?Chapter 913:


    Lillian nodded and then nced at Cedric, who was still in the room. “Is he going too?”


    Cedric shed a grin. “Am I included?”


    “Yes, your name’s on the list. Will you be attending?”


    Cedric chuckled, clearly seeing through the group’s motives.


    Dani remained determined. After their recent setbacks, these old fools were likely hoping to gain an advantage by negotiating with him.


    “Of course, I’ll attend. If I don’t, it will just terrify them.”


    Nina overheard this and thought Cedric and Dani made a perfect team. She was deeply impressed.


    Dani turned to her with a smile. “One day, I’ll find someone suitable for you.”


    Nina returned a smile, although her interest in marriage had waned.


    The meeting was scheduled for eight o’clock that evening.


    Dani had just wrapped up a multinational conference when Lillian entered. “Dani, they’ve arrived. All eight of them are here, but they’re trying to keep it under wraps to avoid any media attention that could embarrass them if it leaks that they’re here to negotiate. They’re dressed very inly.”


    Dani nodded and made her way downstairs with Lillian and Cedric. Initially, these people were worried, but their anxiety eased upon seeing Dani. Their posture improved visibly.


    Why? Dani was so pretty, they immediately assumed that she got what she had today by relying on men.


    Her slight build didn’t suggest a powerful CEO but rather resembled a television star.


    They believed she was outwardly dazzling, though internally, she might be feeling the pressure.

    The group exchanged looks, a mutual understanding passing between them.


    They suspected Cedric had orchestrated this business move, not Dani.


    Given her delicate demeanor, she appeared more as eye candy than a force in business.


    As Dani drew closer, their anxiety diminished.


    They had been standing, but before Dani even reached them, they had taken their seats.


    Noticing this, Dani’s smile widened. She turned to Cedric and whispered, “It seems they think I’m the easy target.”


    Dani and Cedric arrived, only to find that Hackett’s group had already made themselvesfortable. Pretending not to notice Dani, they remained clustered together, murmuring in hushed, secretive tones. Dani’s lips curved into a mocking smile.


    Only then did Hackett act as if he had just noticed Dani. With exaggerated surprise, he eximed, “Ms. Harper! What a rare sight! It’s been ages. I’ve been trying to invite you to dinner, but you keep turning me down.”


    He wasted no time in delivering a lighthearted reprimand.


    Dani held her smile, unbothered by Hackett’s remarks. But Hackett barely acknowledged her reaction, turning his attention to Cedric with a sudden change in attitude.


    His tone turned deferential. “Mr. Phillips, it’s been too long.”


    Hackett’spanions exchanged nces, eyeing Cedric before briefly ncing at Dani’s small frame. Chuckling, they stood up, offering Cedric warm and polite greetings.
