Kelly even went so far as to take out a name card and handed the name card to Kendall. "I originally arranged for a meeting with this client at 10:0AM at the Mendelson Hotel today, but I'm currently tied up with work. Why don't you go in my stead? This client is quite easy-going."

Kendall glanced at the name card she received from Kelly. Then, she picked up the large stack of documents and briefly flipped through them before she said, "If you're busy, then I don't mind helping you."

Hugging the documents to her chest, she held up the name card and continued, "I'm going back to study the documents. Don't worry, I'll be at the Mendelson Hotel at 10:30AM sharp."

Kelly had probably arranged to meet her client at the Mendelson Hotel for Kendall's sake. After all, Frank couldn't spend every day at the Mendelson Hotel.

In any case, Kendall had the feeling that Frank would not harass her anymore.

"Feel free to call me if anything comes up."

"Okay."

"Go back and look through those documents carefully. Don't forget to meet Mr. Read of Good-Trust Electronics at 10:30AM at the Mendelson Hotel." Kelly did not forget to call out one last reminder as Kendall walked out.

After leaving Kelly's office, Kendall hurried back to her own office and began reading through the documents on Good-Trust Electronics.

She discovered that it had not been long since Good-Trust Electronics was established. Although it was a very new company, the information in the documents indicated that the company seemed to be quite large. Hence, there was a high probability that this company was established by somebody who came from old money.

The person in charge of Good-Trust Electronics was known as John Read. All she knew about him was his name and contact number; everything else was a mystery. There was no detailed information on him in the documents given to her by Kelly.

Is there an affluent young man by the name of John Read in Orapolis?

As far as she could remember, there was nobody by that name among the wealthy.

In any case, it did not matter whether John came from old money. Seeing as she had accepted the task given to her by Kelly, she had to succeed in the negotiations even if he turned out to be insufferable.

Kendall arrived at the Mendelson Hotel at 10:30AM sharp.

All the employees at the hotel could recognize her at a glance. After all, the president of the hotel had previously confessed his feelings to her in a grand manner. That incident caused a huge commotion throughout the entire city.

Nobody could have imagined that Frank would fall in love with a married woman, much less the beloved wife of his greatest rival.

Naturally, many were jealous of Kendall. They did not expect the young lady of the Parker Family, who grew up in the countryside, to have such great allure as to charm both Dylan and Frank to the point where they were willing to bend over backward for her.

Kelly had booked a private room for the meeting in advance. After Kendall inquired about the room at the reception desk, she then headed toward the private room.

John arrived one minute earlier than her.

He had just stepped into the private room when she entered behind him.

Both of them were slightly taken aback when they abruptly came face-to-face with each other.

Kendall did not expect John to be so young. He looked younger than thirty. In fact, he looked to be twenty-seven or twenty-eight at most. Not only was he young, but he was also very handsome. His looks were almost comparable to Dylan's.

He was dressed in a suit, leather shoes, and a sky-blue tie, which made him look dashing.

Likewise, John was surprised by her sudden appearance.

He had seen her detailed information and her picture. Nevertheless, he discovered that she was prettier and more charming than what her pictures suggested when he saw her in person.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Read. My name is Kendall Parker, and I am in charge of discussing the terms of cooperation between our companies. I look forward to working with you." She amicably introduced herself and stretched out her right hand toward him for a handshake.

Shaking her hand, John asked, "Wasn't I supposed to meet with Vice President Parker? I believe I made an appointment to meet with Vice President Parker."

"I apologize, Mr. Read. Vice President Parker couldn't make it to the meeting due to an emergency and instructed me to attend this meeting on her behalf. I appreciate your understanding."

He answered good-naturedly, "You are President Parker's daughter, Miss Parker. Not to mention, you're working independently even though it hasn't been long since you entered the workforce. I must say that I have wanted to meet you for some time, Miss Parker."

She smiled and gestured for him to take a seat. Thus, they sat down at the table.

Kendall did not have a secretary of her own, and Jessie was too busy to come with her, so she came alone.

In any case, it was just a preliminary discussion. They had yet to reach an agreement, much less reach the stage of signing a contract with each other. Hence, there was no need for her to bring the lawyers from the legal department with her.

Similarly, John was alone.

At this moment, they were the only people inside the spacious private room. A handsome man and a beautiful woman alone together would easily cause others to misunderstand the situation.

Kendall called for the waiter and took the menu. Handing the menu to John, she smiled and said, "Mr. Read, please order what you'd like. We can talk over lunch."

John did not take the menu from her. Instead, he chivalrously replied, "Ladies first. Why don't you order for us, Miss Parker? I'm not picky with my food, so I'll eat whatever you order for me."

Since he had already said as much, she did not refuse his offer.

She had never eaten at Mendelson Hotel before, so she was unfamiliar with the menu. In any case, it was a five-star hotel that Frank often stayed at. The food could not be that bad.

"Miss Parker, since there's only the two of us, there's no need to order too many dishes. Four dishes and a soup would be more than enough. It'll be a waste if we order too much and have leftovers."

His words caused her to look at him in surprise.
