Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1700
Serena's face mirrored her confusion as she said, "I don't know either. I just got the call this afternoon. They didn't explain anything, only that they'd arrive in Folksworth tomorrow and that we should prepare to host them.""Honey, what do you think? I've completely severed ties with the Swift family. Should I still greet my uncle and his family when they arrive?"At this moment, Serena was deeply conflicted.Although she had cut all ties with the Swift family and moved from Venzor to Folksworth, she still felt a sense of guilt. After all, blood was thicker than water, and these were relatives she had lived with for over twenty years.Serena wanted to be heartless and ignore Tim and his family completely. However, when she told her father about it, he advised her to see them.Tony had said that he would still be buried in the Swift family's ancestral shrine even after his death. To completely sever ties with the Swift family would make him a disgrace to his ancestors, a traitor

The company Serena owned was dozens of times larger than the Swift family's business."Dad, that bitch, Serena, actually owns this?" Sophia was visibly shocked, her face frozen in disbelief for quite a while.Tim was also stunned for a long moment before he reacted. Although he didn't want to admit it, he pulled out his phone, checked the address, and nodded. "Yes, this is it. I can't believe Serena has managed to establish such a large company here in Folksworth."The more he thought about it, the more displeased Tim's expression became. Serena had left the Swift family and yet had done so well for herself. This made Tim very unhappy.Sophia, standing next to him with a serious expression, said, "Dad, since Serena isn't short on money, how about we ask for 30 million more later?"Tim's eyes lit up at her suggestion, and he nodded enthusiastically. "Yes. We'll ask for an extra 30 million."With that, the two of them strutted confidently into the building. Tim felt entitled. It wa

"You."Tim was furious. However, when he saw the look in Xayne's eyes, he couldn't help but shiver with fear. Still, being slapped in public by Xayne made him incredibly angry and humiliated. Especially now, as more and more people gathered around, Tim felt even more embarrassed.So, he shouted angrily, "Xayne! Don't you dare threaten me! I'm not afraid of you. No matter what, I'm still Serena's uncle. I still am her uncle, even if you don't acknowledge it. That's an unchangeable fact. I won't apologize today. Let's see what you can do about it.""Exactly." Sophia stepped forward, glaring coldly at Xayne. "You think being the King of the North gives you the right to oppress us?"Xayne's expression darkened upon hearing the father-daughter duo. He took a step forward and said coldly, "If that's the case, then I'm sorry."In an instant, Xayne kicked Tim and his daughter, sending them flying out of the building."Ouch!" Tim rolled on the ground, clutching his abdomen and moaning

Tim and Sophia stormed into Serena's office, seething with anger. As soon as he walked in, Tim pointed at Serena, who was sitting in her executive chair, and yelled, "Serena! What is the meaning of this? Are you doing this on purpose? I'm your uncle. How dare you embarrass me in front of all those people?"Sophia followed him in, glancing around the spacious office. It was enormous—more than 500 square feet, three to four times larger than Swift Group's president's office. Serena had indeed made it big. She noticed that Serena’s clothes and accessories were all high-end international brands, much more expensive than what she was wearing.In the past, Sophia had always been the elegant swan compared to Serena. Now, she felt like an ugly duckling in front of her, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable and resentful.She shouted, "Serena! Don’t think just because you have a good husband, you can act like this. Fortune changes hands. Today, you might be on top, but tomorrow, th

"An IOU?" Tim's face darkened instantly upon hearing this. However, remembering the scene of Xayne kicking him earlier, he didn't dare to argue.He forced a smile and said, "Xayne, we're all family here. There's no need for an IOU, right? Once Swift Group gets through this rough patch, I'll repay you."Xayne let out a cold laugh. "In this world, I believe pigs can fly sooner than I can believe a word you say, Tim.""You!" Tim ground his teeth in anger but couldn't retort. He needed their help, so he turned to Serena, playing the sympathy card. With a tearful voice, he said, "Serena, I have had it tough. The Swift family depends on me. Without the 70 million, Swift Group will go bankrupt, and the family will be ruined. We'll be on the streets, begging for food. "Worse, your grandfather's grave might even be dug up to pay off debts. Your grandfather loved you dearly. You can't just abandon the Swift family, can you?"Hearing this, Serena felt torn. Her grandfather had indeed love

"That's a great idea." Tim's eyes lit up as he grasped his daughter's plan. "You mean I can use my identity as Serena's uncle, leveraging her and the Serena Group's name for business dealings? We can also gather funds and expand Swift Group?""Not just Serena's name. I think we can even use Xayne's name. Imagine, if we discreetly meet with potential clients and they hear it's connected to the King of the North, won't they be eager to cooperate?" Sophia's face gleamed with cunning and pride."You have a point, but I'm afraid those people might not be so easily fooled," Tim said, considering the feasibility of the plan."Come on, Dad, how will we know if we don't try? It's certainly better than letting Swift Group continue its decline. If it works, we'll hit the jackpot," Sophia urged."Alright. Let's give it a shot. You start by identifying those high-potential partners. We need to get to them before Serena Group does," Tim instructed."Got it. Leave it to me," Sophia said, support

"A million?!" Calvin's eyes widened in shock. Such an absurd demand right off the bat felt like a blatant extortion."Well, the project's profit share alone will match that amount. If you're not interested, we won't force you. Let's go, Sophia," Tim said nonchalantly, standing up as if ready to leave."Who would've thought our first potential partner would be so short-sighted? What a shame, really," Sophia added, shaking her head in feigned disappointment.This was part of the act they had rehearsed, perfectly synchronized to manipulate their target."Wait, wait, I never said I wouldn't invest. Of course, I'll invest a million dollars. I just want to confirm with Serena Group first to ensure you truly represent them." Calvin hastily blocked their path."Mr. Calvin, business is built on trust. Your actions suggest you don't trust us. If that's the case, there's no point in continuing this discussion," Tim said, pretending to leave again."Okay, it's my fault for lacking trust. Let

Hearing this, Tim laughed heartily. "Serena, are you out of your mind? When did I do these things? I don't know what you're talking about. Don't falsely accuse me. I could sue you for defamation.""You...." Serena was so furious that her chest heaved with anger."What illegal profiteering? You make it sound so bad. Let me tell you, Serena, don't be disrespectful. Even if I did use your company’s name, what can you do about it? I've already put the word out. If there's trouble, they'll come after you, not me," Tim said nonchalantly. He had tampered with the contracts so that they couldn't be traced back to him."Tim, I'll ask you one last time. Are you sure you won't return the money?" Serena demanded, her voice shaking with rage."I won't. As a member of the Swift family, you share responsibility for the company. Now that I'm making Swift Group thrive again, you should be thanking me," Tim said smugly."What nonsense. Are you thriving on your own merits? You’re just illegally usin
