Maverick took a huge sip of tea in an attempt to calm down. "There are bound to be disagreements. But you can rest assured. I hereby guarantee that our company will never take advantage of you. Nor will we make outrageous demands." Maverick was confident that his words would throw them off guard. "But …"Tyrone pretended to be worried and said, "This kind of thing has happened before. Two companies that we had just partnered with. They tried to scam Tergot Tech right after the partnership was formed." Emerson was confused. He had an easy time working with Anthony and Lars. Since when had they scammed Tergot Tech? "Mr. Hendrick, you must be talking about Solaris Energy Corp and Seven Seas International. Rest assured, we're the eighth-biggest company in the city. We will never use underhanded tricks. We have an image to maintain."The most important thing to me as a businessman is my reputation. I'm only human, but I try to do my best to be guilt-free."Maverick grunted to h

Maverick shivered as he looked around. He took a deep breath in an attempt to calm himself. Only after that did he answer the call."Mr. Maverick, was the task completed successfully?"Joe naturally didn't know what had happened at Tergot Tech. According to the report of one of his men, Maverick had exited Tergot Tech, which was why he'd called to ask about the situation."Mr. Miller, although there was a slight hitch, the task was carried out successfully. Emerson Rivers really wanted to partner with their small little company!""What hitch?""It's that useless son-in-law of the Vaughn family. I told him off a little, but he actually dared to injure my hand! Fuck him!" For a greater, more believable effect, Maverick prodded the injury, hurting himself so that he gasped.Joe scoffed. "That Tyrone Hendrick is really asking for trouble. How dare he offend the eighth-greatest company in the city! Don't worry, I will avenge you!" If it weren't for the fact that Maverick was just a

After Tyrone was sure that no one was following him, he hailed a cab. He felt quite annoyed. He thought that Mariposa was very petty to have someone follow him. And for what? All for a useless piece of fabric she had gifted?It was very late by the time he got home.Lately, Belinda and Yvan had stopped making trouble. After they got tricked into losing their money, they always hid in their rooms after dinner.After opening the door quietly, Tyrone found that Ysabella still hadn't gone to sleep. She was lying in bed, reading a book."Honey, I'm home!" But his call was ignored, so Tyrone sheepishly went and laid out his sheets on the floor. When he moved past the bed, Ysabella sniffed and looked at Tyrone strangely. "Where did you go, coming home so late?""Ah, there was a problem at the company, so I stayed overtime," Tyrone said guiltily. Didn't he tell her during the phone call this afternoon? Why was Ysabella asking about it now?"Alone? Mr. Rivers wasn't with you?"Tyrone g

"Mr. Channing, I'm so sorry. This is all my fault!" Ysabella was angry and anxious as she jogged over. But before she could take more than two steps, Tyrone caught her gently from behind. "Honey, let me!" Without a word, Tyrone stepped up and lifted Conrad from the ground in the most impolite and rough manner.If it weren't for what Ysabella might think. Tyrone would have gotten even more violent with this vile old man who had designs on his wife. Conrad's glasses went back on his nose, and Conrad himself stood back up. It was then that Conrad noticed Ysabella had brought a man with her."Ms. Vaughn, could you please explain what's going on?" Conrad's tone was very displeased. He hadn't come here to talk business with an insignificant company."I'm very sorry, Mr. Channing. He is … our company's security guard." After thinking about it, Ysabella still didn't dare say that Tyrone was her husband. After all, it was highly inappropriate to bring a family member to a business meetin

In the next few days, Tyrone was busy with the matter of the Horizon Corporation. On the one hand, he had to make it seem like Horizon was going to take over Tergot Tech. On the other hand, he also had to turn Horizon into a tool for his retaliation.Tyrone was so busy that he couldn't handle it. It was so annoying. Vergil and Connor must have somehow heard about his troubles because they volunteered to come over to help. Unexpectedly, they managed to handle the situation perfectly. "Ty, there's a letter for you!" Emerson came inside, waving a letter. Vergil's nose twitched as he unconsciously sniffed the air. Following the scent, his gaze fell on the letter. "It's the smell of jasmine! Ty, you're already a married man; why are you going around seducing little girls?" Vergil leered as he started imagining things because of the letter. "Do you think I have the time for that? Let me look!" Tyrone took the letter, which had a light, familiar scent to it.As he tore open the
