Lina was supposed to meet Desiree at a high-end bar in Centrolis. To her surprise, all the attendees there were women. They exuded extraordinary temperament, dressed professionally, and behaved elegantly. They truly embodied the image of successful female entrepreneurs.

As soon as Lina entered the private room, Desiree warmly waved at her. Although distracted, Lina discreetly hid the small pistol she carried in her bag.

When she received Desiree’s message, she hesitated for a moment but decided to come anyway.

Firstly, she wanted to meet these bosses, learn more about their companies, and gain knowledge about entrepreneurs. Secondly, she harbored a glimmer of hope that Desiree would not deceive her.

Despite that, she brought the small pistol that Krystal had given her when she was kidnapped. After all, a bar was a place where anything could happen, and she wanted to be prepared just in case Desiree had any ill intentions.

Lina took a deep breath and sat down. She secretly sent a message to Zuko to let him know she was safe. She had told Zuko about this meeting because she did not want to keep anything from him and didn’t want to take any risks alone.

At first, Zuko strongly opposed her going to the bar to discuss business matters. Later, he relented, allowing her to talk about business but insisting on arranging for his men to guard the area.

Lina widened her eyes, looking cute and alert like a deer. “But I’ve already arranged my people!”
