All Chapters of Seven Days to Rewrite My Fate: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Not a single word was spoken among them during the entire journey home.The Hart family returned home with mixed feelings. The meeting they had initially hoped would provide a way out for the company had instead ended with a series of requirements they needed to fulfill.They had never expected Leonel to insist that the entire agreement be formally documented in a business contract, as though their family ties made no difference whatsoever.As soon as they sat down in the living room, Sofi let out a long sigh. “Paul, didn’t I tell you from the beginning that this problem must have something to do with Lyra?”When no one responded, Sofi continued, “She lives with Leonel. If she really wanted to help our family, she should have been able to persuade her husband not to make everything as difficult as he did earlier.”Ciara, who was sitting beside her, immediately nodded. She was becoming increasingly convinced that Lyra had deliberately left them to struggle, even though her older sister

“Dad, once we arrive at the office, the report you requested will be ready for you to review within an hour before we send it to Mr. Leonel.” Ciara set her cup on the table, then looked at Paul with a faint smile.“I hope Mr. Leonel keeps his word and provides assistance promptly once all the requested documents have been reviewed. At least that way, we can resolve the company’s problems as soon as possible.”Paul nodded slowly. “Let’s hope so. I don’t want to waste any more time.”“I’m sure everything will go smoothly as long as we meet his requirements.” Ciara showed no sign of anxiety. Instead, she sounded optimistic, as though the problem they were facing could still be resolved easily.They continued eating breakfast together in a much calmer atmosphere. Lighter, more cheerful conversations filled the Hart family’s morning.A little while later, Ciara spoke again in the same casual tone. “By the way, Dad, have you thought about what you suggested last night?”Paul looked up, whil

As promised, the documents from Hart Company arrived on Leonel’s desk just as lunchtime began.The man had actually been preparing to leave the office for lunch, but when he saw the documents, Paul had sent over, he changed his mind. He flipped through several pages, skimmed the reports and details of the proposed project, then handed them to his assistant for a more thorough review.After confirming that the documents would be reviewed promptly, Leonel finally headed toward the elevator. However, before he could step inside, his phone rang. Seeing the name on the screen, he frowned slightly before answering the call.“What is it, Grandma?”“Are you busy?”“Not particularly. Has something happened?”“I’m in the lobby of your office. Come have lunch with your grandmother.”Leonel fell silent for a moment before replying, “All right. I’m coming down now.”

“So, what have you decided?” Delilah asked before they parted ways.The elderly woman looked at Damien, hoping her grandson would reconsider his attitude. “I hope you can think more clearly as you face this problem. Don't make a decision based solely on what you want right now.”Delilah sighed softly before continuing. “Think about the consequences for other people, too.”Damien fell silent.He didn't offer any response to his grandmother's words, and Delilah didn't force him to. After exchanging a few more words with Leonel, the elderly woman finally decided to head home.Damien remained seated for a while, staring at the dining table as the waitstaff began clearing it. He knew his grandmother was waiting for an answer from him, but for the first time, he wasn't sure what he should say.He still wanted Lyra, but the more he thought about everything, the harder it became to ignore the possibility that she might no longer want him.Damien eventually decided to return to the office. He

Leonel was silent for a moment before answering Delilah's question.He then explained the general outline of the problems facing Hart Company, from the project that required additional funding to Paul's request for help in saving his company's financial situation.He also explained the agreement he had proposed, including the requirements for financial reports, details on how the funds would be used, and guarantees to ensure that Hastring Group wouldn't bear all the risks if the project failed to meet its targets.Delilah listened without interrupting.She nodded occasionally, but when Leonel finished explaining, the elderly woman merely furrowed her brow slightly. She knew her eldest grandson well. Leonel wasn't someone who readily offered help, especially when it involved large sums of money and the potential for losses.“Then why did you do it?” Delilah asked. “You usually avoid risky matters like this, especially when there's
