**** ‘Curtly's body was trembling ever so slightly right now with excitement while her little heart began to pound like a drum in her chest, but Rex Magnus doesn’t notice and he wouldn’t even have cared had he noticed. He started the car and put it to drive mode, then he navigated around the gangsters that are still howling miserably on the ground and the van parked before them before he eventually hit the free highway again. The intense silence in the car resumed, and apart from the continuous thundering heartbeats, the only sound that was heard was that of the car's muffled engine, thanks to all the raised windows. Just as Rex Magnus reached a few distances away from where they had been double-crossed, he saw three speeding police vehicles approaching with their sirens on, then a strong frown appeared on his face. “Is this a coincidence or had someone reported us?” Just as Rex Magnus muttered this, a quiet and embarrassed voice sounded behind him. “I… I was the one that calle

****“Hey… hey, don’t you dare go too far, the board of directors isn’t what they like of you and I could speak anyhow to.” Ethan suddenly warned seriously, but Fiona doesn’t give a damn.She continued coldly, without looking moved at all. “For me to be an ordinary font, a cover for my cousin here?”Nobody responded to this, but their gazes already spoke volumes, so Fiona giggled softly before her expression reverted to its usual coldness.“You know what, you guys are free to return to your so-called board of directors and tell them that I, Fiona Johnson might accept and be many things, but I shall never be a puppet.”Finished spatting this, Fiona sat back again and booted the computer before her, showing that she was no longer interested in the ongoing discussion.As for the group of people standing before her, they’ve become dumbfounded to the core right now as Fiona's emotionless voice reverberates in their minds.It was only after a while do t

**** It was only until this time those the nineteen people became relieved. “You are the best, leader.” “I knew that leader would never let any harm befall us.” “Leader, we would support you for the rest of our lives.” Hearing all this, Ethan became excited inside. ‘That fool, she thought she was smart by trying to make herself the company's savior, she doesn’t know that she was just a big idiot. Does she think I too I’m excited about how deeply corrupted everybody is, of cause not, but how else would they given me their undying support?’ ……. While Rex Magnus has finally unknowingly gotten through the betrayals of his trusted ones thanks to the accident he caused May, Fiona was currently busy emitting thick coldness right now as she typed hysterically on the industrial calculator on her desk. Right now, stacks of hardcover books could also be seen scattered all over the desk, while her lunchbox which was at the side remained untouched.

****“Welcome became home, grandson, how was your day today.”“It was so bad grandmother. I almost died at work many times today.”Hearing this, the Old Matriarch directly showed a caring expression before she abruptly glared coldly at Fiona.“Sorry grandson. Of course, I understood what you must have gone through today, but don’t worry, I promise that everything would soon return to normal, don’t worry.”Ethan’s lips Immediately raised slightly, forming an arch when he heard his grandmother’s promise, but he quickly controlled it and thank her.It was at this moment the crowd behind Ethan finally stepped forward to greet the Old Matriarch.“Good evening, grandmother.”“Good evening, grandmother. Hope I met you well?”“Hello, grandmother….”“Grandmother, good….”“Grand….”With each person greeting her, the smile on the Old Matriarch widens, and in no time, she was already grinning from face to face.“Welcome back you

****“Let's go home,” Fiona murmured to Rex Magnus.Still smiling brightly, Rex Magnus nodded and happily led his wife away.As for the people left within the huge hall, they didn’t react even after twenty minutes from when Rex Magnus and Fiona were gone.Almost thirty minutes later, a person finally reacted, the Old Matriarch.For some reasons unknown to her, she abruptly felt like she has lost something, but she couldn’t pinpoint the thing.Shutting her eyes slightly for a few seconds, she sat on the comfy chair and heaved a deep sigh, then she picked up the file that was placed on the tabletop and started going through it.At first, she was only doing that reflexively, but as time goes by, her eyes began to widen, and her breathing started quickening.It wasn’t only this. Even her heart began to pound hysterically in her chest and she suddenly began to feel a heart attack, but she held it in.Just as she was about to finish going thro
