Chapter 140 Reluctant Apology
Wendy couldn’t help but think that Grace had strong tactics to have managed to gain Xander’s support so quickly.
It was no wonder that her cousin, Yvonne, had mentioned Grace’s interference in her relationship with Benjamin.
She thought, “Yvonne was right. This woman isn’t easy to deal with.”
With these thoughts in mind, she reluctantly humbled herself and quickly offered an apology. “I’m sorry, Mr. Fulton. I shouldn’t have said that. Please forgive me.‘
However, Xander replied, “I’m not the one you should apologize to, Ms. Gardner.”
Wendy was flabbergasted, for she couldn’t bring herself to apologize to Grace.
In her eyes, it was Grace’s fault that the Quines had gone bankrupt and Yvonne had been imprisoned. She had come here today to teach Grace a lesson.
“Mr. Fulton, I …”
Xander stared at her and rhythmically tapped the table with his fingers. The atmosphere in the
room became tense.
His patience had its limits. Seeing Wendy’s hesitation to apologize, he stood up and adjusted his jacket.
“In that case, there’s no need for today’s meeting. This project isn’t a must for Futurelink
anyway.”
“No, please!” Wendy hurriedly stopped him.
Her company had invested billions in the new nanotechnology project, and if she botched it, she could lose her job.
“I’m sorry, Ms. Lewis,” she said with all the strength she could muster. She couldn’t afford to lose her job.
Grace wasn’t particularly forgiving, but given the importance of the collaboration between the two companies, losing the project because of Wendy’s attitude wasn’t worth it.

Seeing Xander defend her, a feeling of emptiness surged through him, as if something that had once belonged to him had been taken away.
Seeing this scene from the side, Larry couldn’t help but feel anxious for Benjamin.
For some reason, he had a sense of foreboding that there was no turning back between Benjamin and Grace.
“Sorry for the delay, everyone. I rushed over here as soon as I finished the other meeting,” Nexa Group’s president, Alvin Leroy, said apologetically.
