"Very well, I'll make my way up," declared Walter, his voice echoing in the room as he exited.Quinn merely

nodded in acknowledgment, his gaze following Walter until he disappeared around the corner leading to the

elevators. Upon reaching the CEO's office, Walter knocked lightly on the door. Noticing it was slightly ajar, he

gently pushed it open.Inside, he found Alexander lounging comfortably on the couch, flipping through some

files."Alexander," Walter greeted, breaking the silence.

Lifting his gaze from the files, Alexander acknowledged Walter's presence with a simple, "Take a seat."With a

subtle nod of understanding, Walter settled across from him. "What's the urgency of this late-night summons,

Alexander?" he inquired.In response, Alexander casually tossed the file he was holding in Walter's direction.

"You're aware of the issue with restrictions concerning our freight company?""l am," Walter confirmed, "I thought

that was already resolved?""It was," Alexander admitted, "but there are still slingering questions.""Which

are?" Without a word, Alexander lit up a cigarette, leaned back on the couch, and gazed at Walter with an

indifferent expression. "That company that targeted ours, you've had dealings with them before. How much do

you know about them?" After a moment of thoughtful silence, Walter finally responded, "We've collaborated with

numerous companies. Could you specify which one you're referring to?""TOPSUN." Walter paused briefly before

recognition dawned on him. "Ah, them."

free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you!

Alexander's eyebrows twitched slightly at this, but he remained silent, patiently waiting for Walter to continue.

Picking up the file from the table, Walter began flipping through it as he spoke. "I've interacted with them twice.

The first collaboration was satisfactory, but during the second, they started cutting corners.""They proposed a

long-term deal with us, and | kept pushing for a better offer. Eventually, they grew frustrated, turned hostile, and

backed out. Could this be related to our current situation?"

Alexander remained silent, his gaze fixed on Walter. The smoke from his cigarette wafted between them,

creating a thin veil of tension. Despite the intense atmosphere, Walter's expression remained unchanged. His

usual smile still adorned his face.

Drawing the last puff from his cigarette, Alexander leaned forward to stub it out in the ashtray. "Perhaps," he

responded ambiguously."Is this the reason you summoned me, Alexander?""Partially, but not entirely.""There's

more?" Alexander's gaze lifted, his piercing eyes scrutinizing Walter's face for a long moment.

The last the had given Walter such a penetrating look was at his wedding to Freya."Walter, you've been with

the company for a considerable time, always diligent and meticulous in your work. But remember, as crucial as

work is, it's equally important to balance it with life. Don't neglect your family because of it."The remark seemed

to show concern for Walter, but upon deeper reflection, it could be interpreted as a gentle admonition to pay

more attention to Freya. Or, delving even deeper, it hinted that a man of Walter's caliber could excel anywhere.

Why then, would he lower himself to merely marry into the Kennedys?

Despite his handsyear-end bonus and executive salary, Walter held no shares in the company. Yet, he

dedicated himself entirely to it, never faltering in his duties. He behaved as if the company was his own, raising

suspicions about his true intentions. Walter's smile faltered for a brief second, but it was just that a second.

"Thanks for the advice, Alexander. I've been so eager to prove my worth to the Kennedys that | might've

overlooked Freya and the others. My apologies.""It's understandable, but be careful not to push yourself too

hard. Your health could suffer."

"That's a bit ironic coming from you," Walter chuckled, "You handle far more work than I do regularly. If anyone's

pushing too hard, it's you, not me."Alexander let out a laugh at this. "Then let's declare tonight a work-free zone.

There's a social gathering later. Why don't you join me?""Is it a networking event? | can manage that. But

Quinn's waiting for you downstairs. You should probably head hearly with the missus. You also need to

balance work with sdowntime," Walter insisted.At this, Alexander's smile took on a chilly edge as he

squinted slightly. "You brought her with you?" he asked.
