All Chapters of Hidden Monarch: The Silent Resurgence: Chapter 1381 - Chapter 1390

Martha was stunned by Alisa's words. Alisa had drilled into her that men were no good, and she had always been taught to stay away from them. However, Alisa had told her to get close to one intentionally."Don't overthink it," Alisa warned."I just want you to use your advantages—don't develop any real feelings. If you do, you'll lose your power and regret it for the rest of your life."The desire to own the jade pendant was too strong. Owning it would strengthen her power significantly and make her the most powerful in the world. Then, she would show all those lousy men that women were meant to rule that world.Even though her power was formidable, she was not invincible. Charlie was the founder of the Supreme Defenders, and she could not even beat him. He had advanced into an Earthly Immortal 50 years ago, and his strength was way beyond hers. Plus, he had handed over the Supreme Defenders to Tim years ago so he could focus solely on his cultivation."Alright," Martha agreed.A

The two of them could not figure it out and stopped trying. After all, Henry had said they would find out soon enough.However, Cecilia still looked worried, unsure if Henry would help her. She was out of options and did not have time to devise another plan.After Cecilia left, Henry entered the office. To his surprise, a flashy woman was sitting on Wilfred's lap. The two were all over each other!Henry frowned.Wilfred, not even turning around, was furious."Who the hell are you?" he asked.He never expected anyone would dare barge into his office. He had been so caught up in the moment with his secretary that he had not even bothered locking the door. After all, no one would dare to walk in."Well, well, Wilfred. It hasn't been a while, and you're already showing your true colors."Impressive," Henry said with a cold chuckle.By then, Wilfred recognized Henry. His face turned ghostly pale. Henry's words made him tremble, and his legs started to shake."Mr. Truman, I'm so so

Everyone was stunned. Many people in the room did not even know Cecilia.Cecilia and Lora were also in shock. No matter how hard they tried, they could not have imagined something so far-fetched happening.It was simply unbelievable.Cecilia had considered the possibility of a promotion, but she dismissed the idea as there was no sign to show it would happen.'How could Henry call this a small matter?' Cecilia thought.Lora was equally dumbfounded, sharing the same thoughts as Cecilia. They exchanged bewildered looks.Henry was too good to them!However, not everyone was entirely on board with that decision. The director of the channel sales department said, "Mr. Truman, I fully support your decision. But as far as I know, Ms. Leon hasn't been with the company for long and is unfamiliar with its operations."Furthermore, she's also quite young. Isn't it a bit too hasty to have her take on such a significant role?"Henry glanced at the man and, instead of addressing his concern

"Indeed!"Henry nodded in acknowledgment, though he would not mention the Hoods' present state to the women."Henry, you're truly amazing and impressive!" Cecilia and Lora gazed at Henry with stars in their eyes.Their starry-eyed looks made Henry a little uncomfortable. He quickly said, "The Hoods are nothing. No need to get so worked up.""You have no idea how terrifying the Hoods are in everyone's eyes."The two women smiled wryly."That's because they haven't seen anything impressive. Anyway, I basically got this company for free. So, feel free to go ahead without worrying about any losses."Also, the company has many talented people; you should make the most of them and work together.""I'll do my best!" Cecilia nodded."I'm sending you something useful," Henry said, sending them a file."What's that?" The two women opened the file and were shocked by the detailed information. It contained all the preferences and issues of the middle and senior management of the company.

The train was punctual, and soon, an elderly couple emerged.They appeared to be an ordinary working-class family with a few belongings.Next to them were two young people.One was dressed in branded clothes, hands empty, with an arrogant attitude. He was scanning the surroundings with a proud, self-satisfied look.The other young man seemed somewhat restrained, looking more earnest, with a furrowed brow indicating he might be troubled. He was also carrying some belongings.As soon as the group showed up, Cecilia quickly released her hold on Henry and hurried forward.Henry shook his head in resignation, letting go as soon as the group arrived. It seemed pointless for her to hold his arm earlier. However, it did feel quite nice.Cecilia called out cheerfully, "Dad, Mom!"The elderly couple were delighted to see their daughter and responded warmly.Cecilia then turned to the two young men, especially the one with the haughty demeanor who was staring at Henry with an unrelenting
