Chapter 279

Negotiations with Teague went off without a hitch.

Two days later, both parties had signed the contract. Teague had other commitments and left PrimeStar.

After a long day, Charlene and Stewart headed back to the conference room, picked up some drinks, and took a moment to relax. Just then, Chester walked in and dumped a thick stack of invitations on the table. “Here are the invitations for the end–of–year parties we’ve gotten over the last few days,” he announced.

There were at least twenty or thirty invitations stacked up.

Invitations from Dalton, Granger, The Henderson Group, and Neural Nexus Tech were among them.

Charlene and Stewart sifted through the pile and noticed that the Hawkins family had also sent an invitation.

What caught their attention was that the invitation from the Hawkins family was addressed to both Stewart and Charlene.

Leaning casually against the conference table, Stewart held the Hawkins family invitation, chuckling. “Seems like our company has quite the charm.”

It wasn’t so much the charm of their company as it was the allure of their latest two projects and CUAP that had the Hawkins family hooked.

So much so that the Hawkins family was willing to humble themselves by including Charlene’s name on the

invitation.
