Filed to story: The Regretful Billionaire: An Unpredicted Reunion
As long as Graham said the word, the Glasses would murder her, no questions asked.
That was why she didn’t want to anger Graham now.She had nothing to gain from it.
“I was just saying.”
She lowered her head, not wanting to argue with him.She couldn’t let Graham know that she wanted to antagonize Danika.She couldn’t let her evil intentions show.
“You better be.If I know what you’re up to, there will no longer be a spot for you in the Zellwegers.”He turned and left the dining room.He had lost his appetite.
Only Rowena and Jolene were left in the dining room.
After being punished by Danika last night, Jolene was angry but also afraid.She thought that Danika was like a demon.
Smiling on the outside but vicious when she attacked.However, she didn’t want to let it go just like that.She had to do something, especially during the party tonight.She had to humiliate Danika so that everyone would know that Jolene was the true daughter of the Zellwegers.
Danika would only be an embarrassment.
“You must be on your best behavior today, Jolene.You cannot lose to Danika,”
Rowena instructed.Tonight was Danika’s debut in Bardoff City.
“Don’t worry, mom.I’ve got it covered.”
Jolene was brimming with confidence.She didn’t believe that she would lose to Danika.
Relocating Headquarters
Danika was actually very busy.She had decided to place the company headquarters in Bardoff City.
That way, she would be able to develop her company better.
Hence, yesterday, she asked Jade and Alfred to come to Bardoff City.
They were important people in the company.
Danika would have to discuss it with them beforehand.
As for why she called on Alfred despite knowing of his twisted intentions, it was because she didn’t have much manpower.
Alfred’s resume was brilliant.
Besides, he hadn’t done anything overboard.
Danika decided to ignore it for now and keep him at arm’s length.
Danika picked them up from the airport.
“Miss Zellweger.”
“Danika.”
Alfred and Jade walked toward her, smiles on their faces.
Danika nodded at them and gestured for them to get in the car.She would first take them to the hotel, then talk about relocating the company’s headquarters.
Jade was full of curiosity.Are you really the missing daughter of the Zellwegers, Danika?”
“Probably.”
Some things were too complicated to explain to Jade, so Danika had to use that as an excuse.Alfred looked at Danika, saying nothing.There was no telling what he was thinking.Mortimer had told him to get closer to Danika because he knew of her identity.
Alfred was supposed to make her fall in love with him before she returned to the Zellwegers.
That way, he would become the Zellwegers’ son-in-law.
With a few manipulative schemes, he might even be able to take hold of the entire Zellweger family.But not everything was in his control.He had not made Danika fall in love with him, and Danika had already returned to the Zellwegers.
Danika was completely out of his league now.He had a vague feeling that his plan was not going to work.
These few days in Parrington, he had been doing a lot of thinking.He couldn’t really stay in Danika’s company working for her, could he? He would have no future.
In his eyes, Danika’s company was just arun-of-the-mill.
Nothing big would come of it.
But before he thought of an escape plan, Danika had contacted him, asking him to be in Bardoff City with her and Jade to discuss relocating the company.
Alfred didn’t know what she was thinking.She knew he was Mortimer’s son, yet she hadn’t fired him.
Instead, she was using him.It was against all logic.
Not long after, the car arrived at the hotel entrance.
They walked in, and after checking Jade and Alfred in, they went to the restaurant.It was time to talk about business.
Danika ordered some food.
“Let’s eat while talking.”
“Alright.”
Jade nodded.She didn’t have to be polite around Danika.
“I called you both here to talk about relocating the company.”
Danika had already renamed La Vie Jeen Rose Designs to Jeneration Group, which showed how ambitious she was.
Jade nodded as she ate.She already knew beforehand.
“Moving here wouldn’t be a problem, but we won’t have a good standing.Someone might sabotage us.”
La Vie Jeen Rose Designs was just an insignificant company, but now Danika’s reunion with the Zellwegers had generated some traffic.
But that could not change the fact that it was just a small company.
“Don’t worry.I’m the daughter of the Zellweger family now.No one will dare to openly attack us.”
It was because of this that Danika decided to move now.She wasn’t sure if she could stay in the Zellwegers for long.
If she left, it would be harder to relocate.That was why she had to move now.
Eustace Is a Small Fry
Jade nodded when she heard Danika’s words.She thought that they made sense.
“That’s true.The Zellwegers are part of the Ten Elites.Those people would be afraid of them.They probably wouldn’t go against you.”
“It’s settled then.”
Danika had made her decision.
“The only thing you guys have to do in Bardoff City for these few days is to look for an office complex for Jeneration Group.”
She could do it herself, but she had to take care of things in the Zellweger family.She simply didn’t have the time.
“No problem.”
Jade nodded.
Danika took two agreements out of her bag and placed them on the table.These are the two companies that are now under my name.Take them and place them under Jeneration Group.”Jade and Alfred each took one of the documents. They were surprised.You’re certainly ambitious.You want to be part of even these industries.”
“Of course.These are money-making businesses.Why wouldn’t I do it?”
Danika smiled.She wasn’t taken seriously yet.She’d have to be one step ahead of everyone else.
They put the agreements away.
Danika looked at Alfred, who hadn’t said a word since he arrived.His thoughts were unreadable.
“Please get me a cup of coffee, Jade,” Danika said.
Jade was about to tell her to get the waitress, but then she saw Danika’s gaze on Alfred.She understood immediately and got up.
“Alright.”
After she left, Danika smiled at Alfred and asked, “You haven’t said anything since you got down the flight.Penny for your thoughts?”
Since she was being direct, Alfred didn’t beat around the bush.
“You probably already know of my identity.Why are you still keeping me?”
Not only was she keeping him, but she was also involving him in huge company matters as if she wanted him to take responsibility.
Alfred couldn’t figure her out.
“Your identity and your capabilities aren’t mutually exclusive.I bear no interest in your identity.As long as you don’t do anything to hurt the company, I couldn’t care less about whose son you are, “Danika said.
Alfred raised his eyebrows and said, smirking, “I approached you with an ulterior motive.Why do you think I’d slave away for you since you already know who I am?”He wasn’t a fool.
