New York, Manhattan, RAND Corporation Headquarters, Penthouse, Chairman's Office.

"I'm just saying that when people find out that he's Danny, we'll be in big trouble." Joey stood in front of the French windows, with his back to Ward, with a worried look on his face.

"Even if that's the case, we can't admit that it's him." Ward shook his head lightly, his position was always firm, he walked up to Joey with the coffee in his hand, and said seriously: "We've got to be united on this one, shall we, Joey?"

"Isn't it easier for us to mediate with him?" Joey still didn't understand why Ward just didn't want to change his mind.

Ward shook his head, and said to Joey coldly: "Do you really want to negotiate with someone who obviously has mental problems?"

"No, but we have to do the right thing." Joy couldn't help but continue to persuade Ward, she didn't want to see this matter go to extremes.

"What we did was right." Ward took a deep breath, put down the coffee cup in his hand, and then pressed Joey's shoulder and said, "I don't want to negotiate with him, but I'm considering a generous, effective , a way that is beneficial to both parties. Believe me, we will talk after all the documents are completed. Besides, I have other things for you to consider, dealing with Raj Patel’s dock.”

"Are you kidding?" Joey frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Why should we care about that broken pier?"

"Just... just treat it as helping me, please!" Ward was obviously a little embarrassed, as if there was something hidden in it that was difficult for people to know.

"Oh!" Joey couldn't help but shook his head helplessly, laughed, and said, "When we were young, you would often come to my room and beg me to do your homework for you with these words, now You use this trick again."

"It was because you helped me that I was able to pass calculus." Ward also laughed, and the memories are always so happy. He looked at Joey with hope, and asked in a low voice: "How is it?" ,this matter?"

"Okay, send the damn file to my mailbox." Joey nodded helplessly, and then left Ward's office.

After she left, Ward's face gradually disappeared, he picked up the coffee cup, and drank all the coffee in the cup in one gulp.

In the evening, when Joy returned to her home, she suddenly found that Daniel Land, whom Ward had been looking for, was sitting cross-legged in front of her apartment. On both sides of the apartment door, there were various It looks like flowers picked from the park, but they are beautifully arranged.

Joey stopped in his tracks, smiled softly, and said, "You know, maybe in other realities, this would make me feel romantic."

Daniel smiled faintly, and said, "If it were in another reality, you wouldn't have given me medicine and sent me to a mental hospital."

"Okay, it's fair." Joey lowered her head apologetically, her eyes fell on a document in her handbag, she glanced at Daniel Rand secretly, and put her right hand on her coat In his pocket, he quietly pressed a certain phone number on the mobile phone in his pocket.

Daniel Rand didn't notice Joey's small movements, but said comfortingly: "We are friends, maybe we can get along like friends."

"So you came here to show peace, through these flowers brought from the park?" Joey couldn't help laughing.

Daniel Rand also laughed, and the tense atmosphere between the two of them disappeared suddenly. He explained a little: "This is a Buddhist tradition, and it is used to remind you of our feelings, just like you gave us. My jelly beans."

Those jelly beans, Joey sighed slightly in his heart, walked forward, sat down beside Daniel Rand, looked him up and down seriously, and then asked: "Daniel, what have you been doing all these years?" What happened? Why did you come back?"

There was a wry smile on Daniel Rand's face, and he whispered: "It's hard to say, every time I want to tell my story, people will be frightened, but you and Ward, you are the only connection I have with the past, It gave me motivation in a very difficult situation. It may sound absurd, but that's all I have, and you are the only ones who can make me feel as authentic as I can be."

"I can understand, really, it's not absurd at all." Joey pursed his lips tightly, with a sad smile on his face, and said with deep emotion: "When Dad died, I was only 13 years old. At that time, I hadn’t recovered from the loss of you and your parents. At that time, I was at a loss. I didn’t care about anything anymore. This was a mechanical life, but I saw a fantasy, a dream, and I dreamed it repeatedly.”

Speaking of this, Joey curled up subconsciously, forced a smile, and then continued: "I was a child in my dream, and I went back to school. At the end of every day, I would see my father standing by the fence waiting for me. I would run to him, and the moment I rushed out the door, he would hold my hand, and then the dream would end. But his smile was deeply imprinted in my mind, and I must have had that dream no less than a hundred times.”

Hearing what Joey said, Daniel Rand couldn't help but paused slightly, his face changed slightly, and said at the same time: "I also dreamed about him, just a few days ago, when I was in the hospital. At first I thought He's a hungry gui because people where I've been, they think these guis roam the world because they're neglected by their families. I know it sounds weird, they've dosed me so much it's Most likely hallucinations."

"I think it should be, Danny." There was a wry smile on Joey's pale face, and he nodded.

However, Daniel Rand reached out and grabbed Joey's wrist, and said with a serious face: "But he smells the same, CK's cologne?"

"No, it's Marc Jacobs." The look on Joy's face began to turn cold, she broke away from Daniel's hand holding her wrist, then grabbed the bag in her hand, stood up, and said, "We Can I go inside the house?"

"Okay!" Daniel Rand didn't notice Joey's strange expression, and stood up, and then Joey opened the door, and he followed in. This was the first time he entered Joey's room openly. apartment.

After entering the door, there is a round table with pink roses and a light yellow handmade pottery on the round table. In the depth of the room, there is a glass tree with a height of two meters. It is full of glass pieces of various colors, which is very eye-catching.

"You have to treat you fairly, Danny, then you have to treat us fairly." Joey took off his coat, motioned Daniel Rand to sit down, took out a document from his bag, and said at the same time: "When my father died, I took on a lot of responsibilities. Our father created something amazing. My duty is to maintain it and strengthen it. This is our offer for your shares. I think it is very generous!"

Daniel Rand took the document with some doubts, and began to carefully read every clause on the document. He was surprised: "1 million US dollars?"

"Ward originally only wanted to give you 4000 million, but I asked him to increase the price!" Joey looked at Danny seriously, and said in a deep voice: "Think about how many things you can do with this money, you You can do whatever you want.”

"But I have to change my name." Daniel Rand's face turned livid at this moment. Of course he understands the meaning of this document. As long as he signs this document, then the Rand Group, which is up to him The business founded by his father* himself has nothing to do with him.

Joey has long expected the reaction that may occur. You must know that the market value of the entire Rand Group is tens of billions. Even considering the contributions of the Meacham family over the years, what Daniel Rand needs to inherit Its shares have shrunk somewhat, but it will also exceed 50%, which is far from being able to spend 1 million US dollars.

However, Joey and the others also have a last resort. 1 million US dollars is already the largest amount of cash that the brothers and sisters can use in private. If it is more, it must be explained to the company's board of directors. The stock price of the Rand Group is unacceptable to them.

So Joey stepped forward and said to Daniel Rand: "The whole world thinks Daniel Rand is dead, and we don't think this should change. You can choose a name you like, and you can start over , it will be fine."
