After returning to Priscilla‘s side, Grace felt very pleased with herself and gave Priscilla a smug smile. "See, Vivianne's dirty little tricks mean nothing in front of Mr. Sirius, right? Even Theodore wouldn't dare utter a word in front of me."

Priscilla was also feeling quite thrilled, even though her cousin's actions seemed a bit over the top. But for dealing with people like the Danbury family who had slandered her, such tactics were necessary.

Across the table, Mr. Sirius observed the flustered Danbury family with a helpless shake of his head. Normally, he might have intervened. After all, Vivianne was Frederick's woman.

But here, the choice was clear—Priscilla over the Danburys, especially since Vivianne was just a mistress.

A flicker of envy crossed Mr. Sirius's mind. Frederick seemed to have a knack for attracting stunning women, something even he, as the acting head of the powerful Monroe family, couldn't compete with.

Shrugging off the feeling, he reaffirmed his commitm

    Grace's suggestion left Priscilla speechless. Publicly confessing to a man she'd met twice? What a joke!"Grace, don't talk nonsense."Seeing Priscilla's flustered reaction, Grace sighed. "Oh, my silly Prissy, you have to be bold! Opportunities like this don't just fall into your lap. If you're too shy, then let me help you."With that, Grace walked straight toward Sirius, leaving Priscilla anxiously stomping her foot in place, wanting to stop her but it was too late. She feared Grace might do something over the top, especially since she had already overstepped boundaries earlier and was now drunk.Reaching Sirius, Grace asked, "Mr. Sirius, forgive me if this is a bit forward, but... are you single?"The room went silent as everyone turned their attention to the pair. A ripple of nervous energy crackled through the crowd, suddenly curious about Sirius's answer.Sirius's expression darkened as he looked at Grace disapprovingly. To ask such a personal question in such a public

    However, Sirius remembered his grandpa's desperate need for Frederick's treatment and the importance of keeping Priscilla happy.He forced himself to swallow his anger once again. "I don't have a girlfriend."At worst, he could always smooth things over to the women he was currently involved with, and it shouldn't be too complicated.Grace was secretly thrilled as this was precisely the answer she'd hoped for.Sirius was single and clearly had feelings for Priscilla."Mr. Sirius is so talented. It's a shame he doesn't have a girlfriend," a guest sighed, prompting murmurs of agreement. "If I meet anyone suitable, I'll introduce them!"Sensing her plan nearing success, Grace took another drink and asked, "Do you like anyone in particular?"Sirius gritted his teeth. He was barely containing his irritation; one wrong word might make him snap at Grace.However, Grace was unaware of the tension brewing in Sirius, as she was both tipsy and caught up in her excitement."Haha, I happ

    Sirius had been supporting Priscilla all along, his actions driven purely by his duty to Frederick.He'd assumed Grace was perceptive enough to understand this, but her cluelessness was infuriating!She attributed everything to Sirius having a crush on her. It was a misunderstanding that could have disastrous consequences if Frederick found out.Frederick might abandon his grandpa's life-extension treatment entirely, or worse, take a sinister turn and resort to poison.Panic surged through Sirius, shattering his usual composure."Ms. Anderson, please choose your words with care! As I've explained before, my support for Priscilla is due to a prior task entrusted to me, not personal feelings. This kind of careless speculation is incredibly dangerous."Seeing Sirius visibly flustered, Grace seized the opportunity to tease him. "Look, everyone! Mr. Sirius is blushing and scrambling for excuses. Who else could possibly command Mr. Sirius to work tirelessly for three years? Does anyone

    Vivianne's words sent a chill through Grace. The possibility of Frederick revealing Priscilla's past marriage had worried her, but she'd forgotten Vivianne knew the secret as well."Vivianne, stop lying! What divorce?" Grace's voice trembled with anger as she snapped.Vivianne smirked at Grace's panic. She sneered, "Lies? Everything's publicly recorded these days. Any CEO here could easily look up a person's marital status. Do a quick search, Ms. Sirius. See if Priscilla's divorce isn't right there for everyone to find."Grace was rendered speechless as she knew Vivianne was right. This was the era of information, where secrets were hard to keep.Sirius's mind whirled. He couldn't believe his ears. "Ms. Miller, are you divorced?" he asked Priscilla, his voice laced with disbelief.The formality returned; Priscilla was "Ms. Miller" once again, no longer "Prissie".Grace still tried to intervene. "Ms. Sirius, please hear me out."Sirius had long held a grudge against Grace. No

    Grace's dreams of success were crumbling before her eyes."Gentlemen, please don't go! Let's continue our discussions about the Jenaire City hotel project."The men shook their heads in dismay.Cooperate with her? They wanted nothing more than to distance themselves."Ladies, Mr. Sirius is furious. Please step back. We don't want to be caught in the crossfire."One by one, the men departed while Priscilla watched in despair.How had it come to this?Just moments ago, she was poised to become Jenaire City's leading businesswoman. Now, it was all ruined! And the reason? Her divorce!The thought made her seethe. If only she hadn't married Frederick, this golden opportunity wouldn't have slipped through her fingers. Vivianne watched the drama unfold and couldn't resist a gleeful laugh."Well, isn't this entertaining!"Seeing the woman who had orchestrated her downfall, Priscilla broke down. "Why must you always work against me?" Vivianne was taken aback.Vivianne was rende

    Sirius had completely lost his usual composure in his office.The office resembled a warzone, with overturned tables and sofas, and shattered remnants of once-breakable objects scattered across the floor.Noticing the commotion, Wayne entered the office and was utterly dumbfounded by the chaotic scene. This was unlike any display of anger he had ever witnessed from Sirius."Mr. Sirius, what happened?"Sirius raged as he violently flung an ashtray to the ground. The expensive crystal ashtray shattered into countless fragments."Priscilla has divorced Mr. York!"Wayne's eyes widened in shock. "What? Priscilla divorced Mr. York? Then doesn't that mean all your previous efforts were for nothing?"Sirius's anger intensified at this revelation. Three years of meticulous planning, even risking his own life by ingesting poison to test Frederick's medical skills, had nearly resulted in his demise.Yet, all he had to show for it was Priscilla's divorce from Frederick, rendering his effor

    "I'm not like that foolish Priscilla, oblivious to how everything she has is thanks to Frederick's support. I understand Frederick saved the life of the Monroe family head. That's why you all treat him like royalty."Sirius gave a subtle nod. It turned out Vivianne knew the whole story. Clearly, she was much closer to Frederick than his ex-wife, Priscilla.Sirius made up his mind to befriend Vivianne!Without hesitation, he told her Frederick's room number. Vivianne stormed out of the office, the room number clutched in her mind.Watching Vivianne leave, Sirius addressed Wayne, "We need to cultivate a strong relationship with the Danbury family. We have to discuss potential collaborations with Theodore soon. Find ways to support the Danburys and make sure they feel indebted to the Monroes."Wayne nodded swiftly. "Right away, Mr. Sirius. And what shall we do about Priscilla?"Sirius's eyes hardened. He'd nearly forgotten that wretched woman. His usual polite facade was for Frederi

    Mary's case was the most severe, while Ivan's symptoms were the mildest, and Frederick could roughly deduce the sequence of transmissions among them. It was clear that Mary infected Nigel, who then passed it to Kimberly, then finally passed it to Ivan. Frederick also saw that Ivan was actually a decent person who unfortunately ended up being betrayed and infected. However, Nigel was primarily worried that Ivan might start trusting Frederick, as he wanted Ivan to believe in his capabilities to carry out his plan.Originally, he intended for Mary to insult Frederick for being poor and unskilled, but she ended up attacking him for having an unpleasant odor, which backfired when Frederick exposed her for contracting syphilis. Now, Nigel had no choice but to take matters into his own hands, he then said to Frederick, "Hehe, Frederick. We all know Ivy is a director, what exactly do you do to be worthy of her?"Nigel assumed that Frederick was just a low-level salesperson, something

    Hearing Frederick's words, Kimberly jumped with joy and stopped crying. While wiping her tears, she pointed at Mary, laughing and said, "You're covered in syphilis, yet you're making fun of me.""Slut, I wonder how many people you've slept with!" After being pointed and insulted, Mary was furious and she was ready to fight Kimberly. "You bitch! I am going to teach you a lesson!" At this moment, Nigel felt terrible. If Mary was diseased, he'd be the first victim. He grabbed Mary and shouted, "Bitch, let me teach you a lesson first. Now I know why you always wanted the lights off! I thought you were shy, but you just didn't want me to find out."In a fit of anger, Nigel slapped Mary hard across the face. Just as Mary was about to explain, she was interrupted by another slap. Holding her face, she yelled angrily, "Nigel, how dare you hit me?! Do you want me to expose all your little schemes and tricks?"Nigel froze in horror; if Mary exposed him, it would have been disastrous.

    Kimberly heard her laughter, and body odor had always been a sensitive issue for her; a wound she'd tried to cover up over the years. For Frederick to bring it up in front of everyone felt like rubbing salt into an open wound. Yet what hurt even more was Mary's laughter; as a fellow woman, it felt like salt to the wound, then roasting it. Kimberly was furious, pointed at Mary and said, "What are you laughing at? Do you want me to come over there and shut you up?"Mary felt wronged, she had only let out a reflexive laugh, but now Kimberly's anger was directed at her. "Did I laugh at you? What proof do you have that I laughed at you?""You're the one with body odor, yet you're taking it out on others. You're such an unreasonable woman!"Kimberly grew even angrier after hearing Mary's retort. "You're the one with body odor, your whole family has it!" "Look at what you're wearing, it's like you just threw on two pillowcases. You're a shameless woman, just trying to show off t

    When everyone heard Ivy's words, they laughed even more. Her words effectively confirmed that Frederick did indeed have an unpleasant odor. It wasn't entirely her fault as Kimberly's words had been a bit of a trap. "Haha, if you smell, just take a shower and don't embarrass yourself here.""With all that cheap stuff on, no wonder he has a smell."Hearing this, Frederick simply gave a slight smile and then asked Mary and Kimberly, "Are two really that fragrant?"Mary and Kimberly lifted their heads proudly after hearing Frederick's words. "Why don't you ask everyone here, ask them if we smell good or not?""Exactly, go ahead and ask."Both of them considered themselves beautiful, and of course, they would smell pleasant. The men around them quickly chimed in, especially those eager to admire Mary, who was dressed in a way that gave them a bit of eye candy. "Of course, they smell good. How could these two beautiful ladies not smell good?""Hehe, Frederick with his cheap, th

    In a hidden corner, Nigel said to Mary, "Damn it, that bumpkin Frederick keeps stealing my spotlight. I am worried that our plan won't go well later.""You should help me humiliate him properly, and Ivan's girlfriend will back you up."Mary pursed her lips and said to Nigel, "Every time something comes up, you just ask me to handle it. My bag hasn't been bought yet, and you've lost 300 thousand dollars"Although Nigel was annoyed by Mary hitting a sore spot, he kept his tone calm and replied, "Help me humiliate Frederick and talk him down in front of Ivan. After that, leave the rest to me. Once it's done, I'll get you more than one bag, I could get you ten bags and it wouldn't be a problem. I don't care about that small amount of money. You saw that Porsche just now, right? I wouldn't mind burning it if I had to." Hearing this, Mary was delighted and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you, babe." She hadn't realized that Nigel was so wealthy and even had a Porsche. Up until th

    Knowing Martin as someone who knew a lot about wood, everyone immediately looked as though they were ready for a good show. They were convinced that the Saint George statue couldn’t possibly be made of anything valuable.Martin let out a strange exclamation. "What the hell!"Kimberly, thinking that Martin was angry, quickly said, "Mr. Lawson, tell us what’s so disastrous about this wood. Are you saying it’s just a piece of junk?"Contrary to expectations, Martin replied angrily, "I’m saying that whoever preserved this Saint George statue was a jerk. This is genuine sandalwood, and yet it’s completely neglected, covered in dust."Most of the group had no idea what sandalwood was worth, but judging by the name alone, it sounded impressive.Kimberly asked curiously, "Mr. Lawson, are you saying this is really antique wood?"Martin examined the statue carefully, scrutinizing every detail. "Judging by the texture, this carving must have been made at least 150 years ago."Everyone was

    "The Saint George statue was indeed a fitting choice for a karaoke." Nigel chuckled, turning to Ivy.“Why didn’t you just go on Amazon and buy a new one for a few dozen bucks? This one is obviously second-hand. Or was it picked up from some junk stall?”Frederick heard Nigel’s mockery and nodded in agreement, a faint smile on his lips. “You’re not wrong. This statue actually was picked up from a street stall.”“At the Treasure Hall in the antique trade market, no less. And yes, it’s an antique.”The truth was, the statue was from the Victorian era. Even the owner of Treasure Hall, Dominic, had recognized its age but dismissed it as worthless, tossing it onto a stall outside.Frederick had picked it up casually, thinking it would come in handy one day, and now it was the perfect gift for Ivan.Hearing this, Nigel burst out laughing, clutching his stomach. “An antique? Treasure Hall? You’re really trying to fool us.”Kimberly chimed in, her tone dripping with sarcasm as she glance

    The group’s attention was fully captured by Frederick’s words, their eyes all on him. Nigel, knowing that Kimberly had informed Ivy at the last minute and that she likely didn’t have a gift, sneered at Frederick."Well, if you’ve got a gift, go ahead and show it.""Considering Ivy and Kimberly’s relationship, the gift should be pretty decent, right?"Everyone was now staring at Frederick with anticipation, curious to see what kind of gift he could produce.Ivy, on the other hand, was completely flustered. She hadn’t handed any gift to Frederick, though she understood he was trying to help her out of a tough spot. But wasn’t this making things even more awkward?Nigel continued to press him, "Where’s the gift? Come on, take it out already.""After all this time, you still can’t take it out. Don’t tell me you don’t even have one."Frederick glanced at Nigel with a calm smile. "Oh? Are you planning to bet 300 grand with me again?"Nigel froze. There was no way he had another 300 t

    Ivan was deeply moved, feeling as though all the unpleasantness from their school days had been swept away. A sense of childhood nostalgia, unique to old classmates, welled up within him.The crowd continued to shower Nigel with praise, giving him thumbs up one after another."A gift worth 10 grand is no small amount. Nigel is truly generous.""That’s right. These days, even classmates hesitate to prepare gifts, but Nigel has shown such generosity.."Most of the attendees had come because of their connection with Kimberly. Each had prepared gifts with costs ranging from a few hundred dollars. Compared to Nigel’s grandiose gift worth 10 thousand, their contributions paled in comparison.Hearing the compliments, Nigel waved his hand dismissively, feigning modesty. "It’s nothing, really. After all, Ivan and I are good friends from way back."Then, Nigel’s expression shifted slightly as he added, "Speaking of good friends, I’m sure it’s not just me and Ivan here who share a special b
