‘Supreme Commander? Isn't Xayne just a worthless in-law of the Swift family?'Alec stopped overthinking it. He sneered sinisterly and said, “I see how it is. You’re arrogant and have a death wish. Fine, I’ll grant it to you!”He entered the courtyard and stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Xayne with disdain, saying, “I’ll give you ten moves. I’ll tell you who hired me if you can touch me within those ten moves.”Alec’s choice of words was conceited. Little did he know, no one would dare challenge the Northern Plains’ Supreme Commander. Xayne was just a freeloader in Alec’s eyes. Alec had looked into Xayne’s identity long ago, so he was unafraid.The only thing that puzzled Alec was Deuce’s presence. Still, Alec did not care. As he pondered how to torment Xayne next, the latter casually said, “There’s no need for that. If you can defeat me in one move, you can kill or maim as you please.”Alec grimaced when he heard that. He then shouted, “You’re too much, punk! I’ve

Xayne returned to the marketing department, where Filly casually watched a movie on his phone. Xayne then started scrolling through social media on his phone. Suddenly, everyone in the department stood at attention and looked toward the entrance solemnly.Eight men in black suits entered in two rows of four while Ariana accompanied a middle-aged man for an inspection of the marketing department. The man looked to be in his fifties and had the demeanor of a business tycoon.“What a grand entrance, huh?” Filly muttered a few words to Xayne, “He’s Riley Strick, the chairman of Osbo Pharmaceuticals. Rumor has it he’s here to discuss a cooperation with the Ghazali Corporation.”Xayne glanced indifferently at Riley and quickly sent a message to Chuck. He then learned everything about Riley. The man had a net worth of seven hundred million dollars and was even wealthier than Ariana.Xayne muttered, “Such a big shot personally discussing cooperation here doesn’t feel right.”He realized n

At that moment, a disinterested voice sounded at the door. “If Osbo Pharmaceuticals wishes to withdraw its investment, so be it. Ghazali Corporation doesn’t need charity. We can handle the research and sales just fine without Osbo.”When Xayne entered, everyone looked at him with darkened expressions. Ariana was stunned before glaring at him, asking, “Xayne, who let you in? Leave!”Roxanne looked at Xayne suspiciously, thinking it was pretty bold of him to interrupt. After all, the cooperation meant everything to Ghazali Corporation.Riley stood up and sneered at Xayne. “Are you Xayne?”Xayne looked puzzled. “Do you know me?”Riley suppressed his anger and smiled faintly. “Curtis told me about you. He mentioned Ms. Ariana having an excellent bodyguard. It’s nice to meet you.”Xayne responded with a faint smile while Ariana urgently stepped forward and said, “Let me escort you out, Mr. Riley.”“Sure, thank you, Ms. Ariana.” He then gazed coldly at Xayne and left the conference ro

Warren pointed at Xayne and shouted, "How dare you slap her! Do you know who she is?""I do. She's your side piece," Xayne replied nonchalantly.Warren reddened with anger and motioned to slap Xayne. However, he was no match for Xayne. The latter twisted his arm and pinned him to the wall.Warren struggled. “Let go! I’m the deputy CEO, damn it! I’ll fire you if you hurt me!”Xayne spat, “Stop using your position to oppress others and threaten to fire them. I’ve heard that countless times, yet I’m still here.”Warren grimaced in anger as he shouted, “All right, let’s see how you plan to explain this to Ariana!”Xayne detested people threatening him. He tightened his grip and caused Warren to howl in pain, scaring Eloise and the two bodyguards away. Eloise screamed and caused a commotion in the entire lobby, “Security, help! Assault!”Johnny rushed over with several security guards. When they arrived, they saw Xayne pressing Warren against the wall. He shouted at Johnny, “What the

"Okay, see you at the restaurant at the corner of Byres Road."Eloise hung up the phone and gave Warren a thumbs-up.Warren smiled and put his arm around Eloise's waist. He kissed her cheek and said, "Good job, honey."...Xayne swaggered back to the marketing department from the security room. As soon as he entered, he bumped into Laila. Her ample curves made him a little embarrassed. Xayne quickly asked, “Are you okay?”Laila took a few steps back as she blushed. She combed her hair behind her ear and nodded, saying, "I'm fine."Immediately after, she ran past Xayne. He helplessly shook his head as she ran away.Around four in the evening, a stream of people left the conference room. As they passed the marketing department, Xayne noticed how anxious, confused, and angry everyone looked.Filly poked his arm and asked, “Xayne, I heard Osbo Pharmaceuticals is withdrawing its investments. Is that true?”Xayne rolled his eyes and asked, “Where’d you hear that from?”Filly looked
