NovelEnglishMeanwhile, Rhett and Frederick were at the CEO's office at Killian Corporation.
"Mr. Rhett, the Everetts have booked a private room at the Imperial Hotel for 7:00 pm. Hera will be there." The secretary, Rachel
Davis, reported the latest developments to Rhett.
Rhett checked the tbefore suddenly getting up. "Get the car ready. We're going to the Imperial Hotel."
"Dad, are we really going to collaborate with her?" Frederick asked, feeling disgruntled. The meeting had just ended, and Chad's
final decision was to continue seeking Raven to work together.
The thought of Hera being Raven and possibly the Vulcan as well caused his face to burn.
"Do you have a better candidate in mind?" Rhett peered at him, asking a question of his own instead of answering him.
Frederick immediately turned silent. He never expected that XS Corporation would be willing to spend so much money. In fact, they
had secured a collaboration with 90% of the top 100 hackers in the world whom they had invited earlier.

Meanwhile, the remaining 10% of top hackers were rather polarizing choices. There were renowned hackers like the Vulcan, S, and
Raven, who were out of their reach, or hackers like Silas, who was looked down on for his poor character.
Rhett put away his things before heading toward the Imperial Hotel. He wasn't willing to cooperate with Hera either and had voiced
out his opinion at the meeting.
But Chad had insisted on cooperation. Besides, he was still angry about the foolish things Giselle had done. As the CEO of Killian
Corporation, Rhett had no choice but to go along and follow through with the plan for now.
It was 7:00 pm when Wayne parked the car at the Imperial Hotel. Hera helped Catherine out after getting out of the car. As James’
car had arrived first, he and the others were waiting for them at the entrance.
Hera looked around and realized that she had not seen any sign of Everly for the whole afternoon. Thus, she asked Catherine about
her whereabouts.
"Everly asked to take leave today. She said that she's meeting with a friend," Catherine explained.
Hera nodded, clearly not bothered. But the matter sounded strange to Catherine.
When did Everly have new friends? Ever sinceing to Jedburgh, Catherine was always with Wayne and Everly, rarely leaving
each other's side.
They would either spend their days together at the clinic or at home. Whenever they wanted to take a break, they would go for a
walk in the park. She never heard Everly bring up a new friend.
Seeing how Hera wasn't bothered, Catherine did not bring up her concerns.
After entering the hotel, James informed the waiter of the reserved room number, and the waiter led them to the third floor. The
moment they exited the elevator, Hera spotted Rhett walking toward them.
James' eyes lit up upon seeing Rhett. He knew that there was a very high chance of running into the Killians if the family dined at
the Imperial Hotel. But he never expected that he could run into Rhett, the CEO of Killian Corporation.
After all, it wasn't easy for anyone to meet with Rhett. Yet he was walking in their direction.
James was thrilled and immediately adjusted his clothes. He then stepped forward and extended his hand with a smile. "Mr. Killian,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmit's nice to meet you."
However, Rhett did not even look at him. Rachel, who had been following behind him, looked rather disdainful and rudely said to
James, "Excuse me. Please step aside."
Theplete dismissal of James made him awkwardly withdraw his hand. The Everetts now were nothingpared to the
influential families.
"Ms. Youngworth, a word please?" Rhett asked politely while standing before Hera.
Hera casually glanced at them. "I'm not free."
James' heart began to tremble. He knew that Hera had always been unruly, but he never expected that she would be this rude
toward Rhett.
Gino's eyes were filled with admiration for Hera.pared to her, James really seemed inferior earlier.
"I wish to discuss further regarding the collaboration Frederick mentioned the other day," Rhett added, not giving way.
Hera asked her family to head toward the private room first. Thinking that he had succeeded, Rhett said, "This way, please."
