"Sorry, I didn't mean it that way. You must also know that Daisy is a rather private person. She always keeps her troubles to herself. Even though she hasn't mentioned you, that doesn't mean that she doesn't care about you, " Belinda defended Daisy with an anxious look. She didn't want to drive a wedge between Daisy and Zemo.
"Don't worry. I was just cracking a joke. I'm not blaming her." Zemo chuckled lightly. He didn't believe that Daisy had forgotten him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have called out his name the moment they met.
"That's good. Daisy is an introverted person. As her friends, we have to be more patient with her." Belinda breathed a sigh of relief. She felt so embarrassed that she didn't know how to bring up the cooperation between their companies.
"Well, then, let's talk about business first." While Belinda was contemplating on how to change the topic, Zemo opened his mouth first and indirectly saved her from further embarrassment.
"Yes, of course!" Belinda took out the documents that Simon had prepared beforehand and handed them to Zemo. After finding out that the president of the YD Group was Daisy's friend, Belinda didn't feel as nervous as before.
Zemo nodded every now and then as he perused the documents. He was satisfied with the proposal, but a few improvements would make it perfect.
"Ms. Shangguan, your proposal is very impressive. But it could still improve and become perfect. If I decide to cooperate with the YS Financial Group, I hope you can meet our requirements." Zemo folded the documents and stared at Belinda.
"Of course, we can. Our aim is to provide high quality products and services to our customers." Belinda was excited to hear Zemo's decision. She knew that he must have decided to cooperate with YS Financial Group because she was Daisy's friend. Rumor had it that the president of the YD Group was a cold and cruel man, but he was actually a completely different person.
"Great! I'm looking forward to the revised plan." Zemo handed the documents back to Belinda. He couldn't deny that the reason he chose YS Financial Group as his partner was partly because of Daisy, but he had to admit that they had a good proposal. He wasn't the type of person to cooperate with a company just to please a girl.
"Mr. Ling, thank you for giving us the opportunity. We'll be sure to give you a satisfactory revision, " Belinda said with a gentle smile. She was more curious about the story between Zemo and Daisy. They must have had a close relationship with each other. Otherwise, Zemo wouldn't do h
e composure. He was exhausted from his poor sleep the night before.
"Yes! You look exhausted. Let me drive." Belinda's heart broke at the sight of Duke's tired face, but she carefully kept her worry to herself.
"That's not necessary. Do you want to have lunch out or at home?" Duke asked as he turned to her. He didn't ask how the meeting went.
"Come on, we just had breakfast! I don't want to have lunch now!" Belinda widened her eyes in disbelief. They came here right after breakfast! She wasn't hungry at all. Did Duke think she was a pig?
"Yes, we had breakfast. But it's already noon. It's time for lunch now, " Duke said as he started the engine. He decided by himself to take her to a restaurant.
"Please, I'm not hungry at all. Let's go home first! We can have lunch when I get hungry, okay?" Belinda looked at Duke with a pair of imploring eyes. She had no appetite right now.
"Are you sure?" Duke asked, fixing her a doubtful look.
"I'm sure! I want to get some rest. I'm not feeling well." Belinda had a restless sleep last night because of her sore wounds. She was eager to go back home and get a good rest.
"Do your wounds still hurt?" Belinda's response made Duke worry. He turned the steering wheel and changed the route without hesitation.
"It's fine. I just want to get some rest, " Belinda replied vaguely, not comfortable showing weakness in front of someone else.
Duke cast a doubtful glance at her, but kept quiet. He hit the accelerator hard and drove towards their house at full speed. The silver Maybach in the autumn season was particularly dazzling, attracting everyone's attention as they sped through the streets. Eventually, they reached the Leng house.
