"You win."

Florence closed her eyes resignedly, her fingers tracing circles on Chen An's firm abs, a relaxed smile appearing on her lips that she herself didn't even realize.

"This morning, I will have my assistant team liaise with your Titan Technology legal department."

"Lumière's entire network of high-end channels in Europe is open to you."

"And the wild iris extract you made will only be used as the base for the top-tier limited edition jointly developed by our two major groups."

"Controlling stake...51 percent, is yours."

The queen, who slipped and fell in the mud on the farm last night, has completely surrendered her entire business empire this morning.

"That's right, a woman who knows how to seize the moment is never short of rewards."

Chen An stroked her hair. "Besides these, I'll have someone custom-make a batch of the highest concentration of iris liquid gold for you, without any additives."

"As long as you come to the manor every time you do this, just like last night... and apply it yourself."

Florence blushed so deeply it looked like blood, but under Chen An's undisguised and aggressive gaze, she obediently nodded.

"Now, put on your clothes, new employees."

Chen An patted her back, rolled out of bed, and said, "It's time to go to the main room and have breakfast with your 'colleagues' and 'bosses'."

……

Half an hour later, on the first floor of the main house.

The huge open kitchen was filled with the enticing aroma of butter and the sound of music.

Although Florence desperately wanted to maintain her image as the president of a multinational corporation.

But since the suit she brought yesterday was covered in mud and the evening gown wasn't suitable for the morning, she could only reluctantly wear a loose-fitting, pure white cotton shirt by Chen An.

This "boyfriend shirt" style might just look sexy on other girls.

But when worn by the usually impeccably tailored French Swan, her dazzlingly long legs, paired with her complex expression that was both timid and haughty, made her even more captivating.

"Oh ho!"

As Chen Angang led Florence into the living room, Jessica, who had been sitting on the sofa, immediately jumped up, hands on her hips like a victorious little hen.

She was wearing a pink floral loungewear outfit, making no attempt to hide her gossipy gaze as she looked her up and down.

"I told you so last night! What European aristocracy, what a cold-blooded CEO."

"Once you enter our Titan Manor, you'll have to surrender before midnight."

"How about it, Katie! You lost your one-hour bet!" Jessica shouted triumphantly toward the kitchen.

Katie, wearing a little apron and carrying a frying pan, came out and glanced at Florence, who was all smiles but also extremely embarrassed.

"Yes, yes, you win! I never expected that a French celebrity could have such a loud voice... mmm mmm."

Before the sharp-tongued cook could say anything more outrageous, Chen An walked over, grabbed a washed "white pearl" strawberry, and stuffed it directly into Katie's chattering little mouth.

"Be polite to your new colleague. You scared her." Chen An warned, but a smile played on his lips.

Sarah, sitting at the head of the long table, smiled as she watched the routine "welcome quiz," her pregnant belly just beginning to show.

As the head housekeeper, she naturally offered a way out for the newcomers.

"Ignore those two brats, Florence." Sarah waved and patted the empty seat next to her.

"You must be tired from last night's 'business visit.' Come and have a seat. Today, try Katie's French breakfast, which she's modified using our own ingredients."

"You French people have the absolute right to judge this."

Faced with Sarah's generous and tolerant aura, Florence felt a sense of guilt.

She tightened the hem of her shirt and sat down somewhat awkwardly at the dining table.

At this point, Jessica still didn't want to let her go, so she squeezed to the other side.

"Hey, newbie," Jessica nudged Florence's arm and said smugly in a low voice.

"I won a limited edition LV crocodile bag in a bet, all thanks to you not staying in bed. Next time we go shopping in Los Angeles, remember... ouch!"

Before Jessica could finish speaking, Chen An flicked her forehead with his finger, giving her a crisp tap on the head.

Florence finally caught a breath of fresh air from the nobleman's aura.

Looking at the table full of women who didn't seem to harbor much hostility, treating her simply as a "newly joined wildcat in the competition for affection" in the family.

This peculiar harem ecosystem did not disgust her; on the contrary, it gave her a sense of extreme relaxation after letting go of her pretense.

This group of people is, in some ways, far more genuine than those hypocritical relatives in Paris who are always scheming to take advantage of others' wealth.

"A bet, is that it? This... Miss Jessica."

Florence regained some of her confidence as a billionaire CEO and picked up her coffee cup.

She elegantly blew away the steam, her blue eyes revealing a queenly aura.

"Put that bag on my tab. After we finish eating, I'll have the global director of Louis Vuitton in Paris personally send two sets of the haute couture spring/summer collection that haven't been unveiled at Milan Fashion Week here."

"One set is for you, and one set is for this...cute little chef."

"Really?!" Jessica's eyes widened instantly, her face filled with disbelief.

Haute couture! An unreleased spring/summer collection! The kind of exclusive, class-specific items that even money can't buy!

Katie, standing nearby with a frying pan, also listened intently.

Florence smiled slightly, giving Chen An an elegant and confident look:

"Consider this a small gift from me, the 'new employee,' to all the ladies."

"After all, I'll be serving the boss in the manor from now on. I can't be here every day because of the time difference, so please take good care of me."

In a word.

A "pledge of allegiance" that cost at least several million US dollars in privately customized gifts.

The tense atmosphere, which was just moments ago filled with sourness and slight hostility, has been transformed into laughter and joy by this unreasonable, dimensional-lowering capital's massive spending!

"My dear sister! From now on, if that fierce eagle or wolfhound scares you in this manor, Jessica will have your back!"

The young girl was directly and unhesitatingly corrupted by capital, and was so delighted that she almost became sworn sisters with this European noblewoman.

Chen An sat at the table, watching this scene of enemies turning into friends in an instant, and shook his head with a smile.

Using money to corrupt the harem is also an excellent management tactic, and this French CEO is well-versed in it.

"Alright, enough chit-chat. Let's eat."

When Chen An spoke, everyone immediately fell silent.

Katie specially made the [Black and White Double Diamond Supreme French Toast] today.
