Chapter 950
As she walked to the doorway, she heard the head of the company, who had been desperately trying to
cooperate with her not long ago, dismiss her efforts.
"Who does she think she is, being so arrogant in front of me? If it weren't for Valiant East and Inchee
Company, she would not even be able to see me. There are so many projects in the world that are
more reliable than hers. Why should I look at hers?"
Naomi clenched her fists, straightened her back, and strode away.
Eudora once told her that they must be more confident when they were treated with scorn and ridiculed
by others.
"Don't let criticism and derision distress you, instead we should stand up and face them dauntlessly.
Otherwise, you and your family will be the ones who are upset while those people who belittle you will
remain unruffled," she thought about her mother's advice.
There was only one way to defeat those people, which was to use actions to prove them wrong.
After leaving the company, Naomi took a deep breath, changed her route and went towards the next
company.
Nelson knew about those companies that she had visited the last time and how they all acted arrogant.
Therefore, she intended to switch her target to a company where the people there might not know her
real identity.
She spent the whole morning trying to look for new clients, but the results were the same. Some of
them would discover her identity and try to be as enthusiastic as possible to pull off a deal.
On the other hand, those who had no idea about her identity would not even give her an opportunity to
present her proposals at all.
Naomi came out of the last company despondently and sat down on a bench by the roadside for a
while.
A pair of leather shoes came into sight. She looked up and saw Nelson standing in front of her, panting.
He sized her up and sat down beside her.
"Why didn't you sign the contract with the man from that company?"
Naomi was bemused and said, "Were you looking for me because of that?"
Nelson remained silent. He had been in a meeting just now when he received a phone call from the
boss of that company.
"Mr. Luther, it's not that I wanted to make you look bad but I've already done what you asked, but she
doesn't appreciate my efforts at all! When she left, she was even furious! Moreover, a lot of my friends
in the business circle called me, saying that they were visited by her too. As expected, she didn't obtain
any satisfying results! There are so many experienced project partners in this circle, hence there's no
reason for us to collaborate with a novice. Without a reputation for herself, her proposal is worthless
even if she prepared it seriously."
Nelson let out a deep breath, trying to dispel the perturbation from the bottom of his heart.
"I was just passing by!"
Naomi gave a perfunctory nod. After a while, she stood up again.
After a while, she stood up again, "I still have something to do. I'll go first!"
Nelson stretched out his hand and grabbed her bag. He asked, "Don't tell me you're still going to look
for more new clients!"
Naomi pursed her lips and said, "Why not?"
In this world, there were not many challenges that could make her give up. She was extremely
determined to prove herself.
Nelson frowned and said, "Why are you so persistent? Obviously, you have a good background, so you
can just make use of it and get your work done in an easier way. In addition, your project has its own
strengths. Do you really have to prove yourself? What's the point of doing so?"
What was the point in doing so?
She turned to look at Nelson and said, "Of course, there's a point! I'll feel a sense of accomplishment
and I will be full of confidence in myself! Furthermore, I'll be happy!"
Nelson was dumbfounded for a moment as Naomi's words reminded him of the time when he was
abroad.
At that time, he had just started to establish Inchee Company.
It was way more difficult to set up a company than to set up a project! For that reason, the difficulties he
had faced were probably a hundred times tougher than the difficulties met by Naomi.
He had met countless project managers and had visited numerous companies. Basically, he was on
the road to either meet them or was on the way to meet them throughout that period for half a year.
In the end, his attempts had always been greeted with rejection.
It was not until half a year later that he met his current business partner, who had quite a lot of
connections, and then they strove to reach where they currently were.
Nelson sneered and said, "You won't succeed! There has never been such a thing like fairness in this
world, and that's why you should just give up!"
This time, Naomi looked at him with a trace of disappointment in her eyes.
Without saying anything else, she turned around and left.
Then, she began to visit one company after another.
Nelson followed after her, not knowing himself why he was doing so.
It was as if he had seen his past self, who had taken a shortcut eventually. He failed to believe that
Naomi could succeed by herself!
After busying themselves for a few hours, the sky started to darken.
Nelson said again, "As I've said, you won't succeed. The employers and employees in most of the
companies have already gotten off work at this time. You better give up!"
Naomi turned and glared at him with some displeasure as she shouted, "Shut up! As a man, why are
you so pessimistic?"
After that, Nelson truly shut his mouth up!
Naomi looked at the last potential client on the list in her hand.
Obviously, she still felt a little uneasy. It was indeed time for people to get off work. However, since this
company was the last, she still wanted to try her luck.
As a result, she still went for it.
Unsurprisingly, the receptionist told her, "I'm sorry, our boss isn't here."
Then, the receptionist started tidying up her belongings and got ready to get off work.
Naomi's last glimmer of hope dissipated. She took a deep breath and wondered whether there really
was no fairness in this world as Nelson said.
Her fingers trembled and the documents in her hand fell to the ground with a crash.
Before Naomi noticed it, someone called her from behind all of a sudden.
"Miss, here are your documents." NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Naomi shook her head and said, "Forget it! Please help me throw them into the dustbin!"
Unexpectedly, the man asked again out of curiosity.
"Why do you want to throw such a superb document into the dustbin? Are you here to negotiate a
cooperation with our company?"
Naomi, who was already in despair, suddenly felt that her spark of hope had rekindled. She quickly
turned around and walked back to look at the man intently.
He looked mature and seemed to be in his forties.
Seeing that Naomi was sizing him up, the man smiled again.
"What? Are you worried that I'm a liar? You don't have to worry, everyone here can prove that I'm the
boss. How about coming in and discussing the cooperation with me?"
"Cooperation? Are you willing to cooperate with me?" Naomi asked excitedly.
"Why not? Your proposal is outstanding! I like it very much."
Naomi beamed at him.
However, at the thought of the previous situation that she had encountered, she couldn't help but ask
again, "Do you know me?"
The man asked in bewilderment, "Huh? You don't want to work with me if I don't know you?"
Seeing his reaction, Naomi finally felt at ease.
"No! I'm glad that you don't know me. Only then can I cooperate with you! This is great! Let's go in
and talk."
A moment later, Naomi came out of the room. Nelson was still waiting for her at the entrance. When he
saw her coming over with her head bowed down, he finally could not bear it.
Thus, he tried to comfort her, "It's not a big deal..."
Before he could say anything, Naomi had already shown him the first contract that she had just signed.
"Look, I made it!"
