The head of production immediately panicked when he saw the closed door of the house. Zofia’s personal driver was equally frantic.Both of them, for some reason, sought refuge behind Christian, as if they knew that Christian had high martial arts skills and could protect them.However, despite having a bad feeling, Christian tried to remain calm because the people inside were Kowalska factory security personnel.“Where’s Mr. Harold? Where are the Pommes Frites samples and the stolen secret ingredients?” Christian asked.No one answered Christian’s question. All the security personnel remained silent.Christian observed the security personnel, who had unusual expressions on their faces. This only intensified Christian’s unease.What was really going on?Shortly after, a man emerged from behind the house with a smug expression.“I heard someone was looking for me earlier. Who is he?” Harold asked with an annoying look on his face.The head of security nodded towards Christian and said,

If it’s true that the samples and secret materials are still missing, it would be extremely dangerous, both for this project and ChrisCrafter Ltd..If the person who got hold of the secret material can figure out the composition of Pommes Frites, they’ll surely replicate the product and market it. This would disrupt the Pommes Frites market, especially if the stolen product is sold at a lower price.The thin man nodded and said, “The stolen secret material consists of 2 boxes, or more precisely, one full box and half a box. As for the sample product, it’s as tall as my chest and weighs 1 kilogram, which is clearly insufficient based on its height alone.”Zofia tapped her forehead, her face turning pale, and she began to panic again. “Oh... what should we do? We need to find it.”Christian immediately called Diego.“Diego, please ask Harold where the remaining secret material and sample products of Pommes Frites are. He’s still hiding it from me. Do whatever it takes to make him talk!”

The slap delivered by Manuel left everyone in shock, even Mateusz was momentarily stunned. He didn’t expect his father to do that to Zofia.He turned to his mother, and Carmen glanced at Mateusz. They were both taken aback, but it only lasted for a few moments because they simultaneously put on smiles.“Quickly, tell me who that man is,” Manuel demanded loudly.Zofia was still in shock from what had just happened, rendering her unable to speak.Manuel then turned to Mateusz, urging him to explain.“I know that man is Christian. He started as a worthless son-in-law in the De Delta family. But somehow, he’s now a high-ranking official at ChrisCrafter Ltd. and has established a partnership with Kowalska Company, getting close to my sister and having an affair,” Mateusz said with a hidden sense of delight.He was eager to see Zofia be scolded by Manuel.“You, quickly call and tell him to come see me! If not, don’t blame me if Dad takes action beyond limits!” Manuel exclaimed, pointing tow

It was all too clear that the current situation had unfolded thanks to Mateusz’s plan to destroy Christian’s reputation and humiliate him to the point where Christian would have no face left to meet people.Louis said, “Mr. Mateusz, I kindly request that you refrain from causing trouble in this hotel. I know you are a respected individual; therefore, it would be wise for you to maintain your composure.”Mateusz was taken aback by Louis’s words, and instantly, his anger flared up again.“Mr. Louis, are you blind? The one causing trouble here is him! Christian! Why should I be the one to maintain composure? You shouldn’t be disrespectful!” Mateusz grumbled.Louis, with a serious expression, shook his head. How could he dare to reprimand Christian?“I can see with my own eyes and confirm that it’s you who’s causing trouble here with Mr. Manuel, not Mr. Demetri,” he said.Mateusz sighed deeply and then stepped closer to Louis. He grabbed the collar of Louis’s shirt and said, “Mr. Louis, j

After saying that, Christian felt awkward. Then, he gave a bitter smile while glancing shyly at Zofia.As for Zofia, even though she was touched, she didn’t react too much to it. She knew that what Christian said was just a spontaneous remark, nothing more. She was aware that Christian would not share his heart with another woman.“Mr. Demetri, I know that you are indeed a very kind person. But there are some things you can’t meddle with. So, don’t worry about it, and don’t concern yourself with this matter,” Zofia said with a very soft tone, looking at Christian and smiling.But that smile was just a facade. The corners of her mouth seemed forced, and her gaze appeared different.“But you and...” Christian didn’t finish his sentence. He looked hesitant to say it.Zofia quickly responded, “Don’t worry, my father cares a lot about me. Maybe he was a little upset when he saw those phot
