"Uncle Gerald, I'm coming back this time because I want to help my dad reduce his workload.""That's great! You're a good daughter!" Gerald glanced toward Fred and continued, "Fred, you're fortunate to have such a helpful daughter. You can retire in glory now."Fred retorted, "What are you saying? You're pretty much at retirement age yourself. You're just reluctant to leave.""What do you mean by me being reluctant to leave? I just don't want to retire so soon. Retirement life would be too dull."The two old men's argument seemed endless, but their conversation revealed their harmonious relationship.Summer also understood Gerald's situation well. Gerald was still unmarried to that day. He had no wife or children. Work had been the focal point of his life.Though his workaholic tendencies weren't as extreme as James', they were undeniably intense. He practically lived in the office.Thus, Gerald had become Fred's most trusted employee and friend, with a closeness that allowed

Gerald was also deeply troubled by the issue. "Summer, your father and I have been persistently addressing this matter, but the client has been causing delays. Unfortunately, there's little we can do about it.""Can't we just pay them a visit?" "We can't risk that since they are our primary client. Directly approaching them might sour our relationship, putting us in a difficult situation."Charter Corporation faced its own set of challenges. In comparison to Knight Garden's company, Charter Corporation was still relatively small. It wouldn't be wise to offend them.Summer wondered about the identity of Knight Garden's client. The contract only referred to them as Party A. Even if the full company name was mentioned, she couldn't recall ever hearing about them."Knight Electronic Technology Corporation? Uncle Gerald, is this a newly established company?" Summer guessed that the company likely wasn't a small startup, given Gerald's indication of its financial strength.Gerald ex

Lexi smiled warmly as she said, "Mrs. Quigley, welcome home!""I'm back! Where's James? I didn't see him.""Mr. Quigley is in the kitchen, preparing dinner. There are still two dishes left to be cooked."Summer was taken aback by this revelation. She couldn't believe that James had prepared all the dishes on the table. It seemed too incredible!She had assumed that he must have hired a chef to cook. She decided to head to the kitchen to observe James cooking.Before entering the kitchen, she noticed billows of white smoke billowing out from the door, mingling with the enticing aroma of food.From the scent alone, she guessed that James was preparing marinated BBQ chicken, roasted brussels sprouts, and grilled salmon.Peeking into the kitchen, Summer spotted James preparing the dishes which had been her favorites since childhood. Clearly, James must have been aware of her preferences since he had made them for her. He seemed to put considerable effort into it, perhaps even cons

Upon careful consideration, Summer found herself unable to quantify the extent of James' skills.James exhibited proficiency in martial arts, business management, foreign languages, culinary arts, and medicine. It seemed that he excelled in every field.On the other hand, Summer experienced a sense of inferiority. She wondered if all rich people were as extraordinary as James.She had a matter she needed to discuss with James. She felt less reserved now about approaching him since they were officially husband and wife."James, our company is currently negotiating a deal. Although the terms of the deal have been agreed upon, we haven't received payment from the other party yet. Do you have any advice on how we can speed up this process?"The company's cash flow issues were causing significant concern. If not resolved promptly, they could hinder project advancement and even result in bankruptcy.Given his position as the Quigley Group's president, James likely possessed effective s

After explaining her purpose for visiting Knight Corporation to the receptionist, Summer was informed that Henry was not at the company. To be precise, he had resigned a few days prior.Summer was taken aback by this news. She wondered if the contract between Knight Corporation and Charter Corporation was still valid despite Henry's resignation.She hurriedly asked, "Who is currently overseeing operations at Knight Corporation?"The receptionist replied, "I'm sorry, Ms. Charter. A temporary replacement for the president's role has not yet been appointed, but Mr. Ritter is currently managing the company's affairs."Summer's heart skipped a beat at the mention of "Mr. Ritter". Could the receptionist be referring to Keith?Just as Summer was wondering whether it really was Keith, she heard his voice coming from the company's entrance downstairs."Who are you?" Keith's voice was easily identifiable, characterized by its distinctive coldness and hush.Summer had her back turned to hi

Summer wasn't interested in answering his question. With a serious expression, she said, "Mr. Ritter, this is my private matter. It's none of your business. "Although I don't know what changes have occurred in Knight Corporation, since you are now in charge of the company, I want to talk to you about the Knight Garden project.""Do you think I would talk to you?" Keith's eyes were sharp as he glared at Summer, like a snake eyeing its prey.Summer hadn't thought that he would talk to her either. The relationship between the Quigleys and Ritters was delicate, and the relationship between Keith and James was even more delicate.However, the Knight Garden project was Charter Corporation's largest order. The land had already been secured from the government, and the foundation had been laid. If she just gave up like this, Charter Corporation would suffer huge losses.Even if he didn't want to talk, Summer stubbornly continued, "Mr. Ritter, I hope you will be more responsible. Althou

"You only realized it now?" He revealed a faint smile. He was handsome, with striking features and deep blue eyes, but his smile was somehow horrifying.Summer half-closed her eyes. She didn't want to continue this conversation with him. As for his spies, she would inform James later.At that moment, she had come to discuss work matters with Keith, not irrelevant things."Mr. Ritter, I address you politely as such because I'm representing Charter Corporation to discuss the Knight Garden project with you. If you continue to talk about unrelated matters, I will be angry."Upon hearing that Summer would get angry, Keith showed an interested expression. "You'll get angry? That's great. Let's see you get angry.""You!" Summer was momentarily speechless. Was Keith playing games with her?In fact, upon closer observation, Summer could already tell that he was messing around with her. Unfortunately, even though she knew that he was playing her, she had no way of retaliating.The coopera

Summer had no idea how to answer Keith's question, or rather, she didn't want to answer it at all.However, seeing Keith's piercing gaze, Summer knew that he was waiting for her response. So, she casually replied, "I don't know if he's a bad person, and I don't think he's a bad person.""Oh, then you're wrong. It seems that your relationship with James isn't progressing well. I'm telling you, he's just as bad as me."Keith's expression darkened, and his eyes emitted a chilling light. He continued, "I killed my brother, and James trampled on countless people's bodies to get to where he is now."His words carried a lot of information, and Summer couldn't wrap her mind around it for a moment.What did Keith mean by saying that he killed his brother? And that James climbed to his position by trampling on countless people's bodies?Summer thought that Keith was just being mysterious, probably just to tease her. She nodded and said casually, "I see. Then, James really is bad."Keith c
