"Are you getting crazy, Cobb? Marriage isn't something that can make you richer, Cobb! You think you'll get everything after the merger? You thought Shannon would give up Reynolds Industries so easily? A merger is not a decision you can make in a hurry, you idiot! There's so much more to fulfil the merger requirements! Besides, what about the shareholders? Two major industries in the UK are going to merge? What the holy shit with you, huh?"
Arthur had not stopped cursing ever since he first came to JF Moulding for a one-on-one talk. Despite the distance, he didn't want to delay time to prevent Aland's plan from being realised. Especially when Jill was still unreachable and unaccounted for.Without ignoring Arthur's presence, Aland continued to pay attention to every detail of the furniture design requested by a customer. "I think you know that all the shareholders have approved it. After all, this has nothing to do with you, right? You have no special contribution to either

"I was really surprised to see this poster, Nick. You designed it well. Thank you," said Aland after JF Properties' working hours were over. He really appreciated Nick's initiative in promoting JF Travel, like the plan he had revealed to Pete."No, Mr Fischer. It was Sarah's idea directly. She was out on the town when she saw you standing in front of the renovated JF Travel." Nick paused his sentence when he saw Sarah blinking rapidly, trying to stop the statement from being made.Seeing that, Aland turned to Sarah, who was sitting on the opposite sofa. His eyebrows furrowed, as if demanding an answer to Nick's statement. "Why didn't you greet me, Ms O'Dell?"Sarah looked down with a flushed face, while her cloth hands twisted the hem of her shirt in nervousness. "Sorry, Mr Fischer. We are indeed here as superior and subordinate. But when I go to the city, we're not bound by work, are we?"Aland didn't understand. He shook his head and glanced at Nick. "So what is it

Arthur was getting restless. Twenty-four hours without Jill's presence had left him increasingly unable to function for a moment. In fact, he had more than a few teams to do all the work directly related to US Foods. But Arthur couldn't trust them completely.The clock had already struck nine when Arthur left his room on the top floor. For the first time, he left so late that there was no one left in the US Foods building in the centre of the city.Restlessly, he headed to the hotel where he had bought a large apartment. It only took him a short while to arrive at his luxurious new residence. He threw himself onto the bed, no longer knowing what he could do for the next day.Arthur glanced at his phone again, but none of his messages had arrived. Irritated, he shouted as loud as he could to vent his anger. "Jill is crazy! How could she really disappear without saying anything to me? There's not even anyone who can find her at the ends of the earth?"Unexpectedly, his

"They're back."Pete's sudden statement before the newly married couple left the living room did not surprise them in the least. He nodded when Aland turned his head, even if only to confirm Pete's sentence once again.Pete's nod made Aland chuckle softly. Aland put his arm around the shoulder of Shannon, who also looked back. "Come in, Pete. If they're back, there will most likely be a war after this. We don't want you getting cussed out again."Pete quickly packed up all the files and his laptops on the desk. He rushed inside when he heard the roar of vehicles entering the courtyard.Aland and Shannon glanced at each other briefly before nodding firmly. "They're going to explode when they hear from Arthur, hun. Are you ready to handle it?"Aland's question was only answered with a nod by Shannon with great confidence. Sure enough, just as the two of them climbed the stairs, the door to the Reynolds residence was opened so loudly that there was a thud that surpr

The clock had already struck eight when Aland and Shannon descended the stairs. Without further ado, the two of them made their way to the dining table. Ignoring the presence of Jill and Camellia, who were gazing at each other."I'll be right back after calling Pete for breakfast."Jill laughed with a grin as she savoured a chicken dish filled with cheese and selected spices. "You're shameless. You guys stay here, linger, but betray my late husband by uniting Reynolds Industries and those cheap JF Groups?"Like a sudden deafness, Aland did not care about his mother-in-law's words. He simply nodded and smiled at Shannon, who was heading to the guest room at the front, close to the living room.Jill threw her knife at Aland, but he managed to dodge it with just a tilt of his head. She laughed, snorted, disdained. "For the first time, I see people who are shameless enough to join us at the dinner table after spitting on me last night! I should have roused James from his

Just before crossing the markings at the traffic light, Jill quickly realised that she was out of control. She quickly hit the clutch pedal hard, followed by the brake pedal.In just an instant, Jill's luxury car came to a halt just before all the vehicles from the opposite lane hit the gas. That way, she could avoid a traffic accident.Unfortunately, her car came to a sudden halt, causing her to hit the back of the car. Her head hit the steering wheel and her forehead bled. Slowly but surely, Jill breathed a sigh of relief.Instead of regretting having gone that far, Jill laughed. She laughed out loud when she realised no one could stop her but herself. Not even fate."That's right. Only I will make my destiny change. Only I can decide where my destiny will lead."Elsewhere, Pete and Aland, who had dropped Shannon off, immediately headed to JF Load.Pete, who was now trying to open the JF Load application, tried to prove to Aland how bugs interfere with cust

"What the fuck with you, Eddie? Have you gone mad? You could have warned me, couldn't you? You could have just told me everything in a message after telling me about the merger! Why did you have to wait for me to break down first to tell me everything, huh?"Eddie was silent. He looked down deeply as he looked the other way. "They threatened me, Mr Fischer. They also kept saying that you weren't really James's son. That's why I had my doubts at first. I—"Eddie had barely finished his sentence when Arthur slapped him with such force that he fell backwards. He looked up at Arthur, who was still staring at him fearfully."You had your doubts, huh? It's obvious I'm James's son and you doubt me? You knew me first, Eddie! Dad even introduced me in public that I was his son! And you're doubting me? Who are you doubting? Me or my dad's statement that you've taken for granted in life, huh?"Eddie was still silent with his cheeks heating up from the powerful slap. He knew som

Jill walked quickly into the restaurant. Her gaze was sharp as she headed to the VIP room booked for her meeting with Alex Law. With her anger mounting, she really thought she would take it out on the right person. "Damn it! He doesn't even want to talk on the phone. Do I still have to lose again for his carelessness this time? Buying him exclusive food just to ask what the hell is going on? What a greedy man! Doesn't he know who he's dealing with yet?"Jill opened the special room door quickly. She found Alex sipping coffee shakily. The door slammed shut with a loud bang. It was as if she didn't care if there was tremendous damage to be done in the end.Quickly and with a burst of anger, Jill approached and slapped Alex hard. The coffee cup in Alex's hand fell over and shattered into dozens of pieces. Some shards landed on the backs of Jill's legs, leaving scars and blood.Alex immediately looked down, no longer daring to look up. He swallowed hard, as if there was noth

Arthur was smashing some glasses in the corner of his room when Jill suddenly arrived with the same anger. Instead of sharing her anger, Jill was shocked to see Arthur's workspace filled with broken glasses and pitchers. "What the hell is going on, Arthur? Why did you destroy your room, huh?"Arthur twisted his head, then glanced at Jill, who was already holding an equally large amount of anger. "Then how should I express my disappointment if not like this, Mrs Reynolds? Should I destroy your room? Is that what you want? Or should I destroy Gregory's room? Why do you have to question me about these things?"Jill swallowed irritably. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes, trying not to be triggered by Arthur's shouting. "Can't you speak politely, huh?"Arthur massaged his temples lightly. This time, his nape felt so stiff from being so angry. He approached Jill, who was still clenching her lips tightly. "How much more polite should I treat you, Mrs Reynolds? I've ans
