Upon saying that, Adrian looked around the place once again.The place evoked past memories for him. When he was younger, he would frequently visit Paraiso with Henry and played in the office while Henry worked.At the time, the employees of the company addressed him as Mr. Adrian. He thought about how everything was so wonderful when Henry was still alive.Yet, one could not always get what one wanted. Henry had already been gone for seven years without Adrian’s notice.He got down on one knee and grabbed a handful of earth from the ground. It felt as if every plant and every bit of earth was telling him “I hope you’re well” after not coming here for seven years.“It’s been seven years,” Adrian murmured to himself.Time seemed to have passed quickly yet slowly. Rue and Adaline had been living difficult lives, and so had he.Meanwhile, Adrian suddenly looked to the ground level of the building. A woman was standing there and watching him quietly from afar.He recognized the wom

Adrian turned around and his gaze landed on Cedric. “Your mouth is as foul as ever. Trust me when I say that I can beat your mouth into a pulp!”“Hah-hah-hah!” Cedric raised his head and burst out laughing.Paraiso was his territory. Why should he be afraid of a deadbeat when he was on home ground?Cedric chuckled and said, “F*ck you. You really are bold to speak to me in that manner in my company. Trust me when I say that I can make you incapable of walking out of here.“Adrian, do you still think that Paraiso belongs to your father? Hahaha! I’ll let you know that Paraiso isn’t affiliated with you in any way.”“Are you trying to get yourself killed by coming here?” said Jacob as he sneered.“Cut the crap. Let’s break his legs first before anything else,” scolded Cedric.Upon saying that, Cedric pulled out his phone and made a call, “Hello, security. Gather all the guards and send them to the ground level of the building at once. Remember to get everyone to come with a baton.“

Several of the company’s employees were alerted by the MPVs driving into the building.Soon after, the cars stopped and a large group of people swiftly got out of the cars. There were a total of more than a hundred people.These people worked for the Dean family.They surrounded the security guards of Cedric’s company upon their arrival.At this very moment, Cedric was stunned.Jacob’s jaw dropped and he appeared to be caught in a daze.It was apparent that they were startled by the group of people who suddenly showed up.“Wh-What the heck is going on?” Cedric was stunned.Meanwhile, his arrogant, wildly conceited mannerism vanished and in its place was astoundment.Cedric began to panic. He had not expected so many people would suddenly show up. And he was not the only panic-stricken one.The company security guards dropped their batons in succession. They behaved as if they were not part of the situation.Noticing that the guards began to back away, Cedric panicked.“A-Ad

Mya nodded upon hearing this. She waved her hand and said, “Take them and send them to the Xanders's home.”“Yes, ma’am!”Mya’s subordinates dragged them into the car.After handling Cedric and Jacob, Adrian left Paraiso.***Meanwhile, Harold, Leonard, Wilfred, and the other Xanders were having a meeting at home.Riley was present as well. The main content of the meeting was regarding her decision to resign from the family business. Harold was furious regarding this matter.Harold said, “Riley, you’re a woman of our family so it’s only right for you to work for the family business. Yet, you’re telling me that you wish to resign?“The Xanders have raised you for so many years. Are our efforts for nothing?”Harold had always practiced patriarchy, and his favorite grandsons were Cedric and Jacob. He treated Riley the same as Adaline and refused to regard her as his grandsons’ equal.Meanwhile, Leonard said, “Riley, your grandfather is right. You’re a Xander. Where else will you

“What?”Harold’s expression changed drastically upon hearing Mya’s words.‘Adrian did this?’ Harold’s eyes widened in surprise while Leonard and Wilfred were furious.Leonard roared, “Father, how dare Adrian beat up Cedric and Jacob to this extent! He’s insolent!”“I’ll kill him!” Wilfred roared, his eyes bloodshot.The Xanders had not expected Adrian to beat up Cedric and Jacob till their current state. They were furious.Harold inhaled a deep breath and said, “This is unforgivable. How dare Adrian do this. I will never let him off.”He clenched his fist tightly.Cedric and Jacob were his two favorite grandchildren and he was heartbroken to see their broken legs.“What’s your relationship with Adrian? Do you think that you can still walk away from here after hurting my grandsons?” Harold looked toward Mya and said in rage.“B*tch, you work for Adrian and you’ve come to our house. You’re doomed!” Leonard roared angrily as he pointed at Mya.“Leonard, call someone. Quick,” sa

“M-Ms. Mya, may I know how you’re related to Adrian? Why would you want to help him?” Harold nervously asked as he looked at Mya.Mya loosened her hair and replied, “I’ll say it again. If you don’t do as Adrian said within the given time, I’ll personally come to Xander Manor and end every single person here.”Mya turned around and left the manor, leaving Harold to fall limp into his sofa.Leonard, Wilfred, and the rest were confused and panicking.“What’s the matter, Father? Who was that woman? Why do you seem so afraid of her?”“Who is she?“Who else could she be? She’s Jason Dean’s granddaughter. I just can’t figure out how Adrian had gotten her to help him!” Harold said in shock.Everyone was stunned when they heard this. They, of course, know who Jason Dean was.The Deans were a top-tier family in Southrive, so much so that the Xander household could not compare to them.Still stunned, Leonard asked, “Are you sure, Father? How could that deadbeat possibly be acquainted wit

Samantha held the document that contained her plans in her hands and had been sitting at the cafe for an hour.Despite how anxious she felt, she was in a cheery mood because when she called Mandy earlier, Mandy agreed to meet up without a moment’s hesitation.This came as a huge surprise to Samantha.After an hour, a luxurious car pulled up outside the cafe. Through the window, Samantha could see Mandy stepping out of the car and walking toward her.“Mandy, over here,” Samantha called out happily the moment she saw Mandy, who greeted her with equal enthusiasm.“What are you doing here so early?”Samantha smiled. She wanted to show her sincerity and how happy she was that Mandy agreed to meet her, so she decided to be here earlier.She called for the waiter and ordered two cups of coffee.“I’m really sorry for troubling you to take some time off your busy schedule to meet with me.”“No problem. I don’t have much on my plate. By the way, Sam, I heard your grandmother kicked you

To Mandy’s surprise, despite Samantha’s former career in the fashion industry, she was not planning to open up another fashion company.Instead, Samantha wanted to form a pharmaceutical company.“I’m curious, Sam. Bailar has been in the fashion industry for so many years, so why do you wish to form a pharmaceutical company instead?” Mandy looked at Samantha in confusion.“To tell you the truth…”Mandy looked at Samantha with a puzzled expression.“While my grandfather was alive, he opened a company in partnership with Henry Xander, my grandfather-in-law. At the time, my grandfather thought pharmaceutics held great potential, which was why I majored in it for my degree.“On top of that, Paraiso is also a pharmaceutical company, and my husband would like to complete the dream his father failed to achieve.“My friend was the one who chose what industry Bailar was going to be involved in and I didn’t have a say, but I do now.”Samantha had always been rather knowledgeable in pharma

He could tell from her voice that Samantha most likely had a successful meeting with Mandy.He smiled and said, “I’m on my way home. How did it go? Did you have a good meeting?”“Yes! Mandy agreed to invest seven million and three hundred thousand dollars to open up the new company. On top of that, she’ll be giving me a few technical people to help me build it up.“I’m on my way home too, I can’t wait to see you!” Samantha’s voice was trembling at that point.She would never have had the courage to do any of this without Adrian. He’s the one who gave her the support she needed to

“Really?!” Rue asked in shock.Samantha nodded vigorously. “Yes, and it’s all thanks to Adrian! I wouldn’t have had the courage to meet Mandy if not for him.”Rue was all smiles at this point. “Your father would always say that there’s always something good to be found in losses, and I’ve always believed that. I’m glad to see you two are in a good place in your relationship now.“By the way, Ada called. She’s doing really well on campus, her classmates are being nice to her, and she’s being well taken care of. In fact, she was awarded a scholarship.”Hearing this, Samantha said, “Ada’s a good girl, plus she’s really strong academically. It’s no surprise the university is giving her special treatment. I’m happy she’s doing well.”Rue nodded and said, “I happened to have bought some fresh ingredients earlier, so I’ll go cook you two something nice to eat right now. You two go ahead and take your time.”***While Rue headed to the kitchen, Samantha returned to her room. She had no
