Chad ignored Nathan as he quietly helped Marilyn open the car door before walking into the building together.Nathan sneered at the two of them but was actually quite happy inside.He had been extremely lucky over the last two days. Nathan felt like things were improving for him after learning Damon had died.He heard that Damon's revelations had caused his wife and child to flee the country overnight.There was a lot of criticism on the Internet, targeted at modern hospitals.Larger modern hospitals in other cities were also being investigated for various scandals.The entire incident was still brewing online.Nathan had essentially received the 7 million dollars Damon gave him for free. No one was going to reclaim it.So Nathan's goal for that banquet was to use the money to invest in Bellenuite.With Bellenuite's estimated value at the time, Nathan believed that using that money to acquire one percent of Bellenuite's original shares would be sufficient.After all, Bellenui
"Ms. Myers is certainly special. Those with PhDs are simply different from the rest of us.""I've heard that old shoes are more comfortable than new ones. Don't you think so, Ms. Myers?Marilyn was confused by the statement, so she looked at her feet and said, "I just bought these new shoes. They're quite comfortable!"Everyone laughed aloud when they heard that.Naturally, they were not discussing shoes but comparing Chad to old, worn shoes to mock Marilyn.However, Marilyn was just a research student before that. She was not well-versed in those societal interactions.Bob merely watched from the sidelines, recalling how Chad had blackmailed him on Temple Road.He knew Chad was not as innocent as he appeared.He could not offend Chad or Matilda, so he pretended not to notice anything as he slipped into the banquet hall.However, Jojo realized that Marilyn was naive in those situations and knew nothing.Marilyn was still useful to Jojo.She wanted to use Marilyn to bait Trav
Everyone looked at each other, unaware that there were three reasons to celebrate.Jojo smiled as she watched everyone's expressions. She said, "The first is that Bellenutie and Lumigen have officially begun our cooperation today. The two parties will collaborate on Temple Road's real estate development as our first project. This project is supported by Bloomington City Hall, and Lumigen and Bellenuite are in charge of operations; the total investment exceeds 700 million dollars!"Everyone applauded. That was definitely a massive project.In terms of investment, it was almost equal to Bellenuite's overall market value.Jojo then revealed the second reason. "The second is that Bellenuite Group has successfully obtained 51 percent of Paladin Private Hospital's shares, becoming the majority shareholder. Furthermore, Bellenuite promises to invest 140 million in Europe's Guild of Eternal Life over the next three years."The applause began again but quickly stopped because everyone was
When he mentioned Matilda, Calvin's face flushed with regret, and his voice became stern. "We've received word that Ms. Sachs, the company's founder, has been accused of embezzling company assets, concealing taxable income, and posing significant risks to the company. The board has decided to remove Ms. Sachs from her positions as Chairman of the Board, President of the Group, and legal representative. And we will hand her over to the relevant authorities!"As he said that, Liam led the police past Chad and Stanley.The police handcuffed Matilda while Liam solemnly read the arrest warrant."Ms. Matilda Sachs, you're being arrested for violating company operating regulations, misappropriating company funds, and concealing taxable income. You're under arrest! Take her away!"Matilda's body appeared to lose all of its strength at that moment.She had no idea what was happening. She had always followed the rules and had never done anything like that.At the time, Matilda was still pl
At the time, Joe was hanging out with a group of tough-looking men in Bloomington's largest slum.After receiving a message from Jojo, Joe turned to the fierce-looking fatty beside him and said, "It's time!"Darkin, the fatty, was the most notorious thug in Bloomington's underground world.He frequently worked as an enforcer for wealthy individuals. As long as there was enough money, he would do anything.Darkin looked at his henchmen and repeated Joe's request. "Are you sure you want us to burn down the whole Temple Road?"Joe smiled and said, "Of course. The cleaner, the better. If you could kill a few people with the fire, that would be even better. Make sure it causes a scene!"Darkin smiled and pointed to the western side of Temple Road, saying, "This is the highest point on Temple Road, and there is an entrance to the sewer. My plan is..."After listening to Darkin, Joe snapped his fingers at the bodyguard behind him.The bodyguard brought over a briefcase, which Joe took
"We have a problem that needs to be solved now. Matilda still has 20 percent of Bellenuite's shares. How do we get them?"Calvin did not want to be too hard on Matilda, so he said, "That's simple. We accelerate Bellenuite's listing and issue additional shares to dilute Matilda's position. Even if Matilda doesn't go to jail, she will not be able to sell her shares. She will only be able to watch as we dilute her holdings."However, Jojo disagreed with that approach and said, "I want to ensure Matilda goes to prison. I never want her to see the light of day again!"Calvin said nonchalantly, "You can do whatever you want. Matilda is already out of the picture anyway."He gestured to Stanley and stood up to leave.Jojo said, "Oh, by the way, about the demolition of Temple Road—"Calvin stopped and did not even turn his head as he said, "Do as you wish. Firemind Capital and Lumigen want the whole of Temple Road."Jojo watched them leave. Then, she immediately called the Sachs family.
"How does this relate to your ex-husband? I heard he never gets involved in company affairs," Liam said, flipping through the documents in his hands.However, Matilda was adamant. "It has to be him. Otherwise, why would he agree to divorce without receiving a single penny?"If Liam had not known about Chad's background, he might have believed her.However, Liam knew that Chad would not resort to such behavior.So, Liam said, "I advise you to tell the truth and not attempt to frame someone innocent. I will give you a couple of hours to think it over. I hope you will tell the truth the next time I see you."However, Matilda struggled and yelled hoarsely. Her eyes were bloodshot as she repeated the same sentence. "I'm telling the truth. This is all because of Chad. He must have done it!"Sonya witnessed all of that and felt sorry for Chad.She could not understand why Chad told her to get Matilda out.After leaving the interrogation room, Liam noticed Sonya and asked, surprised, "
When Sonya saw Chad, she said, "You did what you could. However, she still thinks you're framing her—"Before she could finish her sentence, Matilda angrily interrupted her. "Is that not true? He has been opposing me the entire time. Just as Bellenuite and Lumigen's collaboration was about to take off, he had me imprisoned and my reputation ruined!"Marilyn went to Matilda to help her up. She defended Chad, saying, "Matilda, Chad is not the person you believe him to be. He was not the one who framed you!"Chad unexpectedly said, "She will know the truth eventually. Nonetheless, thank you for the assistance, Ms. Walt."Just then, alarms rang in the police station, and an officer rushed in, panicked, shouting, "This is bad. There's a fire on Temple Road, and it's spreading rapidly. Be prepared to mobilize."The next moment, the entire station was crowded with police cars rushing out of the compound. Liam, wearing a grim expression, prepared to leave. When he passed by Chad, he said,
