Chapter 195 The Praises

“It’s a pleasure to see you again, sir.” I maintained a respectful demeanor. “I haven’t had the chance to thank you for what you did that evening.”

“Nice to meet you, sir. I’m Chloe from Tanum Corporation.”

Mercer gave Maddox a puzzled look, surprised that he’d introduce someone like me to him. However, het soon laughed. “Oh, Tanum Corporation? You’re that young lady who founded it, huh?”
