"Thommy Patrick Albern, CEO of Charath D'Joungth Compan, officially invested ten million dollars into Corpa Miller Company. Wow, you are really great!"Darren took a sip of the red wine served on the dining table after Mr. Miller, his father, said that. Since three days after the official announcement of Thommy investing into Corpa Miller Company, the news spread everywhere.In Mr. Miller's hand, there was already a newspaper with a photo of Darren shaking hands with Thommy. Of course it was something to be proud of.Thommy was known as an investor who would not carelessly put his money into a company. That is also the track record of Charath D'Joungth Company. There has never been a significant downturn or decline in shares. The company earned huge profits as long as it issued every business innovation.Therefore, Thommy is a very influential investor. Almost all investors will follow in the footsteps of the company where Thonmy gives his money."Who trained you to negotiate with M

"Why are you calling me, Cloe?" asked Darren after picking up the phone call.In front of Darren, Walt wore an expression of astonishment and glanced in the small rearview mirror. Walt had already thought of all the bad possibilities about Cloe calling Darren."Darren, I actually want to have a serious talk with you. Are you... are you still angry about what I did to you?" asked Cloe in a hesitant voice.Darren furrowed his brow. Cloe's question confused him. He could hardly believe that Cloe would ask him such a question."Why do you ask that?" asked Darren.Cloe was silent for a few seconds. During that silence, it felt like Darren couldn't calm down. Darren guessed various things in his mind about why Cloe suddenly asked him that question. His senses couldn't help but be alert."I'm just making sure. Considering what you did to my father, I'm guessing you're very hurt," Cloe said.Realizing Walt was both curious and suspicious of him, Darren turned on the speaker mode. Eventually

"Are you doing this on purpose, Mr. Charlotte?"The atmosphere in the inmate and guest visiting room was tense. Darren and Mr. Charlotte were sitting opposite each other with serious expressions.A few hours ago Darren sent a visit request which was immediately approved by Mr. Charlotte. Darren deliberately wanted to talk directly to Mr. Charlotte after many suspicious events."I didn't expect you to come visit me here," Mr. Charlotte said with a chuckle.Darren snorted in disgust. He knew Mr. Charlotte was deliberately provoking his annoyance."Yeah, you planned for me to come here. Right?" asked Darren."What do you mean? I complied with your wishes by staying in this prison. You don't seem satisfied," replied Mr. Charlotte."No need to pretend, Mr. Charlotte. You called me to give an implied ultimatum.""I'm just warming up before facing you in our upcoming business competition, Darren.""You're indirectly saying that you'll be free from prison in the near future. I can see what yo

"I will still agree to Mr. Charlotte's request to release him," Darren replied confidently. Mr. Miller looked like he wanted to deny what Darren was planning. But seeing that Darren was very sure of his own plan, Mr. Miller pursed his lips again."Alright. I can't hold you back if you've made that choice, Darren," Mr. Miller replied.Darren immediately shifted his gaze briefly to Mr. Miller. He noticed the concern implied by Mr. Miller's expression. But he merely curved a reassuring smile. "Take it easy, Dad. I've lived with Mr. Charlotte for years. I know how he is," Darren replied. Mr. Miller had nothing more to say to Darren."Do whatever you want, but take care of yourself, Darren. Even though you know how Mr. Charlotte is, business competition is a cruel thing," Mr. Miller said.Darren nodded his head. He then looked at Walt, and gave him a brief pat on the shoulder."Thank you for your efforts in finding this evidence, Walt. We'll keep this in a secret room, don't let anyo

"Jack! What are you trying to do?!" Cloe called out in a frantic shout.Regardless of Cloe's call, Jack only strengthened his grip on Darren's shirt collar. He gritted his teeth even more furiously, as if pouring out all his hatred."Let go, Jack. Don't act crazy," Darren said amidst his panting condition.Jack grinned at Darren, laughing at his words. He refused to remove his hand from the collar of Darren's shirt, not caring about the threats he was hearing."You provoked my anger, asshole. Why are you here with Cloe?!" asked Jack in an emphasized tone. Darren raised his head with his mouth agape. As the pressure of Jack's hand grip grew stronger, the more he struggled to breathe.It felt like no matter how much Darren tried to take in oxygen, his efforts failed."You haven't shown up for years, and then you come to bother Mr. Charlotte's family," Jack said angrily. Darren noticed the veins on Jack's neck popping. The anger that shone through Jack's eyes made his hair stand on e
