"We're here, Mr. Ingerton." An expensive car stopped in front of a junction. Harry peered at the narrow and ancient-looking alley, frowning. "You sure?"Why would Boss be here, of all places? There was a market nearby where elderly men and women were bargaining with the sellers. Harry had never been to a place like this since he entered the business industry. Reagan said, "This is Clearwater Alley. Or do you want to look for her in the hospital opposite this place?""A hospital? No, no." Harry pointed at the alley. "This will do as long as we're in the right place."The possibility of Boss working in a hospital was even lower, with how lazy she was and how averse she was to the stench of blood. While he spoke, Harry leaped out of the car and walked, followed by his group of bodyguards clad in black. Anyone not in the know would assume that he was a gangster, what with this casual lawlessness he was exhibiting. Although Harry had a smile on his face, he didn't look like a
"Why are you trying to deceive me?" Harry was the one who came inside. He let out a hearty laugh.Clayton was so scared that his hands shuddered, immediately ducking behind Aria.Aria lowered her gaze calmly. Her face was strikingly beautiful, and it was difficult to overlook her.Harry noticed her the moment he entered, though he didn't reckon she was the one he had been looking for. Then, he walked over with his bodyguards."Kid, is your parents home? I'm not feeling well, so I thought of visiting after seeing your livestream."Harry, being quite astute, quickly surmised that his boss intended to maintain her anonymity by lodging in such a modest place.However, Aria grinned devilishly after hearing that. "You're calling me a kid?"The delighted smile on Harry's face disappeared as he turned around. He found her voice and tone oddly familiar.Aria chewed on her gum while grinning. "Mr. Ingerton, you're quite forgetful. You can't even recognize me?"At that moment, Harry want
Reagan still couldn't believe it. His hands were shaking as he adjusted his glasses.If Marshall knew about Aria's identity, he would regret everything!Reagan finally understood why Bernard would assign Kent Corporation some projects. It was all because of Aria!Reagan took his glasses and spoke. "Ms. Ken—Boss…""It looks like you recognize who I am." Aria smiled.Reagan quickly replied, "I didn't know you were the one at the Kent Residence. If I did, I would have…"Aria fiddled at the coffee set. "I didn't want anyone to know, so what you did was right."Harry couldn't understand what they were saying. "The Kent Residence? What are you guys talking about?"Reagan lowered his eyes. "Mr. Ingerton, I'll explain to you later."Harry didn't care about that, only having one thing in mind. "Boss, let's return to Janovin now. Hahaha! I'm so happy. Once you return there, we can rule that place!""I can't go back now. You saw it for yourself. I just started my business." Aria smiled.
"I… I…" Harry didn't know what to say.In the end, Aria helped him out by explaining, "Grandma, the Lowe family introduced him over. He has been on Southbury's television show before."Georgina's attitude changed as she looked at Harry. "You've been on television before? You're considered our VIP customer, then. We'll give our all to serve you."Harry was fortunate to have been on television for two consecutive days."There's no need for that. I—"However, Aria interrupted him with a smile, "That's right. I'll treat him to a meal later.""Yes. You guys should dine out." People of Georgina's age only trusted what they saw on television. "Mr. Lowe Senior still keeps us in mind."Harry wondered who she was referring to.Aria glanced at him. "Mr. Lowe Senior has always been like that. He even supported me when I was streaming. That's why Mr. Ingerton noticed us. He originally wanted to invest in the Lowe family. We're merely a tag-along."Harry, who came specifically from Janovin,
Marshall was quite smart. Since Harry had made such a big scene when going inside, he would have caught a lot of attention.If he asked Sarah or Clayton about it, he would know which house Harry went to. In the worst-case scenario, Marshall could ask Georgina.However, before Marshall could head inside, he saw Reagan guarding outside a skewer restaurant.Harry was sitting at the table beside the window.Marshall was astonished. He had eaten at this small, run-down skewer place since he was young. Marshall wondered why someone like Harry would be eating there.In fact, Aria was the one who chose the place—simply because it was the nearest to her. "Let's order more meat. Sam likes to eat it."Harry's smile was ingratiating. "Bring us 20 plates of lamb!"Upon hearing that, Sam put up five fingers.Aria spoke indifferently. "50 plates."Harry immediately corrected himself, "50 plates!"After saying that, he looked toward Sam and sighed. "L is only so accommodating around you. I d
Marshall couldn't comprehend why it was Aria.Marshall nearly stumbled on his feet as he backed away in astonishment. He would have fallen if the bodyguard hadn't steadied him.Marshall couldn't fathom how Harry had canceled their business meeting to meet Aria.Only after being pulled three feet away did Marshall snap back to reality. It was impossible for him to rush back and get a closer look. Moreover, he wouldn't have been mistaken by what he saw. He was certain it was Aria. And next to Aria was the beggar Georgina had taken in. Marshall pondered how Aria had managed to meet Harry. After racking his brain, a thought finally popped into his head. Muttering to himself, he mumbled, "The live stream! Karen mentioned that Aria was teaching that old bat how to stream!"An idea sparked in Marshall's mind, prompting him to reach out to Aria. Yet, he discovered he had deleted her number.Marshall cursed himself in frustration. "I'll just reach out to the old bat then!"Dialing Georg
Sam felt excited and even stopped eating his lamb meat. He quickly typed four words on his phone, "Get rid of him!"Aria fiddled with her coffee cup. "We need to lay low and do it subtly. Don't attract any attention. Mr. Ingerton, I hope you can cooperate."Goosebumps formed on Harry's head when she called him so formally. "I… I'm not used to pretending."Aria smiled. "You need to. I'm only a medical streamer from today onward. Don't slip up."Harry nodded excitedly. "Boss, isn't this a piece of cake for us?"Aria lifted her head. "You can understand it that way. Reagan, you too. Keep your eyes focused and act naturally."Reagan replied politely, "Yes, Boss… I mean, Dr. Genius.""Okay. Let's talk about the company's direction. The number of people watching my stream has been steadily increasing. Thus, Grandma and I wouldn't be able to handle it alone in the future. "We need backend customer service, dedicated operations personnel, and charities to support agriculture and educa
Jenna attempted to defuse the tension. "Look at the new fund I invested in. It hasn't been performing well at all. Didn't Grand Construction Corp. mention investing in pharmaceuticals? Why haven't they yet? Is Mr. Ingerton going back on his words?""You met Mr. Ingerton? Did he disclose anything to you?" Karen perked up, getting back to the main topic at hand.Sophia laughed. "Do you think everyone has access to him? Even your husband might not get an opportunity."Karen scoffed. "We are supposed to collaborate with Grand Construction Corp. Besides, Mr. Ingerton's secretary, Reagan, is good friends with my husband. Meeting him wouldn't be difficult!"Sophia brushed off Karen's bragging, knowing she was merely trying to impress the others.Karen was about to retort when she noticed Sophia's disbelief.Suddenly, Jenna shouted after scrolling on her phone. "Heartbound Hall! Oh my! Mrs. Kent, look. Isn't this Heartbound Hall? It's located at Clearwater Alley, so it should be."Karen
