After their time apart, his chiseled features still drew her in, sparking wild daydreams within her.

Outwardly, she'd never concede to these feelings.

Putting on her most confident face, she replied, "Nothing of concern,

Mr. Wilson. Let's discuss the agreement. We, the Jenkins family, will supply the Sky Group with a batch of second and third-grade pills.

The pricing is..."

Inside the Sky Group's conference room, the negotiations were intense.

Barbara put on her most professional demeanor.

Yet, as the minutes ticked by, she couldn't help but keep peeping at Anthony with admiration.

Dressed in a blue suit, Anthony could easily pass for a top-tier international model.

He went over the contract meticulously, showcasing his professionalism and keen understanding of the finer details.

In contrast, hired by the Jenkins family, the professional joined the meeting with Barbara and seemed more flustered, making errors from sheer nervousness.

Barbara was lost in her whirlpool of emotions.

If only Maria wasn't in the picture, she might've been Mrs. Anthony.

But alas, Anthony never realized her worth. How could he overlook her?

She alternated between melancholy, bitterness, and confusion.

Meanwhile, Anthony remained unfazed, paying her no attention.

From the start of the meeting, it was clear that the Jenkins ‘spokesperson was that professional. Barbara seemed to play a more symbolic role. Perhaps the figurehead or emblem of the Jenkins family?

Out of nowhere, a stunning girl with a near-perfect complexion appeared, radiating innocence and charm.

Judy's sudden entrance caught Barbara completely off guard.

But what transpired next was even more perplexing.

This sweet-looking girl set a plate of fruit before Anthony and casually popped a piece into her mouth.

Barbara's eyebrows shot up in disbelief.

Anthony simply raised his eyes to Judy, a slight hint of amusement in them.

Expecting a reprimand from Anthony for such an interruption, Barbara waited.
