Chapter 1047 Lucas responded in a calm, low voice, "You won't get that chance in this lifetime." Selena huffed. "You better hope so!" She lifted her chin defiantly and then playfully winked at Aveline.

Aveline smiled softly, a hint of exasperation in her eyes. When would these two ever stop bickering? Once they arrived at the mall, Selena dragged Aveline into a whirlwind shopping spree. Whatever caught their eye, they bought-no hesitation, no restraint. It felt exhilarating to indulge so freely! Lucas followed quietly behind them, occasionally making a few phone calls and handling work without missing a beat.

After shopping all morning, the group started to feel tired. Selena led Aveline into a restaurant across the street.

"I read reviews on this place, and they say the food is amazing. They've got sdishes from Cloudflare City too. It's been a while since you've been back-want a taste of home?" Selena asked, grinning while flipping through the menu. Aveline nodded. "Yeah, I've been craving it. Lettake a look at the menu." "Sure, you order," Selena said, handing her the menu before excusing herself to the restroom.

Since the restroom on the second floor was under maintenance, Selena headed downstairs to the one on the ground floor. As she cout, she noticed a familiar figure sitting at a nearby table. A man with a brutish demeanor stood before her, pointing his finger aggressively at her face.

Curious, Selena stepped closer, overhearing their conversation.

"Jolie, who do you think you're fooling? Everyone knows your family needs this project. My family holds the deciding vote, and it's up towhose bid gets accepted. I picked you because I'm doing you a favor. Don't act like you don't need it. Pissoff, and your family will get nothing!" The man's voice was loud and arrogant, his tone dripping with condescension.

Selena's brow furrowed in irritation.

So the Quin family wanted this project, and they sent Jolie to handle it? "So much for being the favored daughter," she thought bitterly.

Clearly, her parents weren't as doting as they seemed if they were willing to put Jolie in such a humiliating situation.

Jolie's expression remained calm, her eyes holding a hint of mockery as she looked at the man. "Oh? I wasn't aware that the Lowe family had the final say over this project. Should I inform the other companies about this?" The man's face darkened at her words, but he quickly retorted, "The Lowe family put in the most money, so, of course, we have the most control Your Quin family barely invested anything and you stift expect to have a say? Isn't that a bit delusional?" He adjusted his suit and sat back down, his posture dripping with arrogance. I'm only talking to you about this because I like you, Jolie I'm even willing to cut you in on sprofits. But don't push your luck If you keep refusing, you'll only have yourself to blwhen you lose out." Jolie's fingers tightened around her water glass, her upbringing and self-control keeping her from tossing it at his smug face. She lowered her gaze, deciding she

wouldn't bother engaging with him anymore. Whether or not this project was vital to the Quin family didn't matter to her at this point. She stood up to leave, but before she could walk away, a deep, magnetic voice sounded from nearby.

"Talking about the Southside business district project?"

Instinctively, Jolie turned to see where the voice had cfrom and was startled to recognize one of the e mem sitting a few tables away-Gavin, the sman she had been entangled with the previous night.

Why was he here? The man who had been bullying Jolie also looked toward Gavin. The instant he saw who it was, all the arrogance drained from his face.

"Mr. Cooper?"

Gavin's cold gaze flickered over the Ο Μ' man before he calmly addressed the person sitting across from him, ignoring Noe ignoring Jolie completely. "Bringthe Lowe family's bid again. I'd like to take another look."
