Tonight was indeed dangerous for Tiger. Scar had come for his life. Fortunately, he had prepared meticulously, which led to Scar leaving empty-handed.Without the dozen or so rifles, Tiger might not have survived. Even in hindsight, he still felt the lingering fear.Tiger wondered, "Scar is a man from King City's streets, acting on the Hernandezes' orders. But why would he come after me?"At this point, he hadn't figured it out. Logically, he had no connections with the Hernandezes and no personal grudges."We missed something." Roland chimed in. "Tiger, Mr. Johnson, have you noticed that the three of us share something in common?"After some thought, he realized Scar had been circling around the three of them from Dortmund City to tonight. When this dawned on him, everything suddenly made sense."What is it?" Tiger asked.He knew he and Roland were both underground bosses, a common trait. But what about Eric?Roland continued. "Scar came after you, but he attacked me first. Do
Seraphine said, "Brook, if you need more experts, just let me know. I can bring a few more from King City. The Montgomerys not only have a lot of money but also many skilled individuals."Brook noticed Seraphine's growing assertiveness and couldn't help but smile. Seraphine and Grace had their similarities, but they were also different in many ways.Sylvester glanced at Seraphine and shook his head.Brook replied, "We don't need additional manpower. Tiger has repelled Scar from King City. Let's keep our resources to deal with the Hernandezes because they sent Scar."Seraphine flared up. The audacity of the Hernandezes to meddle in Salt City was infuriating. On the surface, it seemed like they were dealing with Tiger, but she knew their ultimate target was Eric.Sylvia reassured her, "Seraphine, don't worry about these matters. Let the men handle them. There's no need for us to concern ourselves with it."Sylvia had never involved herself in Eric's street matters. As a couple, she
"If Kenneth has been exposed, things will get more complicated." Javier's face darkened as he asked, "You showed up in front of him?"He thought Kenneth, as the eldest son of the Pettersons, should have known better—when to act and when not to.Chase shook his head and explained, "Mr. Hernandez, it was only me who went. I had an encounter with Eric, but Mr. Petterson didn't go, and they didn't see him."Javier frowned and asked, "Then how—"Chase interrupted, "We don't know for sure. It's hard not to be noticed with advanced surveillance technology everywhere nowadays."Javier was at a loss for words. He sighed and said, "For the time being, don't go back to Salt City. You should all stay at the villa and not roam around. We'll make arrangements once the situation calms down."This unexpected situation disrupted Javier's plans. He hadn't anticipated that Kenneth's visit to Salt City would almost expose him. Under Eric's vigilant watch, Kenneth's chances of success were nearly imp
Eric always brought Sylvia with him to work. The Innova Group was continuously expanding. After changing its name to the Innova Group, the company also relocated its offices. At this point, all the key figures at the Innova Group knew that Sylvia would eventually join the group.On the other hand, Andy was growing impatient."Eric, when will you let Sylvia take over to free me up?" he asked, rubbing his hands together.Sylvia had excellent suggestions, but Andy found it challenging to implement them. Although he could hire someone for the work, Andy didn't fully trust outsiders. After all, family was different from outsiders. In his eyes, he already considered himself part of Eric's family due to his relationship with Elly."Why are you in such a hurry? Sylvia hasn't had enough rest yet," Eric replied.Andy looked frustrated upon hearing that. "Eric, Sylvia, don't you want to see me happy? The house is almost renovated. Now I need a wife!"He chuckled and added, "I secretly added
Henry suddenly realized that Alexander and Grace, who had come that day, were his in-laws. One was already an in-law, and the other was soon to be. This was indeed a fortunate turn of events.Amelia said, "Victoria, Grace, since you're here in Salt City, why not extend your stay and enjoy your time?"Alexander chuckled. "Our girl doesn't want to leave Salt City. If she's not eager to return, we'll have to spend more time here."It was a common belief that a married woman would leave her family to join her husband's. Alexander understood this principle and wanted both families to handle this matter together. He was quite pleased with Sylvester and the others.Aside from Grace, Alexander and Victoria were visiting Salt City for the first time. They engaged in conversation with Henry while Sylvia consulted Grace about the Innova Group. With the change in leadership on the agenda, it was time to start implementing it.Listening to Sylvia's thoughts, Grace nodded and said, "Very good.
Eric had to step into the role of Chief Information Officer (CIO) with a specific focus on technological advancements in related areas. Andy's workload had significantly reduced as the Chief Operating Officer (COO), evident in his more relaxed demeanor.Once all matters were resolved, Sylvia went into overdrive. She and her accompanying assistant worked overtime to chart the Innova Group's future and its path to rapid growth.Regardless of how late it got, Eric patiently waited for Sylvia to finish work before heading home together. Sylvia's leadership had injected new vitality into the Innova Group.-At King City.The Innova Group had become a renowned company with its products entering the market to positive reviews. Even three international giants had purchased the Innova Group equipment for in-depth research.The change in the Innova Group's leadership didn't go unnoticed, reaching the Hernandez family's ears. For Sylvia, this was her debut in the public eye.Javier remarke
A few days later, Kenneth felt fully prepared and visited the Montgomerys to find Grace.However, Grace and the others had just returned from Salt City after spending a lot of time there. Although the wedding date for Seraphine and Sylvester was not confirmed yet, they had strengthened the bond between the two families.When Kenneth showed up, he looked exactly like Eric, with no noticeable differences. Even his behavior and mannerisms were strikingly similar to Eric's.Unfortunately, Grace and Alexander couldn't be fooled. They had returned from Salt City just a few days ago and knew that the Innova Group was very busy, about to launch their new products.This wasn't the right time for Eric to visit. Besides, there was Sylvia. Every time Eric came to the Montgomerys, Sylvia would accompany him. Even though Kenneth looked just like Eric, Grace noticed too many differences.Impersonating someone in this era was no easy task. Nonetheless, Grace pretended not to see through the decep
Alexander said, "Considering his actions, Javier has most likely orchestrated this. What could his ultimate goal be?"Alexander couldn't fathom why Javier would do this. What could be gained from having someone impersonate Eric? Was it solely to halt the business war between the Montgomerys and the Hernandezes?In his view, there were several ways to end the business war without resorting to such a foolish plan if that was indeed Javier's sole purpose.Grace pondered and then suggested, "Alex, what if Javier's intention is for that person to completely replace Eric?"Alexander's expression changed. It wasn't entirely out of the realm of possibility. He could only conclude that Javier was taking extreme measures."If that's the case... Isn't Eric in danger?" Alexander expressed his concern.After all, it was clear that Eric would likely have to be eliminated for someone to take his place.Grace nodded. "I've already considered that, so I've sent Vince and Matthew back to Salt Cit
