Daniel pondered this for a moment, then picked up his phone and dialed his cousin, Spencer Quimby.
"Daniel?" Spencer sounded surprised. His side of the family was not heavily involved in the affairs of the group or
the family. Spencer enjoyed a carefree life, knowing that the family would support them, and didn't bother paying
attention to power struggles.
However, Daniel's call today made him feel uneasy.
"Daniel... Is something wrong?"
Without beating around the bush, Daniel asked directly, "Where's your car?"
"Oh..." Spencer was puzzled but answered truthfully, "A few cars have been sent for maintenance. I haven't gotten
mine back yet... Sigh, the worker in charge of maintenance is really clumsy. I've urged him several times, but he
keeps saying the spare parts haven't arrived. Fortunately, I don't miss that particular car, so I didn't bother arguing

Daniel's gaze dimmed slightly.
He hung up, instructed the doctor to take good care of Maisie, and went alone to the hospital where the pregnant
woman was.
However, he didn't expect to witness what he did at the hospital entrance.
A suspicious figure was loitering, looking around stealthily, and then a car stopped there. The man went up to the
car, and another man got out. The moment they met, they started arguing.
"Why are you here?"
"Nonsense! If I didn't need the money, would I have come to you?"
Daniel was surprised. In the dim light, he saw that one of them was Owen, and the other man had come out of
Spencer's car!
"Hey, nice car!" Owen's hands were in his pockets, making him look like a ruffian, before he patted the car.
The man hurriedly stopped him, carefully examining the places he had patted.
"This is not my car! Don't touch it just like that!"
"I know, I know! The license plate shows it obviously belongs to the Quimbys!" Owen grinned. "Bro, we both have a
connection to the Quimbys. I'm asking you for money. That isn't too much!"
"You..."
"You're just an employee of the Quimbys, and my sister will soon be the mistress of the Quimbys!" Owen looked
smug. "If you don't give me the money, I'll let the Quimbys know you used the car without permission!"
"Don't overreact!" The man, who looked angry and embarrassed, said, "You don't even know the whole story... This
—This is not me using the car without permission, but..."
"Alright, alright! Why all this nonsense? Where's the money?"

be the mistress of the Quimbys, right? Then why don't you go to your brother-in-law for money?"
Owen widened his eyes, unable to say anything.
If he could have squeezed a few bucks out of Daniel, why would he have bothered coming here?
"Heh, don't think I don't know who you're working for!" Owen gritted his teeth. "Actually... our goals are aligned—we
just want money! I've done things for her too. We're... on the same side, aren't we?"
"I'm not an outsider and I'm just asking for some money. Why are you so uncooperative?"
"You better leave!" The man didn't want to argue with him, and the two of them began to shove each other.
Obviously, Owen was no match for the man, so he was quickly pushed away.
Taking advantage of the situation, the man quickly entered the hospital and went upstairs.
Cursing and grumbling, Owen kicked the car, making it emit a sharp alarm sound. Startled, he ran off.
Daniel, who was hidden in the shadows, had witnessed everything with a frown.
