"You mean Penelope is going to Seattle!"
Mr. Harris, upon hearing this news, became visibly excited, his eyes lighting up. "Now that Penelope is back in the country, should we proceed with the marriage arrangement we discussed between our families?"
Vincent's tone remained indifferent. Regarding this matter, he wasn't as enthusiastic as Mr. Harris. "It depends on the preferences of the two individuals involved. After all, the ones getting married are them."
Mr. Harris understood Vincent's implicit meaning very well.
He was well aware of his son's character.
Being the only child after many years, Andrew has been pampered since childhood.
Although there hadn't been major issues during his tenure as the Harris Corporation's president, his lifestyle of partying, dating, and reckless behavior didn't align with the standards Vincent expected for his brother-in-law.
In the entire Reed family, Penelope was the only daughter, showered with immeasurable affection. Vincent couldn't easily entrust his sister to this wayward young man.
Penelope, the girl he had seen, was attractive and had a good complexion and personality. She was the ideal candidate for a daughter-in-law.
It seemed like it was time to send that troublesome boy to Seattle. Reminding him to seize the opportunity was necessary.
As he thought about discussing this matter with Andrew, Mr. Harris immediately stood up to bid farewell, and Vincent followed suit.
Back in the hall.
Penelope emerged from the study.
"Are you planning to send me to Seattle?"
Vincent's brows furrowed. "Yes, you are familiar with Seattle, and it's most suitable for you to handle the strategic deployment. Whether you stay at the headquarters or go to the Seattle branch, the decision is yours."
Penelope's eyes gleamed with confidence. "I choose to go to the Seattle branch."
Vincent reminded her, "If you choose to work in Seattle, you must prioritize the interests of the Diamoson Corp.. Don't let personal matters affect your performance.
He was primarily considering the recent conflicts with Dominic. He won't go easy on the subsidiaries of the Diamoson Corp. upon his return to Seattle. The competition between our two companies will only increase."
Vincent would have respected her decision if Penelope hadn't been willing.
Understanding Vincent's concerns, Penelope knew that she carried the subsidiary's future on her shoulders.
"Rest assured. I've agreed to go to Seattle with the development of Diamoson Corp. in mind. The recent promotion to the position of Chief Assistant has caused dissatisfaction within the group. I'll establish a solid foundation in the branch, achieve success, and then move to the headquarters."
Satisfied, Vincent nodded. "If you understand all this, there's nothing for me to worry about."
This time, he had undoubtedly lost in Dubai.
Thinking about the obstacles Penelope had created, he couldn't swallow this frustration.
This woman had once helped him so much, but now she was standing against him, making things difficult without leaving any room for compromise. It seemed like she genuinely wanted to sever all ties with him.
Dominic's eyes revealed a storm of darkness as he tightened his grip on the glass.
At this moment, his phone rang. Answering it, his voice was low and sullen, "What is it?"
"Mr. Archer, the law firm has sent a divorce lawsuit. Miss Reed has instructed the lawyer to convey a message... " Lanny's tone was hesitant and awkward, clearly aware that the news wasn't pleasant.
"What does Miss Reed say?" Dominic's voice carried evident anger.
"Miss Reed said that the lawyer will handle all matters related to the divorce. If you want to delay, then wait for the lawsuit.
Shortly after, he heard the sound of glass shattering. Even though it came through the phone, cold sweat uncontrollably broke out on his back.
Dominic... this time, he had indeed angered Miss Reed!
