"Who told you that Hendrix is going to work with you?" I said harshly, not intending to give Jordan any leeway.

Was he trying to drag Hendrix down with him? I won't let that happen.

He had dirt on Hendrix, but not me. Since Hendrix and I were a unit, we should overcome these difficulties together. As long as one person remained clear-headed, those with evil intentions would never succeed.

"Is that so?" Jordan then glared at me, there was a hint of mockery in his voice. After sizing me up, he sat down calmly. He then leisurely took out his cigar and lit it up. He then said slowly, "Arianna, I'm afraid you've forgotten that the Roberts Group belongs to the Roberts, not the Reids."

There's no doubt that Hendrix was a very capable man. Given enough time, he could start up another company that will be on par with the Roberts Group.

But this still didn't make sense.
