Chapter <b>310 </b>


    Xander rejected expressionlessly upon hearing her suggestion. “No, she can’t take this over.”


    Yvonne said, “Why not? Do any of you have experience in the business field? Mel is a former employee of LeapCo.”


    Puzzled, Mnie asked, “Do you guys need my help?”


    “Yes,” Yvonne blurted out without thinking twice. She then exined to Mnie, “It’s because of Mr. Emerson. It must be him. We heard Dreamcatchers is looking for business partners, and Mr. Emerson introduced manypanies to them.


    “The department contacted Xander to talk about the cooperation. They were trying to ask Xander to reconsiderpeting with Dreamcatchers.”


    Xander was still calm even after Yvonne said that.


    Mnie pondered before saying, “They aren’t doing this for the benefit of all. It’s a trap to get us to sacrifice our benefits for theirs.”


    “What can we do about it?” Oliver looked serious. He knocked on the table with his knuckles and spoke in displeasure, “These people in Jepton are bullies. My family isn’t in Jepton. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be treating us like this.”


    Yvonne lifted her eyebrow. “It’s pointless for your family to go against them. They have manypanies.”


    After the exnation, Mnie understood what they meant and asked, “Do you mean that if we have more business partners, our chance wouldn’t be snatched by others?”


    She was also in the business field. She naturally knew a project linked with the government was a rare opportunity. It would benefit them a lot.


    “Not totally. But at least, we wouldn’t be in such a passive state.”


    Mnie pondered and wanted to speak, yet Xander said, “You don’t have to worry about this.”


    “Don’t worry?” Yvonne muttered. “I think Emerson is up to no good by asking you to meet him tomorrow.”


    Mnie caught the point. “Quentin wants to meet you tomorrow?”


    Xander nodded.


    A glimpse of untraceable emotion shed across her eyes. She said, “I’ll go with you tomorrow.”


    Quentin was an annoying person in all aspects.


    He was despicable and always used dirty means to get what he wanted.


    Moreover, from what Quentin told her during the conference, Mnie could not stop thinking Quentin might be doing this to Xander because he wanted to avenge her.


    Xander still disagreed. “You’re busy.”


    Mnie recalled she still had not told Xander about Albert’s surgery. She was always out of the

    house recently and seldom bumped into him.


    Aforting smile appeared on her face. “It’s okay. My grandfather’s surgery has been arranged for this Friday.”


    Xander’s gaze turned gloomy before he hid his emotions and said, “That’s great.”


    Since Quentin’s meeting with them was settled, Mnie headed to her room.


    However, just as she washed up, she received a call from a stranger.


    Mnie answered the call, yet no one spoke. Instead, she heard a sharp shattering sound.


    She called out a few times and looked at the area code of the phone number. It was from Hearth City.


    Mnie immediately realized it was a call from George.


    Without hesitating, Mnie hung up the call. Then, she blocked the number.


    Meanwhile, the drunk man heard the call being hung up, and his expression turned ferocious before he kicked the little girl before him.
