Three days had come and gone since Edward's arrival in the bustling city of Grey, and in this relatively short period, the prospective residence he had in mind had undergone a series of remarkable transformations. It was because workforce of around 30 people had expanded to more than 400 individuals. Amid the hustle and bustle of these developments, every morning and evening, Brenda and Adele made it a ritual to engage in video calls with Edward. While these virtual connections were enjoyable and provided a semblance of closeness, they fell far short of assuaging their profound longing for his physical presence.As for the matter concerning PetroCorp Industries and the top echelons of Titan Energy, their response had been nothing short of rapid and resolute. Edward's colossal $5 trillion investment had proven to be the linchpin that greased the wheels of their efforts to secure coveted drilling rights in one of Chia's most fiercely contested regions. And this morning, like every mor

President Bill, still visibly surprised by Edward's direct approach, hesitated for a moment. He looked at Eva, who had vouched for Edward's trustworthiness, and took a deep breath. It was evident that he carried a heavy burden, and the weight of his position had taken a toll on him.After a moment of contemplation, President Bill began to speak. "Mr. Edward, you must understand the situation I find myself in. I hold a position of power, but it's a facade. I have no real authority. I'm beholden to a group of wealthy oligarchs who pull the strings behind the scenes. They control my every move, and I'm merely a puppet following their orders."He continued, his tone heavy with the weight of his confession. "I want to step down from this role, but my own party won't allow it. They've made it clear that if I try to defy them, they'll harm my family. I'm trapped, Mr. Edward, and I don't see a way out."As President Bill spoke, there was a profound sense of vulnerability. It was clear that he

Edward and Robert exchanged a look of astonishment, their eyebrows shooting up in surprise."Your... granddaughter?" Edward stammered. He couldn't hide the disbelief in his voice.Bill nodded, a mix of pride and fondness in his eyes as he spoke of Eva. "There are powerful people who would exploit any weakness, any connection, to manipulate me. I couldn't bear the thought of Eva being used as a pawn in their political games."Eva chimed in, her expression touched by her grandfather's words. "Grandpa decided to keep my identity hidden from the public and the media by faking my death. He wanted to protect me from the chaos and scrutiny that came with being part of our family. That's why I attended Fairview High School under a different fsmily name that year."Edward nodded in understanding, his initial confusion now replaced with clarity. He admired President Bill's commitment to protecting his granddaughter and understood why her true identity had to remain a closely guarded secret.Tur

Edward was now in a tricky situation, trying to explain Eva's presence to Adele without revealing too much. He said, "She's... um, a colleague. We're working on a project together. That's all."Adele's eyes narrowed as she processed Edward's explanation. "A colleague? Working on a project? At this hour? Edward, you can't expect me to believe that so easily. What kind of project is this?"Edward was acutely aware of Adele's growing suspicion, and he chose his words carefully. "It's a confidential project, and it involves some sensitive information. I promise I'll explain everything to you soon, but for now, I need your trust, okay?"She still seemed unconvinced but decided not to press further for the time being. "Alright, I'll trust you on this. Just don't forget our plans for the weekend, okay?"Edward nodded, relieved that Adele didn't dig deeper into the matter. "I won't forget, I promise."As the conversation with Adele came to an end, Edward returned to the dining table, where Ev

Eva was initially taken aback by Robert's revelation, but then a sense of relief washed over her. To her, it didn't matter how many girlfriends Edward had. The crucial point was that he wasn't married. She couldn't help but chuckle at Robert's accidental disclosure. "Well, that's good to know. Thank you, Robert. You've been very helpful."Robert, realizing he had shared more than he intended, blushed slightly. "My apologies, Miss Eva. I'll go and wake up Boss now."With that, Robert quickly excused himself and headed to Edward's room. He wondered how Edward would react when he found out about their conversation.Edward, still half-asleep, listened to Robert's report about Eva's request to go shopping and make a salon appointment. Although he was hesitant about Eva leaving the house, he recognized the importance of her preparations for the mission.So, Edward instructed Robert to summon the city of Grey's finest makeup and styling team, ensuring Eva would have the best beauty experts

Edward didn't stop there, though. He continued to express his appreciation for Eva's presence and appearance. "But seriously, you've left me quite speechless right now."He did not go overboard with his words.Her long blonde hair flowed down her slender neck like strands of liquid gold, and her nose, perfectly sculpted, gave her an air of elegance. Yet, it was her eyes that held him captive – deep, mesmerizing pools of blue that seemed to hold the secrets of the universe.Plus, Eva's simple yet captivating gown accentuated her every curve, showcasing a figure that could rival any work of art. As Edward continued to gaze at her, he couldn't help but think that she was a vision of perfection.Eva blushed even deeper, her heart racing at Edward's words. It was as if the world around them had faded, leaving only the two of them in that moment.However, she softly replied, "As much as your words warm my heart, please don't praise me too much. I wouldn't want to misinterpret your intention

The sudden confrontation caught the attention of nearby guests, and a hushed silence fell over the area as they observed the unfolding drama. Eva clearly displeased with Sam's possessiveness and forceful behavior. With a swift motion, she pushed Sam's hand off Edward's shoulder and glared at him, her voice laced with anger. "What do you think you're doing, Sam?"Sam, though momentarily caught off guard, stayed composed. He gave Edward a measured look before replying, "I just want to know who this man is, Eva. We haven't seen each other in a while, but now you show up with a stranger."Eva's eyes narrowed as she responded firmly, "Whoever he is, it's none of your business. You have no right to manhandle him like that."Edward, though a bit surprised by the sudden turn of events, remained composed. He placed a calming hand on Eva's arm and said in a low tone, "It's okay. Let's not make a scene. We're here to enjoy the event, remember?"Eva, still upset but realizing that making a scene

Eva took a moment to introduce Edward, her voice clear and confident. "Governor Rayburn and everyone, I'd like you to meet Edward, the sole owner of Titan Energy."The moment those words left her lips, a ripple of astonishment coursed through the room. Whispers spread like wildfire, and all eyes turned towards Edward. Among those taken aback was Sam, who was seated not far from Governor Simon Rayburn. Sam abruptly stood up, his disbelief evident. He knew full well that Mr. Robert, the CEO and owner of Titan Energy, held that prestigious position.In a voice dripping with sarcasm, Sam exclaimed, "Is that so? Titan Energy's owner, you say? Because the last time I checked, Mr. Robert was the CEO and owner. Eva, please, do not trust his words or any man like him. He's surely a fraud, and he must have approached you with bad intentions."Eva's eyes flickered with a mix of anger and a desire to retort, especially considering her disdain for Sam's behavior. She was on the verge of respondin
