“Did something happen?” Jeremy asked directly. Ken nodded and pointed at the office.
“That guy named Carter Gray is here.”
Jeremy lifted his alluring eyes slightly. “He barged into the office?”
“The receptionist had just gone to the toilet, so she didn’t notice him, and he just came in, ” Ken explained.
Jeremy nodded to show that he understood, then strode into the office.
Carter was here for Jeremy, so when he heard the footsteps outside the door, he turned his chair and looked in the direction of the door.
When he saw Jeremy, Carter said in a mocking tone, “Are you done with your meeting, Mr. Whitman? I’ve been waiting for you for some time.”
Jeremy peered at Carter coldly before walking carefreely to the desk.
“Let’s not beat around the bush. Just spit it out.”
Jeremy was straightforward.
Carter’s lips pressed together into a smirk. It seemed that he was impressed with Jeremy’s carefree attitude.
Carter, too, straightforwardly stated his purpose. “I know Whitman Corporation is trying to get a collaboration project with ZF. You know better than anyone the benefits you’ll get once it’s successful. Of course, I want to tell you that I won’t let you succeed.”
Carter smirked confidently. “Jeremy, from now on, you’d better be alert all the time. I won’t let my child die in vain.”
After saying that, Carter got up to leave carefreely.
Ken, who had been standing at one side for a while, had a confused and disdainful expression as he stared at Carter’s back figure.
“Mr. Whitman, what does he mean by that?”
“His goal is not the project from ZF.” Jeremy already saw through Carter.
