Chapter 124


    ire was a little dispirited after ending the call.


    Charlie asked out of concern, "What’s wrong?” 1


    ire briefly told Charlie about Lady Wilson''s request.


    Charlie nodded and suggested, “Why don''t you ask Emgrand Group to prepay 20 million dors for


    the project?"


    ire gasped in shock and said, "How can I do that?! They are out of our league, it''s a pleasure to


    work with them, we will be looked down upon if we ask them to pay before the execution of the


    project."


    Charlie shouted internally, ''Your husband owns Emgrand Group, how dare anyone look down on


    you for the mere 20 million dors?!''


    But ire couldn''t read his mind, she had no idea what he was thinking. 1


    After a sigh, she said, "I think I’ll better go and talk to Mr. Koch.”


    "I''ll go with you."


    "No, you can''t,” ire uttered, "Who brings their husbands to meetings? It''s so unprofessional." 5

    Then, she added, "Just stay at home, go out if you’re really bored. There''s nothing much to do at


    home anyway."


    Charlie decided to keep quiet after seeing her firm attitude.


    He knew that his wife had always been an independent and dedicated businesswoman, she hoped


    that she could achieve many aplishments with her own efforts. 2


    It wasn''t any harm to let her try her best. If it didn''t work, he was always there to help her secretly. 4

    After breakfast, ire made an appointment with Daniel Koch and drove to Elite Vault Enterprise


    alone.


    Elite Vault Enterprise was one of thergest building materialspanies in Aurous Hill and even in


    the South Region. It mainly engaged in various aluminum building materials and it was the


    indispensable supplier forrge-scale real estate projects. 2


    Daniel Koch was born to an impoverished family, however, he struck the jackpot when he married a


    wife from a rich and powerful family. Thanks to the help and support from his wife and her family, he


    was able to start and develop his business on such a massive scale. 3


    Daniel was also famously known as a hen-pecked husband. Although his wife was very ugly, he


    never had any sorts of affairs or rumors. Hence, he had built quite a good reputation in town as a


    good husband. 6


    Hispany was located on the outskirts of the city with arge factory that upied thousands of


    acres o fnd. 1


    ire drove to the entrance of the office building and Daniel was already there waiting in the lobby.


    Daniel put on an enthusiastic smile as soon as his eyes fell on her. He walked to ire, offered his


    hand, and said, "Hi, Miss Wilson, wee! I should have sent a car to you instead, I''m so sorry!” 4


    ire took his hand and shook it politely. "Mr. Koch, you''re wee." 4


    She wanted to withdraw her hand but Daniel clutched on her hand tightly and refused to let go, in


    fact, he held it tighter and tighter. 3


    ire used a lot of strength to finally pull her hand off his grip. She red at him and said with a


    wary expression, "Mr. Koch, you..." 5


    Daniel scratched his head andughed coyly. "I’m so sorry! I’ve heard a lot of rumors about how


    gorgeous and beautiful Miss Wilson is, and I’mpletely mesmerized now that I get to meet you


    in person today. I’m sorry for scaring you, please forgive me!" 2


    ire was a little relieved to see he was so frank about his behavior and the immediate apology. 2


    Daniel extended his arm towards the office and said with a smile, "Miss Wilson, let''s go to my


    office!"
