Chapter 11

Neville’s handsome face remained composed, showing no signs of being flustered. His voice had the steady confidence of someone used to calling the shots. “Loveille doesn’t have a solid foundation. Sure, it’s got a name for itself in a niche market, but it’s been treading water for the past three years. Honestly, it’s not really partnership material, Neville said.

Ryan chuckled. “You always wanted to poach Elianna, Loveille’s designer, for Fliwip. Why the change of heart now?”

“Elianna’s style is indeed refreshing, but a designer who hasn’t produced any works in the past three years is likely to be past their prime. She lacks any commercial value.”

Ryan half–jokingly remarked, “Or we could bring her in for other purposes. I heard that the mysterious Ms. Atkins is young and beautiful. Aren’t you getting a divorce soon? You might consider it.”

Neville’s eyes exuded a cold and ruthless aura as he said, “Ryan, Aidan’s birthday is around the corner. Do you want me to tell him about the shady things you’ve been up to?”

Ryan immediately begged for mercy. “Neville, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have imposed my dirty thoughts on you.”

“As for Elianna, you can deal with her however you want, but Loveille cannot be our partner,” Neville said firmly.

Ryan tossed Loveille’s bidding proposal into the trash, saying, “Actually, I had high hopes for Loveille. Now that it’s been eliminated, the only option left is the Conner Group.”

In the meeting room, it was just Madison and Alison. With no audience present, Alison no longer felt the need to maintain the facade of being a good person. She had an air of arrogance and disdain, saying, “Seems like I gave Loveille too much credit. I figured even without Elianna, they’d rope in some industry hotshot. Never guessed they’d pull you in.”

In Alison’s eyes, Madison was uneducated, Ross bringing her here was probably because he was infatuated with her.

Madison wasn’t bothered. She just smiled and touched her slender fingers, saying, “Miss Conner, are you trying to educate me on meddling in other people’s business?”

Alison sneered, “Oh, I almost forgot. Regina said that you cook well and your cleaning skills are excellent. It’s said to be even better than a maid. This could be considered an advantage. If you don’t mind, I can help you find a housekeeping company. I’m sure you can showcase your talents.
