A triumphant smile danced on Saeed's face as he escaped peril. Assisted by two bodyguards, he was escorted into the elevator, only to encounter Victor and Eugene in the lobby. "Mr. Walker, what kept you so preoccupied just now? We tried incessantly to reach you to no avail, so we had to come to your office. There's an urgent matter we need to discuss." Victor's voice was filled with reverence. An icy expression stretched across Saeed's face, and his mood was grim. He had no desire to engage in frivolous chatter with these two incompetents; they were nothing more than purchased dogs in his eyes. "Mr. Walker, it so happens that we met Louis, the deputy director of the Latin Corporation, due to our connection to you." Eugene implored Saeed, his face still visibly imprinted with fresh hand marks, an amusing sight: "However, he unexpectedly sent his men to beat us up today and threatened us to withdraw all our capital from the newly formed Miller Jewelers. We need your help to seek justi

"If you do well, I'll teach you two moves." Theophilus looked at Wind, clearly perceiving his inner thoughts. "I have a task for you." Theophilus stated with stern gravity. "Boss Jake, delegate as you please." Wind replied, respectfully bowing his head. "Your roots are planted in the Walker family of Astral Junction. You know the situation there better than anyone. I'm assigning you a team. Tomorrow, you must return to Astral Junction and hide in the shadows, tracking the activities of the Vuto Walker clan. Any sign of irregularity, you report to me immediately." Theophilus said with an intense seriousness. "So you're interested in meddling in the affairs of the Walker family?" Wind queried, an expression of surprise flickering across his face: "The Walker situation in Astral Junction is a deep and murky pond." The affairs of the Walker family were far from as straightforward as they appeared on the surface. Wind, himself a scion of the Walker family and also affiliated with the

The Panchaks are among the five prestigious families with an illustrious lineage akin to legends. "Modesty, modesty, I do not want to say too much about the Panchak family matters." Yuki Panchak replies, his voice resounding with an overbearing pride: "You can simply call me Director Panchak. I am in charge of the Panchak gemstone business in Radiant Harbor." "Indeed, Dulcie, apart from his family background, Young Panchak is also in charge of the gemstone business of the Panchak family in Radiant Harbor. In terms of gemstones, he can be your guide. If you want to expand your gemstone business in Radiant Harbor, you can't bypass someone of Young Panchak's stature." Feliciano advises in a fawning tone: "You should know that Young Panchak seldom dines with others. You should toast him a few times." "Mr. Panchak, nice to meet you." Dulcie greets him politely. Her first impression of this man could be better. Who stares at a woman so blatantly on their first meeting? Even his gaze is d

"You don't familiarity with Mr. Jake?" Isidore's eyes turned icy, a fiery rage burning inside him, wishing he could deal with Yuki on the spot. This foolish boy, unaware of Mr. Jake and yet daring to drink the wine he had presented for Mr. Jake? And acting so smug about it? Thinking about this, Isidore swiftly turned his gaze to Theophilus. He couldn’t bear to meet his eyes, his heart pounding in fear. He could only bow and plead: "Mr. Jake, I apologize for my poor hospitality and the lack of arrangements. Please forgive me!" "What! He, he is, he is..." The scene before him shocked Yuki out of his senses, his face displaying utter astonishment. How could a country bumpkin from Elysian Echo, an alleged useless son-in-law as per Feliciano, transform into Mr. Jake from Isidore's mouth? How could this be? It was unthinkable that someone like Isidore would call this freeloader Mr. Jake. "Director Tremblay, are you sure there isn't some mistake? This man came from Elysian Echo to Radi

"Indeed, Mr. Jake, for the past few months within the high society of Radiant Harbor, clan forces from all quarters have been plaguing me, seeking to wave the white flag of truce." Vincent recounted earnestly: "The Panchak, Walker, James households, along with the major powers in Radiant Harbor, even the grand figures of large corporations here are all vying to invite you to the negotiation table, to discuss partnerships with you." Ever since Theophilus arrived in Radiant Harbor and the peaceful settling of the Lee family, his fame has echoed across all of Empyria. He's refrained from showing himself since, maintaining an air of mystery on the outside. Power structures from all corners are vying to establish relations with the Alexander household, specifically with Wolfgang Alexander of Radiant Harbor. Tales about him have been spun into such grandiose legends that he's on the verge of becoming a mythological figure. Even without Wolfgang Alexander in Radiant Harbor, Radiant Harbor s
