Aria raised her eyebrows, thinking Landon had made quite a dramatic entrance.

Landon's good looks and proximity to Aria caused the cafeteria to erupt in wide-eyed stares, especially from Malcolm, who nearly dropped his utensils on the table.

Landon, impeccably dressed in a suit, seemed oblivious. He leaned in, tucking a strand of Aria's hair behind her ear with a chuckle. "Could you ask your classmate to scoot over a bit? I brought you lunch."

Aria set down her spoon, propping her chin on a hand. "He's not a classmate but a friend from the Lowe family. Why didn't you tell me you were coming back?"

Landon sneered when he heard the word "friend". Then, he loosened his collar and smiled brightly. "I just got off the plane and didn't have time to message you."

As he spoke, he threw a glance at Malcolm. "Can I have my girlfriend back, please?"

The request, delivered in a polite yet unyielding tone, was underscored by a dark, domineering glint in his eyes.

Malcolm gulped and relented,

    Aria was devouring the ribs in the cafeteria while Landon looked at her from beside. It seemed he was only there to bring her lunch and nothing more.Girls flocked around, ogling at Landon. He responded with a raised eyebrow and the occasional sickly cough. He exuded an air of unattainable mystique, approachable only to Aria. "Aren't you going to eat?" asked Aria. "I have a business lunch later," Landon replied, his refined manners starkly contrasting with the students around him. Plus, he also exuded a commanding presence. He then sent a voice message in Nobeetan, his voice surprisingly dreamy. Seeing he was busy, Aria didn't disturb him.The roasted ribs, pork belly, and prawn suited her tastebuds more, and since Landon had a weak stomach, he was better off drinking soup. With that in mind, Aria pushed the mushroom soup toward him. Landon smiled, phone still in hand, before taking the spoon from her and bringing it to his lips for two delicate sips. The action was intim

    Landon's dismissal of her taste rankled Aria. She wasn't one to tolerate gaslighting. Just as she opened her mouth to retort, she caught his gaze flit to Malcolm. Understanding dawned, and a slow grin spread across her face. "Do you think I'm interested in Malcolm?"Landon remained silent, his eyes an unreadable storm. "You don't like Malcolm?" Aria pressed, arching her eyebrow. "The Lowe family raised him well," Landon hedged, avoiding a direct answer. Aria's smile widened. "So you dislike him, then? Malcolm's a good guy—righteous, innocent, and youthful."A dangerous glint flickered in Landon's eyes despite the lingering smile on his lips. "Oh?" Aria didn't plan to hide. "I only treat him as my subordinate."After Landon mulled over the word's meaning, he didn't seem as intimidating anymore.His behavior today was out of character. Perhaps it was the scene he saw when he entered the door, almost causing him to lose control. It seemed that he needed to head to the old mona

    The ever-polite butler informed Aria, "Mr. York is currently in a meeting. He instructed us to tell you that you can reach him on his personal number when you're awake. He will take your calls.""No need. Let him have his meeting in peace. I'll need to take my exam too. Thank you for your coffee. It's delicious," Aria replied smilingly.The butler smiled. "It's my honor to serve you."For someone under Landon's care, Aria displayed remarkable composure.Aria entered the examination hall five minutes earlier.Normally, students would be low on energy for afternoon exams. However, Aria was well rested. She completed her answers even faster than she had in the morning.By 4:00 pm, Aria had finished all her exams and handed in her papers.The grading teachers had been eagerly awaiting her answers.Once the papers were collected, Abraham used the PA system to announce to all students and faculty that Aria's results would be posted on the bulletin board tomorrow morning.

    Aria, who had just finished her exams, had no idea that she was the hottest topic of conversation between the socialites in Janovin. Her way of thinking differed from theirs, making it natural that she wouldn't be too chummy with them. Aria prioritized her career and preferred earning more money over thinking about men.Aria exited the examination hall and entered an SUV, where Harry awaited. He showed her the acquisition proposal he'd prepared. "The price can be lower," Aria said while circling something with a pen, "Shonda Jenner, the business manager of Kent Group, can stay, but fire everyone else."Harry nodded. "I'll arrange for that right away.""We're not in a hurry." Aria propped her chin on her palm as she fiddled with her amethyst pendant. "Wait till Marshall is on his last legs before heading over there."Soon, as if her words had come true, Kent Group came to be in a serious crisis. Both their business partners and the four largest banks in Southbury were no longer

    "What?" Marshall was so angry he laughed out loud. "Are you offering only 50,000 dollars for a company as large as mine, Mr. Ingerton?"Harry seemed unperturbed. "You don't want it? Fine."He ended the call so fast that Marshall hadn't even managed to react to it. He remained confused for some time.He called all the noble families he was on good terms with the following day, but no one talked to him.This was Marshall's first time experiencing what it meant to be at the lowest point of his life. When he'd initially driven Georgina away with such delight, he hadn't expected to feel such anguish at this moment. Marshall, who was used to getting deference and respect from other people, was now bankrupt. He couldn't handle the immense pressure that came with it. After thinking of the external debts and the more than 100 employees demanding their salaries, he decided to call Harry. "Mr. Ingerton! I'm willing to sell the company for 50,000 dollars! On one condition—I want to sign the

    Abraham did not sleep well that night. He called Malcolm over for a chat. "Do you think Aria will pass the exams?"Malcolm was tortured for so long his eyes had glazed over. "This is the tenth time you've asked me this, Grandpa. Yes, she will!"Abraham was still worried. "Did I set the threshold too high? 590 points is impossible even for Cameron."Malcolm yawned. "You can't compare that useless lump who's my brother to Aria, Grandpa."Cameron was speechless after being insulted out of nowhere. He was still indignant as he said coldly, "I don't understand why you insist on helping her, Grandpa. She and Lily come from the same family, but look at Lily, then at Aria! "Not only did she get horrible grades, but she'd also cheated! The questions were so difficult, and yet she'd copied the right answers down on the answer sheets as if she wasn't afraid of being exposed for cheating at all!""Quiet, Cameron!" Abraham said crossly, "The next time I hear you say those insulting words, I'

    Lily felt much more relieved after hearing about Aria's situation from Cameron. She'd seen Marshall's calls, but she'd blocked him—she didn't want to return any of his calls.Heartbound Hall's stream was performing so well that she couldn't just ignore it. However, it so happened that her family in the countryside had called to ask for more money. They were even more adept at exploiting her for their own gain than Marshall. It didn't hurt that they were privy to a secret concerning her, either. This meant that Lily couldn't just ignore them all the time. Olivia was audibly anxious as she asked, "So when can you meet us, Lily? Someone came here to ask about Aria again, and your dad and I really don't want to live in constant anxiety like this all the time. Maybe you can come over to the countryside and take us with you to the city."Lily had an idea. "Mom, I recall that the town chief's son has yet to get married."Olivia felt awkward bringing this up.

That was hilarious.""She's from the countryside. That's why she's boasting all the time. Look! She came with her grandma and the old lady stinks."Georgina heard that, obviously, seeing from how she looked crestfallen. Aria turned her gaze at the clique of students laughing and jeering at her, and the air around her seemed to have become frigid. Meanwhile, someone shouted, "Ms. Warsaw is here!"Deanie was in charge of sticking the results on the bulletin board. In order to quell dissent, she didn't dally, and she also pasted the answer sheets on the board along with the results.Everyone suddenly went quiet as they read the results, their eyes wide in disbelief.

    Priscilla twirled her long hair and took a sip of her coffee. "I didn't have much confidence back then. I always followed you, never daring to try things on my own. It's only now, after trying for myself, that I've realized some things."She added, "Opening a medispa has always been my dream, and that's how it all started. Now, all the wealthy women in Ludwiten come to me for fillers and anti-aging treatments. If you're interested, you should come by. I can even fix your nose a little."Priscilla smiled. However, her smile was a little off, perhaps from a recent treatment. She pressed her fingers to her eyes. "I can't smile too much, or I'll get wrinkles. I envy your flawless, youthful face, Fiona. What's your secret?""Probably just staying indoors and avoiding the sun," Fiona replied, carefully omitting the fact that her soul had entered a manifestation.Priscilla's expression darkened, her voice tinged with frustration.

    Leon typed so quickly that Aria suspected it was a result of his experience arguing with his online haters. Aria couldn't get a word in as Leon flooded the entire group chat. She was speechless—his typing was even faster than a hacker like her. Celebrity Carver: "I'm worried about Aria. I should have gone on the train too!"Aria freed one hand to reply, "No need to worry. Fergus is with me."Celebrity Carver: "Fergus has never been in a relationship himself. What does he know?"Boss Carver: "Leon, aren't you getting too full of yourself lately?"Leon kept his head down, continuing to type. He was filled with worry for Aria.Unbeknownst to anyone, a mysterious person watched Leon with intense focus. The gaze was unsettling as if the person were ready to explode with hatred at any moment.The person only looked away when Leon entered the VIP lounge.

    Their positions were reversed in an instant.Landon was pinned down, a few stray strands of hair falling over his face. His long, dark eyelashes gave him a somewhat coy expression. Aria, on the other hand, appeared dominant, with one hand pressing down on his wrist and the other on his shoulder. This was the scene the attendant walked in on. She cleared her throat slightly before speaking, "Sir, here are your fruits."The attendant's voice caught the attention of Fergus, who was seated in the last row. He put down his tablet and glanced over. What he saw was Aria playfully pressing down on Landon's wrist. Fergus couldn't help but rub his temples, unsure how to express his current feelings.When Leon mentioned that Aria was pursuing Landon, Fergus hadn't thought much of it. However, seeing for himself, he could only think of ways to keep Landon around for Aria.But Aria couldn't be too forward as they weren't married yet. At the thought of that, Fergus deliberately coughed.

    It was the first time Aria had ever felt this way. The sensation made her dizzy, yet she couldn't get enough of it. Every inch of her mouth was filled with Landon's scent, and his fingers felt astonishingly hot. The sounds around them faded, leaving only the rumble of the train as it passed through the tunnel. There was an undeniable closeness between them. His soft kisses and teasing bites on her lips made her feel a little lightheaded. With her eyes covered, Aria instinctively sought something to steady herself. The rhythmic thump of his heartbeat echoed in her ears, its force making escape seem impossible. His kiss, commanding and intense, contrasted sharply with his calm demeanor. It seemed as though he was determined to pull her deeper into his embrace. Yet, despite the overwhelming sensation, Aria couldn't bring herself to resent it. Instead, she found herself surrendering to it. The sounds around them slowly returned as they emerged from the long tunnel, light creepi

    Landon raised his hand and spoke calmly before ending the call. "Go and tell your boss that only Farshyans can manage the Chamber of Commerce."When Westin tried calling back, no one answered. For years, foreigners had enjoyed preferential treatment in Farshya. As Westin mentioned, some universities favored foreign students, offering them special care. Foreigners received priority access to events, complimentary ice cream, and exclusive show tickets at car exhibitions. Many Farshyans were thrilled just to exchange a few words with them.Westin's best friend even had a Farshyan girlfriend who was utterly devoted to him. She tolerated their insults with a smile as long as he promised to take her abroad and secure her permanent residency.This sense of entitlement made foreigners like Westin feel superior to the locals. Westin, in particular, had been flattered by Farshyan businessmen for so long that he'd never experienced such outright rejection.Other suppliers and port officia

    Despite the shifting tides, some stubborn members of the Chamber of Commerce clung to their cunning ways, refusing to yield.Previously, Westin had assumed that his target, known for being money-obsessed, would agree without much resistance. But upon arriving, he found himself drinking far more than discussing business.Two days and a relentless hangover later, Westin realized he'd been played. That wily old man! Refocusing his attention on the task at hand, Westin addressed the screen with renewed determination. "Mr. York, it's not just Ludwiten's companies interested in partnering with us. Even the Wagner family from Janovin is eager to collaborate. "If there's something holding you back, let me know. But remember, opportunities don't wait. I urge you to reconsider—going solo carries significant risks."As Westin spoke, Landon listened calmly, his expression unchanging. He even shifted slightly to make Aria more comfortable in her seat. Nearby, an attendant whispered with a

    Aria lay on her side, with Landon seated on her right. She wondered if the York family would grow uneasy about his prolonged absence from home. Landon was clearly in the middle of a meeting. His deep, pleasant voice carried a hypnotic quality, occasionally interspersed with authentic Nobeetan phrases. He spoke so softly that those further away would struggle to hear him, yet his tone was laced with an understated menace that no one could ignore.The person on the other end of the meeting dared not contradict him. Landon's calm demeanor masked a chilling authority. He wasn't the kind of superior who exploded with anger—those were predictable. The truly terrifying ones were those whose moods were inscrutable and whose actions were ruthlessly decisive."We won't pursue a joint venture then. The York Group will proceed independently." Landon chuckled before continuing politely, "Let me remind you, this is Farshya—not the early days when we were inexperienced and desperate for capital.

    At first glance, Kael's youthful face and wide, innocent smile made him look like a naïve fresh graduate. Yet, Aria knew better—beneath that façade was someone exceptionally skilled at navigating the intricate social dynamics of aristocratic families. "Mr. Warsaw has truly entrusted me with his most valuable apprentice," Aria said with a soft chuckle.Kael, ever attentive, refused to let her carry any luggage. "Mr. Warsaw feels more at ease knowing I'm with you. I'll take good care of you when we reach Ludwiten. You've been too exhausted lately."Watching Kael's efficiency, Fergus realized the extent of Stephen's meticulous planning. Kael handled matters with a precision that even surpassed Fergus' own assistant."Ludwiten is complicated. Whatever you do, prioritize your safety," Warren had warned them before their departure. For Warren, nothing was more important than the safety of his grandchildren. The world of high-stakes investments was fraught with hidden dangers. One miss

    Those weighed down by darkness find no rest at night.An old cottage in Ludwiten stood cloaked in shadows, its walls overrun with vines and its history etched into the crumbling façade. The oak tree outside swayed in the moonlight, its rustling leaves carrying an eerie whisper that seemed to pierce the silence."Sir, I don't understand why you're hesitating. If we could seize the Carver family's fortune, why not do the same to the Grishams?" The speaker was wearing a black cloak that obscured his face. "We've successfully fooled Mrs. Kincaid, and everything is in place. The saintess is growing impatient—so why are you still hesitating?"The old man responded with a scoff, his cough rasping through the veil of white fabric that shrouded him. "Your flawed information caused me to miscalculate the Carver family's fate. And now you dare to rush me?"The cloaked figure flinched, his fear evident. "You've misunderstood, sir.
