Daniel wasn't some minor figure in the industry. He had quite a reputation, yet someone still made him so fearful, like a bird startled by a bow. The thought made Joseph sneer. Lucas was just a pretty face clinging to Aurora's side, with no achievements of his own. How could someone like that make Daniel so afraid? Joseph still couldn't figure it out.

But then he remembered Daniel's serious expression, the way he had warned him. That scene remained vivid in his mind. Even if he wanted to shrug it off, it was clear things weren't that simple.

They hadn't even taken the matter seriously. Why insist on some appointment? Taking a deep breath, Tessa finally managed to reach Daniel's secretary.

Since that was the case, she would secure the appointment and show it to that receptionist. Tomorrow, she would slap it right in his face. Tessa contacted Daniel's secretary and explained her request. "Hello, this is from Walton Corporation," Tessa said, forcing her voice steady. "Previously, our company discussed a project concerning the land in the southern district. I'd like to ask when we might be able to sign the contract?"
