"Ah, so you are a chef." Dakota smiled stiffly. He felt guilty because of her previous thoughts. He shouldn't judge someone based on their appearance alone. Even though he used to be judged by many people just by his appearance, he felt no different from those people.The man who had almost finished his food glanced at Dakota, then raised the food with a small gesture. "Thank you for the food, and sorry for startling you earlier." The man said it sincerely, and Dakota cursed himself for having misjudged the man and carelessly pitied him.Dakota shook his head. "Not a problem."But the man didn't seem to accept. "I have to pay for what you gave me." He insisted.Dakota didn't feel he needed to go that far. "You didn't have to bother, I helped you without much thought." Dakota rejected him.The man got up from where he was sitting and threw the empty food wrapper into the trash can that was a short distance from their seats. "You can't do that. I'm a man of principles. If someone gives

"Don't make that confused face, I know you're a rich man." Dave chuckled at Dakota.Dakota narrowed his eyes to look at Dave. "How did you know-""Know?" Dave cut in. "Don't get confused, just look at the clothes you're wearing. How could I not recognize you." Bright Dave pointed at Dakota with his glance.Dakota looked at what he was wearing, and he nodded. Lately, he had been paying more attention to his appearance because everything was going well. His investments were in a safe situation, trading was going smoothly, and he would also build a company together with Anna in the future, so he paid attention to his appearance. Since he could spend his money on extravagant expenses like the clothes from luxury brands that he wore, he just adjusted it. After all, he was no longer a poor Dakota but a successful investment in his field.Dakota finished his meal, and he wiped his lips with a tissue. "What can you offer from the investment you want? I don't think it matters much to me if it'

"When are you going to start deciding to become the head of this company?" Anna walked beside him.They were at the company office they had discussed for a few weeks. The office was already up and running. But Dakota only came for a small tour accompanied by Anna.Dakota stares at the minimalist office while observing what the employees are doing there and noticing if anything is missing from the place. He would soon add his needs to Anna's. "I can't join you now."Anna looked at him in surprise. "You still have no intention of joining?" Anna stopped them near the corridor that connected each room.From the beginning, Dakota did not intend to focus only on that matter. He asked for Anna's help for a reason. He wanted Anna to be hia representative there while he worked on other things simultaneously. "I can't stay with just one company. That's why I'm proposing this partnership with you. I'll still be a part of the company but I won't stay." He explained. "All work will require my perm

"How could this man pay for it." The man looked at Dakota with both eyebrows knitted together; earlier, he had been clumsy and lost for words when Anna said that he did not pay for the food, but Dakota was the one who bought it. He then turned his gaze to the entire restaurant. "Look, this place is a fancy restaurant. It's not a cheap franchise restaurant, so there's no way she can afford it." He then laughed at Dakota.The man seemed to be enjoying the time he was making fun of Dakota in front of Anna. While Anna stared at him with dislike, she felt annoyed by the man's presence. But Anna chose to keep quiet because she saw Dakota was calm enough to respond to the man.Dakota smiled faintly at her with a look that belittled his remark. He knew he didn't need to panic or get emotional with such a frivolous remark. "What if this isn't a franchise restaurant?" He glanced around the room. "I know what kind of restaurant this place is. Choosing this place means I'm agreeing to pay for the

The man named Allan almost unleashed his punch on Dakota. But he managed to hold back with all his might, considering that the place was quite prestigious and he didn't want to be marked by the restaurant, which would make him blacklisted from the guest list forever. "Stop lying to me, Dakota, I know you. Something like that couldn't have happened to you." he snorted, belittling Dakota with a glint in his eye. "The people in that place are professionals. How could you, with no experience, join them."It made sense. Dakota was the one who made the requirements for hiring her workers. He wanted people with high skills in each field, but that didn't mean he rejected people who were still starting their careers. His benchmark is on the applicants' potential, while experience he believes will add up over time."You don't know that I'm a professional at what I do?" Dakota toyed with his words. He seemed to be sitting calmly while his demeanour was so relaxed, unlike Allan, who tried to inti

"But doesn't it feel unattractive?" Dakota asked him. At first, Dakota felt happy that she could prove hi,self in another way in front of Allan. But then he feels that something is missing if he is just doing a proof. He didn't think that it meant anything to her. The satisfaction he received was non-existent.Allan looked at her with a crooked look. "What do you mean?" He didn't understand what Dakota was saying at all.Anna secretly hid a laugh behind the hand that covered her lips. She knew Dakota was up to something, and she hoped what Dakota was about to do would be a lesson to the man.Dakota glanced away slowly, then back at him. "There has to be something at stake for this to be fair." Proving himself in front of Allan would give him nothing but shut the man up by shaking him mentally through what he never expected. Allan responded to Dakota's words coldly. He didn't think about betting because his goal was only to humiliate Dakota, while Dakota ignored that gaze. "If I can pr

Allan looked at Dakota carefully. Then, he noticed something different about Dakota. "He does look a little different," Allan murmured. The thing he just realised from Dakota is that the man no longer looked hesitant like before. His eyes seemed full of confidence when looking at people directly, while he used to always try to avoid the gaze of others.Dakota caught his gaze. "Just ask David, and he'll explain. Or you can ask Anna. He also knows a lot about D&Na Corp." Dakota pointed at David and Anna with a gesture of her eyes.Anna looked straight at him. "Alright, if you're ready to listen, I'll explain. Listen carefully." Anna changed her sitting position. "D&Na is a company made up of the two of us, with Dakota as the largest shareholder and then me. For now, I'm the one who monitors the company's running. At the same time, Dakota prefers to get regular reports and then make major decisions on important permits that the company must carry out." Anna glanced at Dakota for a moment.

Anna came out of the D&Na corp building with a glum face. Dakota watched her from behind the car he was driving. Then he stopped the car right in front of Anna. Dakota lowered the windshield, and he turned to Anna. "What's wrong with your face?"Anna looked at him with a tired look on her face. She gave a small snort, and momentarily, she just looked at Dakota without speaking. Then, her feet stepped around to the other side of the car. She opened the door and then plopped down to sit there. "My head is spinning from my dad." She complains right after she sits down next to Dakota.Dakota glanced at her with a small smile, then turned his gaze back to the road and accelerated his vehicle. "You don't have to think about it too much." He replied casually.Today, Dakota picked Anna up for one reason. Anna told her over the phone yesterday that her family wanted to meet with Dakota, and Dakota agreed to come meet with them.Anna turned her body toward Dakota. "How can I be calm?" Anna looke
