When Susie woke up the next morning, she was alone in the hotel suite.Sitting up wearily, she wrapped herself up in the blanket with a despondent expression. She was a little hungover from the wine she drank last night.All of a sudden, she saw a note on the bed.When she read it, she felt humiliated once more."You must've done yoga before, right?"Even though Austin was gone, Susie could still imagine his teasing tone through the words he wrote.Susie grabbed her head in vexation, but she could not vent her humiliation to anyone.Fortunately, the note also meant that he probably forgave her for what she did yesterday.Just then, Susie received a call from Harvey."Susie! Log into the game and check out my battle results. I played so well last night! I got MVP ten times in a row!"Harvey's ecstatic voice only riled up Susie even further. She had spent the night getting played by another man, but all Harvey could think about was his game.She fumed, "How old are you, Harvey

"Why are you laughing?" Brock snapped with a frown.He declared haughtily, "You should've been the one following up on this project. I was only helping you. Don't tell me you expect me to take the blame for the mess."Brock was twisting things around.Austin shrugged. Seething, he sneered and replied, "Sorry. I won't be taking the blame for you this time."What?Brock was dumbstruck. Had Austin gone mad?In the past, whenever Brock pulled this stunt, Austin would agree to it right away!It did not seem like Austin would change his mind, and Brock was starting to panic. The price he agreed to was 30 million more than what the company budgeted for. At a price like that, even if they completed the slum redevelopment project, the company would still go bankrupt from the losses incurred.Brock's brother-in-law was coming over to inspect the company this afternoon. If he found out what happened, he would be furious enough to kick Brock out of the company.After all these years, Broc

Austin smirked as he continued to sit calmly.It was not easy to buy a company.Furthermore, thanks to his management in the last two years, Dominion Properties' profits kept growing.That being said, as long as the price was right, there was nothing in the world that could not be bought.If there were, it was only a matter of upping the offer!As he had an orchid card that gave him access to a bank account with one billion, he could easily afford to buy Dominion.However, it was quicker to let Ezra handle the buyout instead of negotiating the purchase himself.Brock took the call and said in a groveling tone, "Hi, Jacob. When are you coming over? I'll make the arrangements to receive you and give you a report on the company's situation. I just got rid of someone who caused a huge mess for the company."Since he had already fired Austin, he could easily throw the latter under the bus for the contract with the exorbitant price.After all, now that Austin was no longer part of t

Over at Austin's new rental, Ezra was sitting on the couch and looking at Austin with a grim expression."Sir, you were too hasty in making the decision to buy Dominion Properties. The west city slum redevelopment project that Dominion just signed on to handle is enough to bankrupt the company."After getting Austin's call, Ezra immediately got in touch with the necessary parties. Relying on his identity and an offer that was three times Dominion's market value, he was able to complete the purchase within minutes.But when he looked into Dominion's situation afterward, he realized the severity of the situation.If one were to solely look at Dominion's profits, the buyout would not be a loss at all. At most, it would simply be investing 130 million into a learning opportunity for Austin.If Austin wanted to return to his father's family with Dahlia, he needed to gain such experiences.Dominion would keep growing and becoming more profitable—enough to silence the naysayers in the f

The next morning, Austin brought breakfast to the hospital and spent some time with Dahlia.Dahlia's condition was improving every day. Soon, she would be able to recuperate at home.Because of Ezra's connections, Dahlia received excellent care in the hospital. Austin did not have to worry about her.He now needed to start preparing for the west city slum redevelopment project.This was his first time coming forward to handle a project.Even though he had been single-handedly overseeing all of Dominion's previous projects, at the end of the day, it was Brock who took the credit.This time, he not only needed to turn things around for the slum development project and boost Dominion Property's reputation, but most importantly, he was going to prove himself to his father!After over 20 years of neglect and abandonment, his father was suddenly expressing his interest in reuniting the family.It was true that the money from Ezra helped Austin overcome his recent predicament, but Aus
