There were eight team members in the junior league, including Max.Liam had been their mid, and Austin was the reserve.It was Liam’s forte to counter-attack and farm at the same time. They had been working well together before, and Carlton and Simon had been able to conduct their attacks without a hitch at bot.After all, it was more beneficial to have an additional mid during attacks.They would be able to dominate the bot lane after a few catches with better equipment and more gold than their opponent.However, Liam was gone now, and their rapport had faltered since Austin took his place.Austin was always focusing on farming his mage and did not really take other lanes into account. He would report a miss signal at most once he discovered someone vanishing from the other team, and this frustrated Carlton.“What’s the point of using a mage when your team members are caught? Can you fight three opponents on your own?”Austin blew up after hearing what Carlton said.“Why are
Felix felt nervous when he saw which champion Max had picked.Even though the mid lane mage was not powerful enough in the beginning for captures and farming, the champion was considered a stable factor in a victory game. However, using an assassin with burst damage was considered more difficult to target a win.If they were not able to get a landslide advantage from the start, and the equipment and gold the assassin had were not enough, they could easily be defeated by their opponents.Liam had used Fizz to capture and farm continuously. He was considered the second jungler. Could Max do the same?Felix and the others remained silent as the game had started. They did not want to disrupt Max.It would only stress Max out if they discussed the game openly.The jungler was in charge of catching the opponent during the game’s third minute. Max calmly operated his champion with precision as he attacked two opponents at a time and killed the opponent’s mid.By the time the jungler ru
Hunter knocked anxiously on Elena's office door and said urgently to her, “Aunt Elena, Eugene Lane is here again. Finn led him straight to Uncle Nathan.”“What?”Elena quickly stood up. “How dare Nathan let him into the office?! What an embarrassment for Nathan to insist on signing a contract with him!”She grabbed her documents and ran out without hesitation.Hunter was delighted. He followed behind her slowly.All that was left was for him to enjoy a good show.Finn had already prepared the contract while Nathan was inside the office.He placed a copy each in front of Nathan and Eugene.“Please proceed with signing this.”Nathan smiled at Eugene and said, “Here’s to a happy partnership.”“Of course. This project will succeed with your help, Mr. Langley.”Eugene lifted up his pen and was about to sign when Nathan’s office door was pushed open violently.Elena walked in with her high heels furiously.“Are you really signing a contract with a scrappy company like his?”She
Eva frowned when she saw the cold expression on Nathan’s face.“What’s wrong?” “Nothing. Let’s eat.” He put a piece of rib onto Eva’s plate and gave one rib each to the children too.The family of four continued having their dinner.Eva brought Mia to Elite Kindergarten early the next morning while Nathan brought Max to the club.Felix and Carlton were already waiting outside the door. They quickly approached Max when they saw him get out of the car.Carlton held Max’s hand.“Let’s go train, Max. Mr. Hopper has arranged for us to use the latest equipment today, but we have to get it customized to our heights. How about coming with me to try it out first?” Max followed him obediently while nodding gently. He turned back to look at Nathan and said goodbye.“Remember to pick me up later, Daddy.”“Okay.”Nathan nodded. It was only after Max had left that he turned to look at Felix.“What do you need, Mr. Langley?”“When Max is here, what does he eat?”Felix immediately
Elena looked quite furious after the results of the vote were announced.The shareholders did not approve of her project and supported Nathan instead.Had his power grown to such an extent?She turned to look at Nathan, who was standing where he was with a stoic expression. She clenched her fingers.Elena had thought she would win this and had hinted at this to Nathan yesterday and this morning. Now, she had ended up in humiliation. This infuriated her.The shareholders’ meeting ended very soon after, and Nathan walked out of the meeting room with Finn.Everyone who attended the meeting left as well.Elena sat quietly on her seat throughout this and gripped her documents tightly. Her eyes were red and filled with rage.She could not let this go.“Aunt Elena.”Elena heard Hunter’s familiar voice. She shook her head to clear her mind. Hunter approached her with a hot cup of tea and placed it gently in front of her.The steam from the tea wafted in the air, filling her sight.
Eugene quickly found the Victorian-era moon flask.“Oh, my precious. I can finally use you.”He mumbled as he gently wiped the dust off the flask. He placed it on the table carefully.Eugene was planning to call Eva later and tell her the good news.With this investment, his company now had enough capital to continue developing the product and push it out into the market. This product would guarantee a huge return, and Eugene could not help chuckling foolishly at the moon flask.Queenie heard him chuckling. She quietly called Pamela over to see what Eugene was doing.Her father must be in contact with Eva again!…Meanwhile, Nathan had just stepped into the house when Eva came over to him. She stared at his face for quite a while and was relieved to see that he was not angry.“How did things go today?”“It ended well.”Eva was relieved to hear his familiar voice.After that, he told Eva what had happened in the meeting room.When she heard that part about him defending the
Why was Eugene suddenly giving Eva the Victorian-era moon flask?What did that slut do to deserve it?Pamela was more mature due to experience and did not lose her temper, but it was different with Queenie. She immediately went forward and grabbed the moon flask.“I don’t agree to this, Dad!”She said shrilly to Eugene, “Eva might not like this even if you give it to her. It'd just be a waste of your effort. Why not give it to me since she won’t appreciate your gesture?”Queenie had been eyeing this moon flask for a long time!Eugene had always said that it was of no use to her. All she could do with it was to place it in her bedroom after she got married. This was worth hundreds of thousands, and Eugene could not bear to part with it.However, he was giving it to that slut, Eva, with just a simple word.Was it all because that slut was now Nathan Langley’s wife?“Do you really think she’ll acknowledge you just because you keep fawning over her? Don’t forget how she treated yo
Queenie anxiously handed over her blood sample to the ob-gyn at Central Hospital.She relaxed only after the doctor took her blood sample away.“Do you need to be so anxious?”Flora pouted next to her. “You can just get a urine test for this. Why would you need to do an HCG blood test? Why do you need such a confirmation? Is Mason hoping you’d get pregnant?”“He must be. There are plenty of CEOs who love getting married after they get the woman pregnant. They want an heir first before marrying the woman.”Tonya patted Queenie teasingly on the shoulder. “Our Queenie is going to be a wife from an influential family. Don’t forget to take care of us once you’re married, Queenie.” They began talking about this excitedly, but Queenie could not take in a word.She broke out in a cold sweat while waiting for the doctor’s result.15 minutes later, her blood results came out. Queenie was pregnant.When she saw the words in her medical report, she pressed her hand against her chest and
