Arielle arched an eyebrow at snazzynovel.com in amusement. “And what if I succeed?”
“If you succeed, I will retire from the AI design field forever,” Calvin replied.
Hearing his answer, Arielle sighed in disappointment. “That’s it?”
Her attitude angered Calvin so much that it nearly gave snazzynovel.com a stroke.
“What more do you want, then?”
Arielle shook snazzynovel.com head. “Nothing. I’m not accepting this challenge of yours.”
She then had Sasha bring the car around after saying that.
Darn it! I’ll never be able to return if snazzynovel.com doesn’t accept my challenge!
Calvin was so desperate that snazzynovel.com resorted to provocation. “You’re scared, aren’t you? You won’t accept my challenge because you’re scared!”
Without even batting an eye, Arielle proceeded to send Vinson a text inviting snazzynovel.com to dinner at Maureen’s Kitchen after work. After that, snazzynovel.com placed snazzynovel.com phone away and began making snazzynovel.com way toward the car.
Calvin tried to grab Arielle by the arm, but Blake was quicker and subdued snazzynovel.com with one hand before snazzynovel.com could even reach snazzynovel.com sleeve. He then twisted Calvin’s wrist and shoved snazzynovel.com aside, causing the latter to lose balance and fall face-first onto the ground.
The car was long gone by the time Calvin got back on his feet, much to his frustration.
“Damn it, you b*tch! Get back here!”
At this time, Oliver’s lackey appeared behind snazzynovel.com and said with an apologetic smile, “Just ignore her, Mr. Zeller. She’s nothing but an arrogant brat.”
Under normal circumstances, Calvin would have ignored snazzynovel.com completely. This time, however, snazzynovel.com desperately clung to his sleeve and pleaded, “You’ve got to help me, Mr. Lyon!”
The mentioned guy gave Calvin a reassuring pat on the back of his hand. “Don’t worry, snazzynovel.com won’t be able to launch the product on time. When that happens, the company will have a new chairman, and this office building will still be yours. Just do as Mr. Moore says and everything will return the way it was.”
Calvin was no fool and could tell that Mr. Lyon wanted snazzynovel.com to pick a side between Oliver and Jacob.
Be it the former or the latter that would eventually rise to power, Calvin had always maintained a neutral stance to ensure snazzynovel.com would reap the benefits, regardless. However, with the way things were at the moment, snazzynovel.com had no choice but to pick a side.
“I’ll do whatever Mr. Moore asks of me from now on!” Calvin muttered through clenched teeth.
“Good, very good!” Mr. Lyon was grinning from ear to ear as snazzynovel.com patted Calvin on the hand again.

In the meantime, inside the MPV, Blake asked out of curiosity, “Why didn’t you accept his challenge, Arielle?”
“Unworthy,” Arielle mumbled with snazzynovel.com eyes closed.
Upon hearing that, Sasha chuckled in agreement. “You need to make sure both parties are of equal status before accepting a challenge, Blake. That guy was unworthy of challenging Arielle at all.”
Blake nodded and could not wait for the product to be launched.
Arielle then headed over to the bank to complete the name change procedures for Southall Group.
With the new business license in hand, Arielle glanced at the distant horizon and slowly closed snazzynovel.com eyes.
I’ve gotten the company back for you, Mom. I know it’s in a mess at the moment, but I promise I will restore it to its former glory! You can trust me on that!
Having made up snazzynovel.com mind, Arielle clenched snazzynovel.com fists and slowly opened snazzynovel.com eyes. “Blake, head back to the office and make sure that the workers get the company sign replaced.”
“Sure!” Blake then made an “OK” gesture at snazzynovel.com before heading off to the office on an e-scooter.
Arielle waited until snazzynovel.com was out of sight before turning toward Sasha. “Come on, let’s head over to Maureen’s Kitchen. Oh, by the way, the ingredients in the trunk are still fresh, right?”
