"Jack! What are you trying to do?!" Cloe called out in a frantic shout.

Regardless of Cloe's call, Jack only strengthened his grip on Darren's shirt collar. He gritted his teeth even more furiously, as if pouring out all his hatred.

"Let go, Jack. Don't act crazy," Darren said amidst his panting condition.

Jack grinned at Darren, laughing at his words. He refused to remove his hand from the collar of Darren's shirt, not caring about the threats he was hearing.

"You provoked my anger, asshole. Why are you here with Cloe?!" asked Jack in an emphasized tone.

Darren raised his head with his mouth agape. As the pressure of Jack's hand grip grew stronger, the more he struggled to breathe.

It felt like no matter how much Darren tried to take in oxygen, his efforts failed.

"You haven't shown up for years, and then you come to bother Mr. Charlotte's family," Jack said angrily.

Darren noticed the veins on Jack's neck popping. The anger that shone through Jack's eyes made his hair stand on e

    "Darren, what happened?!" Mr. Miller said in a panicked tone after seeing Darren's condition. Darren and Walt's steps moved towards the living room of Mr. Miller's mansion. After hearing Mr. Miller's question, Darren just shook his head as he walked."There was a fight between Mr. Darren and Mr. Jack," Walt replied later.Darren looked quickly at Walt with both eyes glaring, warning. He didn't want to tell Mr. Miller what had just happened. "Why did you say that?" asked Darren in a voice that sounded like a hiss.Walt made a face that didn't understand Darren's expression. As a result, Darren just let out a rough breath as he held back his frustration. He just didn't want to see the concern that now radiated from Mr. Miller's gaze.Mr. Miller who walked hurriedly towards Darren was now facing his son. As Darren expected, Mr. Miller looked both pity and annoyance at the condition of Darren's injured face."Jack did this to you?" asked Mr. Miller. "Jack is Cloe's husband? Where di

You're seeing Cloe again?!" said Mr. Miller as he handed Jack a threatening message."Dad, don't take Jack's word for it, Daren was busy at the company yesterday and didn't have time to go anywhere," Daren denied his father's question."You can't lie to me, Daren. Look at the message sent by Jack, this threat wouldn't have been sent by Jack if you hadn't provoked his anger by meeting your ex-wife!" said Mr. Miller, who was still in a sea of emotions, showing the contents of Jack's message.After reading the threatening message, Daren cursed Jack in his heart and promised to beat him up when he met him.Daren couldn't help it, seeing his father's anger and Jack's threat was enough to make him confess."Okay-okay, Daren did m

    After arriving at his company's office, Darren called Walt on the office phone to see him. Of course Walt immediately fulfills his call. Darren's secretary is indeed very dexterous, no wonder in a matter of minutes he is directly in front of Darren now,"Is there anything you need, Mr. Darren?" asked Walt who was standing in front of Darren with a tablet."Is there anything on my schedule in the immediate future, Walt? I would like to hold a press conference and clarify the innocence of Mr. Walter," replied Darren as he read and signed the documents piled up on his desk.Although new to the business field, Darren was quite successful in his career. Many companies automatically offered him cooperation in various fields. Of course, that kept him busy every day."Well, it looks like this week is too busy for Mr. Darren. There are also many important client appointments this week," said Walt as he stepped closer to Darren and handed him a tablet displaying his work schedule."How about ne

Darren was ready with a navy blue suit, black Docmart shoes and a classic minimalist watch from a well-known luxury brand.Darren stepped up to the press conference podium, not a single eye in the room escaped Darren."Introducing myself, Darren Miller, CEO of Corpa Miller Group, with this press conference, I am withdrawing the lawsuit against Mr. Charlotte and The G&K Johnson Group."This one sentence that Darren uttered immediately made the whole room shocked and boisterous.The journalists spontaneously asked Darren a lot of questions.

I need the information immediately," Darren said through a short phone call to Walt."Yes, Mr. Darren," Walt dutifully replied.Darren did know that AutoGroup was a fairly large automotive company. But why did this mission involve Mr. Matthew?While in the middle of his reverie, Darren was surprised by a knock on the door from Walt. His secretary seemed to be about to provide answers to his confusion. "Mr. Darren, I would like to report the information you requested. It appears that this Mr. Matthew is a former business associate of Mr. Charlotte."Exactly three years ago, it was reported that there was a business cheat between them.

    "Nothing happened between us," Cloe replied quickly without waiting for Mr. Matthew's reply.Darren was somewhat surprised. But he just silently looked at Cloe who seemed to be hiding nervousness. On the other hand, he had guessed that Cloe would behave like this.Of course Darren knew Cloe was lying. Even from the look in Mr. Matthew's eyes that implied something to Cloe, the rumors circulating about their dispute felt true."Well, there was a bit of that going on, but you've probably forgotten about it, Mrs. Cloe," Mr. Matthew replied with a chuckle.Darren felt even more intrigued after hearing Mr. Matthew's answer. His curiosity grew, wanting to get an answer as to what happened between them."Oh, what do you need to come directly and urgently, Mr. Darren?" asked Mr. Matthew who had turned his eyes towards Darren. "Actually, I feel guilty for coming without an appointment. I really needed a vehicle to get to a business meeting tomorrow," Darren replied."No problem, Mr. Darren.

    "Four years ago, Mr. Charlotte and I were business partners." Mr. Matthew began to tell Darren about his relationship with Mr. Charlotte in the past. Darren, who seemed to know that this story would be long, found the most comfortable sitting position to listen to Mr. Matthew's story carefully. Darren's eyes looked at Mr. Matthew who was sitting not far from him."In the beginning, everything went smoothly, the business innovation that we worked on together went according to plan. Our business grew rapidly and many investors started investing in our company." Darren nodded his head in understanding. He had expected Mr. Matthew to be a business partner of Mr. Charlotte. "But, over time Mr. Charlotte also became more and more ambitious to get a bigger profit from our business." Mr. Matthew continued his story.Hearing Mr. Matthew's story, Darren began to understand what his relationship with Mr. Charlotte was like. "What kind of ambition Mr. Matthew?" Darren baited with a question t

    "What do you mean Mr. Rudolf?" Darren replied by asking Mr. Rudolf back. "Who are you?" asked Mr. Rudolf as if he was interrogating Darren. "Do I have to introduce myself? You seem to know who I am," replied Darren in a casual tone. "What is your purpose in accepting Mr. Charlotte's offer to join us? Why would a member of the Miler Family, who is famous for never doing dirty business, want to join us?" Mr. Rudolf asked Darren. "I just want to learn from those of you who have experience in this field," Darren replied innocently. "Honestly, tell us your real purpose for joining us," Mr. Rudolf urged Darren to tell the truth. "I really want to learn with you how to do dirty business in a smooth and neat way. Sooner or later I'll need those skills too, right?" Darren replied still trying to show his innocence. Seeing Darren and Mr. Rudolf arguing, Mr. Charlotte could not stand it and immediately intervened to break them up. "Already Mr. Rudolf, don't argue about somethi

    Darren, still with a serious, thoughtful look on his face, continued, "I don't think Mr. Handrick would trust me that easily. Even if I said that Mr. Albern would betray him-" "He'd be more likely to believe that you were the reason he couldn't save Mr. Salvador, and Mr. Salvador killed himself?" interrupted Walt who interjected his words. Darren snapped his fingers as he nodded his head. "Yup! I need very valid evidence for Mr. Handrick to believe me. Do you have anything that shows Mr. Charlotte left with Mr. Albern?" Darren asked. "Ah, I just remembered!" Walt said. After that Darren waited for Walt to let go of the camera hanging around his neck. Darren's eyebrows shot up as Walt looked for something on the camera. "I actually took pictures of Mr. Charlotte and Mr. Albern's arrival," Walt said. "Hey, did you bring that camera with you when you did the reconnaissance on Mr. Charlotte?" Darren asked rather frantically. Walt briefly stopped his movement and move

    "How dare you treat me roughly like that?!" Cloe rebuked, her voice almost shouting. Without caring about Cloe, Jack turned his gaze back to Darren. "Hey, I don't care what business you have with Cloe, but you shouldn't have come into our lives!" "I didn't come into your life, Jack. It was you... you who made me come to you again!" Darren emphasized. Because he was already annoyed, Jack suddenly growled harshly. Jack immediately punched Darren without a signal. So that Darren's body was thrown to the side. "Mr. Darren!" Walt exclaimed worriedly. Meanwhile, Jack spontaneously moved backwards due to the pressure of his energy when he punched Darren. Jack was breathing heavily. For a few seconds, he just stared at Darren. "Mr. Darren. Are you hurt?" asked Walt as he crouched beside Darren. Darren raised his palms to signal that he was fine. Even so, his head felt dizzy. He was shocked by Jack's sudden fist attack. "Ah, bastard," Darren grumbled. "He's so strong. Is he human

    "What do you see, Mr. Darren?" From the side, Walt came over and asked. Darren immediately pointed to the part of the palm dust imprint he had witnessed. He asked Walt and Wayce to pay intense attention as well. "Do you know why someone would stick their palm to the glass of a car door?" Darren asked. Walt and Wayce were still silent, watching the part that Darren had pointed out. For a split second, they felt that this imprint, which at first glance looked like someone's palm, was very strange. How could not? Darren watched Walt and Wayce with a look that was both confused and curious. Darren wanted to know how Walt and Wayce would react. "Who did this?" asked Wayce. "If there's a palm print, all I know is that the person was trying to open the car door. Or he was tapping on the glass so he could call for help." "Asking for help?" asked Darren, who looked at Wayce in confusion. He silently wondered what she meant. Wayce immediately nodded her head. "You know, Mr. Darre

    Darren's gaze returned to Mr. Miller. With an expression that was already starting to get dizzy, he flinched for a moment. "I'll take care of Jack so he doesn't send threats to our family," Darren said. "I'm warning you again, be careful dealing with the Walter Family, Darren!" shouted Mr. Miller as Darren walked away. After getting out of the argument with Mr. Miller, Daren immediately prepared to meet Jack who had dared to threaten his father. That very morning, Daren went to Jack's company. After arriving, Daren immediately broke into Jack's room and was detained by Jack's secretary, but to no avail. Daren managed to get into Jack's room and immediately vented his anger by pounding on Jack's desk. Jack was surprised but still looked at Darren calmly. Although in fact Jack was also annoyed at Darren's actions "Can you knock on the door? I'm not even sure you have permission to enter my room," Jack said. "What do you mean sending my father such a threatening message!

    "There were no threats made to me by Mr. Charlotte. The withdrawal of the charges is purely from my own initiative, given that Mr. Charlotte has admitted his actions." A calm, thoughtful, and charming answer. Yes, Darren, always has a wise answer to any question regardless of the situation. "Aren't the companies Corpa Miller Group and The G&K Johnson Group business rivals?" "Competition in the business world is unavoidable, so I try to think more rationally in taking action and not easily get emotional just because of trivial issues," Darren answered which also became his closing statement. According to him, the three questions were enough to answer and provide sufficient information. Darren then signaled Walt to open the way and took him away from the press conference room. Suddenly Darren's departure from the stage made the journalists excited because they were not satisfied with the answers given by Darren. They then crowded towards Darren who was walking away from the

He had also gotten a message from Cloe asking him to come directly to the VVIP room. To be honest, Darren's heart was already racing. He imagined what he would talk about with Cloe later. "Mr. Darren, you must be on your guard in case Mrs. Cloe has a plan to trap you," said Walt who walked beside Darren. Darren was somewhat snapped out of his reverie. He nodded his head. "All right, Walt. You just relax, I can guard against Cloe's devious plans," Darren said with a reassuring smile.

    "You were acquitted of drug charges one week ago, but now you admit guilt. Did someone pressure you? Are you a victim of guilt and slander?" When he heard the question, Mr. Salvador suddenly stopped walking, followed by the reporters who were curious about his response. Amidst the crowd of reporters and camera flashes still shining on him, Mr. Salvador looked in the direction of the question. There stood a reporter in a plaid shirt and round glasses grinning slyly at him. "How could you think of such a question?" Mr. Salvador's ambiguous words instantly made the other journalists feel compelled to listen. "What do you mean by that, Mr. Salvador?" urged one of the other reporters to give a more detailed explanation. However, Mr. Salvador preferred to remain silent. Just as he was about to resume his stalled walk, someone shouted his name in the middle of the crowd. "Salvador!" Suddenly, what had been a crowded room fell silent. Everyone in the room fell silent, inc

    "Orphan told me. She's probably in the police car for protection right now, she's still in shock from the abuse she received. "You might as well help me protect Orphan, especially from the media. Don't let the media know that it was the drug cartel's henchmen who leaked the information, because it could derail my plan," Darren said. After talking at length with Patricia, Darren immediately approached Walt who was waiting for him in the car. During the trip, Darren, who sat in the passenger seat, closed his eyes as if he was replenishing his energy that had been a little drained all day. However, not long after his cell phone rang, displaying the name Mr. Charlotte, Darren picked it up. "Hello?" Darren's voice opened the conversation. "Hello, Darren. Where are you?" asked Mr. Charlotte matter-of-factly. "On my way home, Mr. Charlotte. What's going on?" Darren replied matter-of-factly, he was indeed on his way to the mansion. "Before you go home, can you join the meeting with
