Athena had thought about it along the way.
If she had to stay, then stay it was.
But it was impossible for her to continue acting as a coquettish girl.
So…
Not long after the meeting began, Jack started to play his tricks.
Athena raised her eyes, then exposed him ruthlessly.
She said, “Mr. Shelton, do not provide us with the financial report you use for fooling around with. If
there is no sincerity from you, the cooperation between us will be impossible.”
Suddenly, silence fell in the meeting room.
Jack was the first to get irritated. He said, “Miss Newton, what do you mean?”
Jack and Athena had met several times.
Before this, Athena was always by Byron’s side, either organizing and distributing materials or taking
meeting minutes.

Jack had never seen her speaking up during a meeting.
Everyone knew about Athena and Byron’s relationship.
In private, Jack had made fun of Athena a lot of times.
Saying something about Athena was just like a jug of water, whom Byron took with him wherever he
went to quench his thirst at any time.
He also disdainfully ridiculed her that it was very easy for a beautiful woman like Athena to make
money.
Just lie down and cry out a few times, and she could already earn a lot of money.
Right now, the meeting room was full of the higher–ups.
How could Jack maintain his dignity after being refuted by such
a woman?
“Just to be frank here.” Athena pushed over the materials in her hands. “Since we are talking about
cooperation, it will just be a waste of each other’s time if you don’t provide us with the real financial
report.”
Jack’s face went livid.
Meanwhile, the other people were discussing it inconspicuously.
Those from the Imbe Group were obviously just enjoying the show, but some of them were also
blaming Athena.

It was because they intended to bring this cooperation to
success.
Everyone on Jack’s side was furious.
Someone told Byron, “Mr. Crawford, your secretary is being too rude!”
Athena did not even look at Byron.
It would be best if he was mad right now.
It also saved her the trouble of having to think of ways to disgust him and make him despise her.
“Was she wrong?” Byron leaned back on the chair instead and coldly said, “Was it rude to ask you to
state a true fact?”
Athena was taken aback, and she subconsciously looked at Byron.
In fact, fake financial reports were very common.
Usually, people would not bring this matter to the surface. There were numerous ways to discuss lower
prices in business cooperation.
How could Athena not know?
For one thing, the financial report in her hands now was so sloppy that she could even see how absurd
it was.

Aside from that, Athena did hear a lot about Jack badmouthing her everywhere.
So, she decided to expose him.
In order to maintain the image as an unattainable woman in Byron’s heart, she had endured enough.
Now, screw it. Anyone could endure as much as they wanted, but she would not anymore!
If Jack would not change the financial report, Athena could make him suffer right there a then.
However…
She did not expect that Byron would defend her in public.
This had never happened before.
“Mr. Crawford…”
“What’s the point of you calling for Mr. Crawford?” Athena looked at Jack and said, “If this kind of
financial statement can’t even pass through me, you don’t even need to ask Mr. Crawford.”
While Athena was speaking, she scanned the few people who were assigned here to establish the
cooperation, and they were all the leaders of Dunlop City’s branch office.

Athena said, “All of you are the seniors of the Crawford family, yet you didn’t find any issue from such a
ludicrous thing? And you even brought it to the meeting?”
How could those higher–ups bear to hear such words? One of them said, “Miss Newton! You don’t
understand, do you? We have read the financial report, so how could there be issues with it? Mr.
Crawford…”
Athena was just a mere secretary to the president.
Yet she dared to act so brazenly?
“Is there truly no issue?” Byron asked. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
It was unpredictable whether he was delighted or angered from his tone.
However, when those higher–ups heard it, they felt as if they were facing a time bomb.
“About this… Mr. Crawford, why don’t you take a rest first, and we’ll discuss it later?”
Byron ignored him.
Instead, he looked at Athena coldly.
She was beautiful when she was being obedient and gentle.
But such a cold and elegant look even made her more beautiful.
