In the morning, Allegra went to work. Isaac wanted her to rest properly at home, but she reasoned that she'd been out of it for the past two days and didn't know how the company was doing. Thus, she insisted on going to take a look.On the other hand, Isaac went to the hospital to visit Harry and Denvor. He then realized that these "buddies" even shared a room when they took their herbal baths…Meanwhile, when Allegra arrived at the office, she realized the atmosphere was rather strange.As soon as she sat down, her assistant cautiously walked over, carrying a document in her hand."Ms. Booth, this is an expense account. P—please sign off on it."Allegra paused. She smiled at her assistant and said, "Shouldn't the expense account go straight to finance? Why do you need me to sign off?"When the assistant saw Allegra's smile, she felt more at ease. "These are the expenses for Mr. Booth's hospitalization and daily care. The amount is rather large, so finance asked you to take a loo

Because of the close relationship between Allegra, Margaret, and Andrew, the people in the meeting room merely watched, not daring to utter a single word.Emily glared at Andrew with hate in her eyes as her teeth dug into her lip. At the same time, she was very worried about how Allegra would react. After all, what happened last time had been very surprising. However, Allegra simply waved her hand and said, "You're no longer the executive vice president, so this has nothing to do with you. Mom, my head wasn't screwed on right two days ago. While I'm still myself, I want to do something right. It's already good enough that Andrew has a job right now."Upon hearing that, both mother's and son's expressions fell.Margaret opened her mouth to retort, but Allegra continued, "If you won't leave and insist on disturbing my meeting, I may consider taking back the house Andrew and his wife live in. If it comes down to that, then they'll have to return to the streets."Those words stunned

In the afternoon, Isaac and Allegra went to school together and picked Isabella up. It was Holly's first time meeting Isabella. She even took the time to ask about Isabella's preferences, and then she went to the market and picked out some ingredients.To express how sorry she was, Allegra brought a scarf home and gifted it to Holly since winter was approaching. Holly was surprised and moved.The dinner table was laden with a delicious spread. Isabella was enjoying every bite. Isaac opened a bottle of wine and poured himself and Eugene a glass each.Suddenly, Isabella opened her mouth and said, "Mom, a new student transferred to my class today. My teacher said he came from a big city. What is a big city like?"Allegra was caught off guard by this question. After a pause, she smiled and replied, "A big city has many tall buildings, cars, and a lot of people.""The new student said the city he lived in had many people from other countries. They have different eye and hair colors, an

Isaac stood by the window in the room, smoking. He was only a few 100 feet away from the field and had been observing the situation since a while ago.He had watched the chaos unfold in its entirety. According to the agenda, the 100 Disciplinary Council members were to go on the stage to swear their life to protect justice in the martial arts world. Jeremiah didn't want them to take action before the swearing-in, but he had no choice.However, what shocked him was that after the 100 Disciplinary Council members rushed into the crowd, nearly 40 of them were beaten to the ground. Only 20 or so troublemakers were arrested; the remaining were still fighting.As the Disciplinary Council was newly established, although they had spent a lot of effort to select the most steadfast people, their strength was still lacking in a few stages.The first one to protest, Steven, stepped on the man in the white cloak that he had beaten to the ground. Facing the ashen-faced Jeremiah, he laughed out

Soon after, Earl put his sunglasses back on, effectively breaking their eye contact. Isaac simply thought it was a bit strange, but he didn't overthink the situation. He faced the thousands of martial artists and their shocked, surprised, and furious eyes. The spiritual energy in his power core was already bubbling. He opened his mouth and yelled, "Astraeus has been annihilated. The nine states of Cynea will never have another Astraeus. I, Isaac Garten, swear that no one will dictate what you can or cannot do."His voice had risen to the point where it sounded like clapping thunder. Every note was imbued with immense power that rang in the ears of every martial artist, impacting them so hard that their blood began to rush through their chest.Isaac pointed behind him and angrily said, "What the Martial Artists Society and the Disciplinary Council want is to prevent you from fighting over resources and disrespecting the lives of martial artists." Then, he pointed at the corpse bes
