2025-01-15 18:03:47Jackson had his own little tricks. With such a grand entrance, it was easy for anyone to notice when Mr. Lee arrived. He could ask Uncle Will and Emma to inquire about where Mr. Lee went, and it wouldn’t be hard to find out which restaurant he was at.
If that didn’t work, he would just go find the old lady!
But before he could even make it inside, he saw Assistant Ken standing guard outside a copper drum hotpot restaurant. And the table by the window was none other than Chris!
Jackson was stunned. He had been eating at this copper drum hotpot since he was a child, and the place was small and run-down. How could someone like Mr. Lee, such a big shot, be eating here?
In reality, it was Amelia who chose the place.
When Amelia did things, she prioritized convenience: "More meat, Elijah loves it."
Chris, with a smile that bordered on flattery, said, "Bring 20 plates of lamb!"

"Amelia!?" How could it be that girl?! Jackson stepped back in disbelief, nearly stumbling. If it weren’t for the bodyguards catching him, he might have collapsed right there. Mr. Lee, who had even canceled a business meeting just to see someone, was actually meeting with Amelia?! How could that be?! Jackson was dragged a meter away and slowly regained his composure, but by then, it was too late to rush back inside and see clearly. He couldn’t be mistaken—it was definitely Amelia! And she was sitting with the old lady, the same one who had picked up that little beggar all those years ago! But how could that girl have any connection to Mr. Lee? Jackson racked his brain, then suddenly had a flash of insight. "Live stream!" he murmured to himself. "I remember Mary said the old lady was doing live streaming with that girl!"

The elderly neighbors in the alley, just finishing their morning exercise, saw Amelia standing in front of the medical clinic, fiddling with something."Amelia, what are you up to?" someone asked, looking up at her.Amelia yawned, still looking like she hadn’t fully woken up, exuding a lazy and beautiful charm. "Streaming.""Streaming?" The neighbors were surprised! Although live streaming had become quite common these days, they typically saw it on apps like TikTok and often watched from their phones, but in real life, they had never been exposed to it. Now, they all gathered around, curious to see how she was going to do it.Amelia didn’t hide anything and chose the most popular video platform, one that was actively supporting new streamers. The platform had policies to promote new accounts, so even if she was a beginner, as long as she started streaming at a specific time, she would get a small three-minute recommendation boos

Mrs. LuLu, playing the mediator, interjected, “Look at this new fund I bought—hasn’t shown any increase. Wasn’t Wilson Group supposed to invest in the medical field? Why haven’t we heard anything? This Mr. Lee is probably just pulling a smokescreen.”“Have you met Mr. Lee?” Mary straightened up immediately, not forgetting her main purpose for being here. “Did he say anything?”Mrs. Ernst laughed. “Do you think we can just meet him anytime we want? Even Old Ye can’t meet him so easily.”Mary sneered. “Our family has already been working with Wilson Group. Mr. Lee’s assistant, Ken, has been a friend of my husband for years. It shouldn’t be hard to meet him.”Mrs. Ernst didn’t bother responding to her, dismissing her words as mere boasting.Mary was about to say more when Mrs. LuLu, still looking at her phone, suddenly exclaimed, “Harmony

Even if she hadn’t lent the money, this live stream should be hers!With that thought in mind, Mary stood up, deciding she couldn’t stay at the massage session any longer.At that exact moment, Jackson called her, urging her to come home quickly. He was still living in a dream, happily recounting what had happened today.Mary ground her teeth, her heart filled with resentment. “I should’ve slashed her face when she left!”Jackson furrowed his brow. “I told you, I just want you to spend more time with the old lady. If she’s happy, she’ll surely have that girl speak well of us.”“She's so easy, even flirting with old men in her livestream,” Mary sneered. “No wonder she’s getting so many donations. It must be from Mr. Lee.”Now it made sense. Otherwise, she would have truly thought that girl had some kind of amazing skill, relying on her medical knowledge to mak

“Of course, I didn’t say anything!” The middle-aged woman stood on the hillside, looking around cautiously. Her voice now carried a sense of wariness. “Didn’t you tell us before you left, not to share any information about you two with anyone?”Mia squinted her eyes. “What if they offer money to make you speak?”“We took their money.” The middle-aged woman smirked strangely. “But we gave them false information. Anyway, there’s someone else paying, and they don’t want anyone to find her.”Only then did Mia completely relax with a sigh of relief. “Mom, you did the right thing.”The middle-aged woman wasn’t just anyone—she was Grace, the woman who had swapped the babies all those years ago.It had been so long since Grace had heard “Mom” from Mia that tears started welling up in her eyes. “Mia, your dad and I have been doing wh

Jackson instinctively glanced behind Amelia, wondering why Mr. Lee wasn’t there.Amelia smiled nonchalantly. "Looking for someone?"Jackson feigned a hypocritical smile. "Amelia, there’s been a misunderstanding between us.""What misunderstanding?" Amelia's lips curled slightly. "Is it the misunderstanding where you almost killed me, or the one where you wanted me to go back to the countryside?"The onlookers started murmuring, shocked by their behavior. "Is this how parents treat their children?"Mary could no longer tolerate the gossip from the neighborhood women and exploded. "She’s not even our biological daughter! What else do you want from us? Should we just pamper her? She's like a sticky plaster that can’t be shaken off!"When Jackson saw how she was acting, he realized things were going south and quickly pulled her back."Don’t say anything more," Jackson said, warning her with a look. "Don&rsquo

Amelia had put real force into that kick.Jackson lay curled up on the ground, his mouth full of blood.Mary, terrified, didn’t dare say a word. Her face turned pale.Amelia’s eyes glinted with hostility as she bent down and yanked him up. Her voice was low, but her tone was cold. “I never wanted to lay a hand on anyone in front of Grandma, but someone like you really deserves a beating.”Jackson shrank back, looking toward Victoria. “Mom, do something! Mom!”“Now you call me ‘Mom’?” Amelia’s eyes turned crimson as she lifted his face. “When you kicked Grandma out, why didn’t you remember I was your mother?”*Boom!*Amelia kicked him again, her aura so fierce that it frightened everyone in the alley.She had been suppressing herself for too long, always pretending to be something she wasn’t.She was never a good person, and now, tha

If she wanted to ruin someone online, Mary had plenty of ways to do it!Carl slowly glanced at James, then turned his attention back to the scene.As the top bodyguard, James immediately understood that Mr. Jenkins wanted him to follow Mary.But Amelia subtly blocked his way, smiling gently. "Grandma said to let them go."James hesitated and raised his head.“Listen to her,” Carl’s voice was calm, as if this was the most normal thing in the world.Smith was absolutely shocked. When had Mr. Jenkins ever listened to someone else’s words?Who was this young lady? What was her background?!Amelia, biting a fruit candy, her long black hair flowing, casually responded, “We should give people a chance to change their ways. I’m quite magnanimous.”“Oh?” Carl raised an eyebrow, his fingers twirling the beads on his wrist, clearly skeptical of her statement.

In the past, Zane might have played along with this act, but now he was drowning in his own troubles and had no time to worry about Abby’s feigned frailty."I should never have listened to you!"With that, Zane stormed out of the hospital.The moment he left, Abby grabbed her phone and opened the web. The news of the situation flipping against them was everywhere.Even in the group chat, the topic dominated, and almost everyone had tagged her."Abby, that Taoist was Master Cloudwalker! Why didn’t you tell us earlier?""Master Cloudwalker is incredibly difficult to meet. My grandfather went to Dragon Lake Mountain multiple times and never even got to see him. He still has to show him the utmost respect.""I can’t believe Master Cloudwalker was at your family’s hotel. If I had known, I would’ve booked a stay too!""Abby, my dad wants to know—can you get in touch with Master Cloudwalker? Money isn’t an issue."Suddenly, the tone of the group had changed completely.Rowan remained silent.

"Enough!" Zane was utterly enraged, his temper flaring beyond control. "Are you trying to lose your job? Find a solution right now! Minimize the damage!"Minimize the damage? How could that even be possible?The public statement was still there, blatantly displayed for all to see. Even if the PR department wanted to delete it, netizens had already taken screenshots and spread them everywhere.Mr.Cromwell’s words about disowning his son weren’t just empty threats—they were real.Secretary Frank didn't want to hurt Zane too much, so he had kept some matters vague. But that didn’t mean Mr.Cromwell didn’t understand.He wasn’t senile enough to be deceived. His own son had tried to reclaim control of the hotel by shamelessly exposing his own daughter to the public. This made Mr.Cromwell utterly disappointed.Secretary Frank knew he was upset and asked, "Mr. Cromwell, the PR department wants to know if the corporation should intervene and seek help from mainstream media?""No need.

This was like throwing a stone into a still pond—waves rippled instantly!Netizens were stunned.“What?! The head of Dragon Lake Mountain? A real Taoist?!”“Let me explain—Master Cloudwalker is the last remaining guardian of the sect. He’s an expert in the Art of Divination and the Five Elements.”“Damn! I know this guy! He’s on Wikipedia! A national-level expert in astronomy and geography?”“Here’s another fact—Master Cloudwalker never casually performs divinations, nor does he work for any aristocratic families. He only recently came down the mountain for a Taoist conference.”“So… Q Hotel really does have a fortune-enhancing effect?!”No one had expected such a dramatic twist.For Dragon Lake Mountain to personally step in and clarify meant there was no fraud involved.Q Corporation’s subsidiary account was now in utter chaos.“I just have one question—The new manager never said anything, so why did this Cromwell guy feel the need to apologize on her behalf?”“Can’t you see?

Rowan understood the message—he needed to handle things privately.Amelia glanced at the chat history but had no intention of exposing Rowan. “You still hang out with them. It wouldn’t be good for you to speak up for me. Put your phone away.”Saying that, she tossed the phone back to him.Rowan, however, wanted to show his allegiance. “I was ignorant before, thinking that being in their circle made me important. But now I see things differently. Gossiping and ostracizing people isn’t right. Amelia, I’m not siding with you just because you’re powerful. After today, I’ve genuinely realized a lot.”He had lost his mother at a young age and always craved companionship. He enjoyed being surrounded by people, the liveliness of it.That was why he never lacked friends—even if he didn’t like doing certain things, he’d go along with them for the sake of his ‘brothers.’But real brothers wouldn’t hold him back, and they certainly wouldn’t push him out to take the fall.They thought having money

"That's not entirely true. Sebastian’s stage presence is insane. If you take a photo or video with him, it’ll go viral instantly.""The the Cromwell family is already trending. Isn’t he only loyal to his biological sister? He never acknowledges Abby. Just wait, sooner or later, he’ll be dragged down by that village girl too."Seeing this, Abby responded at the perfect moment:"Amanda, it's normal that Sixth Brother doesn’t recognize me. I’m just the Cromwell family’s sponsored student, after all.""What do you mean just a sponsored student? Aunt Ruby almost lost her mind back then. If it weren’t for you, the Cromwell family would’ve been a mess. Now this village girl waltzes in, and suddenly, they want to pretend you don’t exist? Meanwhile, she’s ruining the hotel’s reputation.""Amanda, my father has always treated me well. He’s trying to fix things now. Let’s not talk about my sister anymore."Amanda Fisher, Rowan’s cousin, had grown up with Abby. They were schoolmates from differen

"Let's handle the situation first. Get the press release ready."After saying this, Zane hung up the phone.Inside the hospital room, Abby gazed out at the corridor, her eyes filled with malice. Seeing a nurse enter, she quickly lay back down and opened her phone.Even though Barret and Rowan were no longer active in the circle, making things less lively than before, news of the hotel trending online had still been shared in the group chat. Someone tagged her:"Abby, isn't this your family's hotel?""Why would they use such a marketing tactic? If I hadn’t stayed there before, I might have believed it!""Who's the new person in charge? Tell Uncle Cromwell to fire them—this is humiliating."A smile tugged at the corners of Abby's lips, but she quickly masked it with a seemingly concerned response:"Don't say that. My sister just returned and doesn’t understand the market yet. Making small mistakes is normal."The group chat immediately became more active."Your sister? The one the Cromw

Abby, ever understanding, said, “Sister only wanted the hotel to do better, which is why she came up with such a drastic plan. Dad, don’t blame her.” “She’s been put in charge of the hotel as soon as she came back. The old man is too impatient,” Zane said helplessly, shaking his head. “As her father, I won’t hold it against her, but there are many other shareholders in the hotel. If this situation keeps escalating, I’m really worried something will go wrong. Even though Cromwell’s investment is the largest, we still can’t ignore the voices of the shareholders.” As he spoke, his phone rang again. “See? It’s another call from someone who wants me to go back and take over the hotel.” Abby glanced at her father and said, “Dad, we can handle everything else, but public opinion has a time sensitivity. If we don’t address it now, it’ll only escalate, and by then, it will be much harder to calm down.” Zane knew this well. “I’m just worried about Amelia taking responsibility. She’ll probab

Master Cloudwalker had never easily left his mountain before, mainly because the internet was so developed now, it was too easy to expose oneself. As for the sudden surge of attention, the Cromwell family’s PR department was completely baffled.What kind of unexpected fortune was this? They hadn't done anything, and yet they'd ended up trending online.To make things worse, the hotel alone had three spots in the trending topics. One of them was particularly explosive: **[Breaking News! I really won the lottery! The master’s words are true! Everyone, come stay at the hotel!](#)** Before this, the hotel’s rating had dropped to 4.3 stars.What’s worse, many people, especially those in business, had stopped choosing this long-established five-star hotel for meetings.There were even comments mentioning that the hotel’s staff was sarcastic and that guests often felt ill during their stay. Some said they had stayed at this hotel and started experiencing a streak of bad luck afterward,

The Zen master’s eyes lit up. “Quick! Take me to him!”This young master must be the one he wanted to take as an apprentice!But…“Wait, it’s you?”In the hotel suite, the Zen master stared at Carl’s strikingly handsome face, utterly speechless. “Why aren’t you at the Jenkins family’s estate? What are you doing here at a hotel?”Amelia watched the scene with amusement.As expected, the gossip about the Jenkins family was mostly true.For example, the Jenkins family’s young master, who had such a precious life that even masters from Dragon Lake Mountain envied him.Carl coughed lightly, maintaining his refined posture and politeness. “Master Cloudwalker, long time no see. You’re as healthy as ever.”Master Cloudwalker scoffed and turned to Amelia. “Is this your young master? The one borrowing fortune from the Zen?”Amelia nodded.Master Cloudwalker chuckled twice. “He doesn’t need to borrow. He’s the Zen’s true son.”“Master.” Carl poured a cup of tea and handed it over. “You’ve misund
