Sieg commented casually, “The Zink family’s influence is on the rise. It makes sense to forge a relationship with them.”

This laid–back approach was why Sieg, known for his carefree lifestyle as a wealthy heir, maintained a wide network of friends.

The Frowlers ran a business in the industry sector, which attracted many people who wished to interact with them. Inadvertently, it broadened Sieg’s circle to include various contacts from business and non–business alike.

Alex acknowledged this with a hum.

Their circle’s networking was complicated, and a connection with the Zink family, known for their restaurant business, was indeed advantageous.

Sensing Alex’s interest, Sieg teased, “It’s surprising to see you so invested, even planning for

Sonia’s birthday.”

Sonia had subtly mentioned her upcoming birthday in their group chat, showing a mix of

excitement and reservation.

Alex didn’t contradict him, but the look in his eyes was cold. He changed the topic and said. “My company has been negotiating with Solaris recently. Their person in charge has taken an unorthodox approach.”

“You mean Quinton Holding?” Sieg queried, eyebrow raised. “I’ve heard about some internal issues with the Quintons, possibly a power struggle.”

“Errol Quinton, their current frontman, is as useless as me,” Sieg said with self–mockery.

Alex shot a glance at him, slightly mocking. “At least you’re self–aware.”

Unperturbed, Sieg went on, “So, you’re looking to take advantage of Errol… interesting.”

He stopped abruptly, noticing Jackson approaching. His demeanor naturally shifted to a more

friendly tone. “Hey, Jackson. It’s been a while.”

Jackson had a good rapport with Sieg. He nodded politely and said, “Indeed, what a coincidence

to see you here.”

Yet, when his gaze shifted to Alex, it was discernibly colder.
