Serena forced a smile, saying, "Blair, long time no see."Blair flaunted her luxurious hair while showcasing her ten-carat diamond ring. She sneered mockingly and said, “Yes, it’s been a while, but I’d rather not see you. Having someone like you in my presence doesn’t align with my status. I fear people will mock me for having such poor relatives riding here on a beat-up scooter.”Serena frowned and clenched her fists, knowing trouble was brewing. She wanted to turn and leave, but Xayne held her hand and smiled tenderly.Meanwhile, Coco pouted at Blair and exclaimed, “You can’t talk about my mommy like that! We’re not poor. Daddy said those who keep talking about the poor are the real poor ones.”Blair glared at Coco and pointed at her. “Who do you think you are, little brat? How dare you speak to me that way?”Coco was fearless as she raised her head and declared, “I’m not a little brat! I’m Coco Xavier. My mom and dad have names, too. You’re the big brat!”“Coco, don’t speak to

“Haha! My future son-in-law is a security analyst. He must know what he’s talking about. Just follow his instructions.” Nigel laughed and then looked at Xayne disdainfully. “Some can live off others but shouldn’t meddle in things they don’t understand. They’ll just make a fool of themselves.”Everyone turned to Xayne scornfully. Monica mocked, “Pfft, why are you pretending to know so much? Do you honestly think that stock will rise just because you said so?”Blair smirked and taunted, “Serena, your husband is being ridiculous. Does he think he’s the one controlling the stocks?”Xayne remained indifferent, but Violet and Tony felt humiliated.Violet rebuked, “Xayne, can you keep quiet if you don’t know what’s going on? Do you have fun embarrassing us? You have no right to speak here. I wish I could just kick you out.”Tony looked awkward as he chuckled and said, “Nigel, Sebastian, I’m sorry you had to see this.”Xayne helplessly shook his head and texted Chuck.…Chuck was handl

The following morning, Serena visited the factory to check on the material production. Surprisingly, she only saw around eight workers out of her thirty initial workers. Everyone looked anxious, especially the leaders.Serena hurried to the pacing supervisors and asked, “What’s going on? Where are the others?”Eugene, the person in charge, said, “Ms. Serena, you’re finally here. Something terrible happened.”Serena noticed the workers’ unpleasant expressions. She asked, “Take your time and explain what happened, Eugene.”Eugene expressed his anger, “They all left! Just a few of us supervisors and some veteran workers remain.”“Where did the rest of them go?” Serena was worried and puzzled.“They resigned,” Eugene spoke helplessly, “It’s my fault for not keeping an eye on them. They wouldn’t have resigned if it weren’t for those jerks.”Serena started to panic at the strange situation. “Why would they resign? We just hired them with high salaries.”Eugene explained, “Supervisors

When Xayne hung up, Chuck tremblingly put down his phone. After collecting himself, he dialed Chance’s number.When the call connected, a hearty laughter came from the other end, “Hahaha! What’s up, Chuck? Why are you calling me so early in the morning?”Chuck was not in the mood to laugh. Instead, he said gravely, “What’s wrong with you, Chance?! Why did you sabotage Mr. Xayne’s factory? Do you realize the disaster you’ve caused this time?”“Mr. Xayne’s factory?!” Chance shivered and stopped walking in the nearby park. He nervously asked, “Don’t scare me, Chuck. When did I sabotage his factory? I haven’t been to the association these past few days.”Chuck was puzzled, saying, “You what?”Chance anxiously said, “I just returned from a business trip out of town. I didn’t have the time to return to the association. What’s going on?”Chuck frowned and responded, “Regardless, Mr. Xayne is furious. He wants you to explain yourself to him in twenty minutes. He’s on his way to the assoc

A knock on the door sounded, and a middle-aged man said, “Come in.”Serena opened the door and saw Damon making tea inside the office. She got straight to the point, “Hello, Mr. Damon. My name is Serena, and I’m here about Skylark Factory.”Damon held two teacups and placed them on the table. He gestured toward them and said, “These are freshly brewed, Ms. Serena. Would you like to try one?”Serena recalled what happened with Fredrick last time and decided not to drink it. She smiled, saying, “Thank you, but I’m not thirsty.”Damon did not insist and took a few sips himself. He smiled and said, “I know why you’re here, Ms. Serena. Unfortunately, there’s little I can do about Skylark Factory. Just follow the document’s instructions and tidy up your work environment and equipment.”Serena felt a sense of urgency. “The issues mentioned in the document aren’t—”Damon smiled and interjected, “You’re still too you, Ms. Serena. Go back and carefully read the document. We’ll lift the res
