"Ms. Lily wants to expand the company, but the Reyes Group won't give her too much support on that," the assistant explained. "She thought she'd look for an external collaborator, so she thought of you." Daniel glanced at the attached project proposal. One must say that Lily was a smart woman-the proposal was almost perfect. She generously prioritized the collaborator, making it easy for someone like her to attract an investor.

Although Daniel was quite interested in the project, he instinctively looked into the room.

The assistant laughed at his little move, restraining his laughter when he saw his serious face.

"Got it," Daniel said flatly. "Take the proposal. There's no rush in the collaboration. Let's observe what she'll do next."

"Got it."

"Also..."

"I know." The assistant smiled. "It must be kept a secret from Ms. Maisie!"

Daniel glared at his assistant, who quickly grabbed the proposal and ran away.

Amanda nervously checked the time in the meeting room. Time seemed to pass unusually slowly, annoying her. She didn't pay attention to the important agendas being reported.

When it was her turn to make a decision, she stuttered through it as everyone's eyes were on her. She quickly ran away as soon as the time was up.

She asked to meet Lily at a high-end buffet restaurant nearby for lunch. Although she had reserved the seats, she arrived half an hour early to show respect to this female entrepreneur, who was also Daniel's

ex.

The saying went, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

She smirked, speculating that Lily must have returned for Daniel.

Being married for a few years, Lily might still be in love with him. In terms of family background, appearance, and charisma, she was superior to Maisie. If Lily found out about Daniel dating Maisie, would she also hate Maisie?

The more Amanda thought about it, the more she believed her plan would work. Unable to fight Maisie directly, she would get Lily to stir things up.

"Ms. Amanda?"

A voice interrupted her thoughts.

Amanda turned and saw a charismatic lady smiling at her. "You're Ms. Amanda, right? Ms. Lily is happy to be dining here today. She has taken her seat over there!"

"What?" Amanda was shocked. "S-She's here?"

"Yes! Didn't you send me the reservation details yesterday? She knew where the seats were, so she came early!"

The lady walked ahead while Amanda caught up, mumbling to herself. She had never encountered a situation where the guest had arrived before the host.

She had arrived half an hour early, but Lily had come before her? What time did she get there? Did she come as soon as the restaurant opened? Lily was indeed something else.

Before Amanda finished mumbling to herself, a shocking image appeared in front of her. Specialty dishes were placed before Lily, who was eating to her heart's content. She was over the moon, not even noticing Amanda standing in front of her.

"Ms. Lily!" The lady patted Lily and signaled her.
