Yvette frowned. “Why did they suspend cooperation with us? Have we worked with them before?”
Zane shook his head.
“No, but they have a large-scale laboratory that makes a new drug. Previously, Mr. Sheldon got in touch with them, but I haven’t met them yet. That’s why I made an appointment for tonight, but the other party suddenly canceled…”
Yvette was annoyed.
If Sheldon Corporation wanted to get involved in the pharmaceutical industry, they could cooperate with this laboratory. It was much better than acquiring that fake drug manufacturer with a bad reputation.
If that was the case, the shareholders could not refute her.
Yvette looked up at Zane.
“Do you know where the other party is?”
Zane raised his eyebrows and said firmly, “Yes.”
Yvette’s eyes flickered slightly. She smiled.
Zane had always been very attentive and capable. Otherwise, Lance would not arrange for Zane to be Yvette’s assistant.
At night, Yvette changed into a decent dress and followed Zane.
Surprisingly, the place Zane brought her to turned out to be the nightclub where she had tried to escape with all her might.
It was the same place where the old master’s birthday party was held.
Yvette sat in the car and looked at the lights outside the window. The memories she made there were haunting her like a nightmare.
Her face paled a little.
She did not want to touch that memory again, but this place would never disappear.
Her heart pounded violently in horror, and her body was stiff.
Zane noticed that Yvette, who had always been confident and bold, suddenly looked so defeated.
However, it only lasted for a few seconds.
Zane did not know what was going on, but he reminded her.
“Ms. Quimbey, that partner originally made an appointment with us here to talk business, but they temporarily canceled our appointment and met with someone else. According to my inquiries, he didn’t get a refund for the private room. This means that he’s probably still in the same location.”
Yvette’s face was hidden in the shadows, so it was hard to see her expression clearly.
Her change in expression was also very subtle.
To go, or not to go?
Yvette was deliberating her choices, and she felt terrified.
Sean’s sinister face appeared in her mind again.
However, in a blink of an eye, she suddenly thought about Lance who was lying on the hospital bed.
Then, her thoughts drifted to the unscrupulous shareholders in the conference room earlier today.
If she did not go, could she escape forever?
Sheldon Corporation needed this opportunity, so she must fight for it.
Otherwise, Zeke would do something against the company’s interests.
Yvette did not want to see Sheldon Corporation turn into a shell company when Lance returned after he was fully recovered.
Sheldon Corporation got to its current position because of Lance’s conscientiousness and hard work.
Thinking of this, Yvette became more determined.
So what if the meeting was at this nightclub?
Would she avoid this place in the future?
Moreover, Yvette had already escaped for so many days and she was perfectly fine.
Yvette thought about it, took a deep breath, and took out the earrings that Nicole had given her from her bag. She put on those earrings and pushed the car door open.
She did not know why she did this.
It was just a subconscious act to stay vigilant. She must not let her guard down.
Yvette looked calm as she got out of the car. Zane then took a breath and followed her.
He gave the car keys to the valet and opened the door for Yvette.
“Ms. Quimbey, the partner booked a private room on the 9th floor. I’ve reserved the room next to it, so no one will stop us.”
He did this to avoid any embarrassment of being stopped by a waiter.
This was not a problem for Yvette.
Yvette was dressed in a low-profile business suit that was no less than six figures, so anyone with a discerning eye would know that she was not there to create trouble.
For a while, Zane felt that he did this for nothing.
However, Yvette still gave him a look of appreciation and encouragement.
