Nicholas stared straight at Yale. He said nothing for a while.“I’ll handle grandpa’s suspicion,” said Yale while looking at him. “Nicholas, all you need to do is to kill the people for me. Let me handle the rest!”Nicholas was sure that he also wanted him to kill the old man, judging by his sneering tone.Yale got Marcus to leave. Subsequently, he took out a land plan and circled the best location in the center of Centrolis.“This place is crowded. It’s considered the golden area.” He chuckled. “After the deal is completed, I’ll talk to the relevant departments, and this piece of land will be yours! What do you think?”Nicholas pursed his lips but said nothing.Yale patted his shoulder. “Nicholas, you’re ambitious, brutal, and merciless. I like that about you!“This is beneficial to you and me, so please think about it carefully!”Nicholas looked at the land plan Yale’s finger pointed. The surface was huge, and the appreciation potential was great. It was too humble to be call

Nicholas had never thought that a man with such high social status like Zephyr would have such an ordinary side to him.One of the account entries was probably wrong, as Cordelia talked to Zephyr with a stern expression. The latter, more than six feet in height, hung his head like an elementary school kid who had done something wrong.The scene astonished Nicholas.Zephyr was just a homey husband when he was with Cordelia. He was scared of his wife, would get nagged by his wife, and had to give her the money he earned—like millions of men in the world, he did not have much say in the household.He did not long for the spot which tens of thousands looked up upon him in the past, but he was happy with days that he had to bow down to his wife.Shocked, Nicholas tightened his fists. He went closer. The cafe’s door was opened, and the husband and wife’s conversation could be heard clearly.“Darling, just listen to me. The price should be adjusted lower!”“But we’re selling good stuff

Nicholas chuckled and wore a look of innocence.“Isn’t this a cafe? What else could I do here?”Zephyr watched him carefully, not missing even a subtle expression. The man was not as aggressive as he was the last time, but a conclusion could not be easily made if he was here with a kind or malicious intention.Zephyr went back to sling an arm around Cordelia’s shoulder, softly asking her to go home first and telling her he would take care of this.Cordelia was quite worried but could only walk out slowly upon his insistence. After Cordelia left, Zephyr looked at Nicholas with a ghost of a smirk.“Afternoon tea set, right? I’ll prepare it for you!”“Can you do it?”“Why not? I’m the boss here.”Zephyr returned to the back of the counter. His movements were practiced, but the pots and pans made a lot of noise. It made Nicholas wonder whether he really did need to make so much ruckus or whether he was trying to drive him away with it.A while later, a rather exquisitely plated

What was strange was that Marcus seemed to have vanished into thin air. Robert came to Jangasas to secretly deliver the news to him. “Sir, our people have basically flipped Centrolis over, but Marcus can’t be found anywhere.”Zephyr’s expression was icy cold. How could a living person be gone out of the blue!? Now that he was nowhere to be found, Zephyr had already thought of the worst.“Continue searching in Centrolis!” He gnashed his teeth. “I suspect that Uncle Matthew’s already found him first. They’ll definitely find someone to ambush me if they want to do something!”“Sir…” Robert widened his eyes, looking nervous.“Don’t worry about me,” Zephyr instructed, “Cordelia, though… Get a few reliable men to watch her going to and leaving work. Her safety is your top priority!”“Got it!”Zephyr felt chills down his spine all of a sudden after saying that.Whether it was Matthew, Yale, or other Hamertons considering conspiring, he had never been scared, even if there was a direct

Zephyr looked at the reviews on his phone with a dark gaze.A new shop would barely attract this much attention. The only possibility was like what Cordelia had said—someone was cooking something up behind them.These reviews were obviously left intentionally by paid posters.Zephyr suspected Nicholas too, but he denied the thought as soon as it popped up. Given Nicholas’ character and status, he would not resort to such a cheap and roundabout approach.Moreover, the tactic looked like a petty fight among women. If Nicholas did want to target him, he could easily declare war.It also did not look like what a business rival would do. There were many cafes around the area, but they all had their distinct colors and niched target customers. Everyone was basically fine with each other.Therefore, the person who had hired the paid posters to target them was highly likely to be targeting Cordelia…The answer grew clearer to Zephyr, but he took all the responsibilities on himself with

Cordelia was in distress, but Zephyr quite liked the situation. He did not have it in him to brew coffee and serve customers. He just wanted to stay around her every day—even better if the two of them were the only ones in the shop.In spite of it, he had still asked Fredric to look into the matter to cheer up Cordelia. The result was as he had expected. “Z, I consulted a few media companies, and they quickly got the date. Data shows that these paid posters are from the Jenner Group.”“Hah, so it’s really Yelena?”“Well, the account paying the paid posters is the finance account from the Jenner Group.”Who else from the Jenners, aside from Yelena, would do something so stupid?Zephyr pinched between his brows and ended the call.He was in too much disdain to fight the Jenners, not that the latter could overpower him. It was just that he cared about Cordelia.Fredric said with a lowered voice, “Z, it’s not hard to mess with the Jenners at all. Just do to them what they did to you

“I’m closing early today.” Cordelia wore a blank face. “Please head out. I don’t have what you need here!”Their coworkers looked awkward as they shifted their gazes to Yelena.Yelena snickered and crossed her arms, gesturing for them to sit tight. “Sis, closing this early isn’t beneficial to your rent, is it?”“Rent?” Cordelia arched her brow. “My husband is paying the rent and running the store. My husband says that starting up this cafe is just so I’m happy, so I can close whenever I’m happy. I don’t have to worry about money!“Besides…” She wiped the counter down as she looked at her and said, “This is a place for coffee and desserts, not for you to gossip!”“It’s already an issue maintaining your business, so why are you acting so arrogantly!?” Yelena felt embarrassed for not being able to dominate Cordelia in front of their coworkers.“Fine, we can leave! But you must know that your cafe will close sooner or later with so many bad reviews on the Internet!”“What does closi

“Step on the line again, and I’ll show you ways to die!”“You…”“Get out!” growled Cordelia.Yelena looked at her, dazed and afraid. Her gaze was still hostile, but she didn't dare to make a fuss anymore.Linda, who came in at this time, caught what happened. Just looking at the mess on the floor was good enough an indicator of what had happened.Startled, she was worried that Cordelia would be at a disadvantage and darted over to shove Yelena away immediately. Yelena stumbled from the push and slammed herself against the corner of the table, breaking out in a cold sweat from the pain.“Linda Quimby, are you crazy!?” Yelena was hysterical. “How dare you shove me!?”“Yeah, so?” Linda defended Cordelia. “You’re here with these people to find fault with Cordelia, aren’t you?”“Hah, I’m here to bring her business!” Yelena rolled her eyes at her. “Ungrateful brats… You and Cordelia are the same, blind b*tches!”Linda found it too much of an effort to argue with her and went up to
