The fabrics used for clothing were highly flammable. When the spark in the factory was noticed, a motor on the production line had already short-circuited, causing a fire. Even though it was the weekend, Opulent Prowl operated on a rotating rest schedule. Despite the industry's low wages and overtime pay, there were still over hundreds of workers on duty. As the factory turned into a fire scene, Celeste, who was accustomed to facing life's challenges, also panicked. "What's going on?" Celeste rushed out of her car and grabbed a fleeing worker to ask."The firefighters arrived earlier, and they're currently extinguishing the fire," the worker replied. Celeste walked inside and saw a firefighter holding a loudspeaker, directing the workers to wet their jacket with the hose, bend over, cover their mouths and noses, and escape. The other firefighters were tackling the blaze with various tools.Standing outside the billowing smoke, Celeste couldn't see clearly inside, but she

"Already here?" Celeste asked casually as she glanced up from the documents in the office. Her face remained impassive, but her tone was surprisingly gentle. Yet, at the sight of Celeste's demeanor, the worker, Allen Goode felt his leg weak, as if he should kneel before her.Liam, who was standing nearby, let out a subtle chuckle. Despite sharing the same demeanor, Celeste was even more intimidating than Damon."Ms. York, I won't ever do it again. Please spare me this time!" Allen plopped down on the ground with a thud.Just a few days ago, 500 thousand of unknown origin had been deposited into Allen's wife's account. Since Allen was in charge of maintaining the factory's circuit, when Liam's crew showed up at his doorstep, he immediately understood the situation. Allen took the money and didn't run. Now, he fell for Celeste's bluff, making him looked foolish and cowardly. It seemed that Shannon and Titus weren't very good judges of character. Celeste furrowed her brows

"Don't think I'm clueless about what you've done for me." Celeste glanced at Damon.Even though Damon wasn't in Taverdale last week, he was aware of everything.Whenever Celeste needed something, Liam acted immediately.If she needed armed forces, they were readily available. If she needed goods, arrangements were promptly made for a fictitious 200 million worth of goods.What was more, her purpose in all of this was simply to use the opportunity to intimidate Titus and Shannon. However, Damon felt that since he and Celeste were already involved, they might as well make a big splash and get the media involved.He had fully trusted her, never questioning her actions or interfering with them. Instead, he silently supported her, providing whatever she needed.Having someone like Damon backing her up gave Celeste an extraordinary sense of confidence.She was suddenly touched, feeling a bit emotional."You're supporting me like this, aren't you afraid it might blow up?" Celeste as

As expected, Chester paused for a moment."I had a feeling, you're into Meg. So, you're getting close to our Schultz family because of her, huh?" Chester, being experienced, had sensed that Winster's gaze toward Megan wasn't quite right. But, George and Miranda were clueless, making random matches, which Chester found frustrating."Yes, Grandpa." Winston nodded, appearing indifferent, but his mind was racing.Chester might be the first elder in the Schultz family to find out, and Winston needed to gain his approval. Chester frowned in disdain. "You're only seven years younger than my youngest son. How can you bring yourself to call me Grandpa?"Winston smiled awkwardly and said, "Even if I'm just seven years younger than your son, since you're Meg's grandpa, you're like a grandpa to me too.""I knew it. You and Meg are definitely up to something. Buttering me up won't help. We'll have to see what Meg's parents think." Chester sighed."How would you figure it out, Grandpa?"

"Meg is the kind who would rather suffer herself than see her elders down. No wonder she's been wearing long-sleeved shirts since she came back this year," Chester sighed, his eyes welling up."When she graduated from high school and Celeste went abroad for studies, she wanted to go too. "But back then, I wasn't in good health and had surgery. Everyone in the family was afraid I might not make it... You know, Meg received an offer from a foreign university, but she lied to us, claiming she didn't pass the exam and chose not to pursue it."Indeed, this was Megan's personality. Despite her trendy appearance with the club, she was deeply traditional in her values. Sacrificing her future for the sake of her family was something she could do.Winston secretly rejoiced that he had spun a lie that fit Megan's character so perfectly."Jenny always thinks I'm biased toward Meg. But that's not true. Jenny is too rational, too aware of what she wants, and she's good at protecting herself.

What was wrong? Chester agreed to what?Megan looked at Chester in confusion. "What are you talking about, Grandpa?"She would never have thought that in just half a day, Chester had been swayed to support Winston. Even more unimaginable was that someone like Winston could distort the truth and stop at nothing.Chester sighed deeply as he saw Megan acting clueless. "It's all Grandpa's fault, and your parents' fault for being too strict with you. "Meg, you've grown up now, you have your own thoughts and choices. Grandpa fully supports you. "Grandpa's strict discipline was to ensure your well-being, not make you sacrifice yourself to ease our minds."What was happening? Megan was completely confused. What was wrong with Chester?"Grandpa, what's going on? Why don't you just tell me directly?" Megan couldn't understand a word Chester was saying.Upon seeing that she remained unmoved, Chester stood up and moved to sit opposite her, reaching out to grab Megan's arm.Megan went

At that moment, Winston was still at the Primax Group's office building handling work. Meanwhile, Megan went directly to Primax.As soon as she arrived at the front desk and before she could speak, a girl in a suit skirt crossed the front desk and greeted her with a smile. "You must be Ms. Schultz. I'm Mr. Belasco's secretary, Eva Hanks. Mr. Belasco is waiting for you in his office. Please follow me." Megan nodded and followed Eva directly to the Chairman's office on the top floor.At that moment, Winston was engrossed in a document. Upon seeing Megan enter, his demeanor softened slightly. "Have a seat on the sofa and wait for me. Help yourself to the tablet." He deftly pulled out an iPad from under the desk and handed it to Megan, then instructed Eva to bring some snacks and a hot cup of milk.Megan frowned. "Do you think I'm a child?"His actions seemed like those dad who had to bring his child to work and gave her a tablet to play with so she wouldn't disturb him, along

"Let go!" Megan said fiercely as she pushed him away, her eyes instantly turned red."Winston, are you proud of yourself? Despite your age, you've enchanted a silly girl 20 years younger than you. Am I just someone you summon and dismiss at will?" Megan rolled up her sleeves, revealling the colorful conch tattoo on her arm."How could you bring this up with my grandpa? He's so old. How would he feel seeing me being so foolish, being so desperate for a man?" Megan's emotions, just calmed down, flared up again. Tears streamed down her face unexpectedly, tugging at Winston's heartstrings."Meg, you know that's not what I meant!" he hurriedly explained.Over the years, Winston had become accustomed to focus on getting results in social interactions. He knew that to get the approval of the Schultz family elders, he needed to evoke their sympathy for Megan. However, he overlooked one crucial thing—Megan couldn't bear to see Chester upset.Upon seeing Megan crying, Winston felt compl
