Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 343

Because Noreen couldn’t match Bianca in ability, she resorted to underhanded tactics to achieve her goals.

With someone so calculating and manipulative, how could the kind-hearted Claire possibly compete with her?

If the timing hadn’t been so delicate, Henry would have marched right over to warn Castle not to fall for Noreen’s tricks.

Suppressing his unease, Henry sought out Mrs. Joyner’s assistant and explained his intentions.

He wanted to speak with Mrs. Joyner about the merger deal.

The assistant apologized, saying Mrs. Joyner was meeting with an important guest and wasn’t available at the moment.

“That’s alright, I can wait. However long it takes,” Henry replied, determined to show his sincerity.

Henry had come to Glenhaven City with a single goal: to secure the acquisition of Centribo and break into the chip industry.

Centribo was a local tech firm specializing in semiconductors.

Mrs. Joyner owned a stake in the company.

In recent years, Centribo had been struggling against Ascendancy Group, losing market share and posting losses for three consecutive years.

Mrs. Joyner was considering a merger as a way to restructure and find a new direction for Centribo.

This information wasn’t public yet.

Henry had only learned about it through one of his father’s connections.

That was why he wanted to get a head start, to approach Mrs. Joyner before more competitors entered the fray, and convince her to let Brooke Group join the merger.

He was confident he could turn Centribo around and give Ascendancy Group a run for their money.

And when that happened, he was sure Claire would finally look at him differently.

He wasn’t sure why, but that thought suddenly brought to mind one of Noreen’s biting remarks:

“Is that what you’re wearing? Trying to be Seth now, Mr. Brooke? Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I suppose.”
