“There are not enough chairs.” Madison spoke to Jason in annoyance, “Why are there so many people?”“I don’t know either!” Jason shrugged.“They obviously came for you.” She grunted.Jason threw his arms in the air. He knew that people would definitely come for him, but he had never expected that there would be this many people.“Stop flirting! Almost everyone’s here. We’re about to cut the ribbon. Moreover, I can’t handle everyone on my own.” Jane pouted her lips.Compared to Jason’s previous opening ceremony, there were much more new faces in the crowd. She did not know who they were, but they were obviously important people, judging by the aura they displayed.“Don’t just sit there. Let them have the seats!” Clark finally spoke up after Madison’s relatives was huddled in a corner.“Why? We are all here to celebrate.” Rainey was angry.She had been envious of Madison. She even felt satisfied when Madison was married to Jason. ‘So what if you’re prettier? You marry that useles

Jason allowed Madison to greet everyone while he went and took a seat in front of Silas. “Come over when we’re about to cut the ribbon.”Silas had been lonely as he sat in the corner. No martial artists had interacted with him, while the businessmen only courteously greeted him. None of them were familiar with Silas. Despite having the desire to appease him, those people felt like they had no qualifications.Silas only regained composure after Jason and sat down as he said, “That’s not proper!”He usually would not attend private occasions, especially not cutting the ribbon for any private company. He might have attended if it were events hosted by massive corporations. However, Madison’s company was obviously insufficient in level. If he had made a public appearance here, it would bring enormous attention to her company.“You’re not willing to. Nobody would even dare.” Jason spoke calmly.It was what Jane had told him just now. He also decided on it after pondering.“Now you’re

Madison took a deep breath to keep her cool while she looked at the face-reddened Rainey. “Is that what you think of this?” She asked calmly.Tears start to grow in her eyes. She had always worked hard to maintain the relationship between Jason and her family members. She was the one who begged Jason when Clark was in trouble. No matter what, she wishes to preserve this relationship; for them to use excuses like that only seems hypocritical. If they really wished for her best, they would treat Jason better. It’s hard for them to imagine how Madison felt, being caught between a rock and a hard place.Thinking of Jason’s hardships for the past three years and that she tried her best to mediate on both sides, she felt that her efforts were not worth it.“Did I say anything wrong? Didn’t you elevate your position?” Remy gritted her teeth stubbornly as she looked at the sobbing Madison.She would not dare to do this to Jason, yet she could not stand seeing Madison’s prideful expression.

“Is someone causing trouble? Do they not know whose event this is?” Elder Frost chuckled coldly as he had personally felt Jason’s terrifying strength.Moreover, despite being a large city, the social circle for upper-class people is tiny. Everyone knows everyone. He could never imagine someone would dare to cause trouble since nobody would have the qualifications to do that.“Ah, we have a pretty boy.” The man grinned as he looked at Jason.Jane slapped the man in annoyance and spoke exasperatedly, “You better take a good look at where you are at before saying another word.”‘Can he really not read the room?’The man was stunned after being slapped. Then, he was enraged. ‘This woman dares to hit me?’At this moment, he saw someone in the corner of his eye. “Eh, isn’t that Jordan Grand?”“Arden Springs, Abe Newerth, and… Silas Johnson.” He was stunned with disbelief, realizing all of them had made many television appearances.“What?” He muttered as he looked around. He wanted to

“That was what I heard him say!” Jason blinked.“They were lies.” Madison rolled her eyes at Jason in exasperation.“Everyone is different. You shouldn’t judge others by your standards. There are always people who have fewer principles in this world.” Jason spoke calmly.“I’m not bothered by it.” Madison laughed.As Jason and Madison spoke quietly, Jane and Zack also chatted.“Was I acting embarrassing just now?” Zach asked Jane.“What do you think?” Jane was exasperated.She felt that Zach was as dull as a rock who had never thought things through before acting. If she had not truly loved him, she would stomp on this man.“Were you busy working for this company for the past few days?” Zack asked.“Of course!” Jane was exasperated.“Then why didn’t you tell me earlier.” Zack rolled his eyes.“I already told you!” Jane yelled helplessly.“But you didn’t tell me about this?” Zack gestured to the surroundings. “I thought you simply did it out of impulse. My dear, how would I k

As Zack hurried back, Jane approached Jason. “This is a token of appreciation from my husband.” Jane smiled as she handed the envelope to Jason.Looking at Jason’s pleased expression, Jane was slightly embarrassed. “That guy might be as stubborn as a rock, but he treats me well.”“Alright, thank you.” Jason smiled as he took it.Then, Jane’s expression turned joyful. She knew that Jason had not taken the cash packet out of greed but to signify that Zack was considered a part of Jason’s social circle.It was by the mere thought of that possibility since everyone who belonged in Jason’s circle was influential.After Jason left, Jane lightly winked at Zack.Jason obviously knew what Jane had plotted. However, he did not mind helping them with the consideration of his wife. If Jane were helpful to Madison, he would naturally be kind to Jane as well.After the minor ordeal, the ceremony finally began.Madison went on the stage since the company belonged to her. As for Jason, he was

Madison responded perfectly to their insults which made them unable to use the arguments that they had painstakingly prepared. Hence, they were silent.“It was Hank Akers who came out with the idea.” Clark gritted his teeth.“He wanted to force Madison to give them money which they would split among themselves. They thought that since we were relatives, at most, we wouldn’t talk to her ever again at most. No matter what, you people can’t do much to us.” Clark had no desire to hide anything. Hence, he explained everything.Hearing Hank’s words, Jason’s expression froze. He then realized that was true since nobody else but Hank could come up with such an idea.He thought it was a perfect plan to abuse Madison’s kindness. They would even brazenly assume that he would not do anything to them since Madison mattered greatly to him.“Wow! Excellent.” Jason nodded lightly.“Did you know, whatever you do to me or plot against me, I wouldn’t mind out of consideration for Madison. However,

After the guests had dispersed, they returned to Madison’s company. Jane and Zack had also followed along, leaving the temporarily hired staff to clean the area.Zack’s face blushed as he drank quite a lot of wine. He lecherously called out to Jane.Zack initially thought he married a woman that burdens his family, as she only knew how to spend money. He could not imagine that she would find such a great opportunity after he was growing accustomed to her horrible spending habits. Without Jane, he would not be able to attend an occasion like this now.“Go, p*ss off.” As Jason glanced at the couple with a joyous expression, Jane finally lost composure and drove Zack away.“Aye aye!” Zack patted his clothes, half crouched, and yelled enthusiastically. Both women were driven into laughter, while Jason also felt amused.“Ah, the event is finally over. I am really tired.” Madison rubbed her shoulders and spoke in realization.“I'll give you a massage after we reach home.” Jason smiled.
