Laura immediately nodded to Desmond, confirming that she wanted to try. Desmond just stared at her cynically. He never believed in his niece's abilities. In Desmond's eyes, Laura was just like her stupid and incompetent niece.

Susan crossed her legs, covered her mouth with both hands and laughed dismissively. “Ha ha, you want to try to see Mr. Lancaster to explain the Smart City project? Are you out of your mind?”

Susan then exhaled deeply and continued, "Hmm, Laura, I don't mean to teach you, but I just want to remind you. You need to be self-aware; there's no need for excessive confidence. My father, who has met many great people, couldn’t meet him, and my brother couldn’t either—he even got hurt because of it. Even I couldn’t meet him, even though Young Master Lancaster is a big fan of mine.”

“Hmm, Susan is right. What qualifications do you have that make you worthy of meeting Young Master Lancaster?” Kelly asked, who had been silent until then.

This time, Susan looked at Laura wi

  • 66. You Don't Know Me Well

    Laura looked awkward after hearing Danny's response. But this time, her face turned red, and she asked herself, “Why does my face feel hot after hugging him? Could it be that I'm starting to like my ex-husband?” The blonde woman turned back to Danny and said again, "No, there's no way I could fall in love with him. What just happened must be because I was too happy to hear this news. How could I not be happy? I’ve successfully signed an agreement with Mr. Lancaster, and he’s even put my name on the project.” This time, Laura gave Danny a sharp expression. She crossed her arms over her chest, displaying her arrogance. “Danny, don’t misunderstand. I did it spontaneously because I was too happy to hear the news.”“Oh, I didn’t take it seriously either,” Danny replied calmly.“But I’m not ungrateful. I’m sure you played a part in this. We discussed this project together before, and this time, you’re working as Miss Bennet’s bodyguard; she must have informed Mr. Lancaster about your stat

  • 65. Don't Joke Around With Me

    Jennifer stopped in her tracks and turned back to Danny. “Is there anything else, sir?” Danny raised his hand briefly and said, “No need, I'll just go there!”Danny immediately grabbed the signed proposal from the table and headed toward the meeting room. However, he paused briefly in front of Sharon’s office to give her some instructions.“Sharon, within the next thirty minutes, transfer thirty million in investment funds to the Huxley group!” Danny exclaimed.Sharon nodded silently, daring not to say anything. Especially since her boss had already approved the proposed project. She also considered the project highly promising for the future, so an investment of one hundred million was nothing.However, since the project was proposed by the Huxley family, she felt unsatisfied, especially with Laura, who often spoke ill of Danny and called him a gigolo.Danny immediately headed to the main meeting room and opened the door. At that moment, Laura was sitting stiffly with her hands clas

  • 64. Will She Make It?

    “Oh, never mind. You guys figure this out, but Laura, if you fail, I'll come to the Phoenix Crest Group office myself. Either way, this project must proceed. It's the only way to improve our family's social status!” Grandma said seriously.At that moment, Laura nodded and quickly grabbed her car keys. She didn’t want to miss the opportunity to meet Mr. Lancaster, especially since she needed to prove herself capable. She wasn’t just a beautiful woman who was constantly underestimated by her family; she had skills.Up until now, Laura was still hurt that Grandmother had given this project to her uncle and cousin. Laura had worked tirelessly on this proposal, even staying up all night, but Grandmother didn’t care. Just because she was young and a woman, Grandmother didn’t give her any responsibility.At least let Laura try first; if she fails, it can be handed over to another member of the Huxley family. But that’s not how it went.This frustration made Laura even more determined and con

  • 62. Help Me, Please!

    Matthew could only stare in shock upon hearing Mr. Cooper's words. Having frequently engaged in illegal activities, Matthew was well aware of Mr. Cooper's character.The man who served as Victor Raines' mentor was known for his ruthlessness and cruelty. Whatever he said, he would do. As was the case just now, if Mr. Cooper ordered his men to beat him up and throw him into a ravine, it was not beyond the realm of possibility that it would happen.Matthew grew even paler with fear. There was no other option for him but to beg Danny to save him."Danny, please do something!" Matthew pleaded, still with a haughty tone.Danny merely glanced at him briefly, raising one eyebrow. No words came out of his mouth.Meanwhile, Matthew looked at Mr. Cooper's followers. They were all getting closer to him, making his face grow even paler.He quickly approached Danny and knelt down, clinging to his thigh like a child who didn't want to be left behind by his parents. "Danny, please help me! For the sa

  • 61. The Change Of Attitude

    Victor Raines immediately raised his hand, giving a signal to his ten henchmen to attack Danny."Take him down!"One by one, the ten men charged toward Danny, fists clenched. As they closed in, each of them unleashed a barrage of blows, leaving no room for Danny to breathe."Enjoy this!" shouted one of Victor's ten men.Bugh! Bugh!Victor Raines was once again stunned at the moment. Danny was able to fight off ten of his men with his bare hands. All of this happened in less than ten minutes."He defeats ten men?" Victor whispered.He even noticed that Danny's appearance still looked neat, just as it had when he saw him a few minutes ago.Victor Raines began to think about Danny's skills. With trembling hands, Victor contacted Mr. Cooper again and told him what had happened."Mr. Cooper, Danny Raphael just took down the ten fighters you sent, and it happened in less than ten minutes. I need your men again," Victor said with a trembling voice.Mr. Cooper, who was enjoying coffee with th
