Louis listened to Leonard's report without showing any surprise. He had known that the Alexander family had no good intentions from the beginning, and this outcome was just a matter of time.Standing on the side, Leonard couldn't help but comment, "They are too foolish. They will regret it eventually."Louis tilted his head slightly, his face devoid of emotion as he spoke, "No, they won't have a chance to regret."Leonard understood Louis' temperament. Those people dared to touch his interests, so they were genuinely seeking their death.Louis was unaware of Leonard's exclamation and glanced at him, asking in a low voice, "Is that all?"Leonard shook his head slightly and continued, "Perhaps this will disappoint you, but the
Louis looked at Lucy with a mysterious gaze and said, "You can see through people's hearts. You make it seem like we're in a supernatural film."Although Louis spoke absentmindedly, he secretly observed Lucy. As the heir of the Adonis family, he possessed knowledge that others didn't.Sensing Louis's disbelief, Lucy immediately frowned as if wanting to speak up. However, she discerned the situation and pretended to look menacingly at Louis, whispering, "I never claimed that I could see through people's hearts. I'm not even supernaturally gifted to that extent.""Oh?" Louis raised an eyebrow.Lucy's face twisted in arrogance as she proclaimed, "Perhaps you don't believe it, but I can tell when someone is lying or telling the truth, whether they have ill intentions. When s
Elena stood before Louis's office door, took a deep breath, and knocked. She didn't know how bad Louis's mood was now, so she thought she needed to prepare herself mentally.She had heard some superiors vent their anger on their subordinates when things weren't going well at work. Although she didn't think Louis was that kind of person, facing the pressure of the company's constraints, anyone would likely get a little hot-tempered.It was unavoidable. Elena took a deep breath and then knocked on the door.From inside came Louis's low and calm voice, as usual, "Come in."Elena opened the door and saw Louis sitting at his desk, holding a beautiful golden pen. He was dealing with some work.Looking at him, still composed and cal
Louis glanced at Mason, his deep gaze seeming to see through everything. Mason sat on the ground and quickly said, "Don't you understand what I mean? It means I have given up my position as the heir of the Smith family! I have abandoned nearly 20 years of effort not to betray you!" After speaking, he looked up at Louis, his eyes teary. Giving up his coveted position was never easy for him. Mason slowly said each word, "It's for the best that you don't lose. I don't want to die with you..." Louis shifted his gaze from Mason. He could see the sincerity, regret, and remorse in those eyes. Perhaps he had struggled a lot to make this decision. However, if it were Louis, he could only give up his current power to follow someone if they succeeded. That was why Louis had never blamed Mason. Louis fixed his gaze on Mason and asked, "Give me a reason, any reason, for why you would give up everything. You're truly peculiar." Mason paused momentarily and then said, "You're the peculiar one. I rel
"Are you serious about this? Will you truly work diligently and not abandon your work to go racing like before?" Mr. Crown sat on the chair, his skeptical gaze fixed on Lucy, his talented daughter. Only recently, Lucy suddenly proposed to work at the family company. The Crown family had subsidiary companies in numerous fields and dealt with complex tasks. If it were someone else who suddenly wanted to work at the family company, Mr. Crown would certainly not easily agree. However, this person was Lucy. Before Lucy was born, the Crown family could not compare to the two long-established families, Alexander and the Ames family. But after Lucy turned five and discovered her unique abilities, the Crown family seemed to enter a different realm in business and the upper class. Over the past 20 years, with her abilities, Lucy directly or indirectly built a powerful Crown family. It became so formidable that it could rival the two long-standing families. Most negotiations and transactions
Just when the atmosphere in the meeting room was heated, Maya, who had always stood behind Elena, suddenly wanted to step forward. Elena quickly pulled her back and whispered, "What are you trying to do? We can't interrupt in this situation."Maya frowned at Elena, her expression slightly malicious, but then she smiled and said, "What do I want to do? I want you out of this company immediately."Elena furrowed her brow, seemingly not understanding Maya's intentions. At that moment, Maya suddenly threw her hand away and spoke loudly, "Elena, you shouldn't act like this. If you've committed a crime, you should accept the consequences. I want you to confess so that it might reduce your charges."Hearing Maya's words, the older executives in the meeting room turned their attention to Elena. Among them, no one was unaware of Elena. She had worked alongside Louis and had handled many tasks on his behalf.When they heard that Elena might be the one who stole the Hecate project, the sharehold
Louis glanced at the concerned special assistant on the other side and spoke slowly, "Explain it clearly."The special assistant seemed to be influenced by Louis's demeanor. He took two breaths in a fluster and quickly composed himself, saying, "Just now, the representative of the Smith family arrived at the company and stated that the Smith family wants to withdraw all investments from the projects we are currently collaborating on."Louis nodded slightly, signaling the special assistant to stand aside. The special assistant truly couldn't understand how Louis could maintain such a calm expression. This may be why Louis, at 21, became the Chairman of a large company while he was just a special assistant.The special assistant silently contemplated this thought but quickly stepped aside. Seeing that Louis didn't sho
After everyone had left the room, only three shareholders, Leon and Louis, remained. Louis remained silent, seemingly waiting for something. The meeting room door opened at that moment, and a special assistant entered. He had just seen the formidable shareholders, and even the board of directors leave. Each of them had their heads down, lost in thought, contemplating whether to resign or stay. The current situation of the company could have to bode better. The special assistant pondered this in his mind but showed little on the surface. He bowed his head and spoke to Louis, "Mr. Chairman, the representative of the Smith family, requests to discuss the contract violation with the head of the Smith family. He mentioned that the Smith family will have their lawyer meet with you tomorrow." Louis nodded, indicating his understanding. He smirked and mockingly said, "Whether they bring a lawyer or not, the Smith family will have to compensate us." Pausing momentarily, he chuckled and said, "
