NovelEnglish"Well, this just got interesting, didn't it? How many design proposals does Donovan's team have on the table this time? Weren't we supposed to be the buyers?" Alaric chuckled, teasing as he wheeled Lysande over to the lounge table.
Donovan quickly stood up, overly eager to please as he poured coffee for Lysander, "Mr. Sinclair, I indeed scheduled a meeting with your company's David to discuss purchasing a design proposal.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInitially, he thought David was just a minor player, who was unlikely to offer a high price for a jewelry design proposal as a buyer.
Since David was the first to arrange a meeting, he agreed to discuss it, feeling it would be rude to cancel. His plan was to meet both clients simultaneously, to see whether the Crawley Group or David would make a better offer, giving him options.
But the 'minor player' he had thought brought with him a major figure Donovan dared not offend.

What Kis die he mean by only purchasing products of equivalent value? Was he implying that the jewelry designs she and Hertha had crafted weren't worthy of The Sinclair Group's purchase? Thalassa was sure that Lysander had reviewed the documents and design sketches she and Hertha had left during their business discussion with Reginald and Callum. Was Lysander subtly dismissing her and Hertha's designs? "Exactly, Mr. Ethan, no need for gloom. Hiringas your project director was the best decision you've made.
