A chill swept through Harvey as the situation dawned on him.

Could it really be that they'd just handed over such a valuable chance so easily?

He wondered if this was reality or he was caught in a criel illusion.

"M-Mr. Ramsey, hang on a second. That's not what I meant," Harvey stammered, moving swiftly to place himself in front of Robin.

"Then let's do as you suggested-let Vera be the one to sign the contract."

Since Vera had been kept out of Silva Group's core decision-making for a while now, even if she signed the project contracts, they would eventually come to Harvey and Quincy.

Harvey quickly silenced her, turning to Vera with urgency. "Vera, for the Silva family's sake... just sign it."

Robin gripped her wrist tightly. "Harvey, if you can't keep your woman in line, I'd be more than happy to do it for you," he said coldly. Harvey hadn't expected things to escalate this way. He stepped forward and slapped Quincy, "My apologies, Mr. Ramsey.

"What? How dare you hit mel" Quincy shouted, then flung herself at Harvey, shrieking like a wildcat.
