“Mr. Terry seems to be not available for business discussions?” Dennis was getting a bit impatient.
“Ms. Spence, what’s wrong?” Jolie asked.
Ever since Marie heard Dennis on the video call, something seemed off. Jolie could sense that Marie
had suddenly become like a hedgehog, as if she had instantly put up all her defenses.
And now, Marie was not only like a hedgehog, but also like a cat that had its tail stepped on. She was
scared, yet wanted to pounce and take a bite. Clenching her fists, she trembled.
Upon hearing Jolie’s words, Dennis looked up and glanced at Marie.
Her small face was pale, devoid of any color, her eyes filled with fear and determination. She gritted
her teeth, staring intently at the computer in his hand, as if she was about to pounce on it and devour it
the very next second.
Dennis hadn’t planned on paying any attention to Marie. Ever since the day they had their inexplicable
clash, he simply thought of her as an interesting young girl, not worth his time and
effort.
However, now, Marie’s current state left him with no choice but to worry.
Dennis stood up, walked over to Marie, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Marie bit her lip tightly without speaking, or perhaps, she didn’t even hear what he was saying.
Jolie looked at Marie, feeling a bit anxious. She mustered up the courage and said, “Mr. Whitney, could
you please call Doc. Hart back? Ms. Spence doesn’t seem quite right.”
Dennis reached out and placed his hand on Marie’s shoulder, asking, “Marie, what’s wrong?”
Upon this contact, he could feel that Marie was trembling slightly, as if she was holding back
immense fear.
Marie steadied herself and said, “It’s okay, I’m fine.”
Dennis frowned, not liking the way Marie was acting. Despite her young age, she seemed to be hiding
many things and carrying a lot of burdens. No matter how bad her mood or how emotional she
became, she would only say, “I’m fine.”
Last time, it was like this when I returned to the hotel from the small alley, and this time, it’s the
same.
Dennis felt a wave of irritation. Since the young girl said everything was fine, there was no need for
him to worry.
Dennis walked back to the couch, sat down, picked up his laptop, and continued the video call he

Marie snapped back to reality, focusing intently on the content of Dennis’s video call.
Dennis and Wren’s father discussed their collaborative project, not mentioning a word about the recent
incident where both families fought over a shipment of goods. Marie had dealt with many businessmen
like this, who, regardless of how much sabotage they had done behind the scenes,
could still smile and cooperate with you on the surface.
Dennis seems to be working with the Terry Group on the electronic industry in the French market.
He wants to enter the French market, and collaborating with the Terry family is a wise choice. The Terry
family is a prestigious American family in France, with a large and successful business, and
naturally, they have an extensive network of connections.
However, the Whitney family is not a pushover either. As an influential noble family in New York.
with substantial power, the Terry Group can certainly make a big it through their collaboration.
Dennis seemed quite upset about the Terry Group’s sabotage during
stencounter, which
resulted in him losing some of his possessions. As a result,
ut the video conference, he
maintained a dismissive attitude, half–heartedly engaging with the Terry Group.
After discussing for quite a while, they still couldn’t reach a conclusion. Dennis said, “I have some
matters to attend to on my end. Let’s talk about it next time.”
Andrew carefully agreed and said, “How about 8 o’clock tomorrow night, Mr. Whitney?”
Dennis nodded, agreeing to it.
After hanging up the video call, Marie was deep in thought. Tomorrow night at eight o’clock would be
morning in France. She had to do something; she couldn’t let Terry Group sign the contract so easily.
She hesitated before standing up and glanced at Dennis. The man seemed to have no intention of
paying her any attention, so she tentatively asked, “Do you not want to cooperate with Terry Group?”
Dennis glanced up at her and with pursed lips, uttered two words: “Top secret.”
To hell with the secrets!
Last time, Cullen said that intercepting the goods was a secret! But what happened? This man still
ended up telling her everything in detail!
Is it confidential now?
So, it was all because of that inexplicable quarrel right outside their home?
Marie swore, she had never seen such a vengeful man!

But what could she do when circumstances forced her hand? She wanted to know the news about
Terry Group, and going through Dennis was the quickest way. Biting her teeth, she swallowed her
pride and said, “Actually, I never wanted to be a star…”
Dennis didn’t even look up. “Ms. Spence’s career has nothing to do with me.”
Damn! Is this guy really not getting the hint? She’s already said it like this, what more does he
want? Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Marie got angry. I’m not serving you anymore, Miss
Isn’t it just news from the Terry Group? I can find out for myself, and it’s not like I’d be much slower.
Who needs you, Dennis!
Marie sprang to her feet and said, “Jolie, let’s go!”
Jolie nodded and immediately opened the office door, allowing Marie to leave. As Marie took her first
step, Dennis’s voice came from behind her, “I want to collaborate, but it doesn’t have to be
with Terry Group.”
Marie felt a surge of anger welling up in her chest, and she knew that one day, Dennis would be the
death of her!
