Enrique remained unfazed, even bursting into laughter, "Jackson, actually, Shakira was the one I told you about before, the person who convinced me through Xanthe to join the Southville Project." Enrique was just moderately wealthy before, and Crescentville had plenty of wealthy people.

Thanks to the Southville Project, Enrique smoothly entered the mid-level of Crescentville's business scene and gained the favor of Sean, the boss of Yonder Digital, sparking considerable envy among his peers. Jackson and his family had heard Enrique mention this at the celebration party before, but Enrique wanted to protect Shakira and didn't want to cause her any unnecessary trouble, so he didn't directly reveal her identity. Hearing this, Jackson and his family looked at Shakira with expressions of shock. "She was the one who helped you secure the Southville Project?"

Enrique nodded. "It was her. Do you think she should take the main seat today?"

Jackson and Odalyn gave an awkward laugh, "Of course." At the celebration, Jackson felt envious, wondering why he never encountered such a valuable benefactor. He had never imagined that the fabled benefactor was just a young girl. What was even more surprising was that Enrique actually followed the advice of a young girl to compete for a project that everyone was fighting over... Now, they looked at Shakira with newfound respect, not regarding her as just a junior anymore. Xanthe was keeping the energy high. "Alright, let's dig in. We have a schedule to keep."

Helen asked, "Oh, do you have plans for later?"

"Yeah, there's a promotion at Vogue Mall today. Shakira and I are going to check it out. I'm almost out of skincare products," said Xanthe.

Lucy chimed in, "Xanthe, I'd like to go too."

Normally, Xanthe would have no problem with her tagging along, but this time she turned to ask, "Shakira, would you feel uncomfortable if Lucy came with us?"

Lucy's grip on her spoon tightened. Shakira stayed as calm as always. "Not at all."

"Okay, let's all go together then," Xanthe agreed.

Lucy's smile stiffened slightly, and her eyes turned gloomy as she focused on her meal.
