Chapter 412 - New Partnership

Over dinner, Hailee took her time eating the food prepared by her dietician and nutritionist. Since she attended the party and decided to stay at the hotel overnight, no one could make her food but only her private dietitians. Her body must meet the requirement for her babies to grow healthy.

Vincent was discussing something with Pitt, James, and Kian when Daisy\'s boyfriend, Owen Silva, one of Hailee\'s knights, came over and invited the men to another table.

"Princess! I\'m going to borrow the boys!" said Owen, asking permission.

Hailee looked at Vincent, then at her knight. Later, she nodded her head. "Okay."

When the men leave, Daisy and the other girls move over to Hailee\'s table and keep her company.

"Hail, have you prepared the names of your babies?" asked Julie.

Hailee replied, "I did, but I\'m kind of having difficulty choosing the right names."

"Gosh! We should have a date to do that!" Crystal suggested. She is always the enthusiastic one to do things like that.

"Crystal, dear. Why aren\'t you getting married yet and having kids? You were always the one excited when someone in the gang got pregnant." Daisy commented, which she smacked Crystal on the hand.

Crystal rolled her eyes and replied, "Jeez. Can\'t I give my suggestion?"

"Girl, you can always make babies of your own!"

"And how should I do that when I don\'t have a boyfriend?" Crystal twitched her mouth with disgust, recalling something from the past.

"Jeez. You were just heartbroken once. The last time you were in a relationship was when we were in college." said Kyla.

"Your ex got married twice already. But you were still single till now," Carry chimed in.

"Yuck! I\'m glad I was never married to him. I should be a divorcee now!" Crystal was actually happy that she and Rex broke up because the guy remained a cheater.

Back in college, they were planning to get married after she graduated, but she found Rex sleeping with someone from the company where he had his internship.

"I am happy as f*ck!" Crystal added; the girls cheered and didn\'t continue teasing her again but opened up another topic to roast the other girls next.

Meanwhile, Owen brought Vincent to the other side of the grand dining hall and introduced him to the three men on the table near the floor-window ceiling. Vincent had already met two of these men, but he knew him very well. Although they rarely crossed, he admired the Martel company.

"Lucas Martel." Vincent shook hands with the guy.

"I\'m pleased to meet you, Mr. Shen," said Lucas.

"The pleasure is mine, Mr. Martel."

"Just call me Lucas."

"Vincent then…." Vincent smiled and sat down on the empty chair next to the guy. "I haven\'t seen you at the wedding."

"Yeah. There was an important matter that needed my attention, so mom and dad could only attend."

Lucas Martel is the new CEO of Martel Marine Boat Builders. Their family has been in the third generation of the business. But recently, Lucas faced a big problem as people are keener to purchase a yacht than a fishing boat and superyacht than a boat liner in the ocean.

"Is everything alright?" asked Vincent. Martel Boat Builders is actually one of a few companies that inspired Vincent to start designing a boat until he focused on learning to design a yacht as it demands these days.

Lucas smiled at Vincent and replied, "Things are almost getting back on track. But I don\'t want to stay in the same course. Martel Boat Builders should take several steps to be competitive in the line of maritime."

Vincent nodded his head. He was delighted with everything Lucas had said. As an owner of a yacht company, Vincent understood that to remain in the maritime industry, Martel Boat Builders and Designers should start competing in building a more modern boat. Perhaps a futuristic design.

"Vincent, do you want to join our family?" said Lucas out of the blue. "Perhaps some investment. I am selling some shares. I will give it to you at a good price to be one of the company\'s major shareholders. But we want your talent in designing. What do you think?"

"Do you want me to train your designing team on how to design modern boats and yachts?" asked Vincent.

"Particularly the yachts, yes." Lucas retorted. There is hope in his eyes that he could poach Vincent\'s talent and surpass the leading yachts builders in Oceania Continent. "Perhaps you can work on our biggest client, and my designing team can learn from you."

Lucas will place all the stakes to get Vincent into his company. Ocean liners these days are choosing to build superyachts rather than building cruise ships. Besides, Vincent would soon replace his father-in-law as CEO of Davies Corporation.

Davies Corporation was never involved in ocean liners but focused on building aircraft. Having Vincent would complete the industries this company has invested in. From real estate, hotels, shopping malls, owning several goods factories, to planes… Now, it\'s time for them to invest in maritime liners.

Vincent took a moment to ponder. Lucas\' offer is actually a good investment, as designing is his major.

"Hmm… It was actually a great idea," said Vincent, meeting Lucas\' hopeful gaze. "Martel Boat Builders is one of a few builders that inspires me to start designing a boat. In fact, the first fishing boat that dad purchased for our family was made by your company."

Lucas was surprised at learning this. It made him happy that his company actually inspired Vincent. This new information gives Lucas more hope of convincing Vincent to join them.

On the other hand, Vincent thought Martel had already made a name in the world. Recently, he was fortunate to close a deal with European investors, as they were Hailee\'s relatives and knights. It would attract more clients to a different level.

"Well, let\'s set a date to discuss further. Recently, I am working on the three superyacht designs that Mitchell Romanoff had ordered for his cruising company."

The other men from the other table, eavesdropping, were shocked upon hearing it. Mitchell Romanoff was named Prince of Russia. And tonight, they were impressed that Vincent was not someone to be underestimated.

"Hey, men! What are you discussing out here? Why did you guys forget us?" asked Mikael. Behind him is Rob Dawson.

"You missed out already! Lucas and Vincent have been talking about some business." James, who replied to Mikael.

"Really? What kind of business? Oh! Both of them are building a boat and yacht!" Mikael reacted.

"Yeah."

Mikael walks toward Vincent, who is busy on his phone. "Wow! Have you just drawn that now?"

Vincent glanced at Mikael, nodding, and then his attention returned to what he was doing. After a few minutes, he gave his phone to Lucas and said,

"If I become a partner of yours, I\'m thinking of keeping the Martel signature and mine."

Lucas looks at the sketch Vincent drew in just a few minutes. "You can work this fast!"

"Not really. It was more likely a scratch. The details are different. It needs to invest time to design the interior of each project."

"That is absolute. I am already looking forward to working with you," said Lucas.

The men continue discussing some business. Later on, Vincent excused himself and went to the washroom. After using the cubicle to release his drinks and wash his hands, a man suddenly spoke behind him.

"Do you really think that you are greater than Liam?"
