Chapter 548 A Lost Cause Eugene had never introduced Violeta to Harvey.
Harvey was growing increasingly frustrated, but Eugene remained calm.
Eventually, Harvey could no longer contain his irritation.
At the Brewclub, with its vibrant bar lights casting a spectrum of colours, Harvey laid his cards on the table. "Eugene, what's this deal you keep hinting at? I don't have tfor this endless back-and-forth." Eugene had long understood Harvey's true intentions.

Had Violeta not been slow to respond, Eugene would have already cut ties with Harvey.
With Violeta's approval to proceed, Eugene told Harvey, "The arrangement is straightforward. You want to get close to a wealthy woman, correct? I can provide a suitable candidate. She'll meet your requirements." Harvey stiffened, a shiver running through him.
He hadn't anticipated that Eugene would see through his plans so easily.
All his scheming to get close to Violeta seemed futile now that Eugene was fully aware of his game.
He tried to stall for time.
"What are you talking about? I don't quite understand." Eugene swirled his drink, maintaining a casual yet assertive tone. "Stop pretending. The deal is that I'll supply you with all the details you need about this wealthy woman. Your task is to get close to her and report back every detail of your interactions. So, what's it going to be?" Harvey narrowed his eyes, revealing his cunning nature.
"How can I be sure you're telling the truth?" Eugene chuckled. "As I've said, this deal is advantageous for you with no risks. Besides, what would I gain from deceiving you?" Harvey fell silent, deep in thought.
Eugene, growing impatient with the delay, pressed, "Yes or no? If you refuse, we're done here." After a tense minute, Eugene stood up to leave.
Harvey called after him, "Alright, I accept." Eugene paused but did not turn around. "I'll send you the details later. Watch for my message." As Eugene exited the Brewclub, he sent a message to Violeta, "It's done." Violeta replied, "Thanks for your hard work, Eugene." Hattie, having postponed several commitments, traveled to Harbor City to visit Hannah.

True to form, as soon as Hattie arrived, Hannah demanded to know if she had found a suitable man. Hattie sighed with exasperation. "Not yet." Hannah snapped, "Are you even paying attention? Do you have any idea what you should be doing right now?" Hattie retorted, "Of course I know, but Mom, finding the right man isn't easy. And Quinston is such a small place. If there was a suitable match, you would have introduced him toalready, and I wouldn't even have to took. You're the one who always wants to control my life." Hannah fumed, "So now you're challenging me? Do you think you can defy me? "Look at your situation. You started your career earlier than your peers, but look where you are now. I even introduced you to several influential people." Hannah's constant reprimands felt like a never-ending lecture.
Hattie was fed up.

"Alright, Mom, are you done? Did you bringhere just to lesture me? I've been following your advice. Isn't that ΕΠ enough?" Hannah remained unimpressed. "If you had truly followed my advice, you'd be working harder! "Starting tomorrow, I'll personally train you in acting. And you'll also need to write a character profile for me." Hattie frowned. "A character profile? I don't know how to do that."
Hannah's eyes widened. "You don't even know how to write a character profile?Nt's cleaf you haven't put any real effort into your acting career!" Hattie knew she was at fault and fell silent.
Hannah rolled her eyes, exasperated.
Though her daughter might not have inherited her sharp intellect, atleast she wasn't completely lacking in appearance. Otherwise, she would've been a lost cause! Half a month later.
