Rebirth: We Split Ways.. novel Chapter 148

"But thanks to you for taking precautions and showing me the information about nanotechnology first."

Otherwise, there was a real possibility that she would have been embarrassed by Winona and made a fool of herself at the meeting.

"Ryan, are we still going to work with Yale Tech on this project?"

He stretched out his hand and rubbed her head. His eyes were soft as if he was looking at a beloved treasure. "What do you think?"

"Agreements are agreements. Personal grudges are personal grudges! Public and private issues must always be separated."

Ryan gave a light hmmm, then said, "Yes, then it depends on Yale Tech's sincerity. But Penny, can I discuss one thing with you?"

She raised her eyes and looked at her. They were like a pool of water, clear as day. Ryan obviously felt his heart beating hard in his chest.

There were some words that had to be said after all.

"Can you call me by my nickname instead?"

Penelope's expression was dumbfounded for a moment, then revealed a big question mark, before she could open her mouth, Ryan continued, "Call me Rye from now on!"

Penelope's eyes flashed with a flash of surprise, "Rye?"

Ryan was satisfied with how he mentioned his name. "Well, that's it."

Penelope, however, felt very uncomfortable.

They had grown up together since they were young, and the name Ryan had long formed a habit in her mind, carved into her brain, and it would be difficult to change suddenly.

"But it's a bit uncomfortable."

"Then you can slowly adapt. One day, you’ll get used to it."

Ryan said, between his eyebrows and eyes stretched out, obviously in a good mood. "Let's go, I'll send you home."

Saying this, Ryan took the initiative to hold her hand. His palm was very wide and thick, and its warmth was unlike the coldness that Dominic had brought to her, making her subconsciously want to draw her hand back.

Lanny spoke cautiously. "Mr. Archer, no one is a saint without faults. What's in the past is in the past. If you really want to win back Ms. Reed, just show your sincerity. I think Ms. Reed's heart isn't made of stone and will definitely be touched by your sincerity."

These words ignited a small flame in Dominic's heart.

"You mean it?"

Lanny could not bear to douse his hopes. "It's just that, Mr. Archer, there's something I'd still like to say. Between you and Ms. Reed being married for these three years, there are a lot of loose ends that haven't been dealt with properly, especially... Ms. Mendez! After all, you and Ms. Mendez once had a child. Ms. Reed may not be able to let it go!"

When these words came out…

Dominic's eyes instantly darkened.

He could not help but laugh to himself.

"Do you think she would care?"
