Chapter 1488: Easily

As soon as he finished speaking, the other party quickly agreed, and then they didn't chat much before hanging up.

Ayan put down his phone and continued working, while Kian, from Simpson Group, went straight to the coffee shop Daisy usually frequented.

The coffee shop wasn't too far from the Simpson Group's hotel, and there were other hotels in the area, so Daisy chose this place for a reason that piqued Kian's curiosity.

He had contacted the coffee shop owner through a network of connections and met the owner across the street from the coffee shop.

Kian did not disclose his identity, and the coffee shop owner had received a call from his wealthy cousin, asking him to help meet someone, so he hurried over without delay.

Upon seeing Kian, the coffee shop owner quickly greeted him, "Brother, are you familiar with my brother? Old friends?"

"Um, sort of," Kian replied casually, not wanting to chat.

Sensing his aloofness, the coffee shop owner didn't speak much either, as his wealthy cousin had been very good to him, so his cousin's friends were his friends too.

He asked Kian, "Brother, what's the matter?" Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Kian got straight to the point because the person he was looking for seemed reliable, so he didn't beat around the bush.

Kian explained his purpose and showed the owner Daisy's photo, knowing that as a foreigner, she would have left a deep impression.

So when Kian showed the photo, the coffee shop owner immediately recognized Daisy.

He quickly said, "This foreign lady has recently become a regular customer in my shop. Being a foreigner, she has made a big impression, staying for up to two hours each time. She is very generous, our small coffee shop is not like those star-rated ones, we basically don't receive tips, but this foreign lady always tips my staff generously, sometimes even exceeding their wages. To be honest, this has put a lot of pressure on me, but if someone is willing to help me support my employees, I am happy."

The coffee shop owner spoke with excitement, as having such a rare big customer in his coffee shop had brought him a lot of benefits.

After he finished speaking, he involuntarily looked at Kian and asked, "Is this foreign lady your wife?"

Why did it feel like an interrogation?

Kian didn't answer, just gave the coffee shop owner a cold look before saying, "Just think back, was she always alone when she came?"

The coffee shop owner hesitated, as telling the truth would mean losing a valuable customer, which would be a loss for him and his employees.

But he couldn't lie to his cousin's friend, so after much hesitation, he said, "Brother, I find it hard to say."

Kian said straightforwardly, "Don't worry, I didn't ask you to say it for nothing."

"I didn't mean that." He really didn't mean it.

But Kian interrupted, "Your coffee shop wants to expand, don't they? I can invest in you, how about that? Do you want to franchise? I'll not only help you expand but also help you franchise, what do you think?"

Having a franchised coffee shop and someone investing in it was much better than dealing with a foreign woman.

He naturally chose the immediate benefits.

He said, "I haven't thought about it, but I just didn't know how to tell you. How about this, I'll show you the surveillance video from the shop, you can see for yourself."

He directly pulled up the surveillance video and handed his phone to Kian.

Kian stared at the video intently. In the video, Daisy sat alone for about ten minutes before a man appeared and sat opposite her.

The man wore a cap and a mask, so his face couldn't be seen clearly.

But Kian directly recorded the man's appearance on his phone. After going through this series of actions, he returned the phone to the coffee shop owner.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, brother," the coffee shop owner said politely.

Kian nodded slightly and said, "Keep our meeting to yourself, no matter who asks, don't mention it to anyone."

"I understand."

"About what I just told you, someone will contact you later, just let him know your requirements," Kian instructed the coffee shop owner.

The owner expressed his gratitude and thanks.

Kian quickly went back to Simpson Group with the video.

He handed the video to Ayan. While Ayan watched, Kian whispered, "Mr. Simpson, I've talked to the coffee shop owner. Daisy has been going there quite frequently recently, but she only started going recently, so we need to ask his staff to find out the exact dates."

"That's Preston," Ayan said without hesitation, putting down his phone.

Kian was surprised; he hadn't figured it out at all.

He looked at Ayan and asked, "Mr. Simpson, is that really Preston?"

"Yes, it can't be anyone else," Ayan replied. "Only Preston has the ability and conditions to make Daisy want to collaborate with him."

If Preston didn't have something to offer, he wouldn't have caught Daisy's interest.

Ayan continued, "Let our people keep a low profile. Don't let Daisy suspect anything. Right now, Preston is in the dark while we are in the light. If we make any moves, he will notice, but we need evidence of his actions."

So the best course of action was to wait and see. If they did nothing, Preston couldn't predict their next move, which would keep him from moving forward.

Kian nodded in understanding but had a question, "Mr. Simpson, won't Preston be suspicious if we do nothing?"

"No, he's very confident. He'll need concrete evidence to believe anything. He expects me to be wary of him, but my caution will catch him off guard," Ayan explained cryptically, leaving Kian puzzled about the true meaning of his words.

Ayan didn't elaborate on Preston any further; instead, he looked at Kian and said, "Just make sure Daisy doesn't suspect anything, and keep in touch with Kerry. Let Kerry figure out a way to invite Daisy. If he can't pique her interest as bait, I don't mind if he uses me."

Ayan wanted to quickly deal with anything related to Daisy, as Preston's connection with her was most likely a means to exploit her for his own agenda.

Ayan wouldn't let Preston have his way so easily.
