Chapter 31 Trouble Comes Knocking

“Alright.”

At Snow Group, Nevin showed up without an appointment and was stopped by the receptionist in the lobby.

After finishing his meeting, Roderick received a call from the front desk informing him that Nevin had personally come to request a meeting. He immediately let out a cold laugh.

“Tell him I’m in a meeting. He can wait if he wants!”

Roderick hung up the phone. He thinks he can upset my daughter and just show up here?

On the first floor, the receptionist put down the phone and smiled politely. “Mr. Blackwell, Mr. Snow is still in a meeting. If you’re not in a rush, you can wait in the reception area.”

Nevin glanced at his watch.

As a CEO, his schedule was packed, but the partnership with Snow Group took priority.

“Alright.”

The receptionist led them into the elevator and showed them to the reception area on the 25th floor before leaving.

Joe followed beside Nevin as the two settled into the reception area.

After sitting for two minutes, Joe realized something was off.

How come no one had brought them coffee?

Snow Group’s staff couldn’t be that unprofessional, could they?

Five minutes, ten minutes, 20 minutes….

Joe watched Nevin’s expressionless face. He wanted to say something but thought better of it. Had Snow Group simply forgotten about them?

“Mr. Blackwell, let me go check.”

Nevin’s expression darkened.

Understanding the situation, Joe stepped out and searched around until he grabbed an employee to ask. They knew nothing.

He ran back downstairs to question the receptionist.

The receptionist made a show of placing a call. “I’m sorry, Mr. Snow is still in his meeting. If you’re pressed for time, feel free to leave.”

Joe had no choice but to return to the reception area and relay the receptionist’s message.

Nevin forced himself to wait another 30 minutes before leaving Snow Group with Joe.

Snow Group wasn’t testing their sincerity about the partnership-they simply didn’t want him there.

It was as if they had a personal grudge against Nevin.

What company forgets to serve coffee or tea to their guests?

Let alone a corporation as large as Snow Group.

Back at Blackwell Group, Joe discovered that Snow Group was hosting an event soon, reportedly for their successor.

Other companies and corporations had all received invitations from Snow Group. Only Blackwell Group hadn’t.

Nevin was certain now that Snow Group held some kind of misunderstanding about him or Blackwell Group.

Nevin’s fingertips tapped lightly on the desk. “Joe, find out why Snow Group is targeting us. Also, get us two invitations to Snow Group’s event.”

Because his plan to meet Roderick fell through, Nevin had ended up wasting over an hour. In the midst of his urgent work, he suddenly received a call from the school.

It was only 3 p.m., nowhere near dismissal time.

Nevin frowned, quite surprised the school would call him.

After all, it used to be Demi who handled taking care of Orion.

“Hello, am I speaking to Orion’s father?

“Orion got into a fight at school. We need you to come right away.”

“A fight?”

Nevin’s heart tightened. “How is Orion?”
