Chapter 66
Mackenzie gave Emmanuel a call, only to discover that his phone was
turned off.
“Sure enough, he’s an idiot! He doesn’t even realize that his phone has
died!”
Unadulterated anxiety gripped her.
The project was exceedingly important, and their competitor, Verkade
Group, had set their sights on it.
If that project were to succeed, Terence Group would be nabbing a huge
contract worth a billion from Verkade Group in the next year.
For that reason, Verkade Group were determined to see them fail.
Perhaps Samuel and his men had even been incited to make trouble for
Terence Group back then. Unfortunately for them, Terence Group had
managed to resolve the problem.
Mackenzie and Terence Group were currently on their guard against
Verkade Group in everything. Hence, the latter could not do anything to
sabotage things.
While the mistaken logo would not affect any operations, Mackenzie was
worried that Verkade Group would use it as a pretext to attack Terence
Group and make clients lose confidence in the company.
As far as she knew, Verkade Group’s CEO, Gautier Verkade, was a piece of
trash who did not mind using all sorts of despicable means. Thus, the
matter could never be allowed to get to his knowledge. Otherwise, he
would definitely seize the opportunity to make a mountain out of a
molehill.
At worst, we’ll do away with the strategic warehouse’s logo unveiling on
the day of the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
She was presently frantic to look for Emmanuel because she feared that
he would make a huge deal out of the matter resulting in it becoming
public knowledge. By then, it would be difficult for her to deal with the fallout.
Meanwhile, Emmanuel and Milani had arrived at the bar.
As soon as they lifted their eyes, they were greeted by the words “Pink
Zone” on a big neon signboard. It was incredibly eye-catching.
The bar was filled with suggestive and risqué undertones. Besides, its
business was flourishing.
“Hmph! Yoel, that b*stard, is pretty good at picking a place to relax!” Milani
could not help scoffing.
Yoel Larson was the name of the craftsman from Cloud Construction.
Emmanuel had once met him during the meeting previously. He wore
gla*ses and appeared to be quite an honest man.
He shouldn’t be such a kind of person. Oh well, it’s difficult to conclude that.
As the saying goes, don’t judge a book by its cover.
Taking the lead, Emmanuel stepped into the bar.
With a snort, Milani followed.
The bar was not as luxurious as they had imagined, but the atmosphere
was exceedingly amorous and could spark the lust of young couples.
On top of that, the female servers had stunning figures and were dressed
in diverse costumes and silk stockings of various colors. Verily, they were
all striking.
That went doubly true for the bar hostesses. Anything they wore
underneath would be bared with just a tilt of their bottoms.
“What a perv!” Milani sneered. Only when Emmanuel turned to her did she
deliberately clarify, “Hmph! I wasn’t talking about you but Yoel!”
Emmanuel merely shrugged. If it were not for business issues, he did not
even want to speak with her.
In no time, they found Yoel.
Unexpectedly, the man was seated in a booth. There were neither women
nor men around him.
Emmanuel noticed that his gaze was fixed in a particular direction, and he
did not even notice their presence when they had walked up to him from
behind.
Following his gaze, Emmanuel spotted a slender figure.
Ah, it turns out that he’s secretly eyeballing a beauty.
In the next second, the beauty in a black and white maid costume turned
around. A single glance at her astounded him as well.
The woman was in her early twenties with exquisite features, fair skin, and
outstanding looks.
Her jet-black hair was pinned back with a plain hairpin, and she exuded
innocence. Her crystalline eyes sparkled like stars in the night sky.
Other than his wife, Mackenzie, he had never seen such a beautiful girl.
Her maid costume was the bar’s uniform, but it was the most conservative
among the female servers.
Even so, it accentuated her alluring curves. Nonetheless, the most
attractive part of her was her long and slender legs encased in silk
