Kian maintained a polite smile, knowing it was not possible to take Daisy directly to Simpson Group. He softly explained, "Miss Daisy, it is customary in our country for guests who have traveled a long way to rest and freshen up before meeting. The journey can be exhausting, and you need proper rest. You represent Tillery Group in Hance City, and there will be plenty of opportunities to visit Simpson Group, so there is no rush."
Although Daisy was somewhat reluctant, she eventually nodded in agreement. Kian sighed in relief, knowing that if he had taken Daisy directly to Simpson Group, Ayan might have had him waiting on the building for disposal.
After dropping off Daisy at the hotel, her itinerary was kept confidential. The Tillery Group was concerned about Daisy's safety, given their influence abroad and the enemies they had made over the years. Therefore, Daisy's schedule was kept secret.
Upon reaching the hotel, check-in had been arranged in advance. Hence, Kian and the female assistant accompanied Daisy directly to her room. Daisy had brought along two attendants, a secretary, and a bodyguard, but none of them spoke Mandarin fluently. Kian took the initiative to introduce Mona, the assistant, saying, "Miss Daisy, Mona will be by your side during your stay in Hance City. It is best to have her accompany you on your outings as she is familiar with the city and can ensure your safety."
Daisy did not refuse, just giving Mona a brief glance. After settling in the room, Kian promptly told Daisy, "Rest first. If you need to go out, let Mona guide you." Daisy nodded, unfamiliar with the local time and asked, "When can I meet Ayan?"
Mona, who had been listening since they got into the car, raised several speculative thoughts hearing Daisy call Ayan by his first name. However, as Ayan was their boss, she suppressed her curiosity.
Kian replied nonchalantly, "Rest for now. A driver will pick you up in the evening. The specific time depends on Mr. Simpson's schedule." Disappointed, Daisy nodded, refraining from insisting on meeting Ayan immediately.
After bidding farewell, Kian left the hotel room with Mona. He instructed her, "Your main task for the next few days is to accompany Daisy wherever she goes, act as a translator, and report the details directly to me."
Mona agreed but hesitated, showing signs of wanting to say something but holding back. Noticing her subtle change in expression, Kian asked, "What's on your mind?"
"Mr. Reid, what is the relationship between Miss Daisy and Mr. Simpson? Why does she keep calling him Ayan? Isn't that a bit too familiar? Mrs. Simpson wouldn't be pleased if she knew," Mona expressed a hint of displeasure. She had worked alongside Ayan's wife, Camille, and had a positive impression of her, so she was inclined to support their relationship.
As if part of a ship's crew, she wasn't pleased with external interference in their relationship. Kian hesitated briefly before whispering, "Don't speak out of turn. Miss Daisy is just a representative of Tillery Group. She will be having dinner with Mrs. Simpson this evening. How she addresses Mr. Simpson is her own business. Just focus on your job and report to me promptly!"
