Jolie had figured out the situation. The Southside business district project was primarily led by Cooper Enterprises, with various companies competing for the most lucrative contracts and land rights. It seemed the Lowe family's bid had been favored so far. The arrogant man sitting across from her immediately adopted a more respectful demeanor upon recognizing Gavin. "Mr. Cooper, our bid is solid. There are no issues."

Gavin, still ignoring him, continued with his meal.

Jolie smirked slightly before standing up and walking directly to Gavin's table.

Quentin, surprised by her boldness, spoke up, "Miss, who might you be?"

He had seen plenty of people try to get close to Gavin, but none had been this direct. Sitting down without hesitation as if they were old friends-who was this woman?

Jolie smiled at Quentin. "Hi, I'm Jolie Quin."
