The importance of Michael to the Innova Group couldn't be overstated. His compensation and benefits within the company were well deserved. For a company to grow and expand globally, this was a crucial step, and Michael was key to this transition for the Innova Group.His performance was beyond commendable—it was exemplary.He had elevated the Innova Group to a level where it stood almost shoulder-to-shoulder with the three major international manufacturers.Given such contributions, no one could possibly criticize him. No one else could have achieved what he had. Although he might have leveraged the Crimson Order, that was precisely his strength and value to the company.-As New Year's approached, the distribution of dividends concluded swiftly.With the school break, Lora found herself with more free time. Despite the cold weather, she frequently visited the Innova Group.Outsiders might mistakenly think she was Eric's mistress. After all, Eric epitomized the successful and we

After working hard and being busy all year round, everyone looked forward to those few days of celebration. They were not allowed to set off fireworks? Even Eric found it hard to believe."Who would have thought?" Brook said, "Places selling fireworks are being patrolled, and people are too scared to display them. Even the pyrotechnician who used to come to our house a few years ago is no longer in Salt City."The directive is out—no fireworks are allowed anywhere in the province. If caught, there's a fine. They say it's to prevent air pollution. I really don't know what those officials and experts are thinking!"Sylvia, annoyed, said, "Brook! Have you forgotten? Eric is still… holding an official position, isn't he? By criticizing the officials, aren’t you also criticizing him?"Brook quickly waved his hand. "It's different! Even though my brother-in-law is an official, he doesn't get involved in those matters!"Eric nodded and smiled, saying, "Brother-in-law, you can't say tha

Eric hadn't finished speaking yet. He looked at the reservoir and said, "There is little vegetation within the city. To develop the economy, some pollution is inevitable. But in a rural place like this, setting off fireworks wouldn't cause significant pollution, even if you burned down this entire mountain."What I really want to know is whether you're banning fireworks because of air pollution or because it's difficult to manage. Is that why you issued such a strict regulation?"Howard was feeling a bit overwhelmed. He quickly replied, "Mr. Johnson, we'll issue an apology and lift the ban. Will that be acceptable?"He thought this would resolve the issue completely. However, Eric shook his head. "Mr. Kent, you still don't understand my point."Bringing you both out here just to talk about fireworks would be a waste of time. What I'm saying is that no matter how busy you are, you need to get out more and see what people actually want. Before implementing any regulation, you should

Sylvia sighed. "Mom, don't worry, okay? Eric isn't that kind of person!"Amelia shot another glare at Sylvia before finally leaving.-After dinner, Sylvia and Eric walked out hand in hand.Brook put down his utensils. "Mom, you don't need to worry so much. Vee and her husband have a great relationship. You've been watching too many soap operas lately. In real life, there aren't that many people who are so fickle."Connor nodded quickly. "Brook is right. There aren't that many fickle people. Men are usually very loyal."As soon as he finished speaking, Queenie glared at him. "Loyal, you say? You men always prefer 18-year-olds!"Connor immediately shut his mouth, not daring to say another word.Amelia set down her utensils. "Queenie, Misty, Seraphine, all of you listen up. If any of the three brothers dare to be unfaithful, beat them senseless. If they even touch a hair on your heads, I'll deal with them myself!"The three brothers all shrank their necks. It was terrifying!Er

In recent years, Kayden had fallen on hard times. Upon entering Richard’s home, he sat by the fireplace and looked at Gavin. "Cuz, are you still associating with them? Do you remember how much trouble their family has caused us over the years?"If it weren’t for them, I wouldn’t have spent years in prison, and my second-hand car business wouldn’t have gone under."His father, Jared, had kept a low profile, avoiding trouble. But Kayden and Ruby were restless and unable to stay out of trouble."Exactly!" Delilah chimed in. "Last time, that little bastard scared me half to death. Now, whenever it rains, my back aches! It’s all his fault!"Previously, when she tried to hit Blake’s chicken, she missed and was startled by Eric’s shout, causing her to nearly fall to her death in her panic."Mom, Kayden, the past is the past. At worst, we can just live our lives behind closed doors and not provoke them," Gavin said and sat down. "People say everyone is equal, but the truth is, there are
