Don't Fall For Me, CEO-Chapter 1101: Are You Dreaming?

"Descendant of the Kanes?"

Joseph was shocked and puzzled: "Didn’t they always avoid the hotel and catering industry?"

The Kane Group covers a wide range of areas, but it’s precisely in hotel and catering that they’ve never been involved.

"That’s true, but the descendant of the Kanes is right in front of me now. How about you come over yourself?"

Joseph’s ambition was very clear: he wanted to defeat the Kanes and become the sole ruler of Desrozin City.

Hence, Joseph had always secretly been competing with the Kane industries.

Now asking him to sell his industry to the Kanes, Freddy felt it was unrealistic.

Joseph probably also felt it was necessary to speak personally with the descendant of the Kanes, so he agreed to come.

About ten minutes later, Joseph raced to the meeting room at The Penguin Hotel.

When he entered, the descendant of the Kanes was still leisurely savoring red wine.

"Mr. Keaton, nice to meet you."

Joseph politely stepped forward to greet and shake hands.

"Hello!" Kyle Keaton did not refuse the handshake; but once done, he urged: "Can we sign the contract now? We’ve been waiting for you for over ten minutes. Time is very precious."

He had just performed well in front of July Quinn, and was now desiring a gentle retreat. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

However, July Quinn was preoccupied with the acquisition matters and kicked him out of bed, warning that unless he signed the contract, he wouldn’t have the chance to see her.

Thus, Kyle Keaton hurried to sign the contract, hoping to take the signed agreement back to delight July Quinn.

But Joseph wasn’t happy hearing his urgency.

After all, they had waited for Kyle Keaton for a whole hour earlier.

Now, he was unhappy for waiting just over ten minutes?

The point is, he’s not definitely going to sell The Penguin Hotel to him.

"Mr. Keaton, I believe the acquisition proposal price you’ve offered is too low. All our equipment, Beast Tamers, and chefs are ready-made, and our hotel’s influence in this area is considerable. Just based on these points, I think the acquisition price should increase by twenty percent."

Yes, this was Joseph’s tactic.

He indeed didn’t want to sell the industry to someone he sees as a competitor, but if the descendant of the Kanes would add money to the previously agreed price, it’ll be alright.

As for whether the descendant of the Kanes is willing to raise the price, Joseph thinks he should be.

Since the descendant of the Kanes took over the Kane Group’s management, there hasn’t been any clear direction, nor any eye-catching projects to date.

Additionally, Joseph had specifically dispatched people to investigate the descendant of the Kanes, but couldn’t uncover any highlights in his past.

So now, in Joseph’s eyes, the descendant of the Kanes’ most remarkable traits are probably his height and face.

As long as he can fully control the atmosphere, he doesn’t believe the acquisition price won’t go up.

Yet Joseph was absolutely unprepared for the descendant of the Kanes to laugh when he heard about the price increase.

Joseph was dumbfounded by the laughter and then heard the man ask him: "Are you dreaming?"

"What do you mean?" Joseph’s face fell on the spot.

"It means I can’t possibly increase the price; in fact, after I just toured the hotel’s interior facilities and saw those penguins, tamers, and chefs, I actually think the price I initially offered was too high."

Kyle Keaton was merely worn out by July Quinn’s antics, kicked out of bed to sign the contract on her behalf.

He originally had no intention of changing the content of the contract, just wanted to swiftly get back into bed.

As a result, Joseph even wanted to negotiate the price, so of course, he’d further press the price down, just to go back and please July Quinn.
