My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1619

I had no comment on that, as anything was possible at this point. I replied, "Well, I'm open to the idea."

Strangely, I was not angry. Instead, I smiled. This was probably what people meant when they said that no acquaintance is made without a fight. Even though Sean was just a representative of the GW Group, not the owner, I felt proud of myself for being able to refuse him more than once.

At first, GW Group failed to partner with Roberts Group. Then, they started to plot against Irvin. They didn't want to return empty-handed. If they really set their eyes on Granger Group after all this, I would be their next target.
