Once they reached their car, Bobby couldn't hold in his laughter any longer and laughed out loudly.
"What are you laughing at?" William asked expressionlessly.
"I'm laughing at how Hardy was scolded by Marcus in front of everyone.He must be really angry now”
"Marcus was indeed telling the truth.He really does put on airs and steal others away for himself" William sneered.
Thinking of how Valeria appeared at Hardy's office, William was frustrated even though he had the upper hand in the discussion earlier.
Hardy had still stolen his love away, so there was nothing for him to be happy about.
William sighed and ordered Bobby, "Let's go!"
After William left, Charles left Acma Corporation along with a group of people shortly after.
Hardy walked Charles and his assistant to the lift with a confident smile.
Once the lift doors closed, his smile immediately morphed into a malicious look as he turned back to his office.
Seeing that look on his face, Bevan followed him in fear.
He had been his assistant for years so he could tell by Hardy's expression that he was livid.It was normal for him to be.
After all, it was the first time he was threatened after so many years in Acma Corporation.
Besides, the person who threatened him was just a rich kid with a bad reputation.
Bevan complained silently.He didn't know what Hardy would do later anyway.
Ronald, who was waiting in the reception room, dashed out when he saw Hardy, "Mr.Anthony"
Coldness flashed in Hardy's eyes, and he looked at Ronald ghastly.Ronald shrank back when he saw his expression.He got tongue-tied, "Uh...Mr.Anthony, I have made an appointment with you yesterday"
Hardy did not speak, but only looked at Ronald coldly.
In the room, Valeria could see everything clearly and she felt embarrassed.
It seemed that Hardy wasn't interested in this collaboration at all.
She got up and walked out of the room.
When Hardy saw Valeria, the coldness in his expression disappeared.
His eyes were suddenly warm.
Thus, Ronald stopped faltering and said, "We agreed to discuss the details about the amusement park today.You have time, right?"
"Of course, please come in"
Hardy suddenly became very polite.
He even praised Valeria with a smile, "You look great today , Valeria"
Valeria felt a little embarrassed and she could only smile shyly.She didn't understand the change in his reaction.
How did his expression become so warm in just an instant? Could it be because the partnership with Howard Group didn't go as planned? He looked so angry while William looked nonchalant about it.
This was probably the difference between a CEO and an ordinary rich playboy who knew nothing.She despised William silently.
But soon, she felt sorry for him.
He had Hayden as a backup now, so he could do whatever he liked.
But if Hayden passed away, Charles would definitely make things hard for him.
And would his bad influences of friends, Richard and Michael, still be there for him as before? She started to worry about William's future.
Because of Valeria, Hardy went along with the proposal.
When Ronald told him that Valeria majored in design and she could assist in designing the amusement park, Hardy' s eyes glistened in excitement, "That's great.Valeria, you should come work at Acma Corporation to discuss the details with the other designers."
