When She Stops Playing Nice

Chapter 459

Ethan, who had been lounging with his legs crossed, immediately sat up straighter, and his expression turned grim when he saw Gina.

It wasn’t fear that made him change his posture, but a desire not to let her think he was still the same idle playboy he used to be, wanting to show that he was competent.

Kenneth Layne, the owner of YL Medtechs, was surprised to see Gina and greeted her quickly, “Miss Miller, hello. I apologize for the inconvenience as I’m quite busy at the moment and couldn’t greet you.”

He then turned to the manager, saying with a scolding tone, “What’s going on? Didn’t you take care of Miss Miller properly? How could you mess up such a simple task?”

The manager felt helpless because he couldn’t stop Gina just now, nor did he dare to. Offending such an important guest would do no good for the

company.

In that case, the boss would still blame him.

Before the manager could respond, Gina spoke first, “Mr. Layne, now should be the time for us to discuss the cooperation and inspect the equipment.”

Kenneth apologized again, “Miss Miller, I know, I’m very sorry, but I had no choice. Mr. Jackson was recommended by Ryder Leon, the boss of Scion Investment. Ryder has been a benefactor to me as I wouldn’t have been able to grow my medical equipment business here without his investment.

“Please understand my predicament, Miss Miller, Kenneth said as he stood up and made a gosture inviting her to sit. “Since you’re here, please come in and sit down. I have something to tell you.”

“Miss Miller, please,” the manager echoed.

Gina entered the office and sat on the sofa opposite Ethan.

She didn’t spare Ethan a glance, which made him visibly annoyed.

Ethan snorted internally, thinking, ‘Gina, there will be a time when you won’t be able to laugh”
