Chapter 258

Asher said, "Daphne isn't that kind of person. She has a good personality. If you don't stir up trouble, she won't bother you." "But..." Dana tried to explain, but Daphne had already opened the car door and gotten in.

Seated in the passenger seat, Daphne glanced at Dana's aggrieved expression and then at Asher. "Did you scold her?"

Asher replied, "I said a couple of things. Work's been exhausting lately, and now I have to pick her up too. It's frustrating."

With a gentle smile, Daphne said, "Dana, if you have any issues, just talk to me or your brother, alright? Stop running over to their place. You know Elara doesn't like Asher. You're just troubling him."

At this moment, Daphne's voice was soft, completely unlike her usual cold demeanor.

Dana looked at her, remembering all the things she had just said behind her back.

In this situation, she knew Asher wouldn't believe her. She sank into her seat quietly.

"Alright, let's head home," Daphne said to Asher.

Asher glanced at her. "What did Elara say to you just now?"

Recalling how Elara had pulled her aside, Daphne gave a bitter smile.

-Daphne said, "She told me not to bully Dana. But you know I'd never do that. Dana hasn't even met Mrs. Smith's brother, yet

she's claiming I'm bullying her. If Dana doesn't want to go on a blind date, it's fine."

She continued, "It's just a meeting. Things are difficult for our family right now, but she doesn't want to help at all.

"Trailblaze Group is already working with Mr. Walker's team. I pulled every string I could just to get connected with Mrs. Smith. And now..."

She sighed. "Forget it. If we lose the deal, so be it. In the end, you're the one who'll bear the burden anyway."

Asher said firmly, "I'll handle the company's problems myself. Just don't make things worse for me."

"Got it," Daphne replied, then added with a hint of exasperation," Still, Elara is something else. She doesn't like you, so why is she so involved in our family's affairs? She probably can't wait for us to go bankrupt." She added, "She's in cahoots with Mr. Hassiron! Always trying to ruin things for us. And now she's telling up with anyone."

Asher said flatly, "Her hatred for me isn't new. Let it go."
