Chapter 69 How Did You Charm Her?
Inside Summer Estate, Kate was taken aback when she received a friend request from Miles, whose note straightforwardly identified him.
She raised an eyebrow and accepted. He promptly flooded her with messages, mostly complimenting her appearance and physique, before getting to the point: He agreed to Kate joining the collaborative project between Davison Group and his company as a designer, contingent on assessing her skills,
Kate smiled faintly as she read through Miles’s messages,
She had suggested this collaboration to Eric before, but his response had been ambiguous. Now, with Miles contacting her directly, it was clear Eric had given his approval.
Instead of replying immediately, Kate switched to her chat with Eric and typed, “Thank you, Honey!!
At Davison Group’s office, Miles, after persistent efforts, had finally acquired Kate’s contact from Eric.
He sent her a detailed message but received no immediate response.
Miles muttered to himself, wondering if Kate had lost interest in the designer role after all.
As he pondered, Eric’s phone lit up beside him.
Miles gathered his courage to check the screen, but discomfort washed over him immediately. He gazed at the chat between him and Kate with a pang of bitterness and sighing heavily.
He experienced a pang of envy once again. It made sense why Kate hadn’t replied promptly–it seemed she was responding to Eric.
Eric, too, noticed Kate’s message. His icy demeanor softened brielly, only to harden again swiftly.
He stared at the message for a moment, then replied with a curt ‘Sure.
Witnessing Eric’s indifference, Miles couldn’t help but protest, “Eric, why are you so cold to women? Is this how you win over the heart of a girl? How did you manage to charm the muse goddess?”
Miles was exasperated.
He had been acquainted with Erie for quite some time. When news of Eric’s marriage surfaced, he was surprised and expressed an interest in meeting Eric’s wife, but his request was denied.
It took three years before Miles finally encountered Kate at a dinner party, and he was.
immediately captivated.

Miles shivered under the chilly atmosphere. He rubbed his arms indignantly but chose not to say anything further. Just as he was feeling annoyed, a message from Kate popped up on his phone.
I am pleased to collaborate with you, Mr. Miles. I believe I will meet your expectations.”
Miles held his phone, grinning foolishly. ‘Even if you aren’t a designer, Mrs. Davison, your figure, appearance, and demeanor are impeccable. You could model all the designs!”
Kate couldn’t help but smile wryly at Miles’s message, though she felt a twinge of temptation.
Being a designer wasn’t enough… If she became a model, she could capitalize on Davison Group’s prestige, which would spread quickly.
Considering it, it seemed like a reasonable option.
But then Kate recalled Eric’s icy glare when Miles suggested she could model.
Her intuition told her that Eric might not appreciate her being in the limelight for everyone to
sce.
Eric had always shown possessiveness toward her, though he kept it in check.
She decided to forget it. If she wanted both Summer Group and Davison Group to flourish, if she wanted to challenge Ruth and Simon on her own terms, she needed to establish her own reputation!
