Chapter 21 We're in the SBoat "I'm in the sboat as Mr. Andrew, the humiliation you faced today is just as much mine. Why would I mock you?" "Healthy Land's strategic partner is TMO, not ArmCorp. Right now, Anthony, it's you and The Matthews who are on the steam. After today's debacle, I've completely ticked off Master Joshua, and we'll never secure a collaboration with The Grants. And honestly, for your own future's sake, you should probably keep your distance fromto avoid any misunderstanding by Master Joshua. Otherwise, who knows, you might get the boot." "Andrew, don't be mad. Sure, TMO snagged this signing, but Healthy Land's investment in Delvin Hub is all about making dough. If collaborating with TMO ends up losing The Grants money and tarnishing Healthy Land's rep, my mentor will cut losses without blinking, and he'll ditch the partnership pronto. When that happens, I'll put in a good word for you and ArmCorp. I'll make sure your family becomes The Grants' partner in Delvin Hub. Then, buddy, we can shoot for success together!" Meanwhile, after dining with Joshua, Daniel returned to his place to find Brittany waiting at his door as if she had been there for ages.
"Need something?" Daniel asked.

So Brittany hurried over to tell Daniel to move while the coast was clear. If Jessica found out she'd tucked Daniel away in a dirty, stinky basement full of rats and roaches, she'd certainly get a scolding.
Even though Brittany still looked down her nose at Daniel, considering him a total washout unworthy of being TMO's assistant, the guy's luck was infuriatingly good! He unexpectedly made nice with Joshua, who had basically cheered him on, making him the star of the day. Even Mr. Andrew wound up on his knees apologizing! But once Joshua left, Daniel would be on his own! This stroke of luck was a one-hit-wonder to Brittany, and she was certain it would never strike twice! As for the basement, it was no place for sleep. A better dorm was a no -brainer for Daniel.
As he was packing up, Jessica showed up.
The sight of Daniel's place next to the garbage dump, with mice and roaches scurrying around and a strong musty stench in the air, ticked her off.
Turning to Brittany, she demanded, "Why's he staying here?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Oh, Jessica, when I set him up it was in the best room. But he said he liked living with of roaches, and insisted on this joint.
Ofra with mice loved the Company No matter what I said he wouldn't budge, so he ended Chapter 21 We're in the SBoat up here," Brittany explained, shooting Daniel a look meant to keep him on script with her story.
If he dared stray from her narrative, Brittany wouldn't let him off easy! Jessica, not buying it, whirled around to ask Daniel, "Is that so?"
"Of course not! I clearly remember Brittany tellingthat you, Jessica, assignedto this room. Fknow you don't think much of me, didn't wantas your assistant, and wantedgone ASAP.
Now that TMO has signed with Healthy Land and The Matthews are on board with The Grants; I guess I'm board with of no use anymore. So, I should just go, right?"
