Tommy turned around, his face filled with worry, and stared at the messenger, asking: “What the hell is going on? Why are the three major companies suddenly announcing that they’re halting cooperation? And why do we have to pay compensation? Did we breach the contract?"The messenger, trembling all over, replied: “Young Master, I don’t know either. They just sent that notice and also mentioned..."But before the messenger could finish, another person rushed in. Seeing the scene before him, he became anxious and quietly stood aside, not daring to say anything.Old Mr. Marshall, noticing the last person who had entered, raised his hand and asked: “What do you want to say?"The newcomer hesitated before stepping forward respectfully and reporting: “Sir, just now, someone from the Drug Administration Bureau delivered a notice. They said that our company, Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals, has many violations, and we are ordered to address all issues within seven days and submit a report. If not,
Meanwhile, back with Alexander and Eleanor, seeing Alexander had turned off his phone, Eleanor grew anxious and nudged him with her foot: “What are you doing?"Alexander grabbed her smooth, white ankle, gently setting it down, and said: “Tommy is likely coming to beg you. It seems Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals is in crisis, and they need Welsh Max Corporation's cooperation to pull through."Eleanor was stunned, looking at Alexander holding her ankle, and asked: “How can you be so sure?"Alexander chuckled and replied: “I just checked the news. Eco Vision Pharmaceuticals has lost all its partners. The three major pharmaceutical companies in Golden Harbor have announced they are cutting ties with Eco Vision. Moreover, Eco Vision is facing over a billion in compensation claims and is under scrutiny from the Food and Drug Administration.""What?" Eleanor was alarmed. She jumped up from the sofa, pulling Alexander along, saying: “Then we should quickly bring them the contract. Right now, only
At that moment, Walden and Tommy’s faces were grim, filled with resentment as they glared at Alexander: “Why don’t you just get out?"Alexander chuckled, saying nothing as he turned to go inside. Tommy sneered and followed him in.Bang!The door slammed shut.Tommy, standing at the door, got his nose hit by the closing door, causing it to bleed. He immediately screamed: “Alexander! You bastard! How dare you do this to me! I won’t let you get away with this!"Walden, also upset for his son, asked a few concerned questions before angrily saying: “This Alexander is really getting out of hand.""Father, what should we do now? Do we really have to bow our heads and apologize?" Tommy asked, unwilling to apologize to that lowly Eleanor, which was as good as asking him to die.Walden shook his head, sighing: “What else can we do? If we don’t, we won’t even be able to get inside."Suddenly, Tommy fell silent, his eyes filled with hatred.Walden took a deep breath, then pressed the doorbell, sp
When Valeria stepped outside, she paused at the door, letting out a couple of chuckles. Then, she took out her phone and sent a message to Peyton: "Peyton, I saw the necklace you gave Eleanor. It’s beautiful. Eleanor seems really happy with it. Why don't you ask her out for dinner and chat?"After that, Valeria headed to the living room.Meanwhile, on the other side, Peyton was drinking and chatting with some friends at a club when he unexpectedly received Valeria’s message. Reading it, he was taken aback.A necklace?What necklace?He had given her a necklace before, but she didn’t accept it.Could it be that Valeria misunderstood something?Peyton replied with a smile: "As long as Eleanor likes it, that's all that matters."Valeria entered the living room, noticing that neither Walden nor Tommy was there, only Alexander and Rodger."Where are your brother and Tommy? Weren't they supposed to apologize to Eleanor? Why did they leave?" Valeria asked.Rodger glanced at Alexander, his ex
Unexpectedly, Alexander suddenly spoke up: “She’s already on her way back. Just give it a few more minutes."In an instant!Everyone’s eyes were focused on Alexander.His words sent a shock through Rodger and Valeria. Just moments ago, they were saying she wouldn’t be back until the afternoon, yet now Alexander was claiming she’d be back in minutes."Alexander, who gave you the right to speak here? Get out! Eleanor clearly went out and won’t be back until this afternoon.” Valeria angrily snapped at Alexander, wanting to kick him out right away.What was he trying to do?Lying right in front of the elder?"Don’t listen to Alexander; he’s just spouting nonsense.” Rodger hastily added, clearly panicking."Hmph!"The elder let out a cold snort, raising his head to look at Alexander and asked: “Was this your idea?"Alexander didn’t deny it and replied: “Yes, it was.""Alexander, I knew you were the one pulling the strings behind this! Grandfather, did you hear that? He admitted it himself!
At the main entrance stood a half-body statue sculpted from golden marble—an image of Klaus Parks, the renowned international master architect who designed LightHouse Music Hall. He was a highly sought-after designer, creating one masterpiece every three years, each of which was revered and fiercely competed for.LightHouse was his final creation.Hosting a concert at LightHouse not only brought prestige and fame but also marked one as a person of upper-echelon status in Golden Harbor.Standing at the entrance, Alexander glanced at the statues and smiled faintly: “Another one of the old man's designs, how predictable."He recalled how Klaus Parks had once pursued him, eager to build a house for him.Annoyed by the architect's persistence, Alexander casually handed over a few hundred million and had him build a villa in the mountains.After all, building a villa for the Young Master of the Dragon Sect was a lifelong dream for many master architects.Alexander chuckled to himself at the
"Director!"Regina called out affectionately and smiled: “Well, it's like this. This migrant worker here refuses to work and is causing trouble, insisting on seeing you. I was just about to throw him out!"Director?So, this was Pandora Jake.Alexander took a moment to observe her. Not bad, this girl had presence, was sophisticated, and undeniably beautiful.Pandora noticed Alexander sizing her up from head to toe, and displeasure flickered in her heart. Her demeanor immediately turned icy, fully embracing the role of an ice-cold beauty.She said to Regina: “Yes, call someone to throw him out. The concert hall is in a sensitive period right now. Later, an important figure who has reserved the hall for the entire day will come to inspect the arrangements. Everyone needs to stay sharp.""Yes, Director!"Regina nodded obediently, like a little lapdog.Then she turned to face Alexander again, flipping her attitude faster than flipping a page, and scolded: “Did you hear that? The director
Regina then vented her anger on Alexander, pointing at him and shouting: “What are you all standing around for? Throw this lowlife out of here!"As soon as she finished speaking—Slap!Pandora landed another slap!This time, Regina was completely stunned, holding her face with both hands.“Regina, shut your mouth! From this moment on, you're fired. Get out of here immediately!” Pandora shouted angrily, pointing towards the door.This fool had no situational awareness—if she wanted to get herself killed, she shouldn’t drag Pandora down with her!“Are you crazy, Director? Why did you slap me? What’s wrong with kicking out someone who doesn’t belong here? And on what grounds are you firing me? My boyfriend is the manager here!” Regina fumed. She had long despised Pandora. That scheming woman had always been hanging around her boyfriend, and last time when she and her boyfriend rented a room, he even called out Pandora's name!It was infuriating!And what was so special about being a dire
