Rebirth: We Split Ways.. novel Chapter 117

"I'll call and ask," the assistant said and pulled out her cell phone but was stopped by Director Howard.

"No need. Let's wait a little longer!"

It was only after about an hour that Dominic arrived late with his assistant, Lanny.

"Mr. Archer! Long time no see!" Director Howard took the initiative to welcome him with a fawning smile.

Dominic's deep face did not reveal a trace of excess emotion, making it impossible to guess what he was actually thinking.

"Director Howard, you must be waiting a long time."

"No problem, I've just arrived as well! But Mr. Meyer hasn't arrived yet, so let's chat while we wait."

With that, Director Howard took the initiative to pull out a chair for Dominic. "Mr. Archer, please sit!"

He sat down, his long legs folded in a casual stance.

"Mr. Archer, it's a great honor to have you here today."

"Director Howard! Let's talk business. If you have something to say, just say it." Lanny, who was on the side, spoke up straight away.

Director Howard smiled. "Mr. Archer is really discerning. I invited you out here today to ask for something."

Only then did Dominic open his mouth. "Oh, Director Howard, as one of the directors of Diamoson Corp., by definition, you have nothing to do with the Archer Corporation. I wonder what matters you want us to talk about?"

Director Howard did not hide anything anymore and said bluntly, "It's like this, Mr. Archer… You also know that our newly appointed president, Penelope Reed, is also your ex-wife."

"Director Howard is really playing a good game!" Dominic's words carried a hint of mockery.

Director Howard, who was immersed in his own world, did not hear it at all, but instead said, "In this way, not only will I win the bet against her, but you, Mr. Archer, will also be able to let out your anger towards her. It's like killing two birds with one stone!"

As soon as the words fell, the door of the private room was violently pushed open, and the air instantly condensed.

Director Howard had not reacted yet. He just raised his eyes and instantly froze in place.

Only to see that Penelope was actually standing at the entrance of the private room and was staring at him with a deep look on her face.

"Director Howard, it seems like I came at a bad time!" Her words sounded light, but they scared Director Howard into a cold sweat.

"You?! Why are you here?"
