Kate Downey was reluctant to slave away for the rest of her life, much less rely on Quince Larson. She also felt that this was an opportunity for her.‘William Corbin—the head of Seattle’s Corbin family; he is a prominent figure. If only I could be William’s Hey Siri probably after the meet. Yeah, she knows you guys up at like woman, even if I’m just a mistress. Perhaps with a little luck, I might even be able to rise above everyone else because of that.’Seeing his cousin walking toward William Corbin, Quentin naturally understood her intentions. To be honest, he also hoped that she would succeed.Currently, Naomi was being backed by the Hemsworth family of New York. That would be a hindrance to him no matter what.If Kate could strike up a relationship with the Corbin family of Seattle, he had confidence in convincing the Corbin family to support him.As such, he decided to take his leave. After all, he had come only to witness the grand birthday party today.Now that the part

“Naomi Downey from the Downey family of San Francisco.” Arthur took the initiative to introduce his wife.The security officers seemed to be expecting them. They glanced at each other and gestured for them to enter.When the couple walked forward together, one of the security officers stopped Arthur. “Who are you? You can’t enter.”“Her husband, Arthur Grey.”Pfft!The security officers burst out into laughter. “Oh, you’re the infamous, good-for-nothing matrilocal son-in-law of San Francisco’s Downey family.”“You’re famous in San Francisco. I’m sorry for not recognizing you earlier, but you aren’t allowed to enter.”Even though Arthur had already announced his identity, the security officers refused to let him in.Arthur shrugged. “Alright then. We’ll visit another day.”He then turned to leave with his wife.“Why are you guys leaving? My subordinates are just incompetent. You could’ve just called out for me.” A man with a cigar in his hand was looking toward the gate from t

The Downey Corporation’s conference room.Albert Downey sat at the head of the table and glanced at the clock. “Quince, what’s going on? Half an hour has already passed. Just tell me if you have something you want to say.”His grandson had invited him here, saying that something major had happened in the family. It was so serious that it couldn’t be written in the books. However, he had been here for more than half an hour, but Quentin had yet to say anything.The Old Master was starting to get a little impatient.“Grandpa, the person Brother is talking about isn’t here yet. Just wait patiently.” Kate looked out of the door and realized that Naomi hadn’t arrived.As such, Albert Downey cut in. “I’ll give you another five minutes. If you don’t say it, I’m going back.”He slammed his watch on the table. The wait had made him uncomfortable.“Forget it, I’ll just say it. Grandpa, I received reliable information that the one who has been in the way of our collaboration with the Star

Initially, Arthur had wanted the four guardians to find the whereabouts of the beggar. If they found out about it, he wanted them to bring him back.But now that his younger brother, Benjamin Grey, was involved, he would have to get involved personally.It was inevitable for the two brothers to eventually fight it out over Atlas Hall.“How long do you need?”“I’m not sure.”“Why are you going?”“I can’t tell you.”“Will you return alive?”“I’m not sure.” Arthur answered his wife’s questions honestly.After her interrogation, she very much wanted to punch him to death.In the end, her thoughts were all condensed into a single word: “Scram!”Arthur stood up without feeling any anger and took his leave.For some unknown reason, Naomi Downey’s heart tightened the moment her husband walked out of her office.She walked to the window and looked downstairs to see her spouse walking further and further from the office building until he disappeared from her sight.At that moment,

Naomi Downey rushed down and kicked her husband’s room open. Then, she picked up his quilt and threw it out.After doing so, she slammed the door shut.Even she didn’t know why she had done so.There was nothing between her and Arthur except for a title.In fact, he had already told her that he likely wouldn’t be back. Nonetheless, her feathers had been ruffled when he didn’t return home.‘Sleep!’?Naomi decided not to think about Arthur anymore and to go to bed.However, she tossed and turned. It was already three o’clock when she glanced at the clock, yet she was still wide awake.Naomi went downstairs once more and threw Arthur’s pillow and clothes out as well. Then, she returned to bed.Still, she remained wide awake at five in the morning.She once again headed downstairs and tossed her spouse’s towel, toothbrush, and toothpaste out of the house. Then, she returned to bed yet again.Finally, at seven in the morning, she was awoken by her mother’s piercing scream.Naomi
