If Rosalynn wasn't Christopher's student, she would have been deceived.

From a distance, Brian glanced at Rosalynn with a hint of curiosity in his eyes, but it quickly vanished.

Fearing that Rosalynn would steal the show, Eleanor hurriedly changed the topic.

"Ma'am, Mathews recently performed in a historical costume play. He said that he would be shooting in the desert. He is really committed."

“Indeed,” Dayana responded, instructing her servant to put the painting away with a nod.

Wanting to one-up Eleanor, Arya chimed in, "I'm also a fan of Mathews! He's not only handsome and talented but also more captivating than today's popular idols."

Dayana smiled and remained silent.

"| think he can't be more charming than your husband!" Arya said and smiled.

Dayana's smile widened when she heard this.

It was evident that she agreed with Arya's words.

Rosalynn observed the exchange between the two women from the sidelines, quietly assessing the situation.

At some point, the men began to discuss the cooperation.

Brian and Baxter presented their cooperation cases to Merrick, each doing their utmost to highlight their benefits.

On the other hand, Chaz remained calm and composed, sporting a charming smile that was difficult to read.

In the business world, emotional intelligence was just as crucial as competence.

Many deals were sealed over meals and drinks.

After being acquainted with each other's respective cooperation cases, Chaz decided it was time for their meal.

"Shall we discuss over lunch?" Merrick suggested after Chaz winked at him.

"Sure." Baxter smiled.

"Chaz, I've heard you're a connoisseur, so I've invited Leandro's student. Kabir learned his cooking skills from Leandro. | hope he cooks us a delicious lunch tailored to your taste."

Leandro's student?

Brian raised an eyebrow, surprised by Baxter's cunning move.
