The festive atmosphere in the hotel ballroom was entirely lost on Marigold. All she could feel was the silence brought about by Demetri’s pressure.Indeed, canceling the contract with CrispCrafter Ltd. was a heavy blow. Their company would be ruined. Even fighting back would require a considerable amount of money as they had to hire top-notch lawyers.However, in truth, if they were willing to take the risk, there was still a chance of winning. If they won, they would receive 1 trillion in compensation, as stipulated in the contract.With that much money, they could build De Delta to its full potential. But of course, all of it was highly risky, and Marigold was not one to take significant risks.“How about it, Grandma?” Orion asked, anxiously.Marigold thought hard, glancing several times at Yve, whose face appeared puzzled.“Bu Dorota, you’ve known me for quite some time, haven’t you? You know how dedicated I am in my work. With me in charge of the project team, the project will run

A heavyweight martial artist with an A-level reputation had been threatened. Three men brandishing firearms were taking aim at his head, and most terrifying of all, the mafia boss stood before him. If John still dared to conceal the identity of the businessman who had hired them, his days in this world were undoubtedly ended.“T-that person is Louis. All I know is that he’s the son of a big company owner around here,” John revealed with a trembling voice of fear.Initially, Christian had thought that Declan was the one paying off the mafia. That’s why Christian was somewhat surprised.“What? Louis?” Christian asked with a shocked expression.Diego noticed Christian’s incredulous expression, and he took action by grabbing John’s hair, saying, “Answer truthfully! Dare to lie, and I’ll cut your tongue!”“Arghh! I’m not lying! I swear I’m telling the truth!” John exclaimed, trying to endure the pain.Christian raised his hand towards Diego and lowered it as a sign for Diego to release his

Of course, both people turned pale. Seeing Paul’s leg being chopped off without mercy made them panic.“Louis, how is it?” Chloe asked.Louis shook his head. He didn’t know what to do. Even the option of apologizing and pardoning did not occur to him.“Oh yeah, you guys are having a party, can I join your party? Because I heard earlier that you two rejected me because I’m poor,” said Christian as he walked over to the two people.“We’re not having a party, Christian,” said Louis.“Well, you guys were drinking here very happily. Is that not a party? So, what are you doing?” Christian asked.“Never mind Christian, just end this. Chloe and I want to go home,” said Louis, who was still reluctant to apologize. “Chloe and you want to go home,” said Christian with a suppressed voice and an annoying face. “Hey! It’s all you guys who started it! just end this? Do not dream!”Chloe held Louis’s arm so tightly that it made marks on his arm.“So, what do you want?” Louis asked. “You want money?

Orion’s attitude was truly irritating, and he lacked courtesy.Frustrated, Yve quickly reclaimed the gift, saying, “This isn’t your concern!”“Yve, I’m like this because I care about you. I don’t want you to be a naive woman continuously taken advantage of by that poor man. Even for buying a gift, you have to do it yourself. This has gone too far,” Orion said.Christian calmly walked to his motorcycle and took a red box with golden ribbons that was still on it.“What’s he doing? Running away in embarrassment? Good!” Orion sneered while crossing his arms.Christian returned with the red box and said, “I apologize, it’s just a gift, I can still buy it myself. Look, I’ve already prepared it.”Orion furrowed his brow and said, “Is that the gift you brought? Are you sure it’s not embarrassing? You know for yourself, who the De Delta Family is, right? We don’t accept cheap gifts. So, you’d better take your gift back.”“I’m sure the gift I’m giving is more valuable than what you brought,” Ch

“Should I do it?” Camila asked.Even though she knew that Christian had already given a very luxurious gift, she still felt reluctant to pursue him. It was no longer about money for Camila; there was something else between her and Declan.Now Declan’s face appeared gloomy as well. His engagement was now at risk because Christian, from somewhere, had managed to bring a lavish gift.Marigold turned to Camila and said, “Yes, of course, you should chase him. I think he’s hiding something.”“That’s right, sis. Hurry, go after him. Regardless, someone who can afford a master Cedro diamond necklace is worth considering,” Larina said.Lyka put the diamond necklace back into the box and said, “You are all so embarrassing. You were the ones who drove Christian away earlier, but now you’re asking for Christian to be here.”Marigold and Larina felt offended by what Lyka had said, but they couldn’t complain right away because Lyka had already gone to her room on the second floor of the house.“You
