"Hasn't grandpa always taught us to be grateful? Mr. Jake is a kind and good person, now he's in trouble, our Gonzalez family should help him. Besides, he's willing to pay the price," Louise pleaded."Ha ha ha…" Winfred burst into hearty laughter, looking at Louise with kind eyes and then patting her head."Louise, these past few days you've been incessantly talking about this Mr. Jake, that's Theophilus, right?" Winfred's eyes gleamed with intelligence, he laughed heartily: "You've only interacted with this Jake kid a few times and you're already speaking up for him? Mr. Jake? It seems that kid also has some skills.""Grandpa, you…" Louise's face turned red, she stammered: "Anyway, I feel we should help him.""How dare you, Louise, how are you speaking to grandpa?" the Oldest brother of the Gonzalez family scolded: "Let me tell you, this is a serious family matter, if you don't understand, then don't speak recklessly.""Whether it's a big matter or a small one, I only know one thing,
The next day.Radiant Harbor, Mid International Airport.Vincent led a few young men in suits and a convoy of cars, respectfully waiting outside the airport.Joaquin and the Gonzalez family disembarked from the plane and were taken to the Mid hotel.This was also the place where Theophilus had arranged to meet Joaquin.The Mid hotel had been privately booked, with only a team of young men in suits standing along the long corridor.In the most luxurious hall located in the center of the twenty-eighth floor.Theophilus sat upright at the dining table, his face very serious, his fingers lightly tapping on the table surface.Dai and the team leader stood behind him, their faces a mix of anticipation and complexity.Both of them knew the guests Theophilus had invited were from the Gonzalez family of Trấn Nam, bringing the divine medicine that could save Mr. Alexander's life.Honestly, this was the first time they saw such a scene.Theophilus was holding a reception for the guests.This was
Theophilus's eyes deepened as he scrutinized Arnold once again.Worthy of being Winfred's eldest son from Quantum Ridge, he was no simple character.Had Arnold not shown his hand, Theophilus would not have felt the presence of such a supreme master before him.Just a glance was enough for Theophilus to conclude.Arnold, at the very least, could be ranked in the Earth tier of the reclusive world, a level above Austin and Nameless.No wonder Joaquin was at a loss for words in front of him, and no wonder he dared to be so forthright in his presence."Theophilus, it's not that I look down on you. But this is a great favor my father is offering you, wanting to marry his precious granddaughter to you, considering the Dragon Tongue flower as her dowry," Arnold said coldly: "From what I see, you're utterly unworthy of the Dragon Tongue flower, and unworthy of entering the Gonzalez family!"Theophilus responded with a nonchalant smile towards Arnold: "Then what do you think would make someone
It turns out father had planned everything in advance, even instructing Louise. In the end, as a senior like him, he had to let his niece settle the matter, finding a way to step down gracefully. At this moment, he truly wished there was a hole to crawl into."Then I'll have to trouble Louise. With time being of the essence, let's head to Dreamland Crest Mountain immediately," Theophilus seriously said.He didn't care about Elder Gonzalez's calculations; his grandfather's illness couldn't be delayed, and the medicine had to be made immediately."Not a problem at all, Mr. Jake. Let me accompany you," Louise obediently nodded, stealing glances at Theophilus, her face blushing.Theophilus, feeling a bit awkward under her gaze, shifted his eyes and signaled the team leader, then turned to leave for the lobby."To the Gonzalez family directors, I have offended you today! But the kindness of the Gonzalez family, I will engrave in my heart. The urgency of the matter forced me to act so hasti
"Louise, I have matters to attend to and can no longer entertain you. Please inform your father that I will host a party soon and invite both you and him.” Theophilus announced to her before turning to walk down the stairs.Louise obediently nodded, her gaze lingering on Theophilus's departing figure.He walked downstairs, where Vincent was seated, his face betraying his anxiety."Wolfgang, have you completely cured the old man's illness?" Vincent stood up to ask."The condition of the family elder has stabilized, but it has not yet been fully cured.” Theophilus's eyes deepened: "We must find Divine, the behind-the-scenes manager of Zenith Nexus Company.""That's good, then.” Vincent nodded: "Wolfgang, Zenith Nexus Company has openly collaborated with the Panchak family, and even the Seven Star Corporation, they will organize a press conference.""Those people are too arrogant, ignoring Wolfgang completely. They even spread rumors that the elder was critically ill, even claiming he ha
The master Spencer mentioned is indeed secretly protecting Cromir Anna, truly possessing extraordinary strength.However, since I've paved a way for the Cromir family in Radiant Harbor, and they are still cooperating, there's no need for concern."I understand.” Spencer respectfully nodded."Spencer, this time I've called you to Radiant Harbor because there's an important task I want you to undertake.” Theophilus looked at Spencer and said seriously."Go and thoroughly investigate the dark forces of the Island Nation Aetheria, see which forces have a Division in Radiant Harbor Empyria, and whether there have been any recent activities.” Theophilus spoke slowly: "Additionally, ambush in Radiant Harbor, investigate all Aetherians with suspicious movements in Radiant Harbor."“Must find an Aetherian known as Divine in the shortest time possible.""Aetheria?" Spencer was surprised, saying: “Master, I have been to Aetheria once, and from what I know, the mystical forces in Aetheria consist
The people walking beside Malcolm all took turns speaking up for Malcolm, taunting Theophilus without any politeness.Each of them wore an extremely superior look on their faces, their eyes also radiated utter disdain.Indeed, the people walking beside Malcolm, although not comparable to the hundred-billion-asset tycoon family like the Washingtons, each had a background far from ordinary.At the very least, these young people had their own wealth and status.Compared to someone who looked like a lowly salaried worker at the bottom of society, what right did he have to compare with them? He was just useless."Oh, the Washington family from Jiangzhou?" Theophilus sneered, taking a sip of red wine before shaking his head.Theophilus had heard of the Washington family, a powerful force among the top families in Radiant Harbor, only slightly less established than the five major families.The Washington family was closely affiliated with the Radisson Corporation in Radiant Harbor, as if the
As they spoke, Theophilus headed towards the luxurious corridor leading to the party room. Louise followed closely behind, with Hades also discreetly following."Ha, still talking big here. Let's see how embarrassed you get later.” Malcolm laughed coldly, his face full of disdain.In the Grand Radiance Hotel, he had a private exhibition room.This time, he had invited elite figures to a wine party organized in this room.Malcolm enjoys collecting luxury cars, fine watches, and other high-end items. All are stored in a display room to showcase his wealth and superiority.Theophilus is still pretending, but soon, when everything is revealed, let's see if this useless guy has any face left."Malcolm, why do you stop us from taking action? This useless guy, just a word from you, and I'll make him kneel on the ground like a dead dog.""Exactly! Malcolm, someone as useless as Theophilus clearly belongs to the salaried worker class without money or status, a flick of the wrist could end him.
