"Mr. Twain, I think we can talk about George Wood's new contract now."
Twain was instantly in a bad mood upon hearing the cocky voice.
"But there are still seven years before the contract expires."
"Mr. Twain, you must know how unfair this current contract is to George Wood!"
Twain frowned. Of course, he knew that the remuneration in the contract was too low for Wood. However, why was the person who proposed to modify the contract not Wood himself, or any other agent but Billy Woox? He always felt annoyed when Woox used Wood to threaten him.
Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Twain said, "State your terms, sir."
"Increase his salary to 40,000 pounds and shorten the contract to four years."
