Jenna thought, 'So that's how it is..he's already a shareholder, huh? I just didn't expect Rex Hidalgo had set his eyes on the field of artificial intelligence for so long.'

If Jeffrey did not take the initiative to tell Jenna this, Jenna would not have been able to find out. The fact that he told her this information also proved that he genuinely wanted to cooperate with her.

Although Jenna was not happy about Rex's involvement, she had a clear mind and separated her personal affairs and business well. She would not give up on this opportunity.

Jenna lowered her eyes and smiled. "With Hidalgo Corporation's strength, you can very well enjoy the fruits of this cooperation by yourself. Why do you need a third party to get involved?"

She raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Rex.

"After all, this is a brand new field that no one's involved in, so Hidalgo Corporation cannot take this risk alone."

The man's voice was deep and clear. The corners of his lips hooked up. "It won't be a wrong move for Anderson Empire to choose J&J. I hope we'll have a pleasant cooperation."

He raised his glass with his slender and beautiful hand. Jeffrey clinked his glass with Rex's and the two men waited for Jenna's response.

Since there was no other choice, Jenna could only smile faintly and coldly as she gently raised her glass. The soft clink of the glasses was crisp and pleasant.

Everything was settled. Even though Jenna was not happy about it, there was no way out. Her chest felt
stuffy and unpleasant.

Jeffrey breathed a sigh of relief and noticed the tense atmosphere between the two of them. He tried to ease the situation and said, "Why don't you two take the first dance as the opening to our anniversary celebration? I think this is undoubtedly the best way to announce our cooperation."

Rex frowned slightly. Jenna chuckled and reached out to tuck her hair behind her ears. She smiled perfunctorily and said, "Sorry, but I don't know how to dance."

After saying that, she turned on her heels and left, ignoring Rex's cold and sullen gaze.

Jeffrey shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's just one dance, but she's not even willing to. It seems that our future cooperation won't be very pleasant. Mr. Hidalgo, you're the first among the elites that have such a messy divorce."

Rex's face sank as he stared at Jenna's swaying dress. His expression turned even more downcast.

'Don't know how to dance? Hah! Then was I blind back at Chris Avila's restaurant?'

However, Rex suddenly thought of Daryl's words and felt the anger in his chest dissipate. Instead, his heart clenched uncomfortably. 'I owe her too much..'

Even if Jenna was upset, she still maintained a graceful smile. When she got downstairs, Gino approached her with a warm smile. "Done?"

Jenna's dull expression seemed somewhat cold without the joy of closing a deal. This made Gino a little puzzled.

"Rex is a shareholder, so Jeffrey Jinn asked for a three-way cooperation," Jenna explained.

Gino paused for a moment and finally understood why Jenna looked so cold. He smiled and stroked her hair dotingly and gently. "It's okay. That just means we have someone to share the risks with.

The benefits of this certainly outweigh the disadvantages. Jenna froze for a moment and raised her eyebrows. She suddenly realized that
what Rex was worried about was exactly Anderson Empires's woes as well. The benefits of this three-way cooperation did outweigh the disadvantages.

After Jenna figured it out, the moodiness in her chest was instantly swept away. She smiled and took Gino's arm, then gently placed her chin on his shoulder as she whined. "G, thanks for reminding me. Otherwise, I would've been cursing all
of them for days on end!"

Gino could not help but laugh. This intimate scene was an eyesore to a certain onlooker.

Rex stared at the pair from upstairs and watched Gino and Jenna's intimate gestures. Mark came up and scoffed.

"Tsk tsk..l heard that Gino isn't close to women, but why is he so attached to this woman? They must have an unspeakable relationship!"

Rex faintly retracted his gaze with a cold face. He ignored Mark and went downstairs to network with the other guests.

The banquet hall was finally abuzz. Jeffrey walked over and whispered a few words to the emcee, who then came forward with a microphone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to J&J Corporation's 5th anniversary! To celebrate this momentous day, I will announce the latest project partners of J&J Corporation on behalf of Mr. Jinn, the Hidalgo Corporation, and Anderson Empire, let's invite Mr. Rex Hidalgo and Ms. Jenna to share
the opening dance!"

The crowd cheered loudly.
