Gilda sat calmly on the chair and smiled, saying, “You were carried into an ambulance yesterday, and you’re discharged today. Mr. Lewis, you’re really strong.”

Cheney said, “Ms. Lynch, you must be kidding. I am just afraid of delaying my work.”

Cheney’s head was still wrapped in gauze, and he was wearing a hospital gown under his suit jacket. He said courteously, “I came back to the company because I remembered that I didn’t tell you about the information about Stark Group yesterday.”

Gilda raised her chin towards the sofa and motioned Cheney to sit down there.

She believed that Cheney was a jerk. When Gilda asked him politely yesterday, he refused to tell her anything. Now he came back with the news after being beaten.

“Today, Stark Group has launched its project on nanorobots, which coincided with our medical development project,” said Cheney.

Gilda was impatient. She rubbed her temples and said in a serious tone, “Say something useful or get the hell out of here.”

Upon hearing this, Cheney trembled visibly. Knowing that Gilda was threatening with her formidable fighting skills, he promptly came to the point and stated, “Stark Group has sought cooperation with Harrington Corporation, and they are currently in the process of finalizing the contract.”

“Harrington Corporation?” Gilda was surprised.

Cheney tried to talk about it closer to Gilda with his crutches but was warned by Gilda’s eyes, so he immediately stepped aside.

“I got the news that they’re going to have a small face–to–face meeting at the suburban racetrack in two days to finalize the contract,” said Cheney.

Gilda turned the golden pen in her hand and asked Cheney, “Is the source reliable?”

“Absolutely! I promise!” said Cheney.

“Okay.” Gilda nodded.

If someone like Cheney could know such high–level confidential information, the person behind him must be in the top management of Stark Group.

Cheney had already offended Gilda and knew better than anyone what would happen if he fooled her again. He would not only break his rib again if he made Gilda angry again.

“Ms. Lynch, if the project with Stark Group is settled, I have a request for you,” Cheney said flatteringly.

But Gilda seemed to have guessed his thought and said, “Do you want to join this project?”

“Ms. Lynch, you are really wise. You’ve expected what I think.” Cheney continued to flatter Gilda.

Gilda stopped looking at Cheney and said coldly, “I see. You can leave now.”

After the door was carefully closed by Cheney, Gilda pondered for a moment and decided that she would attend this meeting between Stark Group and Harrington Corporation.

In Allath, whenever Gilda conducted business, she would invariably come into contact with Harrington Corporation. Given this inevitability, it was preferable to confront the situation directly and see who would be the last winner.

Gilda turned on her phone and browsed the headlines. She found that after three days, the trending topics about the Harrington family disappeared immediately, and even several accounts were blocked.

Harrington Corporation’s official account issued a statement directly denying all the content of the three trending topics.

Gilda sneered and her eyes became colder. The Harrington family was just trying to hide the truth. If they cared so much about their dignity, why did they do those dirty things in the first place?

At this time, the director of the Investment Project Department, David Johnson, knocked on the door and handed in a document.

“Ms. Lynch, there are all the talents recruited this time,” said David.

The Investment Project Department was the core business department of Glory Corporation’s Allath Branch, which Gilda attached great importance to. Due to the shortage of talent, no investment had been made for a long time. These days, the HR Department had been working overtime to prepare for recruitment, and the work was almost finished now.

Gilda quickly looked through the resumes and nodded her head slightly to show that her staff had done a good job. However, her smile froze when she saw a name. She then pointed at the picture of the person on the resume and kept poking it.

It was Dillan!

Gilda said coldly to David, “Exclude this person.” NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

David hurriedly took the resume over to confirm who it was. After seeing the name clearly, he looked a little embarrassed.

David said, “Ms. Lynch, Dillan has rich investment banking experience. At the age of fifteen, he made a name for himself. He is exactly what we need!“.

Gilda didn’t care about what David said at all. She and Dillan were born enemies. She hated him so much that she said, “Exlude him! Do you hear me?”

David had to agree and was about to leave when Gilda stopped him.

“Wait!” Gilda said.
