"Until now, Eleanor has still not been touched by another man. How many children of prestigious families have come to the Radisson household to propose, and haven’t they all been turned away by me?" Mrs. Radisson said meaningfully: "Brother six, now Wolfgang wants to cancel the betrothal. You also say nothing, doing so is somewhat improper."Hearing his cousin speak, Oswald picked up his tea cup to enjoy, pondering deeply."Oh, my dear sister, I really cannot interfere in Wolfgang's matters. Today's visit is also to clarify with you, to avoid future resentment between our two families.” Oswald said sternly: "As for him, I always respect Wolfgang's wishes. Matters of the young people should be decided by themselves.""That's not right, brother six, are our families ordinary that a betrothal can be canceled at will? Then, what face does the Radisson household have left? Who can Eleanor marry then?" Mrs. Radisson expressed her dissatisfaction."Young people’s matters, nowadays no advice
Otherwise, with the Radisson family's background, why would they need to negotiate and make peace with such a young man?Theophilus remained emotionless, silent without a word."What now? Our Radisson family has already made concessions. Wolfgang, this is the most peaceful solution.” Mrs. Radisson sternly continued: "If you agree, the Radisson family will certainly offer full support. From now on, I will have Eleanor stay by your side, the two of you living closely together, and in time, affection will naturally develop."At this point, Eleanor blushed, casting longing glances at Theophilus.Eleanor didn't know why, but after seeing Theophilus's aura, looking at other men felt like seeing a bunch of incompetents, utterly uninteresting.Moreover, since she was young, she had been taught about her betrothal to the Alexander family, and she had always kept this in mind.Besides, being of noble birth, the darling of Radiant Harbor, there were very few men who could catch her eye.But the
Old Mrs. Radisson also showed a reluctant expression, unable to help but shake her head.The elders of the Radisson family had spoken, really spoiling this precious granddaughter too much."Wolfgang, if the Radisson family and Eleanor have said so, and agreed to cancel the engagement peacefully, then just nod your head, don't refuse anymore.” Oswald said seriously.He also felt somewhat reluctant.Theophilus thought silently for a moment then said: "Okay.""I'll go when I have some free time.""Okay.” Eleanor nodded happily, then bowed her head, her expression somewhat complicated."Then Grandpa, I'll wait for you in the side hall. You explain the cancellation of the engagement to Old Mr. and Mrs. Radisson.” Theophilus said."Um.” Oswald nodded.This was the engagement they decided years ago, naturally, they should officially cancel it.This would also be more proper and formal.Theophilus turned and left, heading towards the Radisson family's guest reception side hall.Watching Theop
"I've already deployed our men; we can act at any moment.” Spencer told him."Young Master Alexander, I can also take action at any moment.” Dorian's face was very serious, his voice slightly excited.He understood very well that this might be considered the first important task Theophilus had assigned to him.The Aetherians that Theophilus had him follow before were not considered strong, they could be killed instantly if desired.But the Aurora law enforcers should not be underestimated."I will personally oversee tonight.” Theophilus said gravely: “Mr. Stewart, go through the intelligence first, let them head to the location first.""Yes!"Dorian accepted the order, taking the black box into the office to prepare and review the documents inside.At that moment, Spencer's phone suddenly rang; he glanced at the caller ID, his eyes showing surprise."Young Master Alexander, this is....” Spencer hesitated.Theophilus felt it strange and asked: “Who is calling?"This was Spencer's highl
Theophilus turned to look at Porter and Teacher Allard, his face showing no emotion, only his eyes emitted a cold aura."Teacher Allard. You say Emily doesn't respect the teacher, hitting her classmates?" Theophilus asked indifferently: “Then, I'd like to hear how this child disrespected the teacher and how she hit her classmate.""What? What kind of attitude is that? Are you doubting us teachers?" Teacher Allard said with dissatisfaction: “Understand clearly, I am a professional teacher, and what are you? Do you think you know better than us about educating students?""This child is beyond help! Poor performance, and she even talked back to me earlier!" Teacher Allard was defiant: “Anyway, my class does not accept such students. Besides, you better explain clearly to Quinn's parents, hitting their child like this!""Oh? Is this the attitude of Teacher Allard, correct?" Theophilus coldly turned to look at Porter."You want an explanation? Then tell me, how was your son hit?" Theophilu
Porter's face immediately turned pale, sweating from pain, he looked at Theophilus in disbelief.He had not expected that this young man, who was physically smaller than him, could have such strength."Let go of your hands! You idiot, how dare you do this to my husband? Do you dare to hit people? Do you know how much power my husband has in the old town?" Porter's wife scolded angrily."Ah!"Theophilus chuckled coldly, twisted the arm again, tying Porter's hands together, then flipped him in the air in a circle, forcing him to kneel on the ground, hands tied behind his back."Ouch!"Porter cried out in pain, his face a mix of anger and fear, held in Theophilus's grip, soon his whole body went numb, devoid of any strength."Release Mr. Byrne immediately!""You kid, I warn you, you can't afford to offend Mr. Byrne's status!"At this moment, the security guards standing outside the office, seeing their boss being captured, hurriedly warned."What are you doing? This is a school, if you d
"Chairman Ward, what's the matter with you? My business is not small, are you trying to embarrass me? Who is this Jake kid that you respect him so much?" Porter reluctantly asked.In this old city, he considered himself a person of the upper class with a luxurious lifestyle.Shouldn't Murray give him some face?"Chairman Ward, I'm a person of some standing here, don't I deserve some respect?"Slap!Before Porter could finish, Colin approached and slapped him across the face."What face do you have? A person of standing? Do you know who I am?" Colin grabbed Porter's head, glaring at him angrily."Ouch!" Seeing Colin's fierce demeanor, Porter was so scared he couldn't speak."Who are you? How dare you slap someone like that!" Mrs. Porter questioned defiantly."This gentleman is Colin of the High Mountain Corporation, Chairman Ames. Porter, you should know who that is, right?" Murray looked at Porter coldly, introducing him."Huh? Colin, Mr. Ames?""What!" Hearing Murray reveal Colin's b
At that moment, Colin, followed by two bodyguards, slowly walked over."Young Master Alexander, the matter has been handled. I've arranged for Porter's family to leave Radiant Harbor tonight, sending them to one of Mr. Brown's mining companies in Africa, to have them work in the mines.” Colin reported respectfully behind Theophilus."How's the reorganization of the old city's grey areas I asked for last time coming along?" Theophilus inquired indifferently.Sweat beaded on Colin's forehead: "Wolfgang, I've notified all my subordinates, any illegal activities will be immediately banned."Theophilus nodded slightly, indifferently saying: “There are many ways to make money in the world, don't overdo it. You just need to maintain control in the industry.""I understand, I will follow your advice.” Colin nodded respectfully.That was all Theophilus said.But Colin had understood.Since returning to Radiant Harbor, Theophilus had supported Mr. Brown to become the number one or two boss of R
