Chapter 51 Pleasant Cooperation
Inside the private room on the tenth floor, Eric’s expression darkened, and his aura intensified.
The storm in his eyes seemed to be on the verge of erupting at any moment, as his gaze was fixed on his phone.
The others in the room dared not even breathe.
The pressure emanating from Eric was overwhelming! They all began to pray fervently, hoping he wouldn’t unleash his anger on them. They couldn’t bear his wrath!
Buzz.
The phone vibrated again.
Eric’s deep gaze landed on the phone screen. After he read the messages, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The phone vibrated several times in quick succession, displaying message after message. After Eric had read them all, his cold aura slowly dissipated, like snow melting away.
A mysterious expression flickered in his eyes, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, only to be quickly suppressed.
He withdrew his gaze from the phone and looked at the project proposal beside him. Without hesitation, he picked up a pen, signed his name on the document, and pushed it forward. His icy gaze swept over everyone present, exuding a hint of disdain as he calmly spoke, “I hope we have. pleasant cooperation.”
The people in the private room instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension that had gripped their hearts had finally been released, with a hint of curiosity lingering.
What message did Eric see that caused such a swift change in his emotions? Just moments ago, he seemed cold and ready to strike, but after reading the message, the coldness vanished instantly.
But they dared not pry into Eric’s personal matters, so they could only bury this curiosity deep within.
However, their intuition hinted that Eric’s shift in mood… was likely linked to his wife, Kate!

Eric stood up nonchalantly, leaving a parting remark before turning and exiting.
Only after Eric’s figure disappeared from view did the room’s temperature gradually rise, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“He used to be a professional boxer, so it’s not impossible for him to do that. His temperament has grown increasingly peculiar in recent years, and many whisper about his eccentricity behind his back, but he pays it no mind.”
“Let’s drop the subject. Securing cooperation with Davison Group is no easy feat. Let’s concentrate on our tasks.”
The group engaged in conversation for a while before dispersing.
Meanwhile, Kate stood idly outside the elevator on the tenth floor, gazing out through the window.
The night in Capital City was alive with lights and colours. The bustling street was visible from Emperor Hotel, including Capital City’s tallest structure, Starlight Tower.
Kate gazed towards Starlight Tower, her eyes holding a tinge of resentment.
In her previous life, she had been confined on the top floor of the Starlight Tower by Ruth and Simon and subsequently pushed from there to her demise.
Kate stared into the distance, oblivious to the tall man approaching her from behind. His intense gaze was fixed on her until he reached her side, yet she remained unaware of his presence.
“What are you looking at? You seem so focused.”
The man’s husky and alluring voice suddenly resonated.
Kate was startled, but she quickly smiled and turned to embrace him, encircling his slender waist. Her voice was gentle and beguiling as she replied, “I’m admiring the empire that you’ve conquered for me.”
A shadow flickered in Eric’s eyes.
He gazed at the petite woman nestled in his arms, a faint smile gracing his lips.
