“I need to go down to deal with something.” Benny gave a mysterious smile.
Willow gave him a gathering look, “Mr. Fest, I wouldn’t if I were you.”
The bespectacled man, who was watching this go down on the side, raised a brow as if daring her to
question Benny’s choices.
His boss was no one but the head of Paramount’s Chamber of Commerce! The richest man in all of
Paramount! Even the head of state would take care to address Benny politely. Nobody would dare to
talk to Benny in this manner!
Benny gave his assistant a warning glance. His warm expression did not change. “Enlighten me
please, President Willow.”
No matter how he felt about it, there was no denying that the Draco Chamber of Commerce was one of
the more powerful associations on this outskirts. He needed to show the woman some respect even

Willow took in Benny’s questioning gaze and answered, “Mr. Fest, if it were up to me, I would love to
continue to work with you. But that will change if you decide to go down now. There will be no further
collaborating between our two chambers.”
“Oh?”
Benny’s features tightened.
This collaborative project between the chambers will cost nearly a hundred billion. He just wanted to go
downstairs to see his daughter… Hold on a minute. His daughter?
Benny suddenly remembered how spoilt his daughter had been ever since she was a child. His heart
sank. Had she somehow offended some higherup from the Draco Chamber?
As expected, this wasn’t his first rodeo. He guessed it right with just one sentence.
The only thing he didn’t know was who his daughter had offended. He had no connections with anyone
in the Draco Chamber of Commerce and therefore had no strings to pull!
After pondering, he tentatively said, “President Willow, I’d like to apologize to you on my daughter’s
behalf if she has offended anyone.”
Willow gave him a breezy smile, “Of course. She is young. It’s only natural for youngsters to have a bit
of a temper. The reason I’m waiting here is because I see much potential in our collaboration and hope
to have many more in the future. There’s no need to add oil to fire.”
Benny smiled and nodded in agreement, “President Willow has much foresight!”
“Okay then. I’ll see you at the auction soon.” Willow nodded.
“Thank you, President Willow.” It was important for him, as the organizer of this charity auction this
evening and as the president of the Paramount Chamber of Commerce, to show appreciation.
“Don’t worry about it.” Willow waved it away. “I should be the one thanking you, Mr. Fest, for allowing us
to use The Pavilion to host this auction!”

Benny watched as Willow disappeared round the corner before turning to his assistant, “Go find out
what did Yuna do!”
The man quickly nodded. His eye flashed with annoyance as he answered, “Yes, sir. I’ll go right now!”
He had made a mistake. He had seen Yuna and her husband arguing with a man downstairs and had
rushed up here to report on it. But he was unexpectedly detained by President Willow as soon as he
left the room.
According to what President Willow said earlier, it seemed like Miss Fest had insulted someone of
position within the Draco Chamber.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said that their collaboration would be terminated so easily.
Thankfully, his boss did not go down. If he had, their project would have fallen through, and the
messenger would be…
