Arielle arched an eyebrow at him in amusement. “And what if I succeed?”
“If you succeed, I will retire from the Al 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 him a stroke.
“What more do you want, then?”
Arielle shook her 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 she doesn't accept my challenge!
Calvin was so desperate that he 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 him to dinner at Maureen's Kitchen after work. After that, she placed her phone away and began making her way toward the car.
Calvin tried to grab Arielle by the arm, but Blake was quicker and subdued him with one hand before he could even reach her sleeve.
He then twisted Calvin's wrist and shoved him 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 him 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 him completely. This time, however, he 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, she 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.”
