249 Penny's literal headache

"Are you sure you didn't try to screw me over through Sven?" Atlas held the driver's door before Penny could get in. "I won't get angry."

Penny studied his face and could almost see the horns sprouting from the top of his head. He'll definitely get angry. He seemed ready. "That cousin of yours is lying through his teeth," Penny scoffed. "Why would I do business with someone like that?"

When Penny helped Haines and Charles resolve an issue in the company, she learned a valuable lesson that day: if she was going to do something, it was best to keep it private. That's why only a few people knew the person behind Prime Group.

"That's a lot of nerve on his part." Atlas shook his head, pleased that his sister wasn't trying to give him a headache. "If you say so, then fine."

"First Brother, do you want me to screw him up?"

"No. Sven is crucial to the company. Let him be."

Penny frowned. "Are you going to let him get all the credit?"

"The company's success is also ours."

"What a bummer." Penny pouted, clicking her tongue with a sigh. "Fine, fine. But I'm not doing business with him. The only reason Global Prime Logistics is at the top of my list is because of you. I'm not negotiating with him."

"I understand, Atlas nodded. "Go now. Do you have plans today?"

"I'm going to the building. Nina's there."

"Okay."

Penny turned to leave but paused, looking back at him. "First Brother, you're Charles Bennet's eldest son. Don't let that cousin of yours push you around."
