Chapter 377

Cordy had a hunch about what John was going to say.

Even if her partnership with Patrick Stuart hadn't been publicized, all insiders were aware since news of it had spread through alternative outlets. In fact, it actually drew some controversy amongst the business folk.

Of all things, the great house of Stuart actually chose to partner with Cordy’s small enterprise!

If anything, they should be choosing an enterprise like Levine Ventures, whose riches seemed to have no limit.

But the deed was already done, and now everyone just had to wait and see what comes of it.

"Come in," Cordy said, opening the door.

John followed her inside; he took a seat on the couch and went straight to the point, "Why would you choose to partner with Patrick Stuart?"

"It's a perfect coincidence of opportunity and merit," Cordy said, as formal as she was honest.

John snorted. ' Don't you know what's happening amongst the Stuarst at the moment?”

Cordy shrugged. "All I know is that I only stand to gain this partnership.”
