From the beginning, Phill didn't like how Grace Philip treated Taylor; he thought it was too condescending.

That being said, he felt powerless. Each person only paid $500 for dinner at the Happy Garden Restaurant, which was a lot of money. The rest was taken care of by Hall Lee, who is a junior manager at a well-known company.

That's why Phill decided to be quiet.

It was Grace's idea that Taylor worked as a singer at the cafe, and Hall Lee saw this as a chance to show his friends how much better he was than them.

"So, Taylor, you play music for a living?" Have you ever had a private meal at a fancy place like this? Too many times have I had a good meal here. So close is this restaurant's owner to the Smith Group, where I work!"

People were thrilled when Hall Lee said he was related to the diner owner, and him friends gave him even more praise. However, Taylor didn't seem to be interested in the story. "Great... you come to eat for free and enjoy our glory at this high-class restaurant

    All his friends were stunned when Theresia Smith greeted Taylor with great respect. "This beautiful girl knows Taylor?" "Didn't I hear wrong? It should be Hall Lee, not Taylor!" That was the question in her friend's heart at that moment. "Miss Theresia... I was just having dinner with my friend here. I apologize for making you leave the guests in the VVIP room, and coming to greet me," Taylor said politely. "Ah, it's okay. This is just a routine meeting with the staff in our company!" said Theresia. Theresia immediately took an empty chair and sat next to Taylor without being asked. The situation at the dining table instantly turned into silence. No one could speak. Everyone felt oppressed by this beautiful and charming girl. Meanwhile, the arrival of Theresia Smith, who sat next to Taylor, caused a sense of jealousy in Hall Lee's heart. Hall Lee had fallen in love From the beginning of Theresia Smith's appearance.

    It was a surprise when Hall Lee's face went grim. He then said, "Guys, the bill for the food and drinks was too high." The cost of Screaming Eagle wine is too high. Because of this, I ask that you pay more in dues. Right now, the amount of money on my ATM card is not enough to cover the whole price.When he asked Theresia Smith to pick out their wine, Hall Lee was cocky but didn't look bad about it.Wines in this Happy Garden Restaurant, like Moët & Chandon or Veuve Clicquot, cost between $50 and $150. They can also choose very expensive wines, such as Chateau Lafite Rothschild or Chateau Margaux, which cost between $500 and $1000.Hall Lee forgot that Happy Garden is a fancy restaurant because he was so eager to impress Miss Theresia Smith. It was a mistake to ask Theresia Smith to pick the best wine in its league.When Hall Lee understood what he had done wrong, his face turned pale. Without any shame, he told Taylor, "At first, I thought I would treat you all. But who would have th

    This Grace Philip really was a brat. Even after being treated with Taylor's money, her curiosity remained. She said with curiosity.How on earth could Taylor's ATM card cover all of our expenses? It's not a negligible sum," Grace Philip exclaimed. Once Grace Philip realized Taylor could afford the expensive dinner and drinks, she became interested in getting to know her. She thought of Hall Lee immediately; she thought him to be stingy and impoverished."Miss Theresia actually owns this card, not me," stated a seemingly indifferent Taylor.+++Hall Lee, meantime, still stunned, quickly called a halt to the affair before he could be further disgraced.Fear reddened his face as he remembered how he had attempted to woo Miss Theresia, even jokingly promising to treat Theresia Smith, the daughter of the company's owner and CEO Smith.Recalling that Lee vanished right away after bidding Hall farewell.Now that Taylor's reunion was over, everyone drove off in their own cars.Taylor went str

Taylor was even more repulsed by Amanda when he heard her whining voice.She claimed that she was aloof and difficult to entice by males.

Finally, I can live in a big house and play music loudly without disturbing Dad!"

    Taylor had threatened David Michel and Amanda Lockhart, and they had just returned home. Robert McGill opened the door to the house about that same moment. He asked, looking for David, who had been spotted with a woman."Where are your cousin David and his girlfriend, Taylor? Why didn't they greet me when they entered the house?" Robert McGills' expression became perplexed. David Michel was, after all, the offspring of his brother and his nephew. Robert secretly wished that he would one day reintegrate into the McGills family, even after being kicked out.Without bothering to tell him about the recent verbal altercation, Taylor simply shrugged his shoulders. He skillfully sidestepped Robert's notice."So, how went Daisy's arranged House Tour? When are you guys going to move in?"Robert McGills ignored his inquiry right away.

    It was a fact that Joseph Hodges was enthralled by Taylor's painstakingly detailed notes on the winemaking formula. The fermentation needed for their basic pilot studies was far less than that of most wineries' typical procedure. It took only hours to ferment using Taylor's recipe, which is an amazing accomplishment. Following his admiring taste of the fermented flavors, Joseph Hodges exclaimed, "This is a wonder of the world that I've only encountered once!" With a deep respect and curious expression, Joseph Hodges stated, "I don't know what the secret behind this is, but the recipe you gave me triggers the Saccharomyces cerevisiae to work rapidly." Joseph Hodges shakes the white liquid, takes a gulp, then shuts his eyes. It's quite smooth, although the alcohol content is significant. He exclaimed, "The taste is comparable to a comparable product from a reputable company that has been aged for five years." Joseph Hodges said, "With all due respect, Miss Amanda, I am very impresse

    The Product Trial

    For someone who was about to become wealthy, like Zack Lockhart, it was simple to set up a food or beverage factory. The company's wine production activities were simple as long as a business license was secured. Zack Lockhart, the CEO and third richest person in Accomont City, controls a substantial amount of real estate, encompassing anything from homes and stores to grand office buildings. Finding a structure to house a factory is therefore not difficult. A number of structures were identified as factories that were not utilized in the growth of Lockhart Pharmaceutical. Furthermore, all of the factory's equipment—which is mostly used to produce drugs—was readily available and just required to be installed in accordance with the requirements and operations of the facility. On the third day following the meeting with Amanda Lockhart, there was a phone call. With a slight smile on his lips, Taylor gazed at the call on his mobile phone screen. "Amanda Lockhart?" he asked himself in

    The Final Scene.

    Callum Ma did not show any symptoms of giving up when the Electric Power Stick was aimed at him. Throughout the entire Accomont City, he was regarded as a crafty, sly, and ingenious young master. After all, he had often escaped the jaws of death thanks to his cleverness. He was looking at the flare of electricity at the end of Simon McGills' stick at this critical moment, trying to figure out how to get out of his jam. Still, he doesn't realize that where he is right now is like an egg waiting to be smashed against a hard stone. Simon McGills is an unforgiving man. Simon McGills was a cruel guy, despite his outwardly refined appearance. He had studied the art of pouring tea, which needed a high level of artistry and noble character. He would not think twice about exacting retribution on anyone who had harmed him or his family.

    The ambiance of the Purnama Coffee Shop on the corner of Accomont City abruptly shifted when every customer fell silent. Nothing could be heard, and the air appeared to freeze. They had all been berating Taylor loudly earlier. They declared Taylor to be a fraud who never had his degree from the Pharmacy Institute. Still, he presented himself as an alchemist. They contended that it was nonsensical for Taylor to go up against Edward Morse, the Awrossa City Alchemist with an A rating.In the meantime, Callum Ma, who appeared to be passing out after losing a wager against Simon McGills, was not. Callum Ma orchestrated this entire deception in order to deceive others around him.Callum Ma stepped quickly in quiet.

    Simon McGills' face turned angry when the crowd insulted Taylor. "How could a young kid from a bankrupt home become an alchemist? He was later expelled from Accomont University and never finiHed his education at the pharmacy department there. One of the patrons at the coffee shop made fun of someone by saying, "You can't make up stories that don't make sense!" "If it's true that Taylor, the son of Robert McGills, is an alchemist, then show me proof of one of his creations that has gained notoriety in Accomont City," said another. I'll stake you $20,000 on Taylor having no achievements at all and having duped the CEO of Lockhart Company into accepting his word!" a young man spoke with assurance.

    Underground Gossip

    The day following Taylor and Amanda Lockhart's furious altercation, a Lockhart Pharmaceuticals representative was hustling around the Accomont Municipal Office. With serious expressions and intense focus, they handled a variety of private corporate letters and permits, almost as they were doing a challenging problem. The Lockhart Company's operations were undoubtedly observed by other businesses, particularly the Erricson Company. The business community in Accomont City had started to believe something was being prepared ever since the Erricson Company hired an Alchemist from Awrossa City to work directly under CEO Abraham Erricson. The expectation in the city seemed to resonate through the air. "Hi, Ma'am Manager. I recently seen a Lockhart Company officer enter my workplace. It appears that he is handling a company's licensing. To you, is this news significant?" The voice on the phone was that of a spy. Whereas Manager Ma worked as a manager at Erricson Pharmaceutical Company, he

    David Michel and Melissa Erricson exited the opulent and esteemed Asian restaurant after their meeting. The room's atmosphere instantly returned to its previous warm and inviting state; it no longer felt as hot and strained as it had when they were still there. But Taylor could see right through Amanda Lockhart's apparent earnest attempts to keep a composed demeanor. A wave of restlessness washed over her, and a foggy cloud continued to loom over her face, suggesting that she might still harbor anxiety. When Taylor saw this, he sympathized. In an attempt to ease any ice that might still be a touch stiff, he grabbed the initiative right away and began discussing the project he would be working on with the Lockhart Company. "Miss Amanda," Taylor remarked in a kind and gentle voice, "I'm thinking of a fresh notion, one that the Erricson Company might not have considered in its partnership with Alchemist Edward Morse. I still have my doubts, though. Is the Lockhart Company open to assis
