Chapter 1642:
It was obvious Ethan was desperate, his tone taking on a pleading note as he tried to strike a deal.
Hamilton stood off to the side, surprised to see Ethan acting this meek. Whenever Ethan had asked Hamilton for
money in the past, he had done it with arrogance and swagger. Yet now, he was nothing but respectful in front of
Daniela.
“You'll get five percent,” said Daniela, her voice sharp and unyielding.
The number nearly knocked Ethan off his feet. “Hold on, are you serious?”
“I told you already, it’s different now,” Daniela replied, rising from her seat and heading toward the dining table.
“Joining later means getting less. After dinner, make your choice. If you're willing, have your lawyer draft the
contract.”
“Unlucky” was the only word Ethan could think of to describe his situation. Things had definitely taken a turn.
Instead of having things handled for him, he now faced the task of finding his own lawyer and handling his
contract himself.
While Daniela wasted no tand began her meal, Ethan lingered, clearly unhappy, before finally signing on the
dotted line. Reluctance marked every movement as he handed over his signature.
“Fine. Now tell me, how are you actually planning to get the money from Josh?” Ethan blurted out, impatience
dripping from his voice. Billions were at stake, and he could hardly believe how easily they seemed to slip away.
“Getting money out of Josh is almost impossible. I've tried every trick, and he still turneddown. I've signed
everything, Daniela, so | hope you really have a plan.”
Raising her spoon, Daniela blew lightly on her soup. “Tomorrow at ten, meetat McCoy Group.”

Curiosity crept into Ethan's expression. “What exactly are you going to do?”
“We're going to collect what's owed,” Daniela answered, not missing a beat.
“My money, right?” Ethan asked.
Daniela’s eyelids lifted just enough for him to see her cool gaze. “That's mine now.”

Words escaped him, and Ethan could only gape in silence.
After the meal, Hamilton still looked unsettled. His concern showed as he spoke quietly to Daniela. “Josh isn’t
easy to deal with. You're expecting. Maybe | should go in your place?”
Leaning against the tall window, Daniela dialed a number. “Hello, Josh? Daniela here.”
On the other end, Josh's laugh rang out. “What's this about? Are you calling to beg for forgiveness already?”
chill filled Daniela’s eyes as she replied, “Be at McCoy Group tomorrow at ten.” Josh had barely begun to answer
when the line cut off.
Only then did it sink in, and Josh
muttered angrily to himself, om
