The enemy's path is narrow（1）

"She glanced down and gave a helpless smile. While family matters should not be aired in public, she did not want to take advantage of others and pretend to be something she was not. So she explained the complex relationship to Brandon Chen.

After a few seconds of silence, Brandon Chen suddenly stood up, walked over to her and took her hand. "Don't worry, if being close to me can change your parents' view of you, then feel free to use me. I'm happy to help."

Jane felt overwhelmed by his offer, fearing he might misunderstand her intentions. Sensing her discomfort, Brandon Chen leaned in closer and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, I just want to listen to music."

Their proximity and posture were slightly ambiguous when someone walked in. Jane immediately stepped back from Brandon Chen. Following her gaze, Brandon Chen saw Emma Garcia and politely smiled at her, extending his hand. "Hello, Uncle Garcia."

Brandon Chen was naturally warm and good-looking, and the casual use of "uncle" from his mouth was particularly pleasing to Emma Garcia. She couldn't help but take a second look at her daughter. With her rosy lips, white teeth, and peach-blossom face, she could hardly tell that she was a married woman with children. With her looks, it was no surprise that men were drawn to her."

"Hello, nephew Garcia, I didn't expect you to come to Starlight. You really add brilliance to Starlight."

Since the other party respectfully addressed him as uncle, Brandon Chen didn't hold back either. He smiled politely and began to chat with Emma Garcia. Emma Garcia recently wanted to bid on a project related to artificial intelligence, but the Garcia family had no experience in this area. Originally, she had planned to collaborate with John, but her daughter had divorced John and she no longer had the capital to talk about collaboration. She was feeling upset about missing the opportunity to make money when she heard that her daughter had become involved with Brandon Chen.

Although the Chen family could not compare to the John family, they were still an existence that the Garcia family could not reach. Being able to climb up this big tree was naturally good.

Jane, who was standing on the side, listened to Emma Garcia occasionally mentioning the project related to artificial intelligence and couldn't help but sneer.

Garcia had been in the real estate business all along and had made a lot of money in the past decade. However, in recent years, the government had issued a series of restrictions on property purchases, which had curbed the rise in property prices and made it more difficult to make money in real estate. Emma Garcia's vision was limited and most of her investments in other projects had failed, nearly exhausting the Garcia family's capital in recent years. However, she seemed not to have learned any lessons from these failures and still greedily wanted to venture into industries she knew nothing about.

Fortunately, Brandon Chen appeared polite but was actually shrewd and not easy to deal with. Even though Emma Garcia had made her intentions clear, he still pretended not to understand.

"Dad, Chen rarely has time to visit me. Why don't you stop talking now?" Seeing that Emma Garcia couldn't stop, Jane had to pretend to act like a spoiled child and go over to take his arm, diverting his attention.

Emma Garcia hesitated for a moment, looked at Brandon Chen and her daughter, and then patted her daughter's hand gently. "Alright, you and Mr. Chen talk, I still have things to do, I'll leave first."

Jane took the opportunity to see him off, but unexpectedly met Elizabeth and Alice Garcia outside the door. It looked like they had been standing there for a while.

"By the way, Dad, my office was taken over by one of the company's artists. I want to come to the company to work in the future. Can you help me speak up and get my office back?" She was still acting like a spoiled child, her beautiful face showing a hint of displeasure, and her pink, cute lips slightly pouting.

Emma Garcia couldn't help but soften her heart and thought of Brandon Chen. She immediately looked at Elizabeth and said, "How could Jane's office be taken over by one of the company's artists? Is this not our own company anymore?"

Elizabeth looked embarrassed and said, "I don't know about this. It must be someone down below making decisions on their own. I'll have someone fix it and give it back to Jane."
