After all, if Darcy made the introduction, she would also bear some responsibility.“As expected. You’re certainly sharp.”Russell could not help but compliment.In truth, he was slowly guiding the other party, trying to get her to bring up the subject on her own.That way, when he proposed something, it would not seem abrupt.He appeared passive, but in fact, he had been leading the conversation from a dominant position.Russell knew that it would not be easy, but he was capable and knew what to do.“If you have something to say, just say it. I’m not fond of these roundabout ways of speaking.“I can help if you need it, but I can’t accept this kind of goodwill.”Darcy pushed the jewelry box forward and expressed her stance.If Russell were more straightforward, she might be willing to help. These sorts of indirect inquiries made her feel as though something was deliberately hidden, hinting that he did not trust her.“I’ve always thought that as a woman, your thoughts would
“That’s quite interesting. I remember your company also deals with jewelry. Are these pieces from your product line?”Darcy was genuinely curious.She already knew their company dabbled in multiple sectors. Though none of the subsidiaries were particularly large, they each left a distinct impression.Darcy assumed that the boss had an open and progressive mindset, which was how they managed to thrive in different areas.She even considered meeting the boss, hoping to learn a few things and perhaps even model their methods.Unfortunately, she could only meet a manager of the company. Still, that did not mean there would not be a chance in the future.If the partnership went well, it would naturally lead to further opportunities and maybe even a visit to their headquarters.Such thoughts flashed in Darcy’s mind, but she did not rush. Some things took time.“Yes, it’s one of our company’s jewelry brands. Recently, our boss purchased a batch of emeralds, which yielded quite a few g
“We apologize, Mr. Hark. Our staff failed to make proper arrangements. They didn’t consult with you in time and finalized the itinerary directly.“If we had known you were in such a hurry to visit the factory, we would’ve changed the schedule earlier.”Luca greeted Russell politely, trying to reassure him.As long as the situation was still manageable, no one would press the issue further.Russell was straightforward and replied calmly, “It was my fault for not consulting you earlier, but since I’m already at the office, I’ll go along with your plans.”Everyone else understood that the client was not particularly bothered. They finally breathed a sigh of relief.“Ms. Quint is waiting in the office. Please follow me, Mr. Hark.”With those words, Luca walked over to the CEO’s office and knocked on the door.She waited for a response before pushing the door open.Russell had long heard of Darcy and was quite curious.A woman who could establish herself in the business world and
Russell said casually, “Your city looks quite bustling. The scenery here is also unique.”“That’s right, Mr. Hark. If you have time, you can take a stroll around. Our city is quite charming.”Troy was only responsible for sending the client to the office. The rest of the arrangements could be slowly made afterward.He did not know how long this client would be staying in the city or whether he needed to continue accompanying him.“What kind of person is Ms. Quint? It’s my first time meeting her, so I’m a little nervous.”Russell tried to inquire about the situation.Troy was already used to it. After all, clients often asked these kinds of questions when they arrived.“Ms. Quint is a very capable woman. She’s extremely beautiful and exceptionally competent. Our company only began to grow under her leadership. That’s also how we got the qualifications to collaborate with Witterson Corp.”Troy could not help but praise Darcy.After all, he never expected that someone as beautifu
Originally, Darcy did not need to concern herself with matters like these.However, this client was from North State. If they signed a contract, it could lead to future developments and this was a great opportunity her company needed to seize.“What time is the client expected to arrive? What’s the plan for today?” she asked casually.Luca glanced over the client’s details and quickly found the itinerary.“Mr. Hark has already landed and is on the way to the factory. We originally planned to let him rest at the hotel before visiting the factory in the afternoon, but he seemed very diligent and moved up the schedule.”Luca reported everything she knew.Darcy nodded.“Why the sudden change? The client didn’t even check in and went straight to the factory?”She found it somewhat strange.Usually, she would not pay much attention to something like this, but the more she thought about it, the weirder it seemed.“It was the client’s request, so Troy had no choice but to take him to
“I’ll stay hidden in the shadows to protect you. Tell me immediately if anything happens. We now share the same identity.”Fletcher reminded him again to ensure the success of the mission.“I know. It’s time now. I need to change clothes and meet the contact outside. You should be careful and get out quickly. Don’t let anyone notice you,” Quill responded impatiently, then turned and walked into the nearby washroom.He quickly changed into a new outfit and immediately began his disguise.The two of them had extremely distinct appearances and attracted attention easily, so they would disguise themselves whenever they went on missions.The more ordinary they looked, the less attention they would attract.They had to stay as discreet as possible to avoid being discovered by anyone.When Quill reappeared, he was still pushing the same suitcase, but no one could recognize him.It was as if he were a completely different person. Even his height seemed slightly altered.Fletcher did n
