“So, what exactly do you want from me?” Hailey asked.

Mattie smiled faintly. “Miss Dalton, I’m willing to give you my five percent stake in the company, but only if you force Aiden out of the Dalton family.”

Mattie was taken aback by Hailey’s swift agreement. She paused, then, seeing Hailey was serious, pulled out the prepared equity transfer agreement.

At first, Mattie hadn’t fully trusted Hailey, but after testing her the previous day, she realized Hailey had no emotional attachment to the Dalton family. That was when Mattie felt comfortable going through with the deal, knowing they both had the same goal.

The conversation went smoothly, and once the contract was signed, Mattie left early.

Hailey finished her coffee and left the private room.

As she stepped out, she collided with Owen, who was coming up the stairs.

It had been a few days since they last saw each other, and Owen seemed thinner.

He was accompanied by his assistant and two middle–aged men, likely here for business.

He wore a black suit, and his appearance was lean and tall, his features more chiseled than before, giving him a colder, more distant look. Even when he saw Hailey, his expression didn’t change.

Hailey found this reassuring, reminding herself it was for the best.
