Be remained silent, feeling the sharp gaze of both of them now fixed on her.

’Gosh, Dax! Can you not expose me again!?’ Be sighed deeply while maintaining her smile before she started eating her breakfast.

Isaac Donovan smiled at Be, trying to ignore them. He couldn’t me her for being too protective of Dax. She had never taken Dax out of the small vige where they had lived for five years, fearing that Sinir would find out about him.

Isaac cleared his throat to break the awkward silence and told Dax, "When it gets warmer, I can teach you how to swim in the backyard pool."

Dax, looking at Isaac with a calm expression. "It’s fine, Gramps. I don’t really like physical outdoor sports. I prefer indoor activities, like ying chess or disassembling and assembling any electrical andputer instruments…"

Be, "..."

She remained silent, merely continuing to eat her breakfast while listening to their conversation.

When she finished and wanted to excuse herself to go to the office, Lewis asked for a moment to chat alone.

"Don’t worry, dear... I only need five minutes. You won’t bete to go to your office," Lewis assured her when he saw her checking her watch.

Be smiled and nodded. She could see worry sh through Lewis’s gaze, causing her own concern to rise.

She led him to her grandpa’s home office. "Grandpa Lewis, is there anything you want to tell me?"

Lewis didn’t immediately speak; he only stared at Be across from him with a concerned gaze.

After a few seconds, Lewis finally asked, "Are you really going to work now? May I know where your work is, if you don’t mind?"

Lewis felt sorry to learn that Be had to work again. If she needed money, he would give it to her; she didn’t have to work and leave her son alone at home.

Be was relieved to hear Lewis’s question. She had thought he would ask about her datest night with Tristan, a topic she didn’t want to discuss at the moment.

"Grandpa, I work for a smallpany. You might not have heard of it. Thepany’s name is Quantum Capital. We’re rtively new here, focusing on investments in small businesses and various ventures within the country," Be exined.

Lewis was surprised. He had nevere across the name Quantum Capital before. Given her outstanding educational background, he assumed Be would be working for arger multinational corporation.

With a bachelor’s degree in economics from the country’s top university and a schrship to Stanford University for her Master of Business Administration, he expected her to be involved with a more prominent firm. But he was wrong.

’Why did she choose to work for a smallpany? Why not assist Donovan Group instead?’ Lewis pondered.

"Yes, you are right, my dear. I have never heard of thatpany in all my time in this industry. They must be rtively new in this country..."

Be smiled inwardly; she purposely did not mention the name of her holdingpany, RDF Group.

RDF Group was the holdingpany she, Jack, and Harper founded. On the other hand, Quantum Capital was one of the new venture subsidiaries established by Jack in this country a year before her divorce from Tristan. She preferred not to disclose her involvement with RDF Group as one of the shareholders since she wasn’t actively involved in thepany’s management.

"Yes, thepany is still rtively new. They established their presence in this country about six to seven years ago," she replied calmly.

"Oh, my dear, Be... I feel sorry that you have to work for someone else. Have you considered starting your own business? I can provide you with capital if you need it. You don’t have to work for others," Lewis suggested.

Be sighed silently.

She actually didn’t need to work to earn ie because she had enough money to enjoy her entire life with Dax without working, just enjoying the dividend she got from RDF Group.

But that shameless Jack Foster tricked her. She had no choice but to return to this country and take over thepany because she had already promised him.

And now, Lewis’s offer left her speechless.

She was torn between revealing the truth about RDF Group, one of the top ten global investmentpanies, or keeping it low profile.

After taking a moment to consider her options, she decided it was best to keep a low profile.

If she were to reveal the truth about herpany, it could attract unwanted attention from her greedy uncle and father. They might ask to invest in the Donovan Group. Still, she would never approve of it, especially while thepany remains under the control of her first uncle, Jacob Donovan.

"Grandpa, thank you so much for your offer. I truly appreciate it," Be said sincerely. "But I can’t ept. I’ve alreadymitted to helping thispany grow in this country by signing a contract with them." This is the best reason she could give him to stop asking her to quit working.

There was a hint of disappointment in Lewis Sinir’s eyes when he heard Be’s refusal. But, a momentter, he smiled as he realized he couldn’t force her to ept his offer.

"I understand. But don’t hesitate to contact me if you encounter any issues at yourpany, Be..." Lewis Sinir said earnestly. "Even though I’ve retired from Sinir Corp, I still hold a majority share in thepany so that I can offer assistance."

Be smiled, touched by his sincere offer. "I’ll remember that, Grandpa Lewis."

"Very well," Lewis Sinir stood from his seat. "I won’t keep you any longer. You can go now; I hope you haven’t missed your appointment..."

Be nodded slightly and left the room, searching for Dax to bid him farewell. She found him in the front yard with Noora, who seemed to be waiting for her.

"Baby..." Be hugged him. After nting many kisses on his cheek, she said, "Mommy will be back before you know it. Be a good boy for your Gramps and Grandpa Lewis, alright?"

"Hmm, I sure will, mommy..." A sweet smile graced his adorable face, melting Be’s heart and causing her to regret epting Jack’s offer to take over Quantum Capital — she just wanted to cuddle and y with her baby.
