Chapter 232 Daniel Took the Initiative to Talk to You? 

The lie had already been told, it was impossible to take it back and admit it. I decided to stubbornly deny it, and with that resolution, I felt justified in not saying more to him. 

The night was late, and after a day of hustle and bustle, I was quite tired. Having said that, I went straight to bed to sleep. 

Fortunately, Walter didn’t press further. He just sighed slightly and obediently went to sleep on the floor at the foot of the bed. 

That night, it was relatively peaceful. 

The next day. 

I was awakened by a burst of ringing from my phone. Still groggy from sleep, I answered the call without clearly seeing who the caller was, and instinctively mumbled a drowsy “Hello” into the phone. 

A cool male voice came from the other end of the phone, “Ms. Conner, it’s me, Daniel.” 

Daniel? 

After being stunned for a few seconds, my mind suddenly cleared. I cleared my throat and said into the phone, “Hello, Mr. Monroe.” 

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be in a good mood, their voice slightly magnetic as they said, “Did I disturb your rest by calling you so early?” 

I shook my head, realizing that he couldn’t see my gesture through the phone. I couldn’t help but say into the phone, “No, it’s also time to get 

40 Vour bers 

1. Do you… need something from me?” 

“Um!” The person on the other end of the phone began, his pleasant voice slowly saying, “I’m thinking of investing in some things in River City. I met with Mr. Smith from city construction last night, and he told me that you’re also planning to take over the projects in the southern part of River City. I just arrived in River City and I don’t want to spread myself too thin for the time being. I wanted to ask you, are you interested in us partnering up and taking over all the projects in the southern part of River City together?” 

I didn’t expect that he called me so early because of this matter. Originally, I was planning to discuss this with him to see if we could reach an agreement. I didn’t expect him to approach me first. 

For a moment, he couldn’t contain his joy and said, “That’s great, Mr. Monroe, are you there? Let’s schedule a phone call to discuss our cooperation.” 

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to chuckle lightly, saying, “I’m at…” 

“Who called!” A deep, slightly hoarse voice rang out, too abrupt, Daniel on the other end of the phone stopped halfway through his 

sentence. 

Hearing the sound, I looked up to see Walter climbing up from the mattress at the foot of the bed, looking at me sleepily and asking, “Why are you calling so early? Is it something important?” 

His voice was husky and pleasant to listen to. 

It took me a good while to realize that I had stayed in the old house last night, sharing a room with him. Looking at him, I opened my mouth, not knowing what to say. 

Helplessly, I had to say to Daniel on the other end of the phone, “Mr. 

Monroe, you can send me the address, or I can send you the address, and we can meet up later to talk.” 

After a brief silence, the person on the other end of the phone finally spoke, “Did I disturb you?” 

I quickly shook my head, “No…” 

“Alright, we’ll talk later.” A slightly deep male voice came from the other end of the line. Through the phone, I naturally couldn’t discern the mood on the other side, but I don’t know if I was overthinking it, I always felt that Daniel seemed a bit unhappy when he heard Walter’s voice. 

The phone was hung up. 

Walter, squinting his dark eyes at me, his voice low and restrained, “Mr. Monroe? Daniel?” 

I nodded, calmly saying, “He came to me to discuss about collaborating on several projects in the southern district.” 

Walter pursed his lips, his dark eyes becoming unfathomably deep. After a long pause, he finally asked, “Did he actively seek you out for cooperation?” 

I nodded, though I was quite curious inside, I didn’t show anything unusual on my face. 

At that moment, there was a knock on the door from outside, followed by the sound of Odin’s voice. 

Hearing the noise outside, Walter rose to his feet and called out, “What’s going on?” 

“Something happened at West Residence, the old lady wants you to go. there,” Odin spoke. 

After hearing his words, both Walter and I were taken aback, West Residence?
