Chapter 172

My Standing Is a Hundred Times Better On the way back in her car, beside herself with anger, Anna called her mother and said in annoyance, “Mom, I want you to tell Dad to stop collaborating with that Constellation Tech! They’re in cahoots with that skank!” Taken aback, Anna’s mother replied, “Anna, what are you talking about?” Anna looked extremely irked. “Aren’t we collaborating with that sh*t of a company?

With the awkwardness between them gradually disappearing after Zoe had left them alone, they enjoyed their conversation. Just then, Oscar and his friends came out of the private room and noticed a familiar figure by the window.
