Daniel was in shambles because he did not expect his father, who had been away on business, to return so suddenly. “D-Dad, I didn’t know. My employees informed me that the King of the North wanted to terminate Stephanie’s contract. She’s the artist we heavily invested in.“The company will lose several billion dollars if we do that. As you know, Stephanie has some pretty influential backers. S-So, I…” Before Daniel could finish speaking, Anakin slapped him.Anakin was frustrated as he pointed at his son and shouted, “You bastard! I looked into Stephanie. She behaves like an idiot who looks down on everyone. One of her men even pushed the King of the North’s daughter!“Instead of apologizing, she instigated her fans and threatened the King of the North, vowing to expose him online. Do you understand what she’s gotten herself into? Can Stephanie get away with treating the King of the North like that?“The four elders of Drakonia recognize his daughter as a princess. Can you comprehen

Xayne was at a loss as he did not expect Serena to show up yet. He could only smile under Serena’s suspicious scrutiny. After a while, he explained, “No, I used to work for the King of the North.”Then he embraced his daughter and said, “Let’s send Coco to a nearby hospital first.”Only after that did Serena notice the swelling on Coco’s forehead. The little one looked distressed, and her eyes were red from crying."Okay, let's go."Coco, lying in Xayne’s arms, looked at her mother and threw herself into Serena's arms. "Mommy! It hurts!"Serena was heartbroken seeing her daughter like this. The family of three took a cab to a nearby hospital, and Ace later arrived at the shopping mall to handle the rest of the mess.Meanwhile, Donovan’s men surrounded Thomas’s office. Thomas and his executives kneeled on the ground, trembling as they wiped the sweat off their foreheads. Ace’s fierce demeanor sent shivers down their spines.Thomas was now the mall’s former chairman and dared not

Serena looked at Xayne skeptically and frowned. "What are you implying?"Xayne took the contract from Serena and glanced over it. He helplessly sighed, saying, "It seems fine, but Royce is the issue. He's always been a money-minded guy. Do you honestly think someone like him would get conned?"Serena's frown deepened. Then she stood up, saying with a puzzled expression, "I know what you're thinking, but Royce is still my brother. If I don't help him, who will? I can't just watch Grandpa kick him out of the family, right?"Xayne understood Serena's kind nature and reluctance to let go of the Swift family. He shook his head and said, "Let me handle this matter." "You?" Serena frowned at Xayne. She could not figure out how Xayne could consistently solve complex problems, even though he seemingly had nothing. Moreover, she felt a connection to these problems but could not find any evidence.Xayne said smilingly, “I have some connections in Shalholm. I can look into it for you.”Sere

Everyone fell silent when they heard Adrian’s words. The guests exchanged uncertain glances and even murmured under their breaths."Is he planning to obliterate Xayne Xavier and the Swifts once and for all?""Heh, it seems Xayne and the Swifts are goners. They're doomed since they offended a Lieutenant.""Oh no. We still have collaborations with the Swifts. I must inform our people to terminate all partnerships with them."Those in the hall dealing with the Swifts called their companies and urgently requested to sever all ties with them. These people had dozens of enterprises and came from prominent families. Many panicked as they witnessed this scene.After all, Adrian had vowed to eliminate the Swifts. Such terrifying power and methods meant that the Lennings would become one of Shalholm's foremost families in the future. Adrian stood with his head held high while facing the guests’ discussions.He continued, "When I become Lieutenant next month, I'll make Xayne kneel before my

The entire room laughed when they heard Xayne’s words.“What did you say? Do you think the Lennings are simpletons?”“You’re overestimating yourself, you bastard. Can you even handle this issue alone?”“You’re talking about the Lennings and the soon-to-be Lieutenant Adrian. You’re ridiculous if you think you rely on your reclaimed status and Linford to intervene for you. Do you honestly believe Lieutenant Haith would offend Adrian for you?”The Swift family members berated Xayne, their hatred for him boiling over. They thought he was spewing nonsense.Sophia crossed her arms and smirked. “Oh, are you saying Adrian is insignificant? What position do you hold, Xayne? Are you a Lieutenant or a General? What about a Commander? Are you the Commander of East Yoskea or the Northern Plains?”Tim laughed and remarked sarcastically, “Hahaha! You must be kidding, Sophia. How can he be the Commander of the Northern Plains? I’d be the first to bow and apologize if he were.”Meanwhile, Tony a
