Chapter 165
Initially, he wanted Beta Smith to present the Sterling pack bid, but now that Griffon was here, Jackson had no choice but to do
it himself.
Griffon had always been a strict wolf. Jackson might lose the bid. if his Beta made a mistake during the presentation.
While Beta Smith heaved a deep sigh of relief, Jackson had to sort out all his thoughts in an hour.
To concentrate, he needed a coffee to refresh himself.
“We are the tenth in line to present. There is plenty of time.”

I didn’t ask any more questions. I bent down low, got up, and walked toward the back door.
I wasn’t familiar with the building. When I came out, I only saw high-tech products, not even a single person.
I searched the whole building several times but couldn’t find the break room.
It looked like I had to leave the building, but it seemed that I
would need to swipe a card to get in and out. Except, I didn’t have a card.
I would have to find someone in the Knight pack to let me out and then back in.
Just as I was about to turn around and give up, I saw Preston coming in.
The moment the door was opened, I almost took advantage of the gap to get out, but fortunately, I hadn’t lost my mind.
I mustered up my courage and stopped Preston.
“Mr. Knight, please wait...”
Preston didn’t expect me to dare stop him, and his face suddenly darkened.
“Ms. Palmer, what are you trying to do?”
He looked astonished that I had called out for him.
“Mr. Knight, do you know where the coffee is?”
I wanted Preston to help open the door, but when I saw his face, I quickly changed my words. I could always find a way to come
in as long as he told me where the coffee was.
No matter what, I was going to upset someone, and right now, the person I needed to upset the least was Jackson.
