Cash was unique—its purchasing power would only gradually depreciate with inflation, and this process unfolded slowly.Eric sighed and remarked, "The Hernandezes are incredibly wealthy, yet they don't seem to make any wealthy lists."Not only the Hernandezes but also influential families like the McClains and the Watsons—Eric hadn't seen either of them on such lists. Given the substantial assets of these families, they should undoubtedly qualify.Sylvia smiled and added, "The billionaires on the list are undoubtedly wealthy, but many invisible billionaires never make the cut."The so-called list might just be a goal for ordinary people to aspire to."These words held insight. Numerous wealthy individuals surpassed those on the list but disdained the recognition. The list was entirely meaningless for families like the McClains and the Watsons. They could even control those who made it if they desired.Despite Eric's sudden wealth, he remained indifferent. At this level, money migh

In light of this, the Innova Group had established its after-sales service department. Within the original team, many had ascended to management positions, enjoying elevated salaries. Ambition wasn't their primary drive—rather, they sought compensation equivalent to their skills, reflecting their true value.At the same time, Innova Tech undertook installing and debugging the Innova Group's equipment. While the marketing department spearheaded exploration into overseas markets, both Innova Tech and the after-sales department played equally vital roles. Maintaining the existing structure would facilitate the Innova Group's expansion into overseas markets.Sylvia found herself occupied to the point where morning affections with Eric took a backseat. Her determination was fixed on making the Innova Group a powerhouse, challenging the monopoly of the top three international giants.Entrepreneurship was arduous, but sustaining success proved even more challenging.Undeniably, the Inno

Sylvia remained silent, steadily downing the ten glasses. However, after a moment, dizziness set in. Typically, these ten glasses would be a breeze for her, but she drank too hastily today. Her inherent beauty was already striking, and now, her rosy cheeks added an extra allure."Mr. House, I've had ten glasses of wine. Shouldn't you fulfill your promise now?" she asked.Frankie smiled faintly, gesturing to two companions who accompanied him."You've indeed finished my ten glasses, but you haven't finished theirs yet!" he pointed out.Sylvia's expression changed.Even Mell couldn't bear it and remarked, "Mr. House, this is a bit much. Why didn't you clarify before drinking?"Frankie shrugged. "You didn't ask..."Mell was annoyed.Frankie continued pouring the wine, saying, "Ms. Williams, you've had ten glasses. What's wrong with another ten? Considering the Innova Group's current revenue, these drinks could bring in more money. Doesn't Ms. Williams want that?""Mr. House, take

When they reached Eric's office, news of the issue had already spread throughout the company.Andy and Eric set out to find Sylvia, both puzzled by the sudden appearance of tax authorities and the suggestion of suspending operations."There shouldn't be any problems with our finances!" Andy exclaimed. "Even if there are minor issues, it shouldn't lead to a suspension. What's going on? Is someone retaliating against us?"Eric replied, "It's a long story. But no matter what, we can't afford a suspension. Andy, let's check the finance department first. Sylvia, you wait here with Mell."They hurried to the finance department, where the manager was sweating with anxiety."Mr. Hall, what's going on?" Andy asked.The manager wiped his forehead and replied, "I don't know either. They're still investigating, but they mentioned the possibility of suspending operations!"Feeling outraged, Andy pressed on, "It's been almost a day since you started investigating. If you want us to suspend op

Irvin poured a glass of wine for Elijah, who promptly declined, "Irvin, I have to work overtime later, so I won't drink."Taking a sip of wine, Josh broached the topic directly. "Elijah, I heard that some of your departments are involved in activities that shouldn't see the light of day. Have you heard anything about it?"Upon hearing the phrase "activities that shouldn't see the light of day", Elijah's expression sank. It was likely more serious than covert activities since Josh had heard about it.Elijah felt awkward. "I'm sorry, Mr. Sonnex. I have no information about it. Can you tell me?"Josh gestured toward Eric and Sylvia. "I'm sure you're familiar with Sylvia. This man here is Eric, Henry's son-in-law and a good friend of mine."Elijah was taken aback and glanced at Eric a few more times.Josh continued. "Apart from that, Eric is also the founder and CIO of the Innova Group. Of course, these are nothing compared to his other identity, which is even more noteworthy!"Elij
