“Violet brought upon herself this whole situation!” Zuko pulled Lina up with him with a smirk. “Let’s end this meal

here. My wife and I will pretend we didn’t hear anything you said. If you insist on causing us trouble, I don’t mind

meeting you in court!”

“Mr. Hamerton, please wait!” Fred called out to him. “Is there really no room for negotiation?”

“If my husband says there isn’t, then there isn’t.” Lina chuckled lightly. “Mr. Grist, I understand your desire to

protect your niece, but we shouldn’t abandon our sense of right and wrong as a person, should we?”

“What if I offer you an internship position at the Grist Group, Ms. Jenner?”

“What did you say?” Lina halted her steps and glanced at the man beside her.

Zuko furrowed his brow slightly, his gaze filled with suspicion. He discreetly held her small hand tightly and gently

squeezed it twice as if telling her not to worry and that he had everything under control.

“An internship position at the Grist Group isn’t just open to anyone.” Fred smiled. “If you’re willing, you can have an

internship position, and I can reserve a permanent job for you after graduation.

“Ms. Jenner, what do you think?”

“A position in the Grist Group is rare.” Zuko chuckled softly. “But not to the extent that we’d compromise our

principles.

“On the contrary, Mr. Grist.” He looked at Fred with a sharp gaze. “You have exceptional abilities. How did you end

up being PR for someone like Violet?”

Fred’s expression froze, and he spoke with a dignified tone. “She’s my niece, after all. I might have a lowly

background, but my brother and I are still family.”

“Is that so?” Zuko raised an eyebrow. “Even if the Grist Group is handed over to Violet in the future, you won’t

compete or fight for it? Are you content with being beneath others?”

Fred’s expression suddenly changed.

He had to admit that Zuko had seen through him. He had countless grievances, but he was an illegitimate child at

the end of the day and had to suppress his own brilliance. No matter how capable he was, he was always

marginalized in the Grists. He could only bide his time now, help the Grists on the surface, and secretly accumulate

his own power and connections, waiting for an opportunity.

However, Zuko had seen through all of these matters!

Fred squinted, examined Zuko, and doubts overwhelmed him.

Zuko gave a cold smirk, holding Lina’s hand as they passed by Fred.

He suddenly stopped and whispered in Fred’s ear, enunciating each word, “Mr. Grist, please stop. If you come

looking for us again because of Violet, I’ll reveal even more scandalizing news about your niece. Heh! When she

falls from grace again, I wonder how the outside world will view the Grist Group.”

Fred raised his eyes and found himself met with a chilling smile that sent shivers down his spine. Politely, he had no

choice but to let Zuko and Lina leave.

He stared at their receding figures for a long time until his assistant came to remind him that the food had gone

cold and asked if they should be replaced. Only then did Fred snap out of his daze.

“That guy’s… Zeke?”

The assistant was momentarily surprised but nodded.

Fred frowned. “Who is he?”

“He doesn’t have any remarkable background. He used to work as a truck driver for the Grist Group. Because he’s

tall and doesn’t talk much, everyone made fun of him and called him a big idiot. But he doesn’t work here

anymore.”

“What?” Fred cried out in amusement. This was no big idiot, but a negotiation expert who tightly grasped the

initiative!

The assistant asked in a low voice, “Sir, is there anything else you need?”

“Have the HR department retrieve Zeke’s previous records and notify the security department that I want all

surveillance footage related to him!”

The assistant was somewhat surprised and did not understand why they needed to make such a big fuss.

“Oh, one more thing…” Fred remembered. “Every truck at the Grist Group is equipped with a tracking device.

Check which truck Zeke used to drive and thoroughly investigate every place he’s been to!”
