    “Yeah, we finalized everythingst month. We also signed the contract not long ago. It seems


    you’ve been keeping tabs on things,” Dermot knew Gresham was trying to butter him up, but he


    weed it


    nheless.


    “Excellent! You’re such a ss act, Mr. Dermot! I can’t believe you locked in a coboration with


    Tang Fusion Studios. I’m highly impressed!” Gresham took a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.


    “It’s nothing remarkable. Perhaps Tang Fusion Studios liked our proposal. We put a lot of work into


    it, after all.”


    “That’s humble of you, Mr. Dermot. Tang Fusion Studios is one of the most prominent group


    companies in Pyralis. It’ll take more than a sound proposal to get their approval. I’ll bet it’s because


    of you and your reputablepany.”


    Gresham was about to continue praising Dermot when thetter’s phone rang. “It’s a call from my


    assistant. Please excuse me.”


    “Sure, go ahead. I’ll tell my chef to prepare more dishes for dinner.” Grasham turned and made his


    way to the kitchen. However, he had not even taken two steps when he heard Dermot’s agitated


    voice.

    “Run that by me again! Why would Tang Fusion change their minds about our coboration?”


    Gresham stopped and turned to look at Dermot. Even Nia and Brittany looked at him. Dermot


    reddened with anger as he asked, “Why would they im we offended someone important? When


    did we do that? Did you ask for the details?”


    His assistant replied, “I don’t know the specifics, Mr. Dermot. The project manager called me a


    minute ago and used us of not respecting them. He also said they’d never work with us.”


    Dermot began to panic and was about to lose it.


    Gresham gulped and asked softly, “What happened, Mr. Dermot?”


    ‘How am I supposed to fucking know?!‘ Dermot almost lost his cool and roared at Gresham.


    A momentter, Dermot red at his daughter so fiercely that she felt goosebumps all over her


    body, asking, “Wh–why are you looking at me like that, Dad?”


    “Did you offend anyone today?” Besides his daughter, who had a knack for picking fights, Dermot


    could not understand why Tang Fusion Studios would cancel their coboration with hispany.


    “I–I didn’t offend anyone! All I did was have a little spat with Bonnie.”


    “Bonnie?” Dermot frowned.


    “It can’t be her!” Brittney was able to guess some of her dad’s thoughts based on his earlier phone


    conversation. “I mean it. I didn’t offend any important figure. As for Bonnie, she’s just a bumpkin. Do


    you honestly think she’s some kind of big shot?”

    ‘Bonnie? A big shot? It won’t take a genius to figure out the answer as a resounding no.‘


    “Wait a minute. Could it be Bonnie’s sugar daddy?” Brittany had an epiphany. When she said it out


    loud, everyone in the dining hall was bbergasted.


    Dermot turned to look at Gresham and asked, “Does anyone know who Bonnie’s sugar daddy is?”


    Gresham paled, saying, “Um, we’re not sure, but do you think Bonnie’s behind this? It’s Tang Fusion


    Studios we’re talking about here. I don’t think they would give up on coboration because Bonnie


    asked them to.”

    Dermot replied, “Regardless, she’s the prime suspect here. Also, she was mean to my daughter,


    and I won’t let that slide. Do you have her phone number? I want to talk to her in person.”
