Chapter 71 Nox Knows

The reignited wrath of the workers prompted Queenie to take more action. "If you don't believe me, I can swing by the bank and withdraw some money."Hudson sneered. "You're going to withdraw some money? Why should we trust you? What if you run away?"Angrily, Queenie said, "Then, you guys can come with me.""We're not going. We want cash, and we want it right now. Pay us, or you're not leaving," said Hudson, and he riled up the workers. "Listen up, people. We can't let them run away this time!"The workers were convinced, and things got out of control again.Queenie's parents were scared by the sight of this chaos. If they pushed the workers to the brink, they knew these people would stop at nothing to get what they wanted.George had to step in. "Honey, you need to call the family. We need to take whatever cash we have. And call all our friends. We'll have to take a few loans."Yvette was tearing up, but she quickly made the calls. Queenie, on the other hand, was blowing up wit

Chapter 72 Swines Again

"Take me to Queenie right now."The servant paused for a moment. "But Master George told me to raise the funds. If they can't pay the workers today, something bad is going to happen.""Don't worry about the money. Just take me to Queenie, and I'll handle it," Nox said.The servant was hesitant. After all, she didn't know Nox. She didn't think she could trust him so easily.In the end, Henry had to step in. "What are you waiting for? Take Queenie's husband and go."The servant shivered and looked at Nox again. "Yes, of course, sir.""I leave Queenie to you, lad. Take her home in one piece," Henry told Nox.A smile curled Nox's lips. "Of course, Henry. I'll bring her home safely." He then left the house quickly and hopped into the car.The servant was driving. On the way there, Nox borrowed a phone from her and called Alexander. "Alex, do you still have the cash I told you to bring along last time?"Alexander was in his office. "Yes, milord. I still have it.""Good. I need some

Chapter 73 Hudson Punished

"I do have money. The card is legit!"Queenie tried to explain, but Hudson wasn't going to listen. "Either you pay up, or I'll make you. We worked our asses off for you, and you're withholding our salaries? Guys, what say you? Should we make them pay?"Their emotions stirred, the workers roared, "Yes!"A venomous sneer twisted Hudson's lips. He held his steel bar tighter and jabbed it at Queenie. "One last time. Pay up!"Queenie was crying from fear now. She had no cash to pay everyone."You're not paying? Then you're asking for it." Hudson approached Queenie.George darted ahead and tried to stop him, but Hudson kicked him away. George fell, the pain keeping him down.Queenie roared, "Dad!"Hudson raised his weapon.The steel bar swung away at Queenie, but the split second before Queenie was hit, someone grabbed the weapon."You filthy bastard. How dare you attack my woman?" A towering figure stood before Queenie.It was none other than Nox.Hudson froze. Jezebiah and Hogs

Chapter 74 Paid For

The sight of Ferguson petrified George while Queenie's eyes went wide.Ferguson approached Queenie and smiled. "We meet yet again, Ms. Sanders.""M-Mister, what brings you here?" Queenie stared at Ferguson, dumbstruck.Ferguson answered, "My employer has heard of your financial woes. He sent me here to aid you. Monetarily speaking, of course."'Monetary aid?' Queenie's parents were speechless, and so was Queenie.Ferguson then snapped his fingers at the armored cars. The great vehicles roared closer to the factory. A dozen armed officers leaped out of the vehicles and pulled the doors open, revealing wads of cash stacked in the storage.Four armored cars brought a total of 150 million dollars. The impact stunned everyone once more. The workers, Queenie, and her parents, everyone. Yes, Jezebiah and Hogs included. Eventually, Hogs' legs buckled, and he almost fell unconscious.Nox was the only one standing still."A hundred and fifty million, Ms. Sanders. Take it. If you need mor

Chapter 75 Confrontation

And with Empire Corp's help, the fiasco came to an end. The workers were paid, and the Sanderses could rest easy.Queenie, however, was still staring at the armored cars and the mountains of cash within. She was still basking in disbelief, but Ferguson eventually came up to her and broke her out of her stupor."Now that your financial woes are settled, what will you do? Do you require more assistance?"Queenie stared at Ferguson for a while. She shook her head."Very well. We shall be taking our leave, then."Ferguson was about to leave, but Queenie blurted, "Hey, wait a minute."Ferguson turned around, smiling at Queenie. "What might you need, Ms. Sanders?"Queenie pointed at the armored cars. "Can you tell me the reason you guys keep helping me? I don't think I know anyone in Empire Corp."The smile on Ferguson's lips remained. "But my employer knows you.""You mean Alexander, the richest man in Riverton?"Ferguson nodded, but that only added to Queenie's pile of questions.

Chapter 76 Henry's Fury

Queenie didn't stop scolding her uncle.Since they were having a falling out anyway, Hogs sneered. "You think you can lecture me, girl? Empire Corp might be backing you up, but I call the shots in this household. You're already exiled, girl. You're not a part of this family.""You call the shots? Grandpa is still alive. No one but him can exile me," Queenie retorted snarkily."Dad? He's been bedridden for years. If you're trying to scare me, you're doing a bad job."And then a roar exploded through the air. "You think I'm bedridden?"Hogs knew that voice all too well, and he froze in shock. Then, he saw a familiar silhouette strutting into the scene. The man was none other than Henry."Dad!""Grandpa!"Queenie and her parents couldn't believe Henry just showed up out of nowhere. Jezebiah and Hogs were both shocked. They were staring at Henry unblinkingly, their blood growing cold.'Henry is awake?' That was the thought that went through their heads."Dad, you're awake. I thou

Chapter 77 Punishment

Hogs said, "I'm sorry, Dad. I'm sorry.""You think an apology alone will cut it? No. From now on, you are forever exiled from this family. You are not to return to the household for as long as you live!" Henry bellowed.Hogs plopped down on his behind. A long while later, he raised his head, his eyes red. "Must you go this far, Dad? Don't you care about me? I'm your son."Henry answered, "And that's the only reason I'm not going further, you animal."Hogs burst into laughter. "Fine. If you're going to exile me and Jezebiah, then so be it. But listen closely, you bastards. I won't forget this."He glared at Queenie. "And you, girl. This isn't the last you've seen of me." Hogs said, "Jezebiah, we're leaving."And they left, exiled from the family. What they did had nothing to do with the Sanderses anymore.Jezebiah and Hogs got what they deserved, but Queenie only saw them off in silence. She then looked at Henry. "Grandpa, I thought you were ill. How'd you wake up all of a sudden

Chapter 78 The Backing of Henry

Henry started tearing into him. "I haven't even started with you! Did you force Queenie into a marriage with Centersea's heir for the family?"George's heart skipped a beat. "Dad, I—""Silence! You would sell out your own daughter because of your own failure? I can't believe you still have the audacity to stand here and act all high and mighty!"George couldn't talk back."I'm telling you, I will not allow anyone but Nox to marry Queenie." He summoned Nox over and turned to Queenie. "Queenie, you come here too."Queenie approached Henry. Henry held Queenie and Nox's hands and put them together. "I might've been bedridden for a couple of years, but I'm not blind. I can see you two will make the perfect match. Start dating and get married at the end of the year if you can."He added, "And give me a great-grandkid while you're at it.""Grandpa!" Queenie's cheeks were as red as blood, and Nox smiled dryly."That's all I have to say. Now, let's go home." Henry grabbed Nox's hand in

Chapter 79 A Family Meeting

Eventually, the Sanderses were all gathered. Nuclear and extended family. Queenie, her parents, and all the branch families were there. Henry was in the main seat, healthy and lively.He scanned everyone present and cleared his throat. "I'm calling this meeting for an announcement.""What is it?" George asked curiously.A pause later, Henry announced, "I have been informed of our family's situation over the last two years. The main agenda of this meeting is to announce the next family head's candidate. I am, after all, getting on in age.""We're having a new family head?" The Sanderses were stunned."That is correct." Henry nodded. "And the new family head shall be Queenie. Any objections?"There was an uproar. They couldn't believe Henry would make Queenie the next family head.One branch family member spoke up. "That's against the rules, sir. Hogs and George are still around, after all."Henry answered, "I've exiled Hogs. That animal is no longer part of the family, so he's o

Chapter 80 Carola

Henry got up, smiling at Nox. Nox shook his head."George told me you lost your memories and have no idea who you are. You don't even remember where your house is." He approached Nox.Nox listened silently. Henry blurted, "Just think of this place as your own home."Nox's heart fluttered."I don't know how far you've gone with Queenie, but I want her to marry a good man. Then I can rest easy. As her grandfather, I ask you: can you take care of Queenie?"Nox looked at Henry. "I can.""Good. That's all I want to hear." Henry patted Nox's shoulder. "It's not easy for the family to get this far. I would like for you and Queenie to keep it going on for a while longer.""Don't mind George," he added. "He's lived his whole life playing it safe, but he's a good kid."Nox nodded."That's all I have to say. You're dismissed," Henry said.Nox took his leave. Henry saw him off, and he narrowed his eyes.The moment Nox came out, Queenie hurried up to him. "What'd Grandpa say, Nono?"Nox
