Tom was on the verge of exploding with anger!

Jake had done nothing and yet he was appointed as the director? Based on what?!

But he understood that at this crucial stage of

cooperation, such a request for the Horton Group was just a small matter!

With so many executives watching, such a minor job transfer would inevitably be agreed to by Lewis!

How frustrating!

What was wrong with this Frankie Allen?! Even if the Davis family harbored resentment against the Horton family back then, shouldn’t it be aimed at the first branch of the family? Why was he always against

Lewis’s expression was calm. He had always been cool-minded, and his piercing gaze fixed on Frankie Allen. Slowly he said, “If I don’t agree, won’t Mr. Allen sign the deal?”

Lewis looked indifferent.

There were many people from the Horton Group in

The chill around Lewis seemed to fade a bit. “Let’s sign the contract first. Jake will be responsible for the future cooperation.”

Once Jake got things done, there would be a reason for his promotion to director. This was a verbal

Both sides were large corporate groups. Frankie Allen took a step back, and Lewis didn’t want to be overly aggressive.
