She slumped down on the floor, looking crushed and defeated.


    Carl promptly called for his men and asked them to take her out.


    In spite of all her attempts, Marco’s mood was not affected at all. In fact, he now looked at Loraine


    affectionately.


    He never expected that Loraine would still remember his habits. Truly, he didn’t like desserts, but he


    never really told anyone or showed it in any way.


    He was a very cold person that seldom revealed his emotions to the public, so it was difficult for most


    people to detect his preferences.


    The best they could do was guess.


    Only Loraine knew him well.


    And that was due to the fact that in the past three years, she had been taking good care of him with all


    her heart.


    At this point, a warm feeling arose in Marco’s heart, and he began to feel regretful.


    He had such a good wife, but he ended up pushing her away.


    He still wanted to say something, but Loraine beat him to it. “Since everyone is here, let’s start the


    meeting,” she said.


    Marco could only do exactly what she asked. He was someone who always separated business from


    private matters, and he wouldn’t let their negotiations get affected by emotions.

    During the discussions, Loraine argued strongly and refused to give in.


    For a moment, the atmosphere in the conference room became tense.


    From his study of the previous partnership between bothpanies,


    Nichol, the project director at Bryant Group, took the initiative to make a concession. “I think we can


    use the design of Universe Group. I will assist Miss Torres with anything she might need.”


    Loraine was a little surprised and she couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong? Why are you being so


    cooperative?”


    Nichol felt embarrassed by the question. “I know and trust you well enough now.”


    And that was not mentioning the fact that Loraine was the niece of Mr.


    T, whom Nichol saw as his idol. For his sake, Nichol would never make things difficult for Loraine.


    And more importantly, Marco had just fired an employee for the sake of


    Loraine. So, he would not be stupid enough to go against her.


    Eventually, the meeting ended sessfully.
