The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor novel Chapter 142

"Grandfather asked you to come here? That’s impossible.”

Selena frowned and was wondering if she had heard wrongly.

“Of course. I'm not here for myself, I’m here for the Taylor family. I'm also here as Grandfather's proxy to sign the contract with you!

Ivan’s face was filled with a big smile and said to Selena, "Of course, I'm being considerate. In order for you to advance further in the Drake family, I'd not make it too difficult for you on the profit share!”

"Impossible!”

Selena's face darkened. "You must be lying to me. Grandfather said that he would not force me to work together with the Taylor family when I've only just started working here. If the Drake’s know about it, the Drake's would lose trust in me."

After all, Selena knew Ivan’s vile character very well. I t was entirely possible that he was lying for profit.

"Haha, if you don't believe me, you can call him right now. I don't have to lie to you about things like these.”

Ivan laughed and continued, "You should be sure in your heart that the old master had long hoped that the Taylor family would rise up to be one of the second-

class aristocratic families. This is a great opportunity t o get us to become a first-class aristocratic family. Do you think that he will miss this chance?”

Selena’s facial expression continued to darken as she heard this. She was very clear that the temptation of becoming a second-class aristocratic family was hard to resist.

If this project was not too big, the old master would not have bat an eye and would make other long-term plans instead. However, it was no surprise that the old master was moved by such a big project that could bring the Taylor family to become a second-class aristocratic family.

"Cousin, what’re you waiting for? This is a very good opportunity for our family. You, as a part of Taylor's, should side our family!”

After he finished talking, Ivan retrieved around 200 thousand cash from his bag and placed it on Selena's table. "Consider this as part of your commission. After all, your daughter needs money to study. Although your salary is high, there is still some time before they pay your salary, right? Besides, the new semester is starting soon, you don't want your daughter to wait for another year, right?"

When Ivan saw that Selena remained quiet with a dark expression on her face, he smiled and continued, "This small amount of money is surely not enough. I'm sure that you'd expect more than this for such a big project! I was thinking... That I should chase Fane out o f our house when he can't pay the 10 million compensation on Old Master's birthday, and settle my issues with him later elsewhere! Now, however, it seems like there's a better solution!" Ivan suggested that he would now chase Fane out of the family if Selena agreed to sign the contract with the Taylor's.

Selena was immediately enraged. "Ivan Taylor, what are you trying to say?! Didn't we agree that we would resolve that issue with a compensation of 10 million? You're going to chase him out and not acknowledge him as my husband if he can't come up with the money, and that is it!"
