Yvan headed back to his villa. He was tricking Maxus on purpose.To his surprise, Maxus wasn't upset about this at all. He even ordered his men to send over some good stuff to Yvan.Crossing his legs, Yvan sat on the couch. He had a cigarette between his fingers.Darkly, he stared at the things placed before him. He narrowed his eyes. "Is this really Maxus' idea?"Jerry said, "I think it's his assistant, Luther's idea."Hearing that, Yvan looked up.Meanwhile, Jerry continued, "Although Luther is Maxus' nephew, he's extremely capable and intelligent. That's why Maxus made an exception and hired Luther as his main assistant."Maxus acts impulsively. Usually, he would've gotten angry because of how we stood him up. Why would he even think about sending us gifts?""Luther definitely told him something that caused him to take such an action."Yvan squinted. His impression of Luther deepened slightly. "Look into Luther's background.""Okay.""Just get rid of all these things."T

Carl was a fast learner. He started to mix the dough with ease.Surprised, Sherry said, "I didn't expect you to know how to bake cookies, Mr. Edwards."Carl smiled. He replied, "I'm always here with Surra for New Year's celebration every year. I didn't know how to do it at first. But I found it fun, so I asked Surra to teach me."Right then, Reina smiled and said, "Ever since Mr. Edwards learned how to bake cookies, he'd come over and help Ms. Surra bake cookies for every New Year."Sherry and Harry exchanged a look. Sherry praised, "You knead the dough really well, Mr. Edwards.""Thank you for the compliment."After that, Carl noticed that the cookies Yuna was making seemed different from what he had learned. Curious, he asked, "Surra, what flavor of cookies is this?""This is for making shortbread cookies. The flavor would be oatmeal raisin."Yuna suddenly remembered something. "You've never tried this kind of cookie before. I'll bake a few more just for you to try first late

The reason why Ashton decided to attack again was to test if Yvan was actually in Phoenix City.To his surprise, he managed to lure Yvan out. But the situation wasn't what he expected it to be."So you're saying that Yvan isn't in Phoenix City?"His assistant nodded. "That's right. Yvan isn't in Phoenix City.""Where is he then?" Ashton furrowed his eyebrows.He clearly didn't believe this news. If Yvan wasn't in Phoenix City, why would he travel abroad so frequently?It was strange."The insiders revealed that Yvan recently made a huge business deal overseas. So he has to personally travel there.""Would someone like him care about business deals?" Ashton wouldn't believe such a ridiculous excuse.Even if Yvan was a workaholic in the past, he wouldn't go to such great lengths just for his work.Something was definitely wrong."This is fake news. Go back and look into the matter again. You have to find out where exactly Yvan is!" Ashton frowned and ordered.The assistant no

At that moment, Natalie and Nathaniel were in their room.Nathaniel had a grave expression. He was working on his laptop while Natalie stood beside the window.She kept looking at the roads outside. She promised Nathaniel that she'd tell him immediately if Yuna was back.Staring at how serious Nathaniel seemed, she asked curiously, "Nathaniel, are you sure that the surveillance camera in our house was hacked yesterday?""Yeah.""It can't be. You're the one who checked our surveillance system back then. How could it be hacked? Besides, you didn't notice it at all." Natalie mumbled.She guessed, "Nathaniel, could that hacker be even better than you are?""If he's better than me, he wouldn't have been caught by me after hacking into our system."Natalie could tell that Nathaniel was a bit upset because of this. He even felt that his skills were being challenged."Do you have a way to find out who the hacker is, then?""No."After saying that, Nathaniel closed his laptop. "It wa

After exiting the president's office, Yvan's smile faded slowly. The look on his face was cold and dark.The staff, who wanted to come over and check things out, were all scared away by the icy look on his face.Elizabeth happened to be walking out of the elevator. She bumped into Yvan.It was her first time seeing him.She was stunned for a second. Luther had told her earlier that Stanley would be here to discuss things with them today.Then, she nodded a little. "Hello, Mr. Morgan."Yvan didn't even bother to reply. He merely walked past her and headed downstairs through the elevator.Elizabeth then turned around to watch as the elevator door closed. She bit her lips. She had a really bad impression of Stanley.Furious, she entered the office. Before she could say anything, she heard her father complaining about something."So he paid a visit today just to test the waters. He doesn't intend to collaborate with us at all."That worsened Elizabeth's impression of Stanley.St
