“I meant to tell you today, but he was busy. Before I had the chance, he slipped away.”Heidi replied.“Come, come—tell Grandpa in detail about this bell. It belongs to you, yet you don’t remember it at all.”“And this thing—it looks like something from a temple. I had people search every temple around Nova City, but none could identify its origin. So where exactly did these bells come from?”Old Mr. Cooper was intensely curious.Heidi then explained everything to Old Mr. Cooper in detail—the origin of the bells, along with all the strange coincidences and twists of fate surrounding them.After hearing her out, Old Mr. Cooper nodded slowly in understanding.“So that’s how it is… no wonder, no wonder!”“You and Joseph are bound by fate—and yet so much of it is woven through sheer coincidence!”He couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.“That’s right.”Heidi replied calmly.“And how do you plan to tell Joseph?”Old Mr. Cooper asked, turning the small bell over in his hand.“How else? I’ll

“Killing someone in Elysia is no easy matter.”“The experts we can currently mobilize are nearly exhausted. The top assassins on the rankings have already been swept clean.”“Autumnless, ranked first among them, is stationed in Nova City. No matter how many we send, it will make no difference.”“Of course, if any of you are eager to try your luck in Nova City, you are more than welcome. I have always admired courage.”“If any of you go and fail to return, I will see that your wives and children are well cared for.”Minotaur’s gaze swept slowly across the room, his words laden with implication.At once, the room fell into an awkward stillness.Sending others was one thing—but volunteering oneself was quite another.Entering Elysia alone was already a formidable challenge, let alone carrying out an assassination within its borders.Even professional killers had gone and never returned. Compared to them, what chance did these men have?The answer was obvious.For a moment, no one spoke.

“Professor Alvarez is indeed an admirable person. We share an office, and when I first arrived, she helped me tremendously.”Joseph nodded slightly.“That’s good to hear.”“You’re both young and exceptionally talented—you should have plenty in common.”Blake Morgan said with a smile.“It’s… not particularly remarkable.”Joseph replied noncommittally.“Well then, we’ll part ways here. To be honest, things have been quite busy lately. It’s not just your Uncle Mason—even I’ve been tied up.”As he spoke, they had already reached the gates of the Cooper family estate, where their cars were parked.“Alright, take care on your way.”Joseph waved in farewell, watching as Blake Morgan got into his car and drove off. Only then did he enter his own vehicle.As he did, Heidi crossed his mind.They had come today strictly for business, and he had barely exchanged more than a few words with her.Still, he had no intention of lingering at the Cooper residence. There would be another time to see the

“In truth, my proposal isn’t anything particularly unusual. The shareholding can remain as it is, but in terms of profit distribution, each of you could take around thirty-five percent.”Joseph said plainly.“That would mean equal shares but unequal rights.”Blake Morgan immediately grasped his meaning.“But is that really appropriate?”old Mr. Cooper seemed to weigh the idea.“There’s nothing inappropriate about it. The company is being funded primarily by the Morgan and Cooper families. Without your investment, there would be no new company to speak of.”“It’s only fair that you receive a larger share of the profits.”Joseph said to them.Blake Morgan and old Mr. Cooper exchanged a glance, then both nodded slightly.“Since Joseph has put it this way… old Morgan?”old Mr. Cooper took the lead in responding.“Then it’s settled.”“I’ll have the relevant documents prepared by my team, and we can proceed with the signing.”“As for the company’s establishment and operations, we’ll leave t

“Hahaha, excellent—truly excellent!”“There’s something familiar about the taste, though. A certain familiarity I can’t quite place.”Blake Morgan laughed heartily as he offered his assessment.“Familiar in what way?”old Mr. Cooper asked, puzzled.“It reminds me a bit of Joseph’s cooking. Not quite at his level, perhaps, but clearly from the same school.”Blake Morgan said meaningfully.At this remark, Heidi couldn’t help but glance at Joseph, her gaze carrying a hint of unspoken warmth.“Ahem… perhaps it’s because Heidi is used to eating my cooking. Over time, the dishes she makes have naturally come to resemble mine in flavor.”“I imagine it’s the same with Alice.”Joseph said, sounding slightly embarrassed.“Is that so? It seems living closely with someone does leave its mark.”Blake Morgan mused.“Well then, old Morgan, you must have had Joseph cook for you quite often.”“You’re a fortunate man—fine food, a glass of wine in hand.”“Unlike me—I’ve practically forgotten what wine e

“Of course, the matters at hand are the most important.”“Everything else can wait, but what lies before us must be handled well.”“This isn’t just an opportunity for our own growth—our progress is equally vital to Joseph. It cannot be taken lightly.”old Mr. Cooper spoke with solemn emphasis.“I understand.”Fiona nodded gently.“That’s enough—there’s no need for me to say more.”“As for what comes next, I believe you already know what to do.”“You’re no longer a child. Many things require your own judgment now.”“Come, let’s head to the hall.”old Mr. Cooper added.“Alright.”Fiona responded, pushing his wheelchair toward the dining hall.By the time Joseph reached the entrance of the Cooper family’s old residence, Blake Morgan’s car happened to arrive as well.As Blake Morgan stepped out, he spotted Joseph immediately.“Joseph, did you just arrive too?”he asked.“I’ve been here for a while. I was concerned you might not be familiar with the place, so I waited to walk you in.”Jose
