The Wrong Woman

Daniel easily grasped what Shelly meant and could relate to her feelings.

Shelly cared deeply for her children, but Sienna would eventually marry and move on with her own life, so Shelly naturally favored Felix more.

In the lower social circles, many pretended to be morally superior. Thus, Daniel appreciated Shelly's straightforwardness. She never held back her thoughts and always expressed them openly.

Daniel calmly remarked, "Mrs. Lawson, if Felix plans to enter civil service, he'll need to pass the civil service examination before being eligible for a job assignment."

Shelly smiled awkwardly. "The civil service exam is pretty tough."

Daniel reassured her, "If he's not keen on the civil service exam, he can move to Phoenicia. My family can organize a suitable position for him within the company."

Shelly's face brightened with a smile as she eagerly served Daniel some food. "Thank you, Daniel. I truly appreciate it."

"Thanks, Dan," Felix chimed in happily.
