Austin smiled and jokingly said, "Why do you make it sound so serious? Do I still have that much charm?""I don't even know when I fell in love with you," Cecily said while sobbing. Her voice was filled with pity and helplessness.Love knew no reason, but it ran deep …Austin hesitated.Suddenly, he didn't know how to respond to Cecily.Seeing that Austin was hesitating, Cecily suddenly threw herself at him.Their eyes met, and the dim yellow streetlights cast a faint glow on Cecily's face, making her look pitiful and enchanting.She held Austin's face in her hands. Her red lips were trembling, "I don't care about your past. I only want to have a future with you. I want to help you reach your full potential and go to places you're meant to go, instead of being with Nancy and her family, who only know how to take advantage of you."After saying that, she leaned forward.And … she kissed him.In that instant, Austin's body stiffened. He felt the softness on his lips, and his mi

Cecily's reply left Austin puzzled.When he returned to his rented room, the lights were still on.Aldus sat on the couch with his eyes closed.Austin smiled and asked, "Aldus, you haven't slept yet?""Sir, Ezra called," Aldus opened his eyes and said with a serious tone.He continued, "Ezra rushed back to the family home overnight. And Taylor also hasn't left Isonburg."Austin asked, "What happened?"Ezra was the assistant sent by his father, whom he had never met. For him to return to the family home so suddenly meant that something must have happened.Moreover, it had to be related to Taylor. Otherwise, Aldus wouldn't have mentioned both of them together."I don't know yet," Aldus shook his head, "but from what Ezra said over the phone, it seems to be related to Taylor."Suddenly, Austin found it somewhat amusing.A father he had never met wanted him to return to inherit the family fortune. But now, Ezra had to return to the family home overnight just because of what Tayl

She had not a single idea about the boycott notice on Dominion Properties from beginning to end.Dave signed the notice as a representative of her and Dominion!"Ms. Graham, this is a standard industry practice. Dominion has offended the industry."Dave pretended to be caught in a dilemma and said, "If we don't do this, we will also be boycotted by other colleagues. Although Yandell is the top material supplier in Isonburg, we cannot bear such pressure."After a pause, Dave lowered his voice a bit, seemingly complaining, "Moreover, the contract we signed with Dominion was already at an extremely low price. This will lead to more competition in the industry. This is an opportunity for us to terminate the contract.""Do you think I'm a toddler?" Cecily was furious.She pointed her finger at the folder. "The contract has already been signed, and you're telling me about the boycott now? Even if Yandell has to pay a price to work with Dominion, so what? Dominion is a golden goose. Sud

After Austin left the company, Matt clapped and said, "Did you all hear that? Austin will find a solution. Back then, he mentioned that the west city slum redevelopment project wouldn't suffer any losses. I'm sure everyone knew how it went, right? We have to believe in him, so let's get to work now!"The anxious employees smiled in response. Ever since Austin bought Dominion and the property prices in west city skyrocketed, their trust in him peaked.A cab zoomed across Heavensgate Residence and halted before the front gate of a villa. As Austin emerged from the car, he glanced at the villa before him. Shortly after, his gaze roved over another villa in the distance.He remembered he'd bought that one.He flashed a confident smile as he remarked, "Taylor, no matter how powerful you are, you can't unleash your full potential here. There's no way you can have your way here."From what Aldus told him last night and what happened this afternoon, it was easy for him to guess that i

Austin smiled and replied, "I'm always grateful to have Mr. Lockwood, but if I ask him for help every single time something happens, then all his guidance and mentorship will be in vain.""Haha … you're right."Jacob smiled, his eyes flickering as he continued, "It's just like how I guided you back then. If I didn't give you the opportunity to showcase your skills, you wouldn't be able to become vice president in three years."He set down his cup and waved airily before he added, "In fact, when you were on your way here, I'd already contacted three foreign suppliers. Based on their abilities, they shouldn't have issues supplying the west city slum redevelopment project. However, their payment terms and quotations might be more stringent than the locals.""I understand. Since it's urgent, money isn't an issue here."Austin nodded and expressed his gratitude sincerely. "Mr. Sanders, thank you so much for promptly addressing this. I'll remember this favor.""Don't mention it. How

Was Austin promoted?Cecily's eyes flickered with a hint of slight resentment. He didn't even bother to tell her. She nodded and said, "Then, I'm looking for Mr. Campbell."When she was browsing through materials related to Dominion, she knew it was merely one of the minor companies that belonged to the boss, who yielded power behind the scenes. Although Austin was promoted to president, he still had to report back to his boss. She would have to help him with his explanation."I'm sorry, Ms. Graham. Mr. Campbell's not in the office now," the staff member replied apologetically.Cecily's heart skipped a beat. Was he already summoned by the boss?The west city slum redevelopment project was deemed to be extremely exploitable. Now that Dominion was being boycotted by all the local suppliers, it was impossible for Austin, who was the president, to escape the consequences.Her face turned ashen upon this thought. Initially, she intended to help him. Yet, little did she know the

After Cecily's ambiguous statement, she hurried off with her head hung low. Since Austin had everything under control, she had to be back to the company to work on dealing with Dave now.As Austin watched Cecily disappear into the distance, he rubbed his nose in confusion."What in the world is she sorry for?"He shook his head and turned toward his office. When he met the wishful gazes of his employees, he smiled and said, "It has been resolved."The office erupted in a rally of cheers. The employees were thrilled."Austin, you're awesome! I knew you would have this matter taken care of.""It sure is assuring to be under Austin. I'm no longer worried now.""Chop, chop, let's get to work, guys! Given how fantastic Austin is, we can't slack off either!"Austin flashed a smile when he saw the office buzzing with excitement. He returned to his office and became immersed in work. …The Porsche 911 raged right into Yandell Corp's parking lot.Once Cecily was back at her offi

Austin was still palpably flustered when he returned to his rented place.What happened at Legacy Hospital kept getting on his nerves. He simply couldn't shrug it off. Taylor's appearance definitely wasn't a coincidence. Little did Austin expect that what he was worried about the most would happen this quickly. However, he wouldn't allow such things to even occur."Sir, what's wrong?" Aldus stared at him, visibly confused. Austin glanced over at his watch and said, "Aldus, let's head out now. You'll have to train me."With a crease between his brows, Aldus replied, "Sir, it's getting late now. And you've been busy for the whole day. Are you sure your body can take it?"He had no idea what resulted in Austin's current state, but he was positive that something must have happened. "Aldus, say, if I train every morning, how long will it take for me to be able to take down Taylor?" Austin asked. After pondering on his question for a while, Aldus answered, "At least a year."
