Upon receiving Theophilus's reassurances last night, Dulcie was still skeptical, hardly expecting the Latin Corporation to cease their oppressive attempts to overthrow the Miller's Jewel Corporation. Although she needed to figure out how Theophilus managed it, Dulcie trusted that s indeed his achievement. Yet, to her surprise, her parents attributed their survival to Samantha's intervention. "Theophilus took care of it? Oh, darling, you've been hoodwinked by that man!" Ariel lamented: "Can't you see that Theophilus is incapable of such a feat? He's the one who created this mess, plunging us into this turmoil. It took all of your father's and my persuasion to convince Duane to assist us, helping our corporation weather this storm." "Now, Theophilus dares to claim this victory as his own, exploiting your trust! He's truly shameless!" Ariel fumed, her voice laced with contempt and anger whenever she mentioned Theophilus. "Here's the contact Samantha and Duane gave me, but it's not wo

Now, the Latinh Group has taken control of the business world in Elysian Echo. The Connors and the Charlies used this power to rise. The brothers Victor and Eugene knew that the Charlie and Connor families had a tight relationship, so they no longer afraid to antagonize Dulcie behind her back. "Um..." Ariel's complexion was very poor, and she longer dared to take Eugene's two people. In her heart, she also understood the current situation very well. Indeed, her daughter didn't have substantial influence in Elysian Echo, especially when the capital was still uncertain, the company was on the verge of collapse, and being harassed by the Eugene brothers, it was hard to find a countermeasure. "Alright, if you're interested, continue your tour. The company has just been established. Take a good look." Victor seemed delighted: "Even the Blue Sea Corporation's investment in your company has encountered difficulties. I wonder if your counterfeit company has enough capital to continue its op

Anselm's visage wore an unspeakable grimace, yet he mustered the strength to lift his wine glass, his head pounding and vision blurring. The alcohol had kicked in, his body swaying unsteadily. "Brothers, honorable CEOs, my apologies. I seemed to have choked a bit earlier." Anselm cautiously addressed the crowd. "Father, let's leave. This is just... too much. We should go." Dulcie had risen, her heart aflame with rage and, at the same time, awash with pity. It was a flagrant insult, a blatant dishonor at this banquet table as if their family counted for nothing. "But..." Anselm started to object, his expression full of regret. To offend such influential figures at this banquet could doom their future in Elysian Echo. "Miss Dulcie, don't say we didn't give your family a fair chance. You failed to seize the opportunity, even daring to affront these CEOs. I suggest you reconsider using the precious gemstones from the Miller Corporation or face the wrath of these two CEOs and leave no

The countenance of Theophilus remained tranquil as ever. He gently sipped his tea and asked casually: "Has Chris not clarified the situation to them?" "Do you know Chris?" Keyes looked surprised, his gaze upon Theophilus one of disbelief. How could such a useless son-in-law like Theophilus win Chris's favor? "Theophilus, this good-for-nothing, you understand nothing at all. Even if you do know Chris, his inviting you to this party is an honor you don’t deserve. Do you truly consider yourself prestigious?" Keyes reproached with an arrogant tone: "Don't you know to rise and greet when Chris enters the room? How dare you occupy the host's seat in his presence?" Keyes was perplexed at how such a hopeless fellow as Theophilus could be so lucky. To think that someone of such low status could curry favor with Chris was astounding. But alas, the poor wit of this useless man was evident. He remained seated even in Chris's presence. "Sir, I am acquainted with this Theophilus. He is notorious

“Where do I come from, you ask? With your level, you wouldn’t have the right to know.” Theophilus smirked, a sardonic smile playing on his lips: "Aren’t you planning to deal with me? Already admitting defeat so soon?” Wind’s countenance hardened: "Don’t be too smug just yet. You’ve made quite a mess. Even if I can’t handle you, there will always be someone who can!” With those words, Wind suddenly pivoted, his figure lithe and quick, disappearing several meters away in the blink of an eye, clearly intending to escape. Theophilus’ power was beyond his comprehension. If he were to confront him now, death would be the only outcome. Hence, it was better to retreat and report to Saeed, planning his next move later. A wise man wouldn’t risk his life without careful thought. After all, Saeed had many skilled men behind him, and there would be a way to deal with Theophilus eventually! “Planning to run after showing your face?” Theophilus shook his head, glancing at Hades. In a split seco
