That was the Medal of Honor."This is the Medal of Honor, specially awarded to you by the Military Headquarters of Venzor," Keith said respectfully, handing it to Xayne.Xayne looked puzzled, wondering what Linford meant. Nevertheless, Xayne accepted it.Keith then turned his friendly gaze toward Serena and asked, "Ms. Swift, is there anything else I can assist you with?"Serena felt a chill run through her and glanced nervously at Eric."Captain Moss, I appreciate your kindness. However, I feel that my abilities are lacking. Could you allow Sophia to participate in this project?" Serena asked.Serena's genuine concern was evident in her request, and it made Sophia feel uneasy, as if she were being pitied. But for now, Sophia remained silent, unable to muster a response.Keith furrowed his brow and replied, "I have no objections. Since you're the person-in-charge of this project, you can bring in whomever you'd like."Upon hearing this, Tim and Vivian breathed a sigh of relief,

Mason's hands were casually tucked into his pockets as he spoke with a provocative tone. "No big deal, but it seems the tides have turned, huh? Who would have thought that the heir of the Xavier family would end up as a loser, forced to live in the Swift residence? It's truly pathetic. So, are you here to buy something? Why didn't you tell me? This entire floor is managed by my family's Keniston Enterprise. If you can mimic a few dog barks right now, I'll give you whatever you want today. How about that? It's a pretty sweet deal, don't you think?"A mischievous grin formed at the corner of Mason's mouth as he vividly recalled the past, when he once needed Xayne's help to untangle his own mess, and Xayne had demanded that he beg. Now, it was Mason's turn to seek revenge.Xayne's eyebrows furrowed in response. "Mason, I can't believe that after all these years, you haven't changed a bit. You still make me sick." With those words, Xayne turned around, ready to leave without wasting any

Mason was dumbfounded. He dropped to his knees, gripping his head, trembling. Thoughts raced through his mind. 'What's happening? Why did those special forces soldiers suddenly storm in? Is this some kind of drill?'Amidst the astonished gazes of Mason and everyone else, a captain, dressed in a black combat uniform, approached Xayne. He stood at attention and saluted, declaring loudly, "Mr. Xavier, the situation is under control. Please give your instructions!"In that moment, Mason gasped in disbelief, his eyes wide, unable to comprehend what he was seeing. He thought to himself, 'Did Xayne bring these special forces soldiers here? That can't be possible! Isn't he just a loser living off other people's generosity?'Xayne nodded calmly and took a step forward, approaching the visibly flustered Mason. His voice was cold, and his gaze lowered. "Do you still think you have any leverage to make me spare you?" he asked.Mason panicked, completely losing his composure. He had never been

Xayne replied casually, "I want to see Chuck Lavy."The receptionist paused, then asked, "Do you have an appointment?"Xayne shook his head.Still smiling, the receptionist said, "I'm sorry, sir, but Mr. Lavy is currently in a meeting and can't meet anyone without an appointment."Xayne raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly, "Well, why don't you give him a call and let him know that Xayne Xavier is looking for him?"The receptionist was taken aback. If it were someone else, she might have called security. However, the man standing before her seemed confident and righteous. He had a tall and handsome figure, and his companion behind him emitted a chilling aura."Please wait a moment," the receptionist said, dialing a number. Speaking softly into the phone, she said, "Hello, could you connect me to the Chairman's office? There's a gentleman named Xayne Xavier here who wants to meet Mr. Lavy."Before she could finish, a middle-aged man in a gray suit walked through the door, his

"Did he really request an armored squadron and an engineering squadron? Is he out of his mind?"The few receptionists who had cowered to the side earlier had eyes brimming with scornful amusement as they witnessed Xayne being surrounded. One of them quipped, "This guy must be crazy! Who does he think he is?"Another chimed in, "He's just a filthy pauper! He nearly got Maddy fired just now!"A third person added, "Quick, snap a picture and share it online! This kind of behavior from a pauper is bound to generate tons of likes!"Some of the regular employees joined the gathering, their faces adorned with mischievous grins.Amidst the crowd, two familiar figures emerged—Ethan and Sophia—who had just arrived at the scene."Is that Xayne Xavier over there? What's he doing here?" Ethan asked, keeping his distance.Sophia glanced briefly and replied, her voice filled with resentment, "What's there to see in a loser like him? He probably offended someone! He deserves to be humiliated! L
