Chapter 279

"What?" Ariel was amazed: "Absolutely not! How can you take this worthless man to Los Angeles with you? This time, you're going to a high-level gemstone convention, and you'll meet many influential people! Won't bringing him to disgrace you?"

"This Theophilus, who creates more problems than he solves, just recently offended the Millers at the Miller Corporation, forcing us to mend relations personally. He acts as though he's not at all involved." Ariel stated, clearly disgruntled: "Dulcie, if you take him to Los Angeles this time, who knows what big trouble he might cause for you!"

As she spoke, Ariel cast a frosty glance at Theophilus, saying: "You're quite clever, aren't you? You've offended the two major bosses at the Miller Corporation building and got scared, huh? Now you come looking for Dulcie, wanting her to take you to Los Angeles to avoid the storm? You know how to strategize."
