He helpedup and walkedto the side of the table.
"You look calm," | said.
| knew Theo had always been calm in handling things, but judging from his personality, he would have thought
that it was a strange thing to run into Jordan in France. However, it seemed like he had already known about this.
Theo rose to his feet and walked toward the kitchen. | watched him take the carton of milk out and pour some
milk into a glass.
"Honestly, | already knew that he was going to be here. Besides, | saw their company's employees on the first
day of the exhibition. | saw his assistant too.
That's why | guessed that he was probably
in France too. But | didn't expect he would have brought Shannon to France as well."
Theo had already placed the glass of milk into the microwave while he was busy talking. The buzzing noise of the

"Then why did he chere?" | immediately questioned him.
"For the sreason as me. He wants to enter the mecha industry too," answered Theo.
"He's not coming for you?" | was surprised to hear his answer.
Theo leaned against the countertop with his back facing me. | walked toward him, wanting to know the answer
as soon as possible.
"Yes, and no." Theo paused for a moment and continued, "It's actually easy. He's still
holding a grudge againstbecause of the business cooperation. Unfortunately, the die is cast, and there's
nothing he can do to change it. The only thing that he can do is find a loophole to defeat me, hence why he
chose to enter the mecha industry that I've just entered. He wants to defeatin this field."
Theo smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
"But he's a beginner too," | replied.
"You're right. That's why he's sure that he can beatthis time," said Theo. There was a confident smile on his
face.
I liked his smile. Every t| saw that smile, it showed that he had confidence that he would not be defeated
easily. | knew Theo was capable of doing that.
"I challenged him today and told him to have a fair competition," said Theo.
"You said that to him?" | was a little confused.
"Yeah. | was talking to Jordan in the cafe when you calledthis afternoon. He toldeverything 1 told you
just now!" explained Theo.
I slightly frowned and asked, "Can we trust him?"
Besides, Jordan even said that he wanted fair play, but how could he possibly be fair and honest?
The latter half of the sentence was something | secretly mumbled to myself did not even have to listen to Theo's
answer and | could already determine that Jordan was definitely not an honest person.
If what he said was true, he would not have chere.
"I guess | don't have to worry about that. There are rules and regulations in every industry. Since I've just

Theo.
Theo's confidence was tellingthat he knew exactly what kind of person Jordan was.
"Don't worry. Qne has to earn the merits oneself to be one of the top few figures in this industry. Jordan can buy
other companies, but the company needs to be strong and capable enough. If he's doing that, he's the one who
should be worried," said Theo.
There cthe microwave's ding, indicating that the milk had been warmed.
Theo took the glass of milk out of the microwave forand placed it in front of me.
"Trust me. | won't lose," said Theo.
| took the glass from him. The warm milk warmed my body, and the fear in my heart slowly disappeared.
"But I'm still worried. Let's stick together if we're traveling abroad next time. I'll be nearby even if you have to
work," | replied.
Theo heldin his arms after | took the glass of milk from him. He said, "I promise."
