned late the night before, but Bethany was already long asleep by then.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When he got up for work, she was gone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As a longtime maid of the Brennan family, Jane couldn\u2019t help but say, \u201cMr. Brennan, don\u2019t blame me for saying this. With you coming home so late and leaving early, it\u2019s no wonder Mrs. Brennan\u2019s upset. Mr. Brennan Senior is waiting to hold his grandchild next year, but you two are still sleeping separately.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Criticism from someone familiar always hit the hardest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Silas set down his fork and wiped his mouth. \u201cI\u2019m done eating. I\u2019m heading to work now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jane sighed and immediately reported the situation to Jeremy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the car, Silas kept a tense expression as he called Oscar.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before he could say anything, Oscar beat him to it. \u201cDon\u2019t rush me, Silas. I\u2019m driving over to your wife\u2019s company to apologize right now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Silas gritted his teeth and said coldly, \u201cYou\u2019d better be quick about it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just as Bethany arrived at the company, Easton called her over to the operations department for an abrupt meeting.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the meeting room, Bethany saw Oscar standing in wait.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Smiling, Oscar said, \u201cMs. Porter, it\u2019s an honor.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Easton cheerfully introduced him. \u201cThis is Mr. Oscar Mitchell, CEO of Mitchell Corp.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany was puzzled but still nodded politely. \u201cIt\u2019s nice to meet you, Mr. Mitchell.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Easton explained, \u201cMs. Porter, Mr. Mitchell has a new entertainment center project in Aleron that\u2019s about to start construction. Our hotel in Aleron opened just last month, and Mr. Mitchell admires it. He wants to house their management\u00a0<\/p>\n
team at our hotel.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Easton was visibly excited just talking about it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just one executive staying in a presidential suite would bring in one million dollars per year, even at a negotiated rate.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That would be three million dollars over three years! Better yet, Oscar was looking to place an entire management team of at least 50 people at their hotel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Easton was practically buzzing with excitement.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As it turned out, Oscar was sincere in his apology. In fact, he even managed to flatter Bethany at the same time. \u201cI encountered Ms. Porter at a party recently, and she promoted Elysian quite well. That\u2019s why I chose your hotel.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany\u2019s mouth twitched at the fabricated praise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry, Mr. Clay, but would you mind stepping out? I\u2019d like to have a private word with Mr. Mitchell.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Easton knew that this deal was on the table solely because of Bethany, so he gladly agreed. \u201cSure, I have some files to send anyway. You two carry on.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once the room was empty save for the two of them, Bethany got straight to the point. \u201cMr. Mitchell, is this Silas\u2018 idea?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Oscar dropped the formal attitude and put on a flattering smile. \u201cBethany, I\u2019m sorry about last night\u2019s trending news.\u00a0<\/p>\n
AMEXC\u00a0<\/p>\n
WHY PAY MORE? BTC LOWEST FEES DELIVERED\u00a0<\/p>\n
X CLOSE\u00a0<\/p>\n
Actually, that was all on me. Silas was only covering for me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI broke up with that escort, but he showed up at the club, got all handsy with Silas, and ended up on the news. It was a total misunderstanding!\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen Silas found out, he told me to apologize to you right away. So, how\u2019s this apology gift? Do you like it?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany smiled gently. This was a multi\u2013million\u2013dollar deal being offered, so how could she not like it?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not mad, but thank you, Mr. Mitchell.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Oscar chuckled. \u201cDon\u2019t call me that. Just Oscar is fine.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The rest of the conversation went smoothly, and the contract was signed on the spot.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Easton\u2019s grin almost stretched to his ears.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Thanks to Bethany, the quarterly marketing target was easily achieved.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMs. Porter, how should we split the commission?\u201d Easton asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany smiled. \u201cThe operations department can keep it. I don\u2019t need a cut.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
