The atmosphere in the meeting room was tense. Some agreed, some opposed, while some just watched.
Nicole looked at Grant, whose eyes were slightly narrowed. His face was cold and indifferent as if he did not care about their arguments.
Logan saw this and coughed heavily. Everyone instantly quieted down and looked at Grant’s attitude.
Grant’s gaze was slightly cold as he swept a glance at Christian Jenner. His voice carried a grim chill.
"Mr. Jenner, you want to give your son a chance that badly?"
Christian Jenner was cowardly, but he worked up the courage to do this because he knew that his son would be kicked out of Stanton Corporation if he did not have some achievements.
"President Grant, Xion’s achievements in the business department are obvious to all. I believe that he can take on this project."
The corners of Grant's lips curled into a seemingly cold smile, but on closer look, there seemed to be no changes on his face.
"Then what if he can't close the deal?"
The atmosphere froze for a while.
The silence was alarming.
Christian's face instantly stiffened. His eyes flickered slightly.
"If he can’t..."
Grant raised his head and said in a cold voice, "This project is Stanton Corporation's most valued project. It involves a lot of our efforts, so if he can’t get it, it will cause more than a loss of reputation to our company. Mr. Jenner, whether your son has the ability to take o n such a big responsibility is another matter. If our rivals get the project instead of us, who will bear this responsibility?"
Did he think that they would just sweep this under the rug?
The meeting room instantly fell silent. Even people's breathing became cautious.
If Stanton Corporation’s rival company could land this deal, it would not only cause a huge impact on Stanton Corporation's reputation and status, but it would also affect the subsequent series of cooperation. The entire Stanton Corporation's development would even go into decline because of it.
Could Christian Jenner afford to take this responsibility?
Christian's face changed at once. He thought that Grant would let him go since he had worked for Stanton Corporation for so many years.
However, Grant mentioned the consequences.
Everyone’s eyes turned to Christian Jenner.
