"Congratulations on winning the opportunity with Howard."Charles said it as if he didn't feel like he'd lost to Liesel. Or perhaps, he was trying to act like he didn't care in front of her.Liesel stopped in her tracks. She looked at Charles, who was smiling gently.Charles always had this mask on, elegant and generous. Sometimes, he would seem cold and distant, but he would never let anyone see what he was truly thinking on the inside. He was powerful, yet terrifying.Even though she had worked at Ford Corporation for three years, she had never truly understood him.Or perhaps… she had never understood the dark side of him.She knew that Charles was a very thorough and meticulous person. She also knew that he put a lot of effort into his work. However, when she talked to him, she just never got that feeling from him."It's Howard who wants to work with me, not the other way round. You should know the interests or stakes in this," Liesel said lightly, not hiding the coolness in

The moment Drew spotted Charles, he tensed.Charles looked him up and down then abruptly broke out in quiet laughter. "It seems like you've come to a decision. That's good. Liesel does lack a trustworthy assistant right now, so going to her would be perfect. When do you plan to leave?"He spoke like he was only making small talk, but Drew felt himself shiver. "I haven't decided yet," he said in a dry voice."Once you've made up your mind, let me know," Charles said in a low voice. "I'll throw you a grand farewell."In the past, when Liesel was still a part of the Power Trio, Charles had trusted them completely. He had seen them as his own people, so he'd opened up his heart to them. However, Liesel's departure had taught him that no one could be trusted so easily. Thus, after that, many of Drew's privileges had been stripped away.He now treated Drew like how he treated other people—he secretly pressured them.He had never seen Liesel as a friend, and that wasn't going to cha

At that moment, Edward's phone suddenly rang. Matthew's name flashed on the screen. Frowning slightly, Edward answered. "Father," he said. His voice was stable and calm like always."Edward, are you back? There's an important banquet going on tonight. I hope you can attend," Matthew said over the phone. His voice sounded dangerous and obsessive."I see. I'll be there," Edward replied curtly then hung up.He turned toward Ophelia and Stanley helplessly. "It seems like I have to go and get ready. I have a banquet to attend later.""No worries. We'll drive you home," Ophelia suggested. At the same time, she turned to Stanley to seek approval.Stanley nodded in agreement.Stanley could clearly feel Edward's probing gaze sizing him up. However, he had a calm temperament. He also didn't think Edward was important enough to care about, and he didn't mind being the object of hatred for no reason.The three of them left the airport. The entire way home, the air felt a little tense. Altho

Stanley didn't come from a good background. Even though he was known as the Finance Genius of the finance faculty of Alden University, industry experts wouldn't actually regard him highly.Edward had only made that suggestion so that Stanley would clearly see the gap between him and Ophelia.He wasn't worthy of her.Ophelia was evidently caught off guard. She turned to look at Stanley to seek his opinion, and the latter merely smiled."Sure."Ophelia immediately agreed.When Matthew saw the three of them alight from the car, his eye twitched, but he said nothing. He just nodded with a smile and led them toward the banquet.Ophelia chatted away with Stanley, while Edward pushed Matthew's wheelchair with a stormy look in his eyes. "Who did this to you, Father?"Matthew wouldn't have gotten hurt unless someone had been out to get him."Liesel." Edward's gaze darkened. "I will make her pay the price."Matthew's eyes gleamed dangerously. "I don't need you to do anything for now.

Ophelia blushed shyly, while Matthew's face was expressionless. Edward then said with a slight smile, "Ophelia is still young. Father and I always worry that Ophelia isn't mature enough yet. When it comes to marriage… it's still too early."Matthew had never thought about letting Ophelia get married. His idea was to pull someone in for Ophelia. Once he'd robbed the Ford family assets, he'd give everything to her, making her the heir of the family.This was his true plan.…Back at the banquet, Liesel glimpsed someone who wasn't supposed to be here—Matthew, sitting in a wheelchair. He was severely injured. His head was still wrapped in bandages. Still, he wore an elegant smile on his face.Standing protectively next to him was a handsome and tall man. It was Edward, the adopted son that Matthew always talked about. Meanwhile, Ophelia and Stanley stood on the other side. It appeared that they weren't here for the banquet but just for formalities.Liesel's eyes darkened.It seemed

Matthew himself couldn't truly go up against Liesel, so he needed support to recover. He also urgently needed help to protect Ophelia, which was why Edward had appeared.Rather than calling him Matthew's adopted son, Liesel saw him as the second Matthew.They were both equally fake and dangerous.The smile slowly faded from Edward's face. "Ms. Sharp, do you want everyone present to know that you have a conflict with Ford Corporation?""So what?" Calmly, Liesel took a sip of her hot milk. Then, she continued slowly, "In the end, Ford Corporation would stand to lose. Ford Corporation and I are now on opposing sides. Why should I care if Ford Corporation loses?"The new Liesel was really stubborn. She did not give Edward an opportunity to take advantage of any weaknesses.As he thought, this would be difficult.Just like Matthew said, her being alive was not advantageous for them at all. However… he wanted to snatch everything from her hands before he made her die a painful death.

"Thank you." Liesel steadied herself. When she looked up again, her eyes were frosty.Looking at Reuben, she said ruthlessly, "This is Howard's banquet. The people in charge of this banquet are your team members, Captain Buckner. You should think about how you're going to explain this to me."Then, she stood next to Xavier. Without thinking about the consequences, she kicked Zack harshly. Zack, who was truly out of it, fell from the impact and rolled to the side. Even though he was wearing a suit, he was short and chubby, so it was a comical sight.He seemed to have realized that it was Liesel who had come. He began to shake, suddenly remembering the words that Liesel had said to him the day he got locked up.She had said that she would make him and his son pay the price. She truly was merciless. If it was just a normal prison, they wouldn't have had a mental breakdown like this.What made them crack was that they were assigned to the same cell as the prison thugs. Those thugs see

Howard continued his vulnerable rant. "Come, help me run through the plot. I want to see what choices you make and what ending you'll get. Damn it." He let out another string of curses."Why in the world do you think that I would be able to clear this kind of game?" Liesel really didn't want to deal with this.Howard crossed his arms while looking Liesel up and down. Then, he harrumphed. "Probably because you're the most desired romantic partner in the entire upper class of Ashthorne, Ms. Sharp."Liesel didn't want to hold that title, but she was in an alliance with Howard. It wasn't like she couldn't play a game for him.Thus, under everyone's gaze, Liesel and Howard began to play a dating simulator at a banquet thrown for the upper class.This should have been their turf where they were the most powerful, yet they were playing a trivial game.Howard's assistant, James Pund, was also dumbfounded. After a long pause, he stammered, "Mr. Durham, what about the Scotts—""Be quiet

Howard was confused. "What? Is he a dog? He's so quiet and boring, but if I try to initiate conversation, he doesn't like it. On the contrary, you stay silent, and your favor rating goes up. Is he stupid?"Liesel opened the screen containing the characters' personal attributes and practically shoved the phone in Howard's face.The male character's bio was displayed.There, it clearly stated that until he introduced someone into his protective circle that he considered his people, he would not open his heart to them. He also hated people who didn't have boundaries, and he also detested strangers prying into his life. He also disliked talking about work or family during rest time.However, if he was in love with the player, then it'd been a different story. He would become obsessive to the point of possessiveness and lay everything bare for her on his own accord.Howard's blabbering mouth instantly formed a circle. "Oh, I didn't have boundaries."Finally, they finished the first ph

Edward said with a warm expression, "Aren't you being too authoritarian, Mr. Durham? Perhaps they had only come to the banquet because they had no other choice. Why don't you hear them out? I don't think you're a stone-cold person.""Oh, you Fords were the ones who brought them here."From just Edward's words, Howard had reached a conclusion.Edward was speechless. Even though Howard had said that, how was he so certain?The smile on Edward's face froze momentarily. "Mr. Durham, my father just thought that they were very pitiful, so he wanted to help them out.""Matthew is already in a wheelchair. No matter how you look at it, he's more pitiful than they are. He should help himself first," Howard said with a sneer. He was mocking them without mercy.The calm expression on Matthew's face turned rigid. "Do you know that this banquet is for the upper class as well as researchers?" Howard directed his aloof gaze toward Edward. "Which category do you think these two fall under? Do t
