Tanya's convoy soon stopped outside Heaven Springs, with multiple bodyguards scrambling to get off and form a perimeter around Tanya's car.A crew member who was riding shotgun then opened the door for Tanya, alighting before Trevor as they both made a beeline for the entrance of Heaven Springs.The journalists who were following them quickly jumped out of their cars to take photos, with some of them rushing up to the bodyguards and asking, "Ms. Sweet! May I ask why you have decided to make Heaven Springs your first step? Have you heard about the food?""Yes," Tanya smiled. "This place was mentioned to me before I got here, so I thought I should come straight off my flight."Albert was just busy in the Diamond Room with Charlie and Claire when a staff member called him through the walkie, "S-Sir! I think you should come downstairs… We have an international star right here!"Shocked, Albert turned to Charlie, "Is that perhaps the friend you mentioned, Master Wade?""Yes," Charlie

Charlie couldn't help chuckling, "Propose? I thought proposals these days are all about drawing up meticulous plans to surprise the lady, yet you're telling me directly?""Well, it's not exactly the same as everyone else," Trevor scratched his nose in embarrassment. "I'll be returning Stateside to train with the team in a couple of days, and it'd be a long while until I get a break. That's why I told Tanya while we flew over, and she told me to pick a good ring… The surprise element is basically gone."Pausing, he then asked, "Should Tanya say yes, would you come be our witness to our wedding?""Is it going to be the usual wedding you do back in the States?" Charlie asked.Trevor quickly said, "Actually, we can do both. We can have the usual wedding in a church, and then have a second ceremony like Oskians do."Charlie smiled as he said, "Sorry, but you're both top celebrities, and there's going to be a lot of press. I really value my privacy, so I'd rather not show my face in fro

Meanwhile, Albert was swiping his phone endlessly while Charlie, Claire, Tanya, and Trevor were dining.After all, he had noticed, to his delight, that Heaven Springs was trending amidst the media buzz of Tanya's arrival in Aurous Hill, and he repeatedly refreshed posts mentioning Heaven Springs.Then, remembering what Charlie had said earlier, he definitely had to agree that such prominence meant opening up a branch would be all too easy.Even now, the press was camping outside the entrance, clearly hoping for another quick interview from Tanya after she left.In fact, they wouldn't mind just taking photos or videos even without an interview.Some even asked to interview the owner, but Albert became nervous when word reached him.After all, he used to be convinced he had reached the pinnacle of his existence when he became a mob boss, but that was until he met Charlie.It was then that he understood he had never once risen beyond his humble beginnings, and being a mob boss in t

Isaac's words left Albert freezing up, blurting, "Wait, Mr. Cameron… Are you saying that Master Wade already handled everything for me?""Please use your brain for once," Isaac laughed. "I was the Wades' spokesman in the state and represented their family, and you're basically my successor after I left Aurous Hill. With the heir to the Wade family assigning you such an important post, he'd definitely want you to get a fresh start. It's the Wades that would suffer embarrassment if something happens otherwise, don't you agree?"Delighted, Albert quickly said, "Oh, honestly… You have no idea, Mr. Cameron! My heart's been racing the whole night. I was afraid that when Heaven Springs became widely known, those who know my past would rush over to expose me, and it would embarrass Mr. Wade… but I'm relieved now."Then, he sighed emotionally, "I really didn't expect Master Wade to be so kind to a two-bit thug like me… I would lay my life down for the man!"Isaac laughed out loud. "Flatter

Albert was surprised that Charlie was being so insistent.While he knew Charlie meant well, it still hurt his pride as a self-made man.Hence, he told Charlie, "Mr. Wade, you've already helped me way too much ever since we met, including saving my life. It's only thanks to you that Heaven Springs suddenly gained such prominence, and I think with that foundation, we'd rise further beyond if we just stick to our guns. I'm already endlessly grateful for all of that, so I really can't take your money on top of that..."Charlie rolled his eyes. "Don't get so cagey with me, Albert. If I've given something to you, then it's something I'm convinced you deserve. If you don't deserve it, I wouldn't give it to you even if you asked."Albert pursed his lip awkwardly. "I get what you're saying, Sir—it's like a good boss always giving employees increments. But it's way too much with what little I do, and my conscience can't allow it…"Then, remembering what Isaac had said, he clenched his knuck
