"All right." Barton smiled at Kerry's reply.

A few seconds later, Kerry's phone pinged, signaling that she had received a message. She opened it and saw an address. She hailed a taxi and showed the driver the location that Barton had sent.

The place Barton had reserved was a private club. Gorgeous pavilions, beautiful bridges, and clean rivers surrounded the place. The scenery along the way was scenic and elegant as well. Unfortunately, Kerry was in a sour mood and did not appreciate the breathtaking views.

While sitting in the taxi, Kerry speculated why Barton had suddenly invited her to a meal.

"Hello, Kerry." Barton waved his hand as soon as Kerry entered the private box. Even though he had been waiting for quite some time, he offered her a warm smile. "How have you been? Are you enjoying your stay here in H City? Have you met with any difficulties?"

"I'm alright, Mr. Xiao. Nonetheless, thank you for

nnot think of a single valid reason why I would want to break off this deal,"

Kerry said with a smile. "I am not like you. I do not let my personal affairs interfere with my public life. I choose a business partner who has the strength and ability to back me up. You cannot do that because you are too blinded by your personal vendetta against Terence.

Mr. Xiao, please try not to let your personal feelings get the better of you. Think twice before you let that happen again."

"Shut up!" Barton yelled, pounding his fists on the table and standing up in a huff. He pointed a finger at Kerry. "I have been in the business world for a long time. I know how it works. I will run my business the way I want. I do not want a young girl telling me what to do. I think you are really—"

"Mr. Xiao!" Seeing that Barton was angry and might say something he would later regret, Zoe interrupted him. "Calm down! You are drunk!"
