    Chapter 129


    Ivor’s heart sank when he heard Bonnie’s outrageous requests. On the other hand, thetter


    chuckled inwardly.


    Ged, who had followed Ivor, pped the staircase railing andughed heartily, saying, “Damn, that’s


    hrious!”


    Bonnie suppressed herughter and said, “How about something simpler, like chicken noodle


    soup?”


    Ivor sighed in relief. He would rather be in an intense corporate meeting than cook the dishes


    Bonnie mentioned earlier. After all, he had barely cooked before.


    “All right, wait a moment. I’ll be quick.” Ivor turned to Ged and said, “There won’t be noodles for you.


    “Hey,


    I wasn’tughing at you just now! I wasughing at myself.”


    Avril looked absent–minded after her call with Bonnie. The former had something to say but ended


    up swallowing her words. Daken noticed his daughter’s absent–mindedness and asked, “What’s


    wrong? Did something happen?”


    “Ahem! Dad, did Tang Fusion Studios cancel its coboration with the Dyngards?”


    “I just got the news. Everyone suspects the Dyngards had probably offended someone they


    shouldn’t have.” Daken lit a cigarette as he spoke.


    Avril recalled Bonnie saying something about the Dyngards no longer being business partners with


    Tang Fusion Studios yesterday. Bonnie’s words echoed non–stop in Avril’s mind, and she wondered


    if it was just a coincidence or if Bonnie was psychic.


    “Avril? Hey, what’s wrong with you?” Daken’s voice brought Avril out of her thoughts.


    “Um, Bonnie just called and said we should participate in Tang Fusion Studios’s project bidding


    tomorrow.”


    “What’s that?” Daken was stunned.


    “She also said ourpany should devise a proposal and that Tang Fusion will prioritize


    cooperating with us if the proposal is decent.” Avril continued, her heart filled with unease.Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Daken held his cigarette nkly for a moment. A momentter, he frowned and asked, “Is that a


    joke or something?”


    “I don’t think Bonnie jokes around like that, Dad.” Avril’s words caused Daken to fall into deep


    thought again. She added, “Dad, there’s another thing. Bonnie and I ran into Brittany at the mall


    today.”


    “So, you and Brittany had a conflict, and the Dyngards‘ coboration got canceled?” Daken was


    Chapter 129


    shocked.


    Avril gulped and asked, “Do you think it could be a coincidence?”


    272


    “Not necessarily.” Daken pursed his lips and squinted. “Do you remember Bonnie picking you up in


    a Maybach yesterday?”


    “I remember, 80- “Avril’s eyes widened. “Bonnie contacted someone in the store. It was most likely a


    higher–up of Tang Fusion, or maybe even the CEO!”


    “That’s highly likely. Don’t spread this information for now. After all, that’s just our spection. Even


    if it’s true, don’t discuss it with anyone. It’s Bonnie’s private matter. If she doesn’t want to disclose it,


    you shouldn’t either.”


    “I understand, Dad. It’s just It can’t be Mr. Hamish of Tang Fusion Studios, right? He’s quite


    handsome and is also the chief designer. He’s skillful, but he’s already thirty–five.”


    “What’s wrong with being thirty–five? Men age like fine wine, especially in their thirties. They’re at


    the peak of their charm by that age.” Daken disagreed with Avril’s viewpoint.
