Katherine led the two men to Kendrick's office as Scarlett asked.
Coincidentally, Kendrick, who rarely came to Mornet, was in his office today.
As soon as the two men saw Kendrick, they immediately walked over. "Mr. Hopkins, it's been a long time.”
"Mr. Marquez, long time no see. How is your father?"
Maurice took his seat, thinking of what had just happened. His face was sullen. "Mr. Hopkins, who is Ms. Reed?"
Kendrick's expression changed slightly. " Ms. Reed is Suny’s confidant. She is quite nice. If she offended you, I apologize to you
for her."
Maurice and Noel looked at each other. Scarlett had a pretty face and a lovely figure.
Yet they came over today to talk about business. Kendrick had promised to invest in their company. They were just going through the motions.
Maurice knew that Kendrick was doing his father a favor. Maurice decided to let it pass. "In that case, forget it. Noel and I came today for the project that we talked about last time..."
As Maurice just said that, Noel handed Kendrick the document.
Kendrick took it. "Mr. Marquez, don't worry. As soon as our company has gone through the formalities, the money will be allocated to you."
Maurice nodded. If his card hadn't been frozen, he would have easily got four and a half million dollars.
"Then we'll rely on you, Mr. Hopkins."
Kendrick nodded and sent them out.
This news soon reached Scarlett. Hearing Katherine's words, Scarlett raised her eyebrows slightly. "Kendrick is always shrewd. Who are those two people?"
Katherine had just learned their background. "One of Fenton City’s councilmen seems to be a Marquez."
