Eventually, she blurted out angrily, “Our core technology is a business secret. Why should I tell you about it? You
can see for yourself if you have the guts to come!”
Paige was brainless, but the Johnathan family was influential in Bluhm, so Loraine was very curious to know what
they were capable of. After thinking for a moment, she smiled and said, “Okay. Since you insist
I'11 go and have a Look.”
Davy nodded in satisfaction. “That's great. You should also ask Marco to cwith you.”
Loraine coughed to hide her embarrassment.

“Forget it. With our current relationship, it’s not appropriate for us to attend such an occasion together.”
The interview Marco had granted to those reporters had led people to misunderstand their relationship. If she
and Marco attended the banquet together, the media would surely spread the rumor much more aggressively.
But Davy, not knowing what she was worried about, tried to convince her.
“But you can’t find a better partner now, right? I'm with Sameen.
You're with Marco. That would be just perfect, wouldn't it?”
Loraine was about to respond, but she suddenly heard Marco's voice behind her.
“I'LL go with Loraine.”
He stalked into the room, his eyes fixed on Loraine’s face.

Loraine had no idea how or when he cinto the place. She looked away from him. “But...”
Marco interrupted her.
“Loraine, it’s normal to attend a banquet with a business partner. And also, it's important for us to know more
about our opponent’s company.”
He was right.

Though Loraine didn’t Like it, she just couldn't think of anything that could invalidate his statement.
“I guess that’s settled, right?” Davy asked with a smile.
After hesitating for a while, Loraine finally sighed and nodded in agreement.
Then they began to discuss among themselves, as if no one else was around. This made Paige feel left out. She
tried several times to contribute to the conversation, but she failed each time.
Since her purpose of inviting Davy had been achieved, she had nothing else to do, so she left angrily and went
back to report to Eaton.
Eaton was very dissatisfied with her for ruining the exposition. He hadn't been nice to her since he cback
from the police station.
