There were layers to this that even she hadn’t considered, yet her daughter had managed to cover every angle.

And she was still so young–her future was limitless.

Looking over the documents, Grace’s face softened into a rare smile.

“No surprise–you are my daughter. The next wave always surpasses the last.”

Nothing pleased her more than Aurora’s progress.

As long as her daughter remained exceptional, the Walton Corporation’s position in Ravenshore would be unshakable.

Even after her own death, her daughter could keep the company thriving, and Grace’s lega

would live

For a businessperson, nothing was more gratifying than that.

The greatest fear was dying and leaving wealth and assets in disarray.

Her gaze grew gentle as she looked at the file Aurora had brought, the corners of her lips curving in satisfaction.

“My dear daughter, don’t you dare disappoint me. I want to see even more of your progress and I want this company to shine differently under your hand.”

She had high hopes for Aurora.

As for Tessa, all she could give her was that share of the company.

Her poor health was one thing, but her ability simply did not compare to Aurora’s.

Still, Grace couldn’t spell that out too plainly.

Some things needed to be understood without being said–everyone here was an adult, and pride mattered, especially with Tessa.

Grace knew her far too well.

She understood how easily this kind of matter could wound her self–esteem, so she chose to hint at it rather than speak directly.

Tessa, on the other hand, had nothing–aside from that cold, impersonal shareholding, she hadn’t even been given the chance to prove herself.

It was precisely for this reason that Grace resolved she would not neglect Tessa at the banquet.

Meanwhile, Aurora had returned to her desk.

Her gaze settled on the plot of land in the south of the city.

During the month she had been confined to a hospital bed, she had let the matter slip from her attention.

That lapse had given Joseph the perfect chance to slip in and take advantage.

But things were different now. She was back on her feet, and anything that belonged to the Walton Corporation would be taken back, one by one.

Whether it was a piece of land or a business partnership, she would never let Joseph get it for cheap. Taking advantage of someone’s misfortune was far from honorable.

And considering she had originally intended to negotiate with him in good faith, his attitude had proven he wasn’t worth the effort.

Looking back, she realized even thinking of holding a proper negotiation with him had been a waste of time.

With the way Joseph carried himself, there was no chance of a good outcome. If that was the case, she might as well focus her energy on things that truly mattered.

With her mind made up, Aurora decided to reach out directly to the project’s partner.

After all, Joseph hadn’t actually secured the deal yet, which meant the opportunity was still open. All he had done so far was meet the partner, share a meal, and narrow the distance between them.
