"Pathetic singleton!"With Violet's backing, Billy shouted at Liam, then happily followed Violet to enjoy dessert.Liam was rendered speechless.He noticed that every time someone more popular than him appeared at home, he would become the one suffering.But these people were important in Lana's life, so he could only endure.Liam could endure, but Lincoln couldn't."Sir, they actually dared to insult you?" Lincoln tried to appear menacing, making a neck-cutting gesture. "Should I go …"Liam took a sip of tea. "Sure, go ahead. Kill them all and avenge me."Now, it was Lincoln's turn to lose composure. "What? K-Kill them?"Liam imitated his neck-cutting gesture. "Didn't you want to kill someone?""I-I didn't say that." Lincoln just wanted to scare Billy and the others. There was no intention to actually kill anyone."Then what are you blabbering about?"With that, Liam went to the dining room to enjoy dessert, leaving Lincoln alone in confusion.In the dining room, the Traf
If Liam remembered correctly, this was the USB drive Lana had always used.Why was it in Billy's hands now?"Boss gave it to me before leaving the country." Billy could tell that Liam had a lot to say, but he just explained briefly, "The data inside is what she sent me via email yesterday. It's related to Adrian."Liam tightened his grip over the pink crystal USB drive as if he could still feel Lana's warmth lingering on it. "Why are you giving me this?"Billy shrugged. "I believe you can make greater use of it than I do."Liam finally smiled. "Thanks."However, the Traffic Light Trio remained in place, staring blankly at Liam.In novels, authors would describe someone's smile as so dazzling that it could blind people. They always thought it was an exaggerated expression.No one's smile could really blind others.But today, the Traffic Light Trio felt the truth behind such a description when they looked at Liam."What's wrong?" Liam noticed them staring at him. "Are you not g
Lana and her parents had been living in this remote country for quite some time now.The climate was excellent, with temperatures never exceeding 86 degrees Fahrenheit year-round. The town was surrounded by lush greenery and blooming flowers, making it a perfect place to settle down.Lately, Lana had grown fond of this place. Every morning after breakfast, she would take a stroll in the nearby park.As she admired the unfamiliar streets and envisioned the appearance of her unborn child, she felt that life here was peaceful and leisurely.One day, after her walk, Lana habitually returned to her study and opened her laptop.Despite being abroad, she never neglected her work. She often handled affairs for Zanteles through her laptop. Today was no exception.However, after Lana opened her laptop and processed the tasks for Lana-Stellar and the spa, she discovered an unfamiliar email address at the end of the list.Lana's email was private, known only to those close to her. So, she i
When Liam contacted Lana under his new identity, trouble struck Dawsbury City.The companies that initially had no intention of collaborating with Adrian were now desperately seeking partnerships.Adrian should be happy that they were willing to lower themselves to cooperate, but he acted aloof. He made them face rejection multiple times before finally agreeing to collaborate.Not only that, Adrian even forced them to sign agreements, preventing them from working with other companies once they joined forces with Balany.And these companies actually willingly signed this agreement, which was simply a great humiliation.It was said that the list of companies eager to cooperate with Adrian was continuously growing.It would be fine if these were all ordinary companies. But they happened to be in manufacturing, aerospace technology, and even communications technologies. Those were fields that every country attached great importance to. It made people begin to doubt the intentions o
"W-What are you doing?" Lincoln was tied to a tree, and he was so anxious that he began stammering.However, the Traffic Light Trio had no intention of letting him go. They wouldn't let go of anyone involved in a scandal with Liam.Thus, Lincoln spent the night tied to the tree.Even though he didn't return overnight, Liam didn't notice. It was an elderly man who was out for morning exercises who discovered Lincoln and rescued him.After this incident, Lincoln vowed not to get involved in matters related to the Traffic Light Trio anymore.…As important enterprises in Zanteles were changing their minds to collaborate with Balany, many Zantelians had already noticed the problem.Some emotionally charged individuals went to the doors of the related companies, holding signs and protesting.However, in the face of the dissatisfaction and protests from Zantelians, these companies remained indifferent. They still planned to work with Balany. They issued perfunctory statements unrel
"Did you just slap me?"Emilia quickly got up from the ground, glaring at the visibly alarmed Mitchell.The overwhelming presence of a long-standing, influential figure surged relentlessly, sweeping toward Mitchell. He felt weak in the knees.Emilia's bearing alone crushed Mitchell.However, as her father, he firmly believed that Emilia wouldn't dare to defy him. So he forced his head upward and glared at Emilia. "What's wrong? I'm your father. If you've done something wrong, am I not allowed to slap you?Emilia didn't flinch. Instead, she walked toward Mitchell. "What have I done wrong?"In this situation, she still dared to stay stubborn?Mitchell was frustrated. "What did you tell me back then? Didn't you say that the Adrian guy had no issues? Now the whole country is criticizing him, yet you're still sheltering him. Are you trying to ruin our family?"Get rid of him now, or you'll never be recorded in the Cooper family records. We don't need someone like you in the family
Watching Mitchell's bewildered expression, Emilia felt a sense of satisfaction."You don't know how to deal with me, right?"Emilia's triumphant expression angered Mitchell, but indeed, he had no way to deal with her.Ever since Emilia took control of the Watson family, outwardly, it seemed like she handed over the entire Watson family to him. She even allowed Mitchell's trusted relatives to live in the Watson Residence.However, in reality, Emilia held all the power within the family.Even these bodyguards only followed her orders.After realizing this, Mitchell suddenly broke into a cold sweat. His seemingly glamorous life was all thanks to Emilia. The entire Cooper family relied on her."Why aren't you saying anything?" Emilia calmly adjusted her clothes, her eyes revealing a hint of coldness as she looked at Mitchell.After a change of mind, Mitchell thought of a way to deal with Emilia."Don't you just want to be in the Cooper family records? How about this? You release a
"You're the ones who abandoned me in the first place! Why should I care for the family now?"If Mitchell had really cared about her, he wouldn't have sent her to a place where she wasn't welcome, and she wouldn't have been subjected to constant humiliation!After Emilia grew up and returned to the family, Mitchell still treated her like a cash cow. He forced her to work hard to make money for Maverick.Mitchell was the least bit concerned about her well-being. After he had exploited Emilia to the fullest, he only wanted to get rid of her from the Cooper family.Someone like him wasn't even qualified to be a father. Now, Mitchell even dared to accuse Emilia of letting down the family!Just when Mitchell was speechless and unable to defend himself, Maverick returned home.He walked as if he were in a trance, his eyes lifeless. His whole body seemed to have been drained of energy.Ever since arriving at Dawsbury, Maverick had been partying like crazy.Emilia could tell that Maveri
