"Hartford Group has been too peaceful these years. All these parasites have been sucking us dry. I'd love to see how many of them step up to try and pull me down this time." Henry sneered.…Summer only slept for a little over an hour. She woke up right on time at 8:30 am. She lay in bed for a while before she reached for her phone and started browsing different websites.There was no news of Royal Financial Group at all. In the end, she even went into the school's gossip group.The moment she entered, she saw that everyone was talking about Janice.Yesterday at noon, Power Construction had responded to the tent scandal through their lawyers and publicly acknowledged Janice and Anthony's relationship. At the same time, they condemned any malicious individuals for using Janice's reputation to attack Power Construction."I read the lawyer's statement. It's such bitchy behavior.""Janice never mentioned she had a fiancé before. She would just flit around the school and make so many

Summer shot up from her bed in less than three seconds. She couldn't sleep because her mind was filled with too many thoughts. She decided to just forgo sleep altogether as she got up and switched on her computer. Then, she logged into the hacker website that she hadn't touched in a long time.Just a few seconds after she logged on, the entire website exploded."X is back.""You're finally back! Are you a senior in high school? It's been so long after the SATs, and we've all been waiting.""Since you're back, are you planning on challenging for the number one spot?"X replied, "Maybe in the future. I'm here today for recruitment."Everyone was confused."What's going on? Is X actually not a high school student but a headhunter?"Summer typed, "Well, you could say that. I'll give a quick introduction. Our company is called Eridanus, and it was founded not long ago. Just two days ago, we released our first game, After School.""What?""You made After School?""Damn! I was so s

Summer nodded eagerly. "That sounds great! I've never been to this kind of thing before. I have nothing going on today, so can you take me with you?"Kristen was taken aback for a moment.Summer knew that Kristen was planning on quietly handing the role to someone else before the filming started. But she wouldn't give Kristen a chance."Summer, I want to take you to Newford," Kristen said in a low voice.Summer stated firmly, "I'm not going, and you're not, either. Mom, do you know why Dad bought all of this for you?"Kristen shook her head."He's trying to tell you to shine brightly as you pursue what you want to do," Summer said seriously.Kristen looked up at her, her eyes starting to redden.Summer leaned against her and smiled. "Help me pick out a pretty dress. I'm just going to be in the background tonight, so I don't need to be as pretty as during my birthday.""You're really not going to your grandaunt's place? Aren't you scared?" Kristen confirmed one last time.It w

Summer wore a white dress that made her look like a delicate flower that was in full bloom. As she ran against the wind, her hair was kissed by the golden hues of sunlight."Slow down!" Kristen was a bit frightened to see her running in high heels.Summer stopped in front of Kristen and smiled. "These shoes are super stable, Mom.""You're dressed like a fairy, so stop acting like a monkey!" Kristen tidied up Summer's hair.Summer smiled sweetly as she casually glanced up. That was when she saw a car that was parked not too far away."It's about time. Let's go." Kristen took Summer's hand and led her into the car.After Summer sat down, she stole another glance out the window."What is it?" Kristen asked, seeing that Summer seemed to be looking for something."It's nothing." Summer shook her head."Did you think it was Mason?" Kristen hit the nail on the head.Summer nodded. "Didn't he drive a car like that last time?""Summer, when did you and Mason meet?" Kristen asked."I

Everyone knew there were very few people in the world who could call Aspen their uncle. Upon hearing that remark, everyone stood up and looked to the entrance in shock.When the man stepped inside, everyone was shocked for a moment before they looked exasperated."It's him?""Even a bastard child has come to crash Royal Financial Group's shareholders' meeting. It looks like everyone related to the Hunt family is frantically trying to get a piece of the pie with Mason gone.""This can't go on. If Mason really gets removed today, or if he's really dead, then I'll sell all my shares right away."The room was buzzing with discussions.Aspen and Rosanna looked at the young man who just entered. Aspen's face was filled with disdain, as if the person wasn't worth talking to.Rosanna merely smiled. "Saul, didn't you say you weren't coming? What happened? Are you finally convinced that Mason is really dead?""Aunt Rosanna, Uncle Aspen just said that all this isn't important. What's impo

The room was buzzing with discussions.Saul let them go on for a while, and Rosanna looked more and more displeased.Saul glanced at her and noticed she was about to speak. So, he took the initiative and spoke first, "Everyone has been arguing the whole day, but it all boils down to two things everyone's afraid of. The first one is the threats my uncle has been making to you repeatedly…""Brat, what kind of nonsense are you saying?" Aspen shot up from his seat and pointed at Saul in rage.Saul did not panic as he continued, "The second one is that you're afraid that Mason's not dead yet. If you vote to remove him today and he's alive, then based on his personality, none of you will live peaceful lives anymore."Everyone was silent. Saul looked gentle and was quite soft-spoken, but everything he said seemed to send chills down their spines."Saul, what's the point of saying all of that?" Aspen sneered. "We're wasting our time here. Mason's not coming back no matter how much you ta

Kyle was baffled. Based on the original plan, things were definitely meant to progress this way. He looked at Saul in surprise.Was he an enemy or a friend? What was he going to do next?Yet, Saul didn't do anything after that. He merely shouted amid all the noise, "I've already cast my vote. No matter when you plan on starting the vote, I'm standing with Mason."Kyle was very confused.Then, with a slight nod, Saul walked out of the conference room."That's enough!" Aspen's head was hurting from all the arguing. He slammed a file on the desk, silencing the room with a loud bang."Kyle, you claim that Mason isn't dead, right?" He looked at Kyle with burning anger."He's not dead!" Kyle answered.Aspen gritted his teeth. "Fine! Fellow shareholders, this whole week, from the moment Mason disappeared, how many of our subsidiaries' stocks have dropped by over ten percent? Do you know how much money has been lost from this? That money is yours, too, isn't it?"Everyone frowned in s

"That's right, Mr. Griffin. We all want to know if something really happened to Mr. Mason," the others chimed in."I'll do my best to get Mr. Mason here," Kyle said."Don't just do your best. Let's set it at 10:00 am tomorrow. We'll reconvene this meeting then. If Mr. Mason doesn't appear then, we'll appoint an interim CEO to stabilize the situation. He can take over again once he returns from his vacation," Stephen said.Aspen looked at Stephen and sneered.That man really was cunning. He chose to sit on the fence, but he knew exactly how to phrase things when it came down to it. He chose not to offend anyone.Aspen would have despised him for it any other day, but this suggestion benefited him no matter how he looked at it.After all, Mason was dead. He had fired that bullet into Mason's chest himself. The dead could not come back.Besides, an interim CEO was as good as the official CEO."I support Stephen's suggestion." Aspen raised his hand.Those who were neutral all rais

On the other side of the city, a romantic-themed gala was happening by the riverside.There was a red carpet leading into the venue, with many reporters surrounding it. The celebrities that were attending the gala dressed up in glamorous outfits as they posed elegantly, pausing for photos before accepting interviews.Summer had no interest in joining the spectacle. She had exited the car earlier and entered the gala through a side entrance.Meanwhile, Kristen had been pushed straight to the red carpet by Summer.Taking advantage of Kristen walking onto the red carpet, Summer blended in with the staff. Then, she took out her phone and started snapping photos of Kristen.Kristen had rarely attended such events after she stepped away from the spotlight. The reporters seemed incredibly excited to see her. As they snapped photos of Kristen, they started to whisper excitedly among themselves."Does Kristen not age? How is her skin still so flawless despite her age?""You can do it, to

"It doesn't matter how big of a star they are. I can still help you. Tell me. Who is it?" Kristen pressed."The queen of actresses, Kristen Woods," Summer answered seriously.Kristen was stunned for a moment before she laughed. "Oh, you…""It's true. I love the powerful, and who's more impressive in the entertainment industry than my mother?" Summer said.Kristen was exasperated. "Keep your voice down. Be a bit more low-key."As they chatted, several familiar faces approached holding wine glasses."Kristen, it's been a long time. I heard you're joining the cast this time?" a bearded man asked. He seemed to be a director.Summer wasn't that familiar with the entertainment industry. She could recognize a few celebrities, but background roles like directors and screenwriters were a different story."That's the plan for now." Kristen nodded."So, are you making a comeback?" the man asked."If the film industry is still interested in me," Kristen replied tactfully.The man said i
