Chapter 101
They were frantic like ants on a hot griddle. Flora stood off to the side, frowning deeply. She said to Gwyneth, “Ms. Jenkins, it’s not just these projects. Even the logistics and IT departments are ignoring our requests,
“We can’t access critical files on our computers, and the new printers aren’t working either. It really feels like they’re deliberately targeting us”
Gwyneth rubbed her temples in frustration. Looking down, she saw Quentin’s message. (If you’re willing to beg Zachary for help, I guarantee your work will go smoothly from now on.]
Is there an even worse father than him? Gwyneth thought bitterly. Blackmailing his own daughter–how utterly shameless! Caught between a rock and a hard place, she considered reaching out to her contacts outside the company to handle the situation herself.
Anything was better than bowing to Quentin or begging Zachary for help.

“I’m downstairs, came Harrison’s deep voice through the phone.
Gwyneth gasped in shock. “You’re downstairs at the Jenkins Group? Why are you here”
With that, she immediately rose from her seat and hurried downstairs without pause.
Harrison evaded her question, saying only. Tll wait”
“I’ll be right there.” Gwyneth rushed into the elevator, gripping her phone tightly. Why would Harrison suddenly come to the Jenkins Group to find me? Did something serious happen?‘ she wondered.
She made her way to the lobby and spotted Harrison standing silently by the security gate. With his sharply defined features, dressed in a dark brown custom–tailored three–piece suit and gleaming vintage leather shoes, he looked every bit like a gentleman.
Many passing employees stopped and stared at him.

Not everyone at the Jenkins Group recognized Harrison on sight. Looking down at her slightly flushed cheeks, evidence she had rushed to meet him, the corners of his lips curved upward in a subtle smile.
Harrison thought, ‘She came running Of course, I’ll wait for her!
Harrison simply said, “I have an important matter to discuss with you.”
“Come with me,” Gwyneth said, leading Harrison upstairs to her office. Once inside, Harrison reached into his briefcase and pulled out a thick stack of documents.
Gwyneth’s eyes narrowed as she examined the document. The partnership contract for the Lopez Group’s Calvocity mall project? Wasn’t this supposed to be sent to the Flynn Group? Why is it here in front of me?”
“I’ve convinced Grandpa to strip Adrian of his authority over the Galvocity mall project. Em taking full control now, and I’ve chosen the Jenkins Group as our partner, he explained
Harrison calmly took a seat on the sofa, meeting Gwyneth’s incredulous gaze,
He said coldly, “It’s not about pulling strings for you. Adrian knows next to nothing about the Galvocity project. He handed it over to the Flynn Group quickly without even getting a background check
“Meanwhile, after the Flynn Group took over the project, they were dragging their feet on progress. I brought up your previous insights on the Galvocity mall project to Grandpa.
*With these three Luctors, he agreed to transfer the project and let me choose the Jenkins Group as our partner,
“Now that the Flynn Group and the Jenkins Group are business rivals, you don’t have to worry about Zachary pestering you anymore.”
Harrison had considered everything, both professionally and personally. Gwyneth’s face lit up with joy as she slid onto the seat beside him, her eyes sparkling. She beamed at him and said, “That was brilliant. Thank you so much.
The Jenkins Group used to grovel before the Flynn Group. Now that we’ve secured this project, we can finally hold our heads high and do things right I can get back to normal work again. You’re truly an amazing partner.”
