My Ex-husband Begs Me Back

Chapter 1458: Testing

Chapter 1458: Testing

The secretary's expression was clearly reluctant, but Daisy's words had come this far, and no matter what she said now, it would be futile.

Daisy spoke up as well: "You don't need to feel any burden or pressure. I'm not asking you to be with him for real. Right now, the person I trust the most by my side is you. I don't know who else besides you can help me?"

The secretary had been with Daisy for a long time, so the trust Daisy had in her was very high.

Besides the secretary, she was unwilling to involve anyone else in getting close to this man.

The secretary continued to wear a troubled expression and Daisy added: "Once the company is established, you can leave him. By then, I believe we will have figured out what needs to be tested, right?"

After repeated invitations from Daisy, the secretary finally nodded.

However, Daisy said: "There's no rush now. We are still in the initial stages of understanding. Today, I agreed to his proposal, and he will contact me voluntarily next. So, we don't need to make any moves against him for now, to avoid arousing suspicion."

Daisy's thoughts on certain matters were clear and rational. She certainly didn't want to be seen as a pawn.

Returning to the hotel, the translator arranged by Ayan immediately approached her.

Seeing the translator, Daisy's expression turned cold. She was no longer as warm and enticing as before. Sitting on the sofa, Daisy completely ignored the secretary, even looking at her indifferently as she asked, "What is it?"

The assistant was taken aback, but she was used to this behavior from Daisy, as she had been like this for the past few days, so she didn't find it strange.

She explained the matter at hand professionally. Kian had just contacted her on the phone. She said, "Miss Daisy, Kian arranged for me to accompany you to the project collaboration between Simpson Group and Tillery's Corporation. The project will officially start at the end of this month. Simpson Group will also start as a branch, and many business leaders from Hance City and Simpson Group will attend. Mr. Simpson wants you to prepare and attend with him."

Daisy frowned slightly. She didn't immediately react but remained silent, contemplating something.

The brief silence continued for a while, and then Daisy spoke, "Did Kian ask you to inform me?"

"Yes, Kian just called me. Since you were not here, I didn't inform you immediately."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Daisy looked at the assistant and asked, "How did Mr. Simpson react?"

The assistant hesitated, then said, "I'm sorry, Miss Daisy, I don't know. I don't have the qualifications to directly communicate with Mr. Simpson, so I apologize for not knowing Mr. Simpson's thoughts."

The assistant's humble response satisfied Daisy.

Daisy calmly said, "Alright, I understand what you said. You can go back to your room. I also need to rest."

She finished speaking calmly and then gave a look to the secretary to have her escort Ayan's assistant out.

After the two had left, Daisy's expression turned cold, and her voice was indifferent as she said, "Since he is being so distant with me, I'll just have to cooperate with someone else. But no matter what, I must win him over."

The secretary and even the bodyguard felt a bit helpless. Daisy's persistence was something they had never seen before.

They were just her subordinates and naturally had no right to make any demands on her.

Just as they were unsure of what to say, Daisy's phone rang.

It was Kerry calling.

Seeing Kerry's call, Daisy's expression froze for a moment. Kerry had been extremely cold towards her recently, so what could be the reason for him suddenly calling now?

As Daisy thought about this, her expression turned cold, and she spoke in a low voice, "Kerry?"

Kerry responded with a low "mm-hmm" and said, "Miss Daisy, let's have lunch together. I want to discuss in detail about the collaboration between us and Ayan."

"Is it just work?" Daisy asked, somewhat incredulously.

"Yes, it's about work," Kerry replied.

Kerry's response now seemed to pretend not to understand.

Daisy was a bit annoyed but couldn't directly say anything. She continued in a subdued tone, "Kerry, what's wrong with you?"

Kerry seemed a bit puzzled but of course, knew what she was asking. However, he pretended not to know and said, "Miss Daisy, I'm fine."

"Are you really okay?"

"Yes, I am." Kerry didn't want to continue beating around the bush with Daisy, so he quickly got to the point. He said, "Miss Daisy, do you have time for lunch today? If not, we can do it in the evening or tomorrow."

"Since it's work-related, I naturally have time. Let's do lunch then. I don't want any personal matters to interfere with work," Daisy said assertively.

Daisy's straightforwardness spoke volumes, but Kerry knew exactly what she was thinking and knew that Daisy always put herself first rather than work.

So when he heard Daisy say this, Kerry couldn't help but smile inwardly. He knew that Ayan's plan was working.

Kerry naturally didn't show any strangeness that would make Daisy suspicious and calmly said, "Let's have lunch at the restaurant downstairs at noon. Miss Daisy, what dishes would you like? I'll have them prepared in advance."

Kerry's question excited Daisy. She asked directly, "Kerry, are you in love?"

Kerry was taken aback and said, "No, Miss Daisy, why do you ask?"

"If you're not in love, then why did you forget what I like to eat?" Daisy was still excited, her expression dark and gloomy. She said, "Kerry, I don't understand what you mean. We've known

each other for many years. Don't you know what I like to eat?"

As Daisy asked these questions, Kerry was confident that he would win over Daisy and make her fall for him. His change had already caused a big reaction and unrest in Daisy.

Compared to Daisy's excitement, Kerry was much calmer. His gaze was calm and he said, "Miss Daisy, don't misunderstand. I simply thought that since you came to Hance City for Ayan, there might have been some changes in your preferences.

"You came Hance City for Ayan, right? So I thought you might change your likes to match Ayan's taste. Was I wrong in thinking that?" Kerry calmly inquired.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
