Faye panicked as she rambled urgently, “Zayn, why are you so rash?! I’m going to be in deep trouble because of you! I already told you not to come, but you came anyways… Sigh! You should just leave as soon as you can. They’ll seriously haul you to jail!”In comparison to how panicked Faye was, Zayn was the complete opposite. He had a calm expression on his face, he even had a faint smile playing on his lips. He held onto her hand and said, “I’ll be just fine, silly. I told you that I’m here to protect you, so I’m definitely going to fulfill that promise.”“How could you still be boasting so much at a time like this?! You… you’re impossible!” Faye’s eyes had turned red, sincerely worried for Zayn’s well-being. It was a change that she herself did not realize.But Zayn did. He was very happy—her concern felt like a warm embrace. He then said, “Don’t worry. They won’t have the guts to call the police. In fact, they’re going to come around and beg me for forgiveness.”Zayn deliberately

Everyone agreed to what George had just said.“That’s right, that’s right! Mr. Wilson is an esteemed guest who we can’t keep waiting. Let’s hurry up and meet him now!”“Speaking of which, why would Mr. Wilson want to invest in Neotech? Violet Vision is a media corporation. and Neotech’s just an electrical lighting equipment company… Both of these companies are completely unrelated.”“Why does it matter? What matters is that someone’s actually willing to invest in us. We’ve just struck gold!”“That’s right! This means that the Carters aren’t meant to fall just yet. Now that Violet Vision is going to invest in us, our family will surely be able to make a huge comeback, ha-ha-ha…”“This is such exciting news, our family will benefit from this greatly!”The sinister expression everyone had a moment ago had disappeared. In place of it, an expression of pure excitement took its place, as if they had already received Violet Vision’s investment.When George arrived at the entrance, he s

However, all of them simply looked at each other with confused expressions.George then gave a wry smile as he looked at Wilson and said, “Mr. Wilson, this Mr. Larson that you’ve just mentioned… Is he an employee at Neotech?”“I’m not too sure about that, but whatever it is, Mr. Larson’s the reason I’m here today, so if Mr. Larson isn’t here, then I’m sorry to say but this investment’s called off.” Wilson had a serious look on his face and even looked like he was on the verge of leaving. George and the rest of the Carters broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly said, “Please wait for a moment, Mr. Wilson! May I know more about this Mr. Larson that you speak of? What’s his full name? What does he look like? How old is he?” Wilson stopped in his tracks and said, “Mr. Larson is around 26 or 27 years old. He’s about six feet and has a toned figure. As for his looks… he’s quite handsome, but most importantly, Mr. Larson looks very domineering.”After listening to Wilson’s description,

At that very moment, the boardroom doors flung open to reveal George and Wilson. The duo were leading an ensemble of self-important elitists.However, there was something off about them—all them had expressions of unease written all over their faces, mixed with clear concern and distress.Wilson, with his sharp eyes, immediately located Zayn within moments of entering. When Wilson realized how Zayn’s clothes were without a scratch, he loosened up. Zayn had fortunately avoided being the victim of a brutal beating, he figured, which lifted a great burden off his shoulders.He had been dreading what might have been waiting for him behind those doors—he was half-expecting to find Zayn beaten to a bloody pulp, which would have landed him in even deeper trouble. ‘I would’ve cried my eyes out if he blamed me for not doing as I was told. He might have even demoted me!’When Zayn caught sight of Wilson, he made a gesture to him with his eyes as he paired it with a bright smile.The anticip

George gritted his teeth and carried on, “Then about the investment…”Zayn interrupted him, “We can forget about me investing in Neotech. Money doesn’t fall from the sky—I prevent a potential loss when I see one.”As he said that, Zayn pulled Faye away so he could lead her out.George quickly succumbed to the panic as he frantically tried to stop Zayn, protesting, “How would it be a loss? Neotech is only facing a temporary cut in its cash flow. Once we resolve the issue, we’ll be resuming to normal operations in seconds flat. Plus, judging by Waltz City’s current market trends, our profits will steadily come rolling in. You’re our son-in-law, Zayn. Would you ever abandon us at a time like this?”“Ha-ha-ha, abandon you?” Zayn was ticked at his shameless pandering. “Well said, all of you have been using those exact words to pressure Fifi to do your malicious bidding. The concept of familial love is completely foreign to you all. You even had the nerve to slap her. Give me one good re
