Chapter 516

Whitney's cheeks flushed a deep shade of red as she pursed her lips and instinctively shook her head.

Danny's young face turned stormy, his eyes flashing with a dark intensity reminiscent of Ludwik's brooding glare.

However, the man in question merely chuckled, lightening the mood. "Come on, I was talking about the new property I bought. Have you decided to move Skye Gem Ltd. over yet?"

Whitney let out the breath she'd been holding.

Before she could respond, Bryce frowned, "I figured Ludwik might cave and give you the golf course land. He plays you first, then acts like he's doing you a favor. Do you really want his charity? I hope this time you'll stand with me. After all, I'd never harm you, Whitney." Bryce capitalized on her indignation.

Indeed, Whitney had her considerations. The Sheldon Group, under Hugh's control, was something she wanted to reclaim for her father, a challenging feat at the moment!

Her only strategy was to leverage Skye Gem Ltd. to quickly establish a foothold in Emperor City. Having her own strength meant Holly would have a harder time targeting her!

And right now, she wanted nothing to do with Ludwik.

Whitney made her decision, "Okay, Bryce, I'll visit the unfinished building with you as soon as possible."

Bryce's dark eyes sparkled with joy as he grasped her wrist, "Having you move the company to be closer to me is wonderful. The Lutz Group will always support Skye Gem Ltd., just like I'll always be there for you."

Danny's hope shattered. Was Mommy indirectly choosing Bryce?

He didn't want Mommy and Bryce to be together day and night!

Danny quickly sent a message to his absentee dad: [Ludwik, Mommy's planning to co-found a company with Bryce. Looks like you're out of the picture. You only have yourself to blame.]
