Soon, Xayne received information about William. The foreign business team had planned to invest in a comprehensive commercial complex in Shalholm. It had an initial estimated investment of seven hundred million dollars.Such a substantial investment would attract many wealthy local families to seek cooperation with them. It seemed Tim’s visit earlier was related to this matter. After some thought, Xayne decided to let Serena give it a try."Honey, there's a foreign business team planning to invest in Shalholm. You should talk to them." Xayne entered the living room and suggested it to Serena, who was still reading."A foreign business team?" Serena raised her brows, looking skeptical. “I’ve never dealt with foreign investment teams before. Besides, I don’t think I can secure such a significant investment. I don’t even have a job now. Who will I represent in the negotiation?”Xayne smiled. “Didn’t we discuss this earlier? You can be your own boss and represent your company.”“My co

When Serena turned, she saw Tim and Sophia approaching with unfriendly expressions. Still, she addressed them out of politeness, “Uncle Tim, is there something you need?”Tim’s expression darkened as he glanced at Evelyn, asking, “What are you doing here, Serena?”“We’re here to discuss business, of course,” Evelyn interjected with a hint of disdain. She had learned about her boss’s past and various rumors regarding the Swifts. She harbored profound resentment toward the family.Sophia questioned Serena, “What kind of business are you here for? Aren’t you unemployed?”“Hmph, Ms. Serena has started her own company.” Evelyn rolled her eyes. She despised Sophia, who seemed to enjoy bossing people around.Sophia and Tim were stunned and exclaimed in unison, “You did what?!”Tim quickly realized what was happening and interrogated Serena, “So that’s what you’ve been up to. Is that why you refused to return to us? It seems you’ve been scheming against us. Are you here to negotiate with

The entire venue fell silent. Nearly a hundred people had their eyes on Serena. They had been waiting here for a whole day, and yet they hadn't seen Mr. William's assistant. However, the foreigner invited a woman to discuss matters with William in such a respectful manner.It was simply unbelievable."Damn! Who's that woman? Mr. William actually personally invited her for a discussion?""I vaguely remember her. She seems to be from the Swift family.""Serena! I know her. She's the daughter of the second son of the Swift family. Isn't Tim there too? They are here as well."With the discussions of the crowd, Serena's identity was revealed, leaving everyone astonished. Tim and Sophia's expressions were constantly changing.'What's going on? Did Mr. William actually invite Serena to go up? What just happened?'Serena was bewildered. She looked at the foreigner in front of her with suspicion and asked, "Are you calling me?"The foreigner politely replied, "Yes, Ms. Serena, it's you.

Sophia was stunned and frustrated. "Dad—""Kneel!" Tim shouted.Sophia reluctantly knelt and bowed. She then apologized to Serena and Xayne, "I'm sorry. I was wrong just now. I apologize to both of you."Standing aside, Tim immediately put on a smiling face and said, "Xayne, are you satisfied now? My daughter has already apologized."Xayne nodded indifferently and directly led Serena away.Behind them, Tim hastily called out, "Xayne, Serena, I'll visit you tomorrow to discuss collaboration!"Until Xayne and Serena were far away, Tim's face quickly darkened.Sophia also quickly stood up, angrily shouting, "Dad, why did you make me kneel? It's so embarrassing! She's just a lowlife. Why should I?"Tim turned his head, glaring at her coldly. "Do you think she's still the old Serena? Can't you see that she no longer acknowledges our family or even me as her uncle? Let's go home. We'll tell Dad about this."He got into the car and returned with Sophia.At that moment, Eric was sitt

Serena had no choice but to nod and agree, "Okay, Grandpa, I promise you."With that, Eric finally breathed a sigh of relief.Tim stood behind, wearing a sly smile on his face.Later, after leaving the hospital room, Serena and Xayne walked out.Tim caught up, shouting, "Serena, you must make sure to fulfill Grandpa's request regarding this collaboration—"Serena interrupted, "Uncle, come to my company tomorrow for discussions.""Sure, sure, sure." Tim was all smiles, not bothering Serena any longer.As they left the hospital, Violet and Royce hurriedly caught up, calling out, "Serena, wait!""Mom, what's the matter?" Serena didn't look too happy."Serena, what else could it be? You've started a new company and signed a cooperation agreement with some foreigner, right? I heard it's a 700-million-dollar investment. "Look, your brother has nothing much to do in the company lately, and your uncle is constantly sidelining him. How about letting him work at your company? Just g
