Dulcie had almost figured out what kind of a person Eason was.


    Today, she nned to visit his house with Alyan to see if she could invite him out once more.


    At ten oclock in the morning in Medican, Alyan drove Dulcie to the entrance of Easons vi.


    The guards at the gates stopped them, after which one of them recognized Alyan and politely inquired, Mr.


    Jones, what brings you here today? Kindly let Eason know that Id like to see him.


    Theres something I need to discuss with him.


    Please wait a moment.


    As the guard walked away, Dulcie felt a tinge of nervousness wash over her.


    Worried that her visit might be in vain, she anxiously tightened her grip on her handbag.


    Upon seeing this, Alyan gave her a reassuring pat on the shoulder. Soon, the guard returned, opening the gates to the vi and gesturing for the two of them to enter.


    As Dulcie nced around at the vis decor, she couldnt help but be a bit surprised.


    She hadnt expected a formidable man like Eason to have such girlish taste.


    The entire vi felt like it belonged to a fairy tale princess, with each corner featuring a child-friendly theme.


    Alyan exined, Easons daughter loves fairy tales, so the whole ce is designed around her tastes.


    Shes the most important person in his life.


    If you want to get his support, winning his daughter over could be a good approach.


    Dulcie nodded at him with gratitude.


    He had given her an idea.


    As the two of them were led into the vi by the servants, they spotted Eason calmly waiting for them in the living room. He recognized Dulcie as the woman who had been beside Lucinda, with a subtle look of curiosity in his eyes.


    Alyan quickly stepped forward and introduced Dulcie.


    This is my best friend, Dulcie.


    Upon hearing this, Easons face lit up.


    With a sly grin on his face, he teased.


    With such a lovely friend, its no surprise youve been ignoring all those women who show interest in you.


    Alyan wore a friendly smile as he smoothly transitioned to the purpose of their visit, saying, Were here with a request.


    Please, listen to what Dulcie has to say.


    Since Alyan had already set the stage, Dulcie took a deep breath and began to carefully make her submission.


    Mr. Adams, I understand its rather sudden for us to show up without making an appointment, but I assure you, what Im about to say wont bring you any harm.


    Im sure you know Hollis and the extent of his influence.


    By now, hes Likely aware of your meeting with Lucindast night.


    Given his temperament, do you truly believe hell stand by and do nothing? Your daughter is clearly precious to you, but can you realistically be by her side every hour of the day? The second Hollis gets a chance, hell- Thats enough! Before Dulcie could finish, Eason cut her off.


    II1 protect my daughter.


    That shouldnt be a concern of yours.


    Ive already made it clear that I wont work with you, and nothing will change my mind about that.


    Now, please leave.


    Easons face darkened, and a wave of tension swept over Dulcie.


    If her approach had truly angered Eason, could it have also jeopardized Lucindas chances of cooperating with him in the future?
