Chapter 0462 About half an hour later, a bright red : Porsche came to a slow stop beneath the research institute building.

"Alexander, this is it," Amber said as she opened the door and got out of the car. She nervously held onto Alexander's arm, looking at the imposing research institute building in front of them. Her pretty face betrayed a hint of unease.

"If the negotiations fail, our new product might not hit the market for at least another six months. The Xanthos family's advantage will be established, and it'll be hard for us to turn the tables." Alexander shook his head and smiled.

After returning from Yewspire Mountain, he barely touched the ground, immediately coming to Zabaleta with Amber. Although he was extremely familiar with the city, this research institute was relatively unfamiliar.

The Duncan family in the north did not seem to have much fame.

"Halt!" Just as they reached the entrance of the first-floor lobby, two security guards, one on each side, crossed their arms to block their way. Their faces were unfriendly. "Do you have an invitation? This is a crucial area for the institute, and access without an invitation is strictly prohibited!" Huh?

Amber was slightly surprised. Before coming here, she had sent a corporate letter to Duncan Institute of Research through the company's business department. Deputy Director Lucian personally replied, and there was no mention of any invitation.

"None?" The two security guards looked at each other, then suddenly pulled out rubber batons from their waists, their faces fierce. "Since there's no invitation, get lost now. This is not a place where anyone and everyone can come. If there's a data leak, your heads won't be enough to compensate!" Amber's face turned pale, and she sighed softly in her heart.

This was an intimidation tactic.

Deputy Director Lucian must be aware that they, along with Alexander, have come. The security's attitude was unexpectedly hostile, insisting on holding onto the invitation and not allowing them in. It was evident that today's negotiations would be difficult.

In fact, there might not even be negotiations.

"Apologies." By Amber's side, Alexander remained expressionless, calmly observing the two security guards. "Whether it was instructed by Lucian or your own initiative, if you dare show disrespect to my wife, you'll have to face the consequences.

Apologize to my wife immediately, or bear the consequences yourself!" The two security guards hesitated fora

moment, then slowly retreated, their faces filled with caution. They had just received Lucian's orders not tolet Amber and Alexander easily enter, needing to give them a taste of their authority. However, Alexander's reaction clearly exceeded their expectations.

Insults against Amber had touched a nerve with Alexander.

Clap, clap, clap! An unexpected round of applause, accompanied by laughter, echoed from the first-floor hall. "Haha, truly famous! But meeting you is even better. Mister Kane and Miss Chesire are deeply in love, ordering around the security guards of the Duncan family.

How imposing, how domineering!"

As the words were spoken, footsteps approached without hurry, stopping slowly in front of Alexander and Amber. It was Lucian, the deputy director of the Duncan Institute of Research.

"Let's not beat around the bush. What do you want?" Alexander was not in the mood for small talk, getting straight to the point. "The data we're after is clearly stated in the corporate letter. Money for information, and that's the end of it." Lucian raised an eyebrow, showing a hint of surprise in his gaze. In negotiations, he always maintained control, but this time, he was taken aback. He did not expect Alexander to be so direct, going straight to the heart of the matter.

| "Well then, let's be frank." Lucian chuckled a few times, gesturing for the two security guards to step aside.

Then, extending three fingers, he spoke in a low voice, "This isn't my decision; it's Miss Duncan's. If you want to purchase our data, you must hand over thirty percent of the New Chesire Group's shares.

"Don't bother negotiating with me.

This is non-negotiable!"
