Steven solemnly nodded and pulled out a stack of documents from his briefcase, handing them out to the board members one by one.

"A confidentiality agreement?!" The group was surprised, feeling somewhat embarrassed. They could not help but question, “Ms. Thompson, what do you mean by this? We've all been your father's partners for many years, and we have accompanied him through thick and thin. Do you really distrust us like this? Are you looking down on us?"

Bella's gaze remained steady and composed. She calmly replied, "Gentlemen, you're overreacting. My intention is solely to protect my father, the KS Group, and the board of directors to the fullest extent. It has nothing to do with respect or disrespect. The confidentiality agreement is merely a safeguard. It restrains those with ulterior motives. You're not just my father's business partners. You all are his friends as well.

Otherwise, we wouldn't need to sign any contracts when discussing business, would we?"

Bella's opinion was taken into consideration. There was no reason for anyone not to sign. Otherwise, wouldn't they fit her definition of "those with ulterior motives"?

"I know. Don't worry. We'll deal with that later," Bella replied, her eyes darkening.
