With a smile on his face, Quentin Mellon stood alongside the Bloom family, finding it almost unbelievable that Joanna had secured the contract in such a short span of time and they thought he had something to do with it.Even Quentin's father hadn't been able to connect with someone who knew someone associated with General Manager Marshall himself. It was a complex web of connections."You don't understand how grateful our family is to you, Mr. Mellon," Madame Alice expressed, her gaze warm and her smile radiant.Quentin shook his head politely. "Please, call me Quentin, ma'am. I simply did what I could to help Joanna in her time of need," he replied humbly.Deep down, Quentin knew that they had no knowledge of who had truly helped them or if luck had favored their cause. So, taking credit for the successful outcome wouldn't come back to haunt him in any way.Madame Alice chuckled and looked towards Joanna. "You see, dear, this is the kind of person you should be with. Someone who can

Observing her grandmother's serious demeanor, Joanna nodded subtly and seized the opportunity to quietly approach Travis, as her grandmother was engrossed in discussions with her uncles and aunt. "You haven't said anything. What should I do? What if the chairman of the Danforth Group refuses to come? What if General Manager Marshall is unwilling to attend?" she asked in a hushed tone.Travis let out a low chuckle and replied, "Just give it a try. You have General Manager Marshall's contact, right? You never know, the other party might agree as soon as you make the call."To Travis, everything seemed to be progressing smoothly. His relationship with his wife had improved, which was the greatest joy for him. The upcoming banquet hosted by the Bloom family would not only showcase the family's strength but also give Joanna the recognition she deserved, elevating her status as an important figure to be admired.Being the husband of such a remarkable woman was something he took pride in.Jo

Upon leaving the Bloom mansion, Joanna was filled with excitement. Everything had been falling into place since the recovery of their daughter, and it was all working out perfectly for them.Her grandmother would showcase her value to the numerous guests invited to the banquet. Joanna would be honored in their presence, bringing her immense joy.Unable to contain her gratitude, she turned to Travis and expressed, "Thank you, Travis. I don't know how you do it or if you possess foresight, but your support has meant the world to me. You believed in me, and I truly appreciate that."Travis gazed at her with a smile and they paused their walk. He nodded and replied, "Well, I appreciate the fact that you appreciate me."Joanna chuckled, her eyes filled with love as she continued to gaze at him. She then said, "Ever since Maya, our lives—" She let out a sigh before apologizing, "I'm sorry."Travis found her words amusing. He felt content knowing that he had regained his wife, even though sh

Curious onlookers in the store gathered around, their minds buzzing with questions about the purpose of the men's arrival. Could they be here for the underprivileged guy? It seemed highly improbable, and even Jenna couldn't wrap her head around the idea that he could be involved in such a grand spectacle.Jenna's confusion grew as she noticed another man whom she recognized, stepping out of one of the Rolls-Royces, his eyes fixed on Travis. Travis, too, was taken aback by the sight. The last time he had seen this man was when he turned his back on his family.This man was none other than Travis's bodyguard—his trusted companion who had accompanied him through thick and thin, ensuring his safety and standing by his side during times of trouble. He had been Travis's partner in crime on so many countless adventures.The man bowed respectfully and addressed Travis, saying, "Master Travis, I hope I haven't arrived too late."Travis shook his head and replied, "No, you're right on time. So,

Travis returned home after instructing Damien to arrange a meeting with Devon the next day, intending to convey something he had been meaning to say during their last encounter.Now, his curiosity about his family had become overwhelming, impossible to ignore. Despite his previous claims of indifference towards his father, he secretly desired to know his well-being, if only his pride would permit him.Upon reaching home, he discovered Joanna already present, engaged in a hushed conversation with her mother over the phone. "Mom, he's here, don't worry. We'll discuss it later."Travis narrowed his eyes and approached Joanna, asking, "Is something troubling you?"Joanna immediately shook her head. "No, everything is fine. So, how was your day? Where did you go?""I went to work on our anniversary, with the intention of making it extraordinary. You're going to love it," he assured her.She responded with a simple smile."By the way, where's Maya? Did she fall asleep?" Travis inquired, not

Devon initiated a significant conversation. "Travis, we need to talk about your stepmother, Bianca. There's something I've observed within my father's underground business operations for Danforth Group. Does the name Gerald Kramer ring a bell?" Devon inquired.Travis furrowed his brow, delving into his memories before nodding in recognition. "Yeah, Gerald Kramer, the man who harbors deep animosity toward my father. I've never quite understood the reason behind their ongoing feud."Devon concurred with a nod. "Exactly. Well, Bianca paid him a visit, and I happened to overhear their conversation. They were discussing plans to bring your father down, and it's a grave situation because Mr. Kramer is fully committed to this scheme. Their intention is to gradually dismantle him."Travis's face contorted with anger upon hearing the revelation. "What? That despicable woman! First, she took my mother's life, and now she's plotting against my father?!""That's precisely why I insisted you retur

Quentin and his father were fraught with concern about their position in the corporate world. With a hint of nervousness in his voice, Quentin shared a thought that had crossed his mind, "Dad, could it be that the chairman of Danforth Group is planning a major reshuffle? It would explain why they chose Bloom Constructions, a lower-tier company, over all the top-tier construction firms in the country.""It's quite possible!" Quentin's father suddenly realized. "Since the new chairman took over, I haven't had an opportunity to visit. I've mentioned it to General Marshall numerous times, but he kept insisting that the new chairman isn't receiving visitors."Quentin's face displayed his concern as he let out a sigh and posed the question once more, "Dad, what can we do in this situation?"His father pondered for a moment before a realization struck him. "Ah, I remember! The Blooms are hosting a banquet tonight, and the memo mentioned that the chairman of Danforth Group will be in attendan

“...Sorry to burst your bubble, but that's nothing more than a lifelong fantasy."Seething with anger, Quentin's frustration reached its boiling point, causing his teeth to clench tightly as he directed a venomous glare at Travis. "You're a complete fool, Travis. Your self-importance will get you nowhere, do you understand? You are utterly incapable of giving her what she desires, but someone like me certainly can."Travis's voice grew colder as his patience wore thin. "It's about time you shut your vulgar mouth. You have no idea what I'm capable of if you continue spewing your filth in front of me."Quentin let out a disdainful huff, a smirk dancing across his face in amusement. "Are you trying to threaten me? You? Ha ha, you insufferable bastard!""It's not a threat, it's a warning," Travis clarified. Just as he was about to walk away, Quentin reached out and used his hand to stop him."Do you honestly think I'll simply let you off the hook after you've dared to threaten me, Travis
