The exquisite tea snacks were one by one brought to the table, beautifully arranged, and full of color and fragrance.
Atra Blanc and Alexander Summers talked about the company. After all, Atra was his mother, and seeing her son starting a business and acquiring a company for her sister, she was worried about Alexanderâs financial situation and once again offered her savings accumulated over the years to help out.
Purple Summers ate quietly, not participating in the conversation.
However, she couldnât help but admire Atraâs courage, as she dared to mention her savings in front of Alexander, a big financial backer, and it was not the first time she had done so.
â¦Luckily, Alexander was not really a wasteful playboy; otherwise, regardless of how much Atra saved, it would have been squandered by him!
Atra asked with concern, âWhat does the information consultation company actually do?â
âItâs a emerging industry that helps clients collect information, verify the authenticity of information, and conduct data surveys. The company has its own investigators, and although the scale is not large at present, the profitability is good,â Alexander replied.
Purple knew this type of company, which had a similar nature to private detective offices but felt more sophisticated due to the collection and research of Big Data.
Although she had a lot of complaints about Alexander, she couldnât deny that this generous gift came at a very timely moment.
Just as she was considering hiring a private detective, Alexander brought her an investigator, which was like encountering a pillow when feeling sleepy. She couldnât be more grateful.
Atra asked again, âIs the company usually very busy? Do employees often work overtime? Is business travel required?â
Alexanderâs expression showed a hint of helplessness, âMom, Purple is the CEO; sheâll have a secretary and department managers under her. She just needs to make the final decisions.â
Atra let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, âAfter the busy period of the beginning of the school year, Iâll go to the company with Purple to take a look.â
Alexander smiled, petted Purpleâs head beside him, and said indulgently, âOnce the busy period is over, you can take the driverâs license test, and then Iâll give you a car.â
He was like a loving elder brother to his sister.
Purple was annoyed at Alexander but didnât want to upset Atra, so she squeezed out a smile reluctantly.
The family seemed to be happy and harmonious.
At this moment, more guests walked up from the downstairs.
The woman said dissatisfiedly to the waiter, âIsnât there an empty private room here? Why do you insist on having us sit in the lobby downstairs?â
The voice was too familiar, attracting the attention of the family of three.
It was Nathaniel Summers and Jade Carlson.
They had also come here for dim sum. Like Atra, they were likely drawn here by the reputation.
The man was dressed in a suit, and the woman was wearing a tight-fitting slit dress, both dressed for a date.
Nathaniel was surprised and somewhat embarrassed to see Purple, as he had just been scolded by Purple yesterday.
Atra had no idea about the twists and turns and saw that Nathaniel and Jade had nowhere to sit, so she politely stood up and invited, âNathaniel, if you donât mind, sit with us.â
Jade was a bit unhappy as she felt that sitting with people like Atra was beneath her.
However, the waiter said that the empty private rooms had been reserved, and she didnât want to sit in the noisy lobby either.
Nathaniel expressed his gratitude, and Jade joined him in the private room and sat down.
âThe weather is nice today, you guys also came out early for breakfast.â Atra chatted cordially with them.
âWe heard that there is a new chef here, and we just happened to pass by, so we came in to have a seat,â Jade answered on behalf of Nathaniel, with a faint hint of superiority in her tone, âAfter the meal, we still have to go to the Jameson Family to discuss matters; we rarely have any leisure time.â
Atra just wanted to exchange pleasantries and not curry favor, so she responded with a slight smile, âOh, I see,â then ended the conversation.
Alexanderâs expression was indifferent, but deep down, his internal defenses were all raisedâ¦.
