Kaze picked up the fork and twirled it right in the center of the plate. He twirled a big clump of pasta onto his fork.The meatball and pasta went well together in one big bite. Kaze could feel his belly getting full.Edmund did not reject the food even though it was simple. He wolfed down the pasta. The pasta seemed to be cooked from scratch, and the freshness showed. “The money isn’t what I’m worried about. My concern is that she’d storm off,” Edmund said earnestly after swallowing a mouthful of food. He voiced his concern. Everything else could take a back seat since this issue took precedence. It was not easy to get the target where they wanted her to be, so the last thing Edmund wanted was to let her slip away. “Relax. She won’t leave until she gets what she wants. Don’t worry about that,” Kaze said indifferently and took another bite. The pasta was chewy. Hunger was the likely reason why Kaze found the food rather appetizing today. “Can I really be sure abo

Though Edmund trusted Kaze’s judgment, unrest stirred within him. Edmund assigned his people to keep watch at every exit, ensuring that he would find out the moment Lyra tried to leave. Now that Lyra had made the trip to Westeros, she would not leave before taking hold of her objective. Plus, Edmund was not going to let her leave anyway. Considering Lyra’s arrogance and all the trouble she started, she was not getting away on Edmund’s watch. Heck, Edmund was determined to take her down. The timing was not right since Kaze had ordered him to stay put. Edmund had to be patient and wait it out. Nevertheless, Kaze said that Lyra needed a wake-up call. Maybe Edmund would get a peek into her true thoughts. If Lyra did not mind and stuck around, it would prove that Kaze was right all along. Despite his jitters, Edmund was willing to bet on it because of his trust in Kaze. The news made Charles uneasy. He had no idea how he was going to break the news to Lyra. The latter might ju

It was a source of Darcy’s frustration. “The proposal is perfect, but why aren’t the clients happy? They keep picking it apart.” Darcy was baffled. Anxiety ate her up. “If this doesn’t work out, I’ll need to figure something else out.“Maybe I can reach out to Mr. Hark again. He’s a big client from the North State. I’m sure he can decide whether to participate in the project.” Darcy had high hopes for the guy. Russell had not been in contact since their last encounter. He did not appear keen on the company’s business ventures. Since Russell had expressed some level of interest before, Darcy had to make the effort and reach out. There may still be hope to salvage this. Darcy had always known that opportunities came to those who were ready for them. She was determined to seize every opportunity. Even when the odds were stacked against her, she had to reach for success. Luca brought coffee. Darcy had been behind her desk the whole day. She did not even step out of h

“What’s the name of your company?” the receptionist asked while on the phone. “We are from Quintessential Group’s branch office. We’ve worked with Mr. Hark before. Can you let him know that Ms. Quint would like to see him?” Luca replied with a smile. Darcy stood in the lobby and observed her surroundings. The office building was in a prime location right in the heart of the city. It took a certain type of capacity to open a company in the area, and it spoke volumes about its connections. Darcy looked for a spot to sit down while waiting for a response. Luca watched cheerfully as the receptionist communicated with management. The receptionist kept a smile on her face throughout. Once the call was over, she turned to Luca with a practiced grin.“I’m sorry, but Mr. Hark isn’t at work today. His secretary will be down in a minute to talk to you.” The receptionist conveyed the message. Everything else hinged on the situation at hand. Since Russell was not at work, Darcy

Since Julian’s family was powerful, Darcy had to put up with his attitude just to deal with him. However, she could not compromise her principles. Darcy could not put her pride aside. Still, she wanted to pursue an open and honest business relationship. Without the right connections, Darcy could not make progress on a lot of things. Despite her efforts, she had not been successful. It was causing her major distress. “Do I have to go with Mom’s suggestion? She will only mock and use me.” Darcy understood the way Agnes worked and was still in control of the situation. However, this was an opportunity she could not miss. Agnes enjoyed her cup of tea in the living room, not the least bit anxious. She could wait until her daughter came around. Sometimes, Agnes needed to give Darcy a little push. Soon enough, Darcy would understand that Agnes was only doing this for her own good instead of throwing a fit. Darcy tossed and turned that night, consumed by these thoughts.Aft
