Chapter 49 Are You Afraid Now

“Ms. Lewis, you sure are pretty skilled at riding.”

Albert praised Grace, and his gaze was sincere with no intent to offend.

Grace glanced briefly at Benjamin, who was standing beside them. She turned to Albert and said, “Mr. Barnes, could we find a place to talk alone?”

Barnes Group was a company that focused on core technology development.

In the five years since its establishment, it had developed countless innovative, intelligent bionic robots, and it had received praise from various fields.

This time, the nanorobot technology was an unprecedented technological breakthrough and could potentially solve historically difficult problems in medical care.

That was why Grace had wanted to negotiate this collaboration after she had taken up her new post at Amirate.

Benjamin’s gaze darkened, and he sounded displeased. “Barnes Group has already signed a contract with Hawkins Group. What is there that cannot be spoken about openly?”

His gaze never left Grace. From the moment she had ridden the horse over, she had completely captured his attention.

Grace had never ridden in front of him. In fact, she had never even mentioned it.
