Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 149

Charlene felt as though she had stepped into a whole new world.

A smile would occasionally creep into her lips as she held the top-grade spiritual stone in her hand. Especially when she thought about the moment she had turned around and hugged Daniel in front of everyone, she felt both bashful and confused.

She had initially hesitated about Daniel's proposal to expand production, but now she didn't need to think twice. All she had to do was follow Daniel's lead.

"Daniel, you're here!"
