Be, "..."

It looks like she needs to teach Stefan a lesson. How dare he give her son a cheat game? Gosh!

Be tries not tough when she hears Dax’s words. She nces at Tristan only to see his worried expression as he looks at their son.

She tries to give Tristan a sign to exin to their son the meaning of leveling up using a cheat or without his effort. However, her husband doesn’t grasp her sign.

"Oh, Uncle Gael can create a game? Oh, wow!" Tristan asks while looking at Be. He seems to need more exnation.

Be is speechless.

’Gosh! Why is he more interested in Stefan’s ability?’

"So Quantum also has a game division?" Tristan continues to ask when he sees her and seems reluctant to answer.

There’s no point in hiding this from Tristan. He already knows, and Stefan has also already exposed himself to Dax. Tsk! She now starts to regret inviting Stefan to lunch at her house.

Smiling innocently, Be responds to Tristan, "Hmm, Gael is the man behind our gamepany; maybe you’ve heard about Soft Tech?"

Tristan smiles slightly upon hearing that. In the past, he had heard rumors about Soft Tech, which the RDF group owned, but he didn’t believe them because Soft Tech was not listed on thepany’s website.

He still remembers a few years ago when he came across Soft Tech. He was interested in coborating with them and offered to be their exclusive agent in his country. However, Soft Tech refused with an unreasonable excuse—they did not want to expand theirpany in his country and did not need a new partner.

"Yes, I hear they are the best in this industry. So, was thatpany really rted to the RDF Group? Yourpany?" Tristan asks, wanting to hear it directly from her.

When Soft Tech refused to work with hispany, he wasn’t suspicious. Now he understands why they refused him with such an excuse. Jack and Gael must have known about him and wanted to teach him a lesson. Remembering those times, he can onlyugh bitterly inwardly.

Be leans closer to Tristan and whispers, not wanting her mother and aunt to hear their conversation, "Yes, they are, but Jack lists thepany under our anonymouspany. You know... we just want to keep a low profile and not attract many eyes to the RDF Group."

"How many anonymouspanies does the RDF Group own?" Tristan also lowers his voice, so only Be can hear. He knows Dax might listen to them, even though he is now immersed in his game again.

"Sorry, Mr. Sinir, I can’t tell you that. It’s apany secret." Be almostughs when she sees his wrinkled eyebrows.

"Alright, I will give you one piece of info. Thepany that now buys Donovan Group was my anonymouspany. So, you can ask Max to investigate thepany and learn about the wealth of one of the RDF founders..." She continues while pointing to her face with a yful smile.

Tristan is increasingly curious about his wife’s actual wealth. How manypanies does she own and manage? How about her personal assets? He believes she has many assets outside of their country. And for the first time, only thinking of that makes him worry that his wife is too independent and far from the usual traditional woman.

Trying to humor himself, he asks her, "Ms. Sinir, do you think I can retire from Sinir Group and be a house husband to care for our son and you?"

"What do you mean?" Be is confused hearing his question. She narrows her eyes at him.

"I mean, I’m worried that your assets and wealth are greater than mine and that you might find me useless and leave me," he says in a miserable butical tone, causing Be to burst intoughter.

"Hahaha..." Be’sughter catches the attention of Dax and the others; they look at her with curiosity and concern.

’Darn it!’ Be silently scolds herself for attracting their attention. After giving them an innocent smile, Be turns back to Tristan.

"I don’t even know how wealthy I am. My assets and my money work for me. When I decided to marry you in the past, Jack and Ste... I mean Gael, took care of it. They are basically my investment managers. All I know is that the money in my Swiss bank ount is enough to let me livefortably."

Seeing Tristan flinch, Be continues teasingly, "But, Mr. Sinir, you don’t need to worry. My assets alone won’t beat yourpany. So, don’t think about retiring! You need to work hard and earn money for us..."

Tristan, "..."

***

When Be and Tristan are still conversing and giggling, Emma suddenly interrupts them to ask Be to discuss something in private.

Be bes nervous when she sees her aunt’s expression, which doesn’t look as calm as before. She can clearly see the worry in her aunt’s face.

After Be excuses herself to Tristan and Dax, she looks at her mother and says, "Mom, I’m going to talk to Aunty. I want you to get as much rest as possible, okay?"

Natalie nods. She understands Be and Emma need to talk privately. Not long after that, Natalie excuses herself to rest before Dr. Angiees to pick her up and move her to the hospital.

Later,

Be and Emma settle in the guest room, the one Emma would use in the vi, and sit across from each other.

However, after sitting for a few minutes, Emma doesn’t say a single word. The sentences she wants to say, already on the tip of her tongue, seem to make a U-turn back into her heart.

Be can see her aunt’s reluctance to speak. Emma opens her mouth a few times, but no wordse out. Be knows that something is troubling her aunt.

After waiting a few more seconds, Be can’t wait any longer.

"Aunty, is there anything you’re worried about? Please share it with me. Maybe I can help."
