Chapter 121

As soon as Catlin saw Stephanie, her expression darkened.

Stephanie’s face was cold, and she didn’t even spare her a second glance.

However, behind her, Elliot’s expression was stormy.

Stephanie walked right past Catlin without a word, but Grace, noticing her, opened her mouth as if to say something

“Go to Harrington Global immediately. Meet with their CEO and find out why they want to end the partnership.”

Harrington Global had been one of the Hart Group’s best partners.
