Claire felt a bit down after hanging up the phone.<\/p>\n

Concerned, Charlie asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s wrong?\u201d<\/p>\n

Claire briefly explained Lady Wilson\u2019s request to Charlie.<\/p>\n

Charlie nodded thoughtfully and suggested, \u201cWhy not ask Emgrand Group to prepay 20 million dollars for the project?\u201d<\/p>\n

Claire gasped in disbelief, exclaiming, \u201cHow could I possibly do that?! They\u2019re out of our league! It\u2019s an honor to work with them; we\u2019d be looked down upon if we asked for payment before the project even begins.\u201d<\/p>\n

Internally, Charlie thought, \u2018Your husband owns Emgrand Group\u2014how could anyone look down on you for requesting a mere 20 million dollars?!\u2019<\/p>\n

However, Claire was oblivious to his thoughts and remained unaware of what was going through his mind.<\/p>\n

After a sigh, she said, \u201cI think I should go talk to Mr. Koch.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll come with you,\u201d Charlie offered.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, you can\u2019t,\u201d Claire replied, \u201cWho brings their husband to meetings? That\u2019s just unprofessional.\u201d<\/p>\n

Then, she added, \u201cJust stay at home. If you\u2019re really bored, go out. There\u2019s not much to do here anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seeing her determination, Charlie chose to remain silent.<\/p>\n

He understood that Claire had always been an independent and committed businesswoman, eager to achieve success through her own efforts.<\/p>\n

He figured it wouldn\u2019t hurt to let her give it her best shot. If things didn\u2019t work out, he would always be there to support her discreetly.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

After breakfast, Claire scheduled a meeting with Daniel Koch and drove to Elite Vault Enterprise on her own.<\/p>\n

Elite Vault Enterprise is one of the largest building materials companies in Aurous Hill and across the southern region. The company specializes in aluminum building materials and is a key supplier for major real estate projects.<\/p>\n

Daniel Koch came from humble beginnings but struck it rich when he married into a wealthy family. With the support of his wife and her family, he was able to launch and grow his business into a significant enterprise.<\/p>\n

He was also known locally as a hen-pecked husband. Despite his wife\u2019s less-than-attractive appearance, he had never been involved in any affairs or scandals, which earned him a solid reputation as a devoted husband.<\/p>\n

His business was situated on the outskirts of the city, occupying a vast factory that spanned thousands of acres.<\/p>\n

When Claire arrived at the office building, Daniel was already in the lobby, waiting for her.<\/p>\n

His face broke into a warm smile as soon as he spotted her. He approached Claire, extended his hand, and said, \u201cHi, Miss Wilson! Welcome! I should have arranged for a car to pick you up, I apologize!\u201d<\/p>\n

Claire shook his hand politely, responding, \u201cMr. Koch, it\u2019s my pleasure.\u201d<\/p>\n

She tried to retract her hand, but Daniel held onto it tightly, refusing to let go, and even tightened his grip further.<\/p>\n

After putting in some effort, Claire finally managed to free her hand from his grasp. She shot him a wary glance and said, \u201cMr. Koch, you\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Daniel sheepishly scratched his head and chuckled. \u201cI\u2019m so sorry! I\u2019ve heard so many rumors about how stunning Miss Wilson is, and I\u2019m completely captivated now that I get to meet you in person. I didn\u2019t mean to frighten you; please forgive me!\u201d<\/p>\n

Claire felt a bit reassured by his candid admission and swift apology.<\/p>\n

Daniel gestured toward the office, smiling, \u201cMiss Wilson, let\u2019s head to my office!\u201d<\/p>\n
