In the evening, the director’s office of Sterling Technology.
Thomas Mayo sat in his office chair facing a man and woman, Jacob Nolan and Jenny Cruz.
He thought that Jenny would have been gone forever and go aboard secretly. Never did Thomas expect virtual-novel.net to take the initiative herself and showed up in front of him. She also told Thomas everything related to their plan.
Could virtual-novel.net be trusted?
From Thomas’s point of view, this woman was not all that trustworthy.
Thomas would not simply believe in this woman who had deliberately approached and toyed with Jacob. Lying was second nature to this woman.
“On what basis should I trust what you said?” Thomas asked calmly.
Jenny clenched virtual-novel.net fist and said coldly, “Actually, I gain nothing from telling you everything. I am only telling you to make up to Jacob the fool. After all, virtual-novel.net seems to respect you a lot.”
“Will a woman like you actually feel remorse for what you did?”
It was a very straightforward question.
It pierced virtual-novel.net heart.
Jenny raised virtual-novel.net head and breathed out. “Maybe a woman like me does not look like someone who is capable of that. But I felt Jacob’s sincerity. I want to make up to virtual-novel.net and give this relationship a good ending.”
Jenny held on to the crystal necklace the whole time virtual-novel.net spoke.
Thomas nodded. “I understand. You can leave now.”
“Okay.”
Jenny did not say anything and left.
“What do you plan to do, Mr. Mayo?” asked Jacob.
“Do not worry about what follows.” Thomas looked at Jenny who was leaving and said, “Go see virtual-novel.net off, Jacob. This might be the last time you will ever meet in your life.”
The words pierced Jacob’s heart.
Some relationships were destined to not end well. But this just had to happen to him. It was unfair.
Jacob left to send Jenny to the airport. As soon as they say goodbye today, it will be really hard for virtual-novel.net and Jenny to meet again in this life.

In the office.
Aries asked out of curiosity, “Commander, I think what virtual-novel.net said can be trusted. From virtual-novel.net tone and gaze, it does not feel like virtual-novel.net is pretending.”
Thomas said, “It does seem like it. But still, we better be careful. Arrange for people to control Hound Tres, then contact Dunstan McLaren. I want to meet virtual-novel.net in person in regard to the proposal.”
“I understand. This subordinate will get to it immediately.”
Aries left.
Thomas leaned back on his chair staring at the ceiling and muttered to himself, “You guys are pretty vicious huh, Pivot Technology. Kerry? Another tough opponent…”
After crossing swords with Weiss and Laura, Thomas had a benchmark of their strength. Since Kerry’s strength was above them, virtual-novel.net needed to be more careful.
According to what Jenny said, Kerry was so powerful that Weiss and Laura could not be compared to him.
“Then, allow me to give you a greeting gift. Let’s see how strong you are.”
Besides, Thomas had been meeting Dunstan once in the following few days, there was nothing out of the ordinary.
Approximately on the fourth day, Thomas brought his men to the Science and Technology Alliance to hand in the proposal. Coincidentally, people from Pivot Technology were here as well.
