Chapter 51
"Mr. Smith, it's an honor to have you here at theReyes Group!"
Isaac bowed enthusiastically, not feeling theslightest bit embarrassed about his subservientbehavior.Probably because this was Daniel. themost powerful man in Emerald City.
Daniel nodded slightly, his gaze falling on EmilyMs. Johnson, is this what you are up to? What acoincidence.IfI knew I should come over withyou."
His tone was casual and familiar
Isaac was taken aback. The way Daniel spokemade it sound like he had an appointment earlierwith Emily. Wasn't Emily the daughter theypicked up from the trash heap? Clumsy andinsecure, how could she know Daniel? A womanvalued by Daniel couldn't possibly be foolish andtimid.Byron stood up for Bianca, but was Biancareally that innocent?
Isaac's thoughts raced, and he smiled."So. Ms.Johnson and Mr. Smith had an appointment. Myapologies for interrupting your business, Mr. Smith He lightly slapped his own mouth, showing sincereregret. "Mr. Smith, did you come here specificallyfor Ms. Johnson?" he probed further.
Initially, he reluctantly signed the share transfercontract, but now he had realized that it was agood thing he did. If he had clashed with Emilyand she had Daniel backing her, Daniel's angercould cost him the entire Reyes Group. Now thatshe's a shareholder of the Reyes Group, she wouldcertainly want the company to thrive. Thisessentially meant the Reyes Group had aconnection to Daniel
Daniel's gaze swept over Isaac, who immediatelyfelt an invisible pressure. He shivered and realizedhe had overstepped. Someone like Daniel, hiswhereabouts and thoughts were not for someone ofIsaac's status to inquire about.
Emily's heart skipped a beat upon hearing Isaac'squestion. She instinctively looked at Daniel.meeting his deep, vortex-like eyes, as if they werepulling her in. Impossible! She hurriedly lookedaway, feeling that her thoughts were too self-indulgent and absurd.
dizzy during the few minutes of conversation, andhe signed the contract.
"Let's go!" A few minutes later, Daniel walked outcalmly and nodded to Emily. Behind him, theReyes Group's president followed like an assistant
"Okay!" Emily took a half step back, followingDaniel.
Daniel's expression remained calm, but his browtwγ hedslightly. His pace naturally slowed, givingEmily a chance to catch up and walk beside him.This subtle action went unnoticed by Emily. butIsaac,following behind, noticed. Indeed, Danieltreated Emily differently.
Isaac couldn't help but secretly observe Emily'sappearance. How could she be so lucky? Despiteher somewhat youthful face, her beauty wasundeniable. If not for her slight immaturity andthinness, her looks would have already made her atopic in social circles. No wonder Daniel
recognized her potential so early
He personally pressed the elevator button, sendingthe two off with a smile."Mr. Smith, Ms. lohnson.take care."
"Wait!" Emily suddenly spoke as the elevatordoors were about to close.
"Ms. ohnson, any instructions?" Isaac's attitudewas worlds apart from when he first met EmilyEmily naturally understood it was because ofDaniel's presence. This was good; her entry intothe Reyes Group would likely be smoother.
About Byron, I'll come by later...
'No rush, no rush. He deserves to suffer for hisfoolishness.Come tomorrow if youre free. No. callme tomorrow, and I'll send a driver to pick you up
Isaac's flattery was obvious, but he didn't mind. Heeven enjoyed it.
Emily raised an eyebrow."Alright!'
As soon as she finished speaking, the elevatordoors closed. The atmosphere suddenly becametense.
Emily thought for a moment and said,"Mr. Smiththank you.
Daniel's six-foot height made the 5.5-foot Emilyappear even more petite.
"Thank me for what?" He slightly turned and
looked down, making them even closer, as if Emilywas enveloped in his embrace from York's
perspective. The height difference made Emily's
heart race. She lowered her gaze, trying not to lookinto his eves.His gaze was too deep,almosthypnotic,making her thoughts uncontrollable.
Because of you, Mr. Reyes's attitude towards mehas changed significantly. My entry into the ReyesGroup will be much smoother," Emily answeredhonestly.
Daniel raised an eyebrow, a bit surprised. He hadworried she might suffer, but it seemed he hadunderestimated her abilities. In a short time, shenot only protected herself well but also gained
considerable benefits.
"Helping you is my honor," Daniel said calmly
Emily was stunned. His tone was the same asusual. But why did these words feel so warm,making her ears turn red? No wonder so manypeople wanted to be Daniel's wife. He possessedtop-tier looks, power, and was a gentleman withimpeccable manners. He didn't even ask how shesecured the job from Isaac.
In the confined space of the elevator, the silencemade the atmosphere tense. York felt the mostuncomfortable. He thought he shouldn't be in theelevator but should be waiting in the car.
Fortunately,the elevator finally arrived
he car was parked by the roadside downstairs
Despite Daniel's calm demeanor, his long legs
moved quickly when he got out, giving York adeeper understanding.Daniel treated Emilydifferently. York quickly opened the car door
As soon as Daniel got in, his face darkened. "Don'tget in."
At that moment, Emily had one foot in the car.She paused at Daniel's words. Her ears picked upthe faint sound.
'Mr. Smith, get out!"
Emily's face changed, and she reached out,grabbing Daniel's hand, pulling him towards herwith all her strength.
