“You want me to introduce you to Old Mr. Laith? I’ll do it on one condition,” Ashlyn said, her lips curling up slightly. “So, it’s up to you.”

“What condition?” Penelope asked anxiously.

“Tell me about your collaboration with Mr. Haddock.” The look on Penelope’s face amused Ashlyn.

Does this woman think that everyone is dumb like her? How dare she ask me to introduce her to Old Mr. Laith? The audacity!

Penelope was already boiling with fury. The fact that Ashlyn tried to circumvent her effort to sound out information about Harvey and the talk of a condition made her even more furious.

“What do you mean? The collaboration between Yates Group and Haddock Group is confidential. Are you forcing me to commit a crime? No outsider can know about this. I only wanted you to help introduce me to Old Mr. Laith. It’s just a simple favor, and yet you have the cheek to bring up talks of a condition!”

“Then, I’m afraid that meeting the chairman of Magnecal Tech is considered a business meeting. Please make an appointment at the reception of Magnecal Tech if you wish to meet Old Mr. Laith,” Ashlyn replied mockingly.

“Ashlyn!” Penelope gnashed her teeth in exasperation, glaring at Ashlyn. “You grew up in the Berry household, and you’re also a Berry! You’ve snatched my place as the eldest daughter of the Berry family. You owe me that, and now it’s time for you to pay me back. Don’t be so petty as all I’m asking you is to introduce me to Old Mr. Laith.”
