Chapter 224:
“It seems so.”
Keith couldn't hide the envy creeping into his voice. Had he known then, he would've made a move on Daniela.
Marrying her would have meant becoming the master of Olisvine.
Regret gnawed at Keith for not acting sooner.
A man behind them handed Alexander a business card with respect, saying, “Mr. Bennett, I've heard a great deal
about you. Let's get to know each other.”
Soon, business cards were passed to him one after another. Alexander couldn't help but feel as if both Daniela
and her projects were now in his grasp.
A growing sense of satisfaction washed over him.
Meanwhile, another man handed Alexander a valuable antique, and Keith noticed the man subtly signal a

Eight million dollars.
While Alexander was basking in the attention as people eagerly handed him their business cards, Cedric quietly
slipped into a seat in the very last row, keeping a low profile.
Lillian, ever observant, caught sight of him and waved, signaling for him to cforward to the front row.
Realizing there were no open seats available, she quickly arranged a place for him among the staff.
The subtle gesture sparked envy among the men in the room.

Alexander's smug demeanor instantly darkened at those words, and he snapped sharply, “It's just a way to show
off."
Keith chuckled and teased, “Feeling any regrets about divorcing Daniela now? Cedric looks like someone you
should keep an eye on!”
Alexander scoffed dismissively.
“That guy? Cedric and Daniela have known each other for ages. If there was ever anything between them, it
would've happened by now.”
But beneath his confident words, a flicker of unease crept in. Alexander couldn’t shake the worry that Daniela
might find out Cedric was the boy from her past. He knew this secret needed to stay buried—no one could ever
find out.
Noticing Alexander's unease, Keith smirked.
“Relax, | won't spill anything. But you oweone. When you seal the deal, throwa bone, okay?”
Keith's family specialized in hardware and interior design, after all.
Alexander nodded.
“Fine. Once | secure the project, the interior design is all yours.”
Keith's face lit up with excitement.
Alexander leaned closer, his voice sharp.

Keith nodded with a satisfied smile, feeling confident and victorious. He was certain that he could return home
with promising news to share.
Soon, the bidding meeting began right on time.
While everyone had anticipated Daniela’s presence, only the Elite Lux bidding team showed up.
They proceeded with an overview of the project and outlined the bidding schedule.
