"It's been a while, Mr. Rowse," Daniel and Helen greeted.

"Mr. Rowse, it's our fault for not raising our daughter well. I'm so sorry!" Daniel said, giving Helen a quick glance. Helen hurriedly placed the gift box before Blake.

"Our daughter has been spoiled by us since young. Lately, she's been getting out of control, but please don't hold it against her. We've punished her and cut off her credit card! This is a small token of our appreciation and an apology on behalf of our daughter." Even though Casey had a broken leg, they knew better than to cross Blake.

Whether in business or dealing with the underground network, the Miller family relied heavily on Blake and Doxcon Group's influence. So, despite thinking Blake might have gone too far, they had no choice but to swallow their pride and apologize.

Otherwise, the projects they worked so hard to secure would be terminated, and they might even have to give up the benefits they'd previously gained.

Throughout the conversation, Daniel and Helen focused entirely on Blake, not sparing a glance at Yolanda. To them, Yolanda was just a chubby, unattractive high schooler. They couldn't understand why she was even sitting at the table with Blake, and they dismissed her as unimportant.

Blake waved them off.

"You should apologize to Ms. Henderson. I can't do anything if she chooses not to forgive you."

"Ms. Henderson?" Daniel and Helen exchanged confused looks. They didn't see this woman Blake mentioned in the room.

Finally, Daniel mustered the courage to ask, "Mr. Rowse, do you have Ms. Henderson's contact?"

Blake glared at him. "What are you talking about? Ms. Henderson is right here next to me!"

Daniel froze, then gasped as he turned to look at Yolanda in shock. "You're Ms. Henderson?" Yolanda didn't even glance at him. She calmly sipped her juice and replied, "My name is Yolanda." Daniel and Helen were speechless.

Daniel's face fell. He swallowed his pride and said, "Ms. Henderson, I'm sorry I didn't recognize you!"

It was clear that Daniel's success

was due in large part to his adaptable nature. Just moments ago, he had looked down on Yolanda, but the instant he realized she was the "Ms. Henderson Blake had been referring to, his attitude changed entirely.

He became nothing but respectful toward her. Regardless of what he was thinking, his outward behavior was impeccable. Hearing his apology, Yolanda finally looked up and gave Daniel a brief, appraising glance. He was an interesting man.

"This is a

Helen quietly clenched her fists behind her back as Daniel gave Yolanda the check. She had never, heard of a wealthy family's daughter being so overweight. They couldn't afford to offend Blake, but who did this ugly girl think she was, acting so high and mighty?
