Chapter 0022

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was already the day for Chesire Group to sign the

contract with Severn Group.

Standing before the Severn Group’s huge office building, Zoe gazed up in awe and exclaimed, “The

Severn Group!”

The building had over 120 floors and stood over 400 meters tall, serving as a landmark in Ol‘ Mare.

The owner of this grand structure, the Severn family, had risen in recent years and expanded its

industries throughout the region. They had branches in many major cities nationwide, making them a

renowned business giant in Ol‘ Mare, and even the entire province of Tormora.

In the presence of the Severn family, second–tier families like the Chesire family were like mere small

fishes in a large pond with no basis for comparison.

Wearing elegant high heels, holding a leather briefcase, and swaying her slender figure gracefully, Zoe

walked to the lobby’s service desk. She offered a charming smile to the receptionist and said, “Hello.

I’m Zoe Chesire, Chesire Group’s assistant general manager. I’m here to see Mister Severn for the

previously discussed collaboration project ready for signing.”

The service desk had a total of 12 receptionists, all equally beautiful. One of them glanced at Zoe and

smiled professionally, asking, “Could you please show your appointment letter?”

An appointment letter?

Zoe was taken aback. After all, the project was already settled, and only the final step was left—the

signing process. She was annoyed and wondered why Patrick did not inform her that she needed an

appointment letter to meet Severn Group’s general manager, George Severn.

“I’ve said it already. I’m Zoe Chesire, the Chesire Group’s assistant general manager,” said Zoe, her

tone growing colder. “We’ve discussed the project and are down to the final signing. Isn’t a verbal

arrangement for the appointment enough? Do you understand the importance of this contract? It’s a
