Roselyn was surprised by Edward's response which she thought was excessive. "Hey, honey. Why are you so surprised like this? It's as if Jason Falcon is your enemy and Diana is the one spying for that man."Roselyn seemed to shake her head while chuckling.Edward cleared his throat softly, then tried to calm himself down from the facts he had just discovered about his concerns regarding Diana Blunt working at Marcosta's company.Edward said to himself, 'You're right, darling. The Falcon family is indeed a mortal enemy to the Marcos family because there is a grudge from the past related to my mom and Jason Falcon,'Edward chuckled, trying to match Roselyn's chuckle. "You're right. I took it too far when it had nothing to do with me.""You just don't make sense sometimes," Roselyn said."When did you hear Diana talking to Jason Falcon?" asked Edward with a calm face.Roselyn's eyes looked at her husband seriously. "I was looking for Diana who said she was going to the washroom in Dexter'
In the room of one of her bodyguards, Emily Algren stood behind several of her men who were sitting in front of the large screen that was her IT team.One of the IT team reported, "The call signal has been disconnected, Ms. Algren."Emily nodded firmly. "Good. Make sure there is no traceable signal from here. We can't take any chances."Emily pondered for a moment, thinking about her next move. "We can't let the enemy find our trail through the phone signal. Mr. Steel needs to stay safe, and so do the people behind him."Meanwhile, Edward was still trying to contact Roselyn again to no avail. He sighed heavily, feeling frustrated that there was no notification at all initially.His cell phone rang and Miss Algren's name appeared on his screen. He wondered why Miss Algren could contact him."Yes, Ms. Algren," said Edward who received a call from his confidant."Chairman, I apologize for restricting your phone access especially to the town of Riverside," Emily said which made Edward now
Back at the forum event, the host took the stage.After Diana Blunt finished her mesmerizing presentation, applause again filled the hotel's tightly secured ballroom.The host was all smiles, holding the microphone with confidence."Thank you very much, Ms. Blunt, representative of the Marcosta company, a giant company that is expanding its business, for your wonderful presentation. The global expansion plan you laid out truly illustrates Marcosta's vision and commitment to a brighter future," said the host as he nodded towards Diana, who returned the gesture with a graceful smile before leaving the stage.The host then turned his gaze to the audience, his eyes flashing with anticipation. "And now, ladies and gentlemen, we come to the highlight of the program that we have all been waiting for. Allow me to introduce the man behind this grand strategy and vision. Without further ado, let us welcome with a standing ovation, Mr. Steel!"The sound of applause boomed throughout the room, cr
Alfred released Darren and said calmly, "I am the head of Mr. Steel's security team. And now, I must leave to ensure Mr. Steel remains safe."Darren lay on the floor, watching with hateful eyes as Alfred walked out of the room at a brisk pace. He knew that his job wasn't done yet.With his martial arts skills and intelligence, Alfred had to get back to the hotel ballroom to ensure Mr. Steel remained safe from the threat of Jason Falcon and his men.Meanwhile, Edward was still presenting the Marcosta company's vision and mission for the future. The short but powerful speech captured the attention and inspired the audience.After his speech was over, Edward received a standing ovation. He gave a respectful salute and with a tight escort, quickly stepped off the stage.The bodyguards, with Alfred having arrived at the building and rejoined the escort team, escorted him out of the room quickly and carefully, making sure no one suspected his true presence.In a swift motion, Edward switche
Jason Falcon was instantly knocked unconscious when a punch slammed into his jaw. His eyesight spun around followed by darkness.The blow came from the hand of Edward who had previously covered his face with a mask again. Edward cast his gaze around the place and saw that Jason Falcon's bodyguards were already unconscious as well, having fought against Alfred and his chosen bodyguards.Diana, who was still on the ground, slowly stood up. She took a step towards Edward, but Edward asked her to stop.“Edward, so you-”“What am I, Diana?” asked Edward, cutting Diana off.“You're confusing me, Ed. A while ago you said that you were Mr. Steel.” Diana's face instantly became more confused.“Are you okay, Ed?” asked Alfred, who approached Edward.Diana was even more confused by the situation. Alfred seemed to be wearing a bodyguard's suit with the Marcos family logo, and Edward was wearing a bodyguard's suit.If Edward really was Mr. Steel, there was no way this man named Alfred would behave
“What do you mean you're smiling like that, Rubbish?” asked Derek, who didn't like seeing the thin, mysterious smile that hung on Edward's lips. "Listen to me, you can win races with me and embarrass me at Dexter's restaurant, but not in this company! I've got my dad kicking you out of here!"Edward seemed to glance at Derek. "Really? I'm just curious to see how your dad kicks me out of here?"Derek looked like he was going to vomit blood at Edward's arrogance. He looked at the suit Edward was wearing, similar to the suits of the bodyguards of the Marcos family. “I assure you that your fate will be ruined and no other company will hire you as a bodyguard!”The elevator doors opened, and Edward stepped inside, ignoring Derek who stood and briefly blocked his way. Derek, with a face full of anger and contempt, followed Edward into the elevator.Slowly the elevator began to move upwards. Derek repeatedly sneered at Edward, while Edward still looked calm.He then said again, “Don't think
Hugo's question was cut off as Robert instantly nodded with conviction.His face instantly turned pale and cracked. He didn't want his life history to end in this way.He leaned a little closer to Edward and hurriedly said, “Mr. Steel, I'm damned, I'm damned! I promise I will solve this problem."A Robert who is a confidant of the Marcos family, it is enough for him to kneel down and curry favor, and the Marcos family in Mr. Steel's power is a supreme existence that makes him invisible, and he has to look up all his life. But now, he didn't know if he could still live, and his son had directly offended the young master of the Marcos family. Thinking of this, Hugo Vesper fixed his eyes on Edward, his legs softened involuntarily, and he knelt in front of Edward, and said with trepidation, “Young master, I'm sorry, I didn't know that my son had offended you, I was really at a loss, I apologize to you! Please forgive me!"Derek was stunned at his father's explanation. His eyes rounded a
Derek could only nod slowly, fear enveloping his entire body. Edward stood back up and signaled Emily Algren's bodyguards.“Drag him away from here,” Edward ordered firmly.Emily's bodyguards quickly approached Derek, pulling him roughly off the floor. Derek's limp and helpless body was dragged out of the room, like a street dog. Each tug made Derek feel more and more like his bones were falling out of his joints.Now Edward turned to Hugo who was still frozen after seeing his son being dragged like a street dog.Edward looked at Hugo sharply, as if penetrating the lies he might be hiding. He stepped closer, the sound of his shoes echoing in the suddenly quiet room after Derek was dragged out. Emily Algren stood beside him, her face implying the same tension.“Mr. Vesper,” Edward began in a low but threatening voice. Hugo's body trembled again. He looked down in fear at Edward's frightening voice. “I-yes, sir.”“Do you know the consequences if you play around with us?” asked Edward
