Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva-Chapter 388 - 130 Frozen Soil Ore_2

"No problem," Tilan and her party were well prepared. She instructed several accompanying professionals to step forward and hand over various documents and contract funds to the other party.

Seeing the contract presented by the other side was so seasoned and skilled, Borus slightly relaxed and then pressed the communicator beside the desk, summoning the company’s personnel responsible for contracts and financial calculations to come over.

On one side of the room, the representatives of both parties began to confirm and agree on the details step by step, while Borus sat on the sofa, engaging in conversation with the black-haired girl opposite him at the tea table.

"I didn’t expect Miss Tilan also came from the North. It’s a pity we didn’t get acquainted earlier."

Nowadays, about 80% of the large financial conglomerates and groups under Jade Skirt are concentrated in the southern regions, with large northern conglomerates being rather scarce.

"In the past, I probably wouldn’t have had the opportunity to meet someone like Mr. Borus," Tilan said, sipping her coffee slowly while her gaze drifted across the room and out the glass wall to the corridor.

"How many years have you worked for ’Frozen Earth Mining,’ Mr. Borus? I’ve heard it’s a family business."

"Yes, that’s correct. I am also a member of the Medici Family, though my blood relation to the main lineage isn’t that close."

"Compared to ordinary people, being born into such a family must be quite fortunate."

"Fortunate, I suppose so, but it’s not as carefree as outsiders think. After all, there is competition within the family, especially in large families with numerous bloodlines."

"In fact, personally I feel when a family grows to a certain size, there tends to be less of the traditional sense of closeness because you may have spoken just a few words to many people, and you don’t recognize everyone."

"It’s more like being colleagues in a company, haha, kind of like we are now," Borus was quite conversational.

As the conversation between the two warmed up, the contract documents were finally settled. Soon after, the first payment was transferred to ’Frozen Earth Mining’s’ account for confirmation.

Seeing the timing was right, Tilan nodded subtly to Annelli by her side, and the silver-haired girl stepped forward.

"Mr. Borus, do you recognize this symbol?" she asked, presenting a brooch with an overlapped silver leaf design, placing it in front of herself.

"This is... from Silver Leaf Workshop," Borus was familiar with the large vehicle manufacturing enterprise on Jade Skirt’s home planet, their companies having had some business dealings.

"That’s right. I’m Annelli Xielanhuasi, the current chairman of ’Silver Leaf Workshop’ is my father." Despite being overshadowed by Tilan, this silver-haired girl’s background was not to be underestimated, with very few in her grade able to hold a candle to her.

"My apologies, Miss Annelli, what brings you here?" He looked at the brooch, pushed his glasses up, and used the recognition AI on the frame to verify its authenticity. He then quickly retrieved information about the Xielanhuasi family from the star network, soon finding the photo of Miss Annelli.

"Because I am classmates with Tilan at Edith Academy, I am here accompanying her on this visit," Annelli explained briefly before changing the subject.

"It’s been quite a while since I last visited the North. Mr. Borus, do you have any scenic spots to recommend, especially if there’s a Medici family member of our generation to accompany us, that would be even better."

"Of course, that’s no problem." Although Borus didn’t understand why Miss Annelli had suddenly come over, these were not matters for him to worry about. As a middle manager, his role was to confirm the contract and make initial contact. If they were really going to sign this deal, it would certainly require a high-level signature, and today was merely about advancing the process a bit.

"Please wait a moment, I’ll get in touch right away," he said, standing up, briefly instructing the staff members nearby, and then left the room. Enjoy more content from novelbuddy

"With this, we should meet the Medici Family’s current direct heir, right?" Tilan asked Annelli beside her.

"Yes, I guess it’ll probably be a contemporary inheritor. Although Tatanis is favored, she’s a girl and too young compared to her peers to be the main successor."

"While outsiders see great glamour in large financial families like ours, there are clear differences in status within our families. Take myself for an example; though I’m younger, none of my elder brothers dare to make me angry. It’s not just because I’m more favored but also because I’m among the top three heirs designated by my father."

"Among our generation, the three of us have a much more distinguished status than our siblings, but we also face greater competitive pressure since ultimately, only one among us can become the next head of the family," Annelli explained.

"That reminds me of Sister Vurowus. She seemed to want to avoid such competition, which is why she came to Payin City to work as a maid," the girl recalled a scene from a year ago when the silver-haired big sister had taken her to work, teaching her how to sort and process ingredients and make a delicious dinner for her.

Suddenly she missed Sister Vurowus’s cooking.

As Tilan reminisced, a tall, light-golden-haired man entered the room. He appeared to be in his late twenties, with a somewhat mature demeanor.

"Good day, Miss Tilan, Miss Annelli," he said, his blue eyes deep and his manner efficient, exuding an unexpressed sharpness.

"Hello, may I ask?" Tilan blinked.

"Oh, I should introduce myself. I am Feromed Medici, the current primary heir to the Medici Family." It seemed the Medici Family had already confirmed him to be the next in line, a fact he conveyed with certainty and confidence, as the surrounding staff breathed more quietly and tensely.
