?Chapter 341:


    Relieved, Caiden quickly asked, “So, you have a n?”


    Dani shook her head.


    “No, I’ve never managed apany that’s this deep in the red, with such outdated equipment,ckadaisical employees, andx management. I’m just as lost as you are.”


    “What?” Caiden eximed, jumping from his seat.


    “What did you just say?”


    Dani paused her game and looked up at him, her gaze steady and her tone slightly amused.


    “Since you’re one of the major shareholders, I’m eager to hear your proposals for resolving thepany’s crisis. After all, you’ve managed it for years.


    You should have plenty of insights and experience to contribute.”


    Her words struck Caiden profoundly. If he spoke further, he would have to confess that his mismanagement had led thepany to ruin.


    Yet, as Dani’s father, his pride remained intact. He couldn’t bring himself to admit that his inadequate leadership was the reason Harper Group was teetering on the edge of failure.


    Caiden was furious.


    “So, you’re telling me thepany won’t be handing out dividends right now?”


    Dani remained focused on her phone and didn’t even spare him a nce. Caiden’s frustration boiled over at this. He wanted to smash her phone.


    “If there’s any profit, we’ll distribute dividends, of course,” Dani answered, her voice calm and steady.


    Caiden was left frozen, speechless. Profit? With thepany losing money hand over fist, the idea of making a profit seemed absurd.


    Realizing he wasn’t getting through, he changed his approach.


    “In that case, I’ll need to borrow money from thepany.”


    To his shock, Dani agreed right away.


    “Sure.”


    Caiden blinked, taken aback. He had expected a firm rejection, not this.


    Her response left him momentarily stunned. A wide grin spread across his face as he decided to push further.


    “I need to borrow ten million.”


    “Sure,” Dani replied again, her tone still casual.


    The smile on Caiden’s face quickly faded, a sense of unease creeping in. There was something about how easily she agreed that didn’t sit right with him. He furrowed his brow, his voice tinged with suspicion.


    “Why are you being so generous all of a sudden?”


    Dani nced up at him briefly, her lips curling into a small, almost yful smile.


    “You’re running low on cash. How could I be so heartless, right? You were my father.”


    For a brief moment, he felt a glimmer of relief. Just as he was about to thank her for showing somepassion, Dani continued, “And since you likely won’t be able to repay it, it’s no problem—you can always use your shares to cover it. Of course, borrowing from thepany requires a promissory note, and the interest rate will be higher than what the bank offers. Just so you’re clear.”


    Caiden’s face darkened, his momentary relief evaporating, reced by fresh anger.


    Meanwhile, Cedric sat across the room, absorbed in a game. As he listened to Dani’s words, a faint smirk curled on his lips.
