Chapter 1541: Prolixity

Ayan immediately called Kian and asked him to arrange for someone to check Daisy's recent situation. Since this process would take some time, they decided to have another cup of coffee while waiting. After about half an hour, Kian called.

Kian said, "Mr. Simpson, I found out that the person Daisy has been in contact with is Preston. They have been in touch for quite some time. According to the investigation, Miss Daisy has registered a new foreign trade company in Hance City."

"When did this happen?" Ayan asked casually.

"It has been a week already."

"Alright, I see." Ayan put the call on speakerphone, but he was concerned that Kerry might not understand, so he repeated it again, saying, "Does Mr. Kerry know about this?"

Kerry shook his head, looking very serious, and said, "I have no idea what Daisy is up to."

Ayan didn't directly reveal Preston's identity to Kerry, but he did mention their past conflicts and expressed his suspicion that Preston's intentions in approaching Miss Daisy were not pure. As for the establishment of this company, it was highly likely that it was aimed at him and Simpson Group.

If Ayan's speculations were correct, Daisy's actions would directly harm the cooperation between Tillery's Corporation and Simpson Group.

After hearing this, Kerry's expression grew even more grave. He said, "Mr. Simpson, I have no idea what Miss Daisy's intentions are, but rest assured, I will make sure her actions don't bring any losses to Simpson Group. When I return, I will have a good talk with Mr. Tillery about this. I will suggest that Mr. Tillery send Miss Daisy back and not let her continue causing trouble for you."

Kerry didn't know what Daisy was planning, but currently, Tillery's Corporation had a cooperative relationship with Simpson Group, which might continue in the future. However, Daisy's current actions involved cooperating with Ayan's adversaries, essentially opposing Ayan. Such behavior was not good and would cause a lot of trouble for Ayan. If Ayan were to vent his anger on Tillery, it would undoubtedly create a huge disturbance within Simpson Group, and Tillery's Corporation's reputation would also be greatly affected. Therefore, Kerry had to take responsibility for Tillery's Corporation.

However, compared to Kerry's concerns, Ayan didn't show much emotion. He just looked at Kerry calmly and asked with a hint of a smile, "Mr. Kerry, if you do that, I'm afraid Miss Daisy won't be satisfied, right?"

Of course, Kerry was well aware of this. He sighed helplessly, his voice low and hoarse, "I know, but I have no choice. I believe Tillery's Corporation's interests are more important than my personal feelings." Kerry told Ayan that Mr. Tillery had been kind to him. He had been an orphan since childhood, and if it weren't for Mr. Tillery, he wouldn't be where he is today. That's why Kerry cherished his relationship with Mr. Tillery, and even though Daisy's attitude towards him wasn't the best, he still held strong feelings for her.

Ayan nodded in understanding. After all, as an outsider and not Kerry himself, he couldn't view these matters from Kerry's perspective.

Kerry added, "I will handle this matter. Mr. Simpson, please trust me."

"Mr. Kerry, there's no need to overly involve yourself in this matter. If Daisy has really done something, I will consider it in the context of our cooperation with Tillery's Corporation. I truly consider you a friend, so I don't want you to be in a difficult position. For now, let's not intervene in this matter. I will let you know when there is a real need, alright?"

Ayan's reason for not wanting Kerry to get involved was not genuinely for Daisy's sake. He simply wanted to see what Daisy and Preston were up to.

Curious to see how Preston is using Daisy?

He's certainly aware that Preston is collaborating with Daisy to deal with him, but does Daisy herself realize this?

If Daisy is also aware and still willing to cooperate, there's only one reason: his refusal has made him angry and resentful. Apart from that, Ayan can't find a reasonable explanation or justification to defend Daisy.

So, for now, he doesn't intend to pursue or obstruct Daisy; he just wants to see what Preston can accomplish with Daisy's help.

However, Ayan will soon regret his decision today because he wanted to wait for Preston to reveal his true intentions, which leads to a significant change in his relationship with Camille.

But at the moment, Ayan has no expectations about any of this.

After discussing Daisy with Ayan, Kerry returns to the unresolved matter. Kerry's mood seems a bit down, probably because of Daisy. Faced with Ayan's relentless pressure, Kerry doesn't have much of a response, and eventually, he compromises under Ayan's repeated probing.

Tillery's Corporation offers a three percent discount, which represents three percent of this project.

It's a substantial amount, but it's within Mr. Tillery's acceptable range. However, it will make Kerry look at him with some cold eyes.

But right now, Kerry can't afford to think about that or have any extra thoughts.

After signing the contract with Ayan, Kerry leaves Simpson Group. As soon as he comes out, he heads back to the hotel. Simpson Group arranged a dedicated car for him, driven by an honest and unassuming person who doesn't understand English. The assistant has tested him multiple times, confirming that the driver doesn't speak English.

Glancing at Kerry several times through the rearview mirror, the assistant senses that Kerry's mood seems terrible. Naturally, the assistant thinks of the recent collaboration with Ayan and asks, "Mr. Kerry, did we offer a price that was too low for Simpson Group?"

Kerry finally reacts, raising his gaze to look at the assistant. It's hard to discern his emotions, but his tone is indifferent as he says, "Once it's settled, there's no need to chatter about it."

The assistant quickly nods, indicating understanding.

Kerry looks out the window, his voice growing deeper. "What has Miss Daisy been up to these past few days?"

Having not seen her at all, he's unaware of her schedule. Daisy dislikes being watched and especially dislikes others prying into her affairs. She's accustomed to freedom and doesn't want to be restrained. The assistant truthfully replies, "I'm not entirely sure. You said not to overly focus on Miss Daisy, so..."

"Find a way to establish a connection with her secretary or bodyguard. I want to know everything that happens to her from today onward," Kerry decides. Ayan was right; indulging someone too much only makes them fly farther away. Only by completely controlling her can he keep her by his side forever.

The assistant quickly nods in response. Upon returning to the hotel, his first action will be to proactively contact Daisy's bodyguard and secretary. One of them should be persuadable. Back at Simpson Group,

After Kerry's departure, Kian promptly arrives at the office. Neither Kian nor Kerry's assistant were present during the recent events, so they don't know how Ayan managed to make Kerry back down. In a low voice, Kian asks, "Mr. Simpson, did you threaten Kerry to make him comply?"
