Chapter 138

Like a proud emperor, Stefan sat there and haughtily glanced at the glass in Renee’s hand, which was filled to the brim with orange juice.

“Is that how you show your sincerity towards this industry?” He sneered.

“Sincerity is measured by what I do,” Renee retorted coldly, “not what I drink.”

She then turned to the top figures in the room and humbly stated, “Gentlemen, please forgive me for drinking orange juice instead of wine. I’m allergic to alcohol so unfortunately, I can’t join you for a glass. Nonetheless, please know that I hold all of you in the highest regard.”

“Orange juice instead of wine?” Stefan scoffed. “Do you think this is child’s play? The world of business is a battlefield where people fight to the death. No one here has any time to play with you. If you can’t adapt to this world, you’d better just go home now and not waste anyone’s

Still, Elijah knew that no matter what, men were always better at the finger-guessing game than women were. He could not help but worry about Renee, so he cautiously reminded Stefan, “Please go easy on Ms. Everheart, Mr. Hunt. She’s not been out much before, so she’s definitely

not experienced in this kind of game.”

Renee put on a pitiful expression and echoed, “That’s right, Mr. Hunt! Please go easy on me…
