Upon hearing Vinny's words, Damon Hawke's sharp brows slightly furrowed.
"Sis, she's not an official employee of Hawke Corporation; she has no obligation to help us."
His intuition told him that Vinny had ulterior motives for inviting Elara Don to tonight's party.
He didn't want Elara to go along.
"Though she isn't an official employee of Hawke Corporation, she represents Lionne Group. Our two companies have a cooperative relationship, so asking her for a little help is justifiable. Or, do I need to call her boss directly?"
Vinny's attitude was somewhat forceful, but after a pause, seeing Damon's slightly somber expression, his tone softened a bit.
"Tom, I've already taken a step back. Logically, I could just call her over without consulting you. You should understand, even if you really like her, we need to see if she has the skills to make others impressed, right?"
These words were both coercive and enticing, leaving no room to refute.
