Falling 66

By then, wouldn’t the money just come pouring in like snowflakes? 

Why was this man so possessive, getting jealous even over a business partnership? 

Instead of holding back, she continued. 

“Besides, I think Mr. Merritt will be a great business partner in the future. He’s very capable, and he could give me a lot of inspiration.” 

The next moment, Fulbert blurted out, 

“Not just in life, I’m also your business partner, but I don’t see you praising me like that.” 

He almost sounded a little aggrieved. 

Sandria was taken aback. “When did you become my business partner?” 

But then something flashed through her mind, and she narrowed her eyes slightly. 

“Are you the owner of Skyline Technologies?” 

If the man in front of her was, then everything made sense. 

No wonder Mr. Boone had treated her with such respect and courtesy, and the whole project had gone so smoothly, 

with almost no obstacles. 

At the time, she had even marveled at how quickly she was making money. 

She hadn’t expected that the person behind it all was him! 

But… why would this man do such a thing? 

And what exactly did he want from her? 

Sandria’s gaze sharpened. “Then why did you do it? And why did you hide your identity when doing business with 

me?” 

Fulbert saw the wary look in her eyes and felt a bit conflicted. 

She really was a little ungrateful. 

He had helped her, yet she acted as if he was out to harm her. 

Fulbert turned to grip the steering wheel, started the car, and spoke calmly. 

“At the very least, we’re contractually boyfriend and girlfriend. If you were living in poverty, it wouldn’t look good

for me either. Besides, I need the technology you have. It’s not a losing deal for me. As for hiding my identity, I don’t really agree with that…” 

“You never asked about my identity from the start, and I never hid it from you, did I?” 

Sandria fell silent. 

It actually… made a lot of sense. 

She really hadn’t asked, so he hadn’t told her. 

But no matter what, the fact that this man had approached her always gave her a faint sense of danger. 

With that in mind, Sandria spoke again. “Skyline Technologies‘ security tech project will be finished this week. By then, our verbal agreement will be void, right?” 

“Screech.” 

There was a traffic light ahead. Fulbert stepped on the brakes and turned to look at her. 

His gaze seemed to bore a hole through her, but Sandria calmly turned her head away. “Anything else you’d like to add?” 

Her delicate features were now cold and unfeeling. 

The red light turned green. 

Fulbert started the car and suddenly said, “The security tech project with Skyline Technologies may be done, but I have an even better collaboration in mind.” 

“Not interested.” 

Sandria replied without even thinking. 

“Don’t you want to hear it? It’s about the Burnham family…” 

Sandria had been about to refuse, but when she heard this, she turned to look at Fulbert. 

“What kind of collaboration?” 

She was clearly interested now. 

As expected, the only way to hook this little fox was with this kind of bait. 

Fulbert cleared his throat. “Have you heard of Phoenix Chips lately? The Burnham family’s electronics division wants to collaborate with Phoenix Chips. If we can win over Mr. Nelson from Phoenix Chips, we can deal a heavy blow to the Burnham family. Plus, it’s a win–win for both of us.” 

Of course Sandria knew about Phoenix Chips. As soon as it hit the market, even though the technology wasn’t perfect yet, several major electronics companies were scrambling for it. 

If they could win it over, it really could deal a serious blow to the Burnham Group.

Now that he put it that way, she found it rather interesting. 

Sandria lowered her gaze, her long lashes hiding the emotions swirling in her eyes.
