"No," I replied, shaking my head."I've already been speaking to you nicely. How else do you want me to change? Do you want me to grovel before you to make you satisfied?"I handed my phone to Donald. "If you really want to grovel, I won't stop you."Donald took the phone and glanced at it, his face darkening."What, you want to work with my husband and have me help support your son, yet this is how you treat me?" I questioned.Donald wanted to close his eyes, but Luna's bragging voice kept playing from the phone."Yeah, Aralyn is just so annoying. Otherwise, why would her own father rather invest in me than in her? I think you need to think carefully about this. There's a reason for everything."Donald never expected Luna to be this stupid.He had just talked to Luna about something, and she was already making a scene online.I chuckled and said, "You knew she stole my husband, yet you still invested in her. And after that, you come to me, saying you want to work together. Do

"Obviously. Your family's company is huge, which could help Donald climb a few levels. Plus, you're handsome, and you treat your woman well. It's enough to make a lot of women fall for you," I responded.Even if most men didn't have Julian's wealth but had his looks and personality, they would probably be more willing to settle down in marriage.Julian just didn't realize how great he was.I showed him another video.Julian watched it and was speechless. "They're being so blatantly obvious. Are they trying to make you notice?""Who knows?" I shrugged."By the way, do you have any events to attend?"If he stayed in the company all the time, Yasmin wouldn't even have a chance to meet him.Julian thought carefully and said, "There's a banquet tonight."Then, he quickly reassured me, "Don't worry. There's no way I'd be interested in other women."I didn't think much of it. "Feeling attracted to someone is normal. After all, she does look a little like me."As much as I disliked

I couldn't be bothered to handle it myself, so I subtly asked Mark about it. He was also extremely busy and barely had any time.That was when I remembered Alice's company offered this kind of service.Getting up, I walked to the window, gazing at the beautiful scenery outside for a long time before finally calling Alice."Hello?" Alice asked, surprised that I had time to call her.I smiled and said, "I want to introduce some business to your company. I need to get in touch with a few toy manufacturers."As I spoke, I sent her my requirements.Then, I asked, "Do you have any factories like this on your side?"Alice took a look to confirm my requirements and replied, "Yes, the market hasn't been doing well recently, so many similar factories haven't been able to get orders. When they heard that I could connect them with potential clients, they all came to me."Since these factories had no orders and weren't making much money, I said, "I'll cover the introduction fee, including t

Now that everyone's factory issues were resolved, they quickly nodded. "It's not that we didn't trust you. We've just been scammed too many times."The moment scams were mentioned, everyone had a shared experience."The demand from business partners keeps decreasing, and in order to keep our factories running, we've all been trying every possible way to find new collaborations. But during times like these, there are even more scammers."Sometimes they seem extremely legitimate. They wine and dine us and make us spend a fortune on them. But when it's time to sign the contract, they all just say they need to 'think about it.' Not a single one of them actually needed us to produce anything real because they couldn't afford the deposit."Many of them actually felt that the deposit policy was incredibly helpful to them. Otherwise, they would have lost a lot of money."When we first heard that you had so many orders for us, we actually thought you were a scammer too. During such a harsh

Julian gazed at me, amusement painted his usually cold voice. "I'll have to ask him about that."As he spoke, he called Mark and asked him to come over.The moment Mark heard, he immediately stopped what he was doing and rushed over. "Is something wrong?"Julian's amused gaze landed on me. "You can just talk to him."I told Mark about my side business that I had been secretly running and then explained my request. "Your task is to inform the factories whenever production needs to be increased. I'll handle everything else. But I'll give you a 20% commission. Are you interested?"Mark only needed a brief calculation to realize that 20% was a huge amount—it was practically free money falling from the sky.Of course, he wouldn't refuse. But since this was happening in front of his boss, he had to stay composed and consider Julian's opinion first.Mark looked at Julian and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Hughes?""I respect your decision," Julian replied in a neutral tone, revealing
