Chapter 1044
"I'm so pissed." Shannon sounded chagrined. "I was so close but wasn't able to catch up."
She asked after a pause, "How was the lunch | made?"
"Not bad." | gave a fair assessment.
| suddenly recalled the incident last night. Dazaray seemed to know those old bosses, so | asked in a serious
tone, "Do you know what Dazaray does?"
Shannon was astonished. "Why are you suddenly asking about what she does?"
| pursed my lips. "The case Jordan gaveis a little complicated. Dazaray seems to know slocal bosses.
That's why I'm asking."
Shannon clicked her tongue. "Oh, please don't. She used to sell jade bracelets because she has channels for it.

because she often sells counterfeit goods to people who can't tell the difference, so her reputation i s slowly
being affected. | suggest not asking someone unreliable like her. Who knows? She might even set you up again."
| helplessly smiled. "She probably won't setup. I'll just ask basic information about the old bosses and
their companies. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy will you be able to fight a winning battle."
Last night, Dazaray was able to tell at one glance that the man standing beside Theo was called Mr. Isaac. She
probably knew a lot of old bosses like him.
Besides, judging from the look on Mr. Isaac's face last night, he was probably there for the project. To be able to
invite Theo to the club and gain a firm footing beside Theo out of the many bosses out
there showed that his ability was not to be underestimated. Hence, | needed to get to know Mr. Isaac and his
enterprise.
Shannon let out a long sigh. "Missy, you might as well ask Thaddea and me. My grandma has been living in
Hommiton City her whole life and has a pretty solid foundation here. She knows these local enterprises like the
back of her hand. Thaddea’s boyfriend is a property agent. Do you think he’s worse off than Dazaray when it
comes to interacting with the rich?"
| was a little surprised and did not expect them to offer so much help. Sure enough, having friends opened up
more opportunities.
| thought about it and asked, "Are you still downstairs?"
"Yeah.” Shannon sounded dissatisfied. "Cdown and have a cup of coffee with me. I'll help you ask
everything you want to know. Don't underestimatenext time. Although I'm a socially idle person, that doesn't
mean that I'm socially useless."
| could not help but laugh. "Sure, Missy. I'll go downstairs right away."
| grabbed my bag and went downstairs after hanging u p the phone.
Shannon was sitting on the lobby's sofa. She was using her phone, and there was a pile of shopping bags beside
her. It seemed like she had gone to the mall to make a big sweep.

When she saw me, she put her phone in her purse and got up to say towith a grin, "Let’s go and have some
afternoon tea together."
| noticed that most of the things she bought were luxury items. | asked curiously, "Does your family own a
mine?"
She did not need to attend work or school and just spent money all day?
Shannon smiled slightly. "We indeed have a mine, but i t belongs to my grandma. Ever since she learned that my
parents sentto that school and nearly gotkilled out there, she has forbidden them to control me. She
took it upon herself to watch after me. That's why I'm living the life now."
Speople were born to work hard their whole lives to make a living; swere born to just sit and wait until
the day they died.
| did not ask any more questions. | helped her carry her shopping bags. | got ready to go and have afternoon tea «
with her.
