Chloe didn't pay much attention to it, retracting her hand and continuing to look at her phone.

She didn't know what this woman was here for, but since the person in charge hadn't shown up yet, she didn't bother with pleasantries. The door opened again from the outside, and a figure in formal attire appeared at the entrance. "Ms. Nelson, would you please come with me?" Chloe had never been to this company before and didn't realize that negotiating a deal here was so complicated.

Nevertheless, she got up and followed.

The person led her out of the conference room and straight downstairs. "Excuse me, when will your chairman finish the meeting?"

"Ms. Nelson, our chairman will be a while longer. So, to ensure you have a comfortable wait, the chairman has prepared a lounge for you." Chloe raised an eyebrow. If they were preparing a lounge, it probably wouldn't be over for at least an hour or two.

She didn't like spending a lot of time on negotiations because even if she took on a project, she could usually finish it within four hours.

But now, just waiting would take an hour or two, which she felt was a waste of time.

However, since she was already here, it would be even more of a loss if she went back now.

Reluctantly, she went to the lounge.

Her phone buzzed with a message notification. She picked it up and saw it was a text from Michael.
