After the incident at the company, Vance revealed the plot to take over the Hughes family's assets. Therefore, Hilary was still angry with Vance for the time being."Vance, from now on, our two families have no relationship other than being business partners. Let's not mention our past as lovers again!" Michael and Julie agreed with Hilary’s decision, nodding their heads and looking at each other. Michael spoke up, "Vance, Hilary is the jewel of our family. You and your parents deceived us and her feelings. This is unacceptable to us. Therefore, I completely agree with Hilary that our two families only have a business relationship, nothing more!"Vance's forehead was covered in cold sweat after hearing this. He didn't have any feelings for Hilary, but he was worried that too many people had heard about his family's shameful secrets. Where could he and his parents still show their faces?The only solution now was to argue with Hilary, using reason and logic to confuse the listeners an
Upon hearing Daniel’s singing, Sophia felt even more invigorated, knowing that Daniel was happy at the moment. With that in mind, she felt that her efforts in cooking were worth it. As dinner was served, Sophia opened a bottle of vintage red wine. Just by looking at the label and production date, one could tell that it was a special bottle. After pouring the wine, Sophia said, "Today is my first time cooking. From now on, I won't be taking your salary as a full-time chef anymore, because I'II be cooking myself and won't be exploiting you anymore.""That's great. It's good to see that you're becoming more approachable," Daniel praised. Sophia was surprised, "Have I been unapproachable for the past five years?""Yes, you always seemed to be high and mighty, making people feel like you were out of reach. It's only today that I feel like I can be friends with you," Daniel explained. Sophia felt uneasy, realizing that Gwen’s words had brought her closer to Daniel. She might need to ask for
"Could it be that Daniel is such a big obstacle?""What ability does he have? He's just a waste, at most he's good at sweet-talking!""Hehe, that kind of ability, who doesn't know about it!"Daniel heard it but didn't care. When Gwen heard the discussion at work, she smiled knowing that she had played a certain role in convincing Sophia.After a few weeks, Sophia’s cooking skills had improved greatly. However, trouble came when she was immersed in her culinary skills. Gwen’s father, jewelry and antique shop officially merged with the antique business of Rafael. Gwen invited Daniel and Sophia to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Daniel and Sophia happily agreed to go.When the two arrived at Gwen’s father's jewelry and antique shop, Gwen’s depression had already lifted. She and her father welcomed the guests with smiles on their faces.Unexpectedly, Daniel received unprecedented hospitality at Gwen’s father's house because he had helped Rafael subdue the three thugs Reji, Jayce, and
Upon arriving at the hotel, Gwen’s father and his friends welcomed Daniel with applause.There was an empty seat next to Gwen’s father, and he gestured for Daniel to sit with him. Daniel was no longer seen as useless by the others because of Gwen’s father's support. As they say, love me, love my dog.Just then, a person walked in and took the lead. Daniel was surprised to see that it was John. "What are you doing here?" asked Sophia, knowing that he was not a friendly person.John was smoking a cigar and had a haughty expression on his face. He didn't even bother to acknowledge the people in front of him. Behind him were Praise and a very strong man. This strong man was Kenneth Storm, who looked even more disdainful.However, when he met Daniel’s gaze, he felt a little uneasy. At the ribbon-cutting ceremony at noon, he didn't get any advantage at all. Daniel was sabotaging him!Finally, the bald man and the scarred man walked in. Everyone knew that these people were not here to celebr
At the dinner party, Daniel noticed that Sophia did not drink a drop of alcohol. He knew her thoughts and had already had a drink himself. It was a time of trouble, and someone had to refrain from drinking!Sophia glanced at him and blinked her eyes as if to say, "Daniel, you drink. One person not drinking is enough.Daniel took a deep breath and didn't refuseto drink for the rest of the night. Gwen’s father was amazed by Daniel’s ability to hold his liquor. He had never seen anyone like him before. As everyone was leaving, three bodyguards approached Daniel with a worried look on their faces. They all agreed that they still couldn't handle Kenneth Storm Tendon's muscle and asked Daniel for advice.Daniel gave them a suggestion: "When facing Kenneth Storm, don't stand together. One person uses palm strikes while the other two attack." The three men nodded and thanked him. Sophia drove, and Daniel sat in the passenger seat as they headed home. Daniel was drunk and fell asleep on the s
Kenneth was angry, feeling that Tatum's methods were too underhanded. Kenneth had no problem dealing with these guards with his methods. Kenneth showed no signs of panic. Tatum glanced at Kenneth and said,"About the 10 million from earlier, have you paid up?"Kenneth was furious but did not show it on the surface. He reached into his pocket and took out a card, but at that moment, a voice came from outside the door, "How come you didn't invite me to this high-stakes gamblinggame?"Kenneth felt relieved because he recognized the voice as that of the boss Daniel."Daniel, you're here!" Kenneth called out. "Kenneth, it seems like you used to be a gambling buddy!" Daniel said."Daniel, I won't do it again. If I have money, I'll just send it to my parents in the countryside," Kenneth replied. With 10 million, his parents in the countryside could live in a mansion and eat and drink whatever they wanted!Kenneth began to regret it, but there was no turning back now. Without hesitation, he
Daniel took out his phone and started playing a game called CrossFire. They each did their own thing for an hour, and Daniel closed the game while Sophia finished work on time. Sophia was slightly moved, realizing that Daniel had been accompanying her for an hour while she worked on her project.The next day, Kaia rushed into Sophia’s house in a panic, "Daniel, Ms. Sophia, my father is unconscious!""What happened?" The two immediately followed Kaia to see what was going on.In their rented house, Kang's eyes were closed, but Daniel probed his nose and felt that there was still some breath left. Daniel had already called Dr. Alvarez on the way, and he had arrived by now."Let me take a look." Dr. Alvarez walked overand opened Kang’s eyelids. Then he checked his pulse and listened to his chest.Finally, Dr. Alvarez concluded, "Kang is not suffering from the African plague he had last time but from epilepsy."Everyone was a little uneasy upon hearing this, as it meant that Kang would h
Daniel finished his bowl of rice noodles while Ross had already taken the liberty of preparing the agreement. The contents stated that Base Six would promote several drugs worth ten million pesos for Hughes Group, and Base Six would pay Hughes Group directly."Ms. Sophia, here, sign, Sophia’s face carried a hint of warmth. Sophia took the agreement and signed her signature.Finally, the agreement was handed to Daniel, who didn't even bother to look at it and signed his name with a stroke of his pen. Sophia felt a sweet feeling in her heart. The more time she spends with Daniel she realizes he is not just useless but a person with unlimited financial and political power. Gwen, on the other hand, widened her eyes in disbelief. This was too good to be true!It felt like a dream, with an unreal feeling. For more than five years, this person had suffered so much humiliation in the Hughes Group and the Hughes family!But fortunately, he was able to hold on in such an environment!Could it b
