NovelEnglishChapter 52 No way. I'm done with PrimeStar forever!" Raleigh declared without a backward glance as he stormed off.
Charlene really appreciated talent. Her eyes flicked to Stewart, who shook his head at her, suggesting she keep cool. Raleigh was a diamond they couldn't afford to let go, even with his temper tantrum.

Stewart cleared his throat and addressed the room, "Okay, Charlene may not have a PhD, but trust me. Her know-how is more than enough for what we're after." The room exchanged skeptical glances.
