Chapter 1609:
That night, he slept like a rock.
When he cdownstairs the following day, he asked, “Can you still smell anything floral in my room?”
The housekeeper barely looked up. “Really? | don’t catch a whiff, sir. But even if there's a trace, that’s normal.
They just moved out. The smell will fade in a few days.”
Josh’s brow knitted in frustration. “Get someone to purify the air in this place and wipe away that jasmine smell. |
don’t want it lingering.”

From across the room, Mason, still recovering at home, looked up in surprise. “Is that really necessary? The
poisonous jasmines were over on Daniela’s side, not ours. Are we seriously hiring someone just to purify the
air?”
The mere thought of harsh cleaning chemicals made Mason wrinkle his nose.
“Enough with the objections. Just do it!” Josh's suspicion was obvious as he barked the order. “I want it handled
right now!”
Later that day, Josh paid a visit to McCoy Group, lining up a meeting with their most important business partner
to talk about future cooperation.
Even in the middle of negotiations, he called hto check in.
Mason picked up, sounding harried. “We're on it, Dad. Can't you hear the machine rumbling in the background?
The place smells like chemicals now. | can barely breathe in here.”
Josh nodded, satisfied, and turned his attention back to the meeting.
At home, Daniela sat as Carol approached with news. “McCoy Group's biggest partner is meeting with Josh. If
Josh manages to win them over, McCoy Group will lose half its power. Daniela, shouldn't you do something?”
Carol's worry was unmistakable.
While McCoy Group boasted impressive strength, its organization was straightforward. Their leading partner held
half of their business.

Still, Daniela showed no sign of concern. She offered Carol a cool, reassuring smile. “We still have time.”
Afterward, Daniela’s gaze drifted to the kitchen, where Hamilton was bickering with Cedric.
Hamilton was firm. “A pregnant woman needs proper nutrition. Chicken soup is a must! If you make it so
tasteless, how is the baby supposed to get anything from it?”
Cedric remained composed. “A heavy, greasy meal isn’t good for her cholesterol. It’s not healthy for the baby,
either.”
Hamilton shot back, “That's nonsense! I've raised a whole brood of kids, and none of them ever had cholesterol
problems.”
Cedric just shrugged. “Maybe so, but you're in my kitchen now. My rules apply.”
Cedric’s resistance left Hamilton fuming, so he turned around and went looking for Daniela.
Hamilton called out, “Are you just going to stand there and let Cedric do as he pleases?”
Daniela met Hamilton's flushed, indignant glare. “Arguing over soup is a minor issue. There are much bigger
matters that demand your attention, ones you seem to be missing entirely. Have you thought about that?”
