Chapter 520 Andrew smiled calmly.

Alright, one final question.

Ruby, clearly irritated, snapped, Mr.

Lloyd, enough is enough.

You just said the last question was your final one.

Andrew chuckled, unfazed.

It just popped into my head, Ms.

Dickinson

No need to get so tense this one isnt about the collaboration.

Just casual chit chat.

Ruby huffed

Tense? Whos tense? Youre quite the joker, Mr.

Lloyd

Ask your question I have other matters to attend to

Rhodes Corporation isnt the only company knocking on Amberpeaks door.

Andrews smile took on a sharper edge.

I heard from Mr.

MacAfee earlier that the two of you discussed the collaboration thoroughly and worked very hard, even late into the evening

Is that correct? Ruby froze for a moment, then nodded.

Yes, Mr.

MacAfee is very dedicated.

We had a detailed conversation yesterday and talked until around nine in the evening.

Troy, clearly proud of himself, chimed in, It was exhausting, but for Rhodes Corporation, its my duty. Mr.

Lloyd, as someone who lives a carefree life of wealth and leisure, wouldnt understand the dedication and effort this kind of work requires

While he highlighted his sacrifices, Troy could not resist sneaking in a jab at Andrews supposed lack of professionalism

Andrew, still grinning, said, Oh, I see.noveldrama

Ms.

Dickinson and Mr.

MacAfee really did work hard and for quite some time

He glanced at Lauren and added, Coincidentally, Ms.

Rhodes and I happened to witness just how hard the two of you were working yesterday.

Lauren caught on immediately and smiled sweetly.

Exactly, Mr.

Lloyd

Yesterday, we were standing outside the Stanton Hotel and saw Mr.

MacAfee and Ms.

Dickinson leaving together.

They certainly seemed to be putting in a lot of effort.

In fact, Lauren continued, her tone turning mischievous, from the way they were chatting and laughing,

one could guess their negotiation likely took place in one of the hotels more... intimate king-sized suites.

It must have been quite the scene business discussions so intense they practically brought the house down! Honestly, Ive never seen such a unique way of closing deals.

Truly, Ms.

Dickinson and Mr.

MacAfee are exceptional in their approach to business on a completely different level than the rest of us. The two played off each other so seamlessly that the rooms atmosphere grew increasingly tense and awkward

Troys face turned beet red, a mix of embarrassment and anger.

He stammered, W Wait, how did you know we went to the Stan- He cut himself off, realizing he had almost given himself away

Rubys face twisted in a mortified grimace.

She gritted her teeth and said, Yesterday, Mr.

MacAfee and I 1/2 +75 BONUS Chapter 830 simply passed by the Stanton Hotel.

Mr.

Lloyd and Ms.

Rhodes must have misunderstood! Andrew raised an eyebrow, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

A misunderstanding? Youre probably right.

No, wait maybe Im just blind.

He continued with a smirk

Because what I saw last night was Mr.

MacAfee holding Ms.

Dickinson around the waist as the two left the hotel, laughing, flushed, and looking thoroughly entertained

But now that youve cleared it up, I must have been seeing things.

III make an appointment to have my eyes checked maybe theres something wrong with them! The other executives squirmed uncomfortably in their seats, unsure how to respond

Andrews words had taken the room to a strange and unsettling place.

They wanted to intervene but did not dare.

This was not just a pointed jab at Troy and Ruby it was a full blown exposé wrapped in sarcasm.

Even if Troy and Ruby had finalized their deal in a hotel room, there was no formal rule against it.

Some executives even envied Troy.

After all, Rubys curvaceous figure was jaw dropping her hourglass shape and striking features made her a showstopper.

For many, she was impossible to ignore.
