Mr. Labbe had never met anyone who insisted he wait for a scheduled appointment.

Whether they were interested in partnering or not, nobody had ever treated him so dismissively.

The only real challenge he faced was from the female head of the Ormond family.

He began to suspect that the Ormonds were not keen on cooperating with the Labbe Group.

Just let me know when youre free, and I'll arrange to have them delivered,” he said smoothly.
