On the morning of the following day, Arthur followed through with his words and arrived at the underground prison.The rebel leader was still held in a particular room, but today, he was no longer bound and had the freedom to move around. His physical health had improved since the previous day, but his spirits appeared low. Dark circles were visible under his eyes, indicating a sleepless night of contemplation.Upon seeing Arthur's arrival, the rebel leader gave a faint smile, his gaze a mixture of weariness and resignation. His current appearance made it clear that he had spent the night deeply contemplating his decision. He also knew why Arthur had come.The rebel leader looked at Arthur and said, "I will cooperate with you. I hope you can lift this curse from me."Arthur, with an unchanging expression, seemed to have already anticipated this outcome. He smiled slightly at the rebel leader, saying, "Very we

"Boom!" The sound of the door slamming shut made Mr. Adel jump in a split second. The entire mansion seemed to have fallen into an eerie silence, and Mr. Arthur didn't seem to be his usual self.Just then, another light source suddenly appeared in the room, and Mr. Adel recognized it as the laptop left open on the desk. A blue light emanated from it, indicating an incoming call. Mr. Adel quickly approached and answered it.In an instant, a person appeared on the computer screen, and that person was none other than Arthur himself. He was sitting at the desk, dressed in black pajamas, looking remarkably relaxed. He even held a cup of pink tea in his hand, sipping it leisurely, far from the deathbed appearance that had been rumored.Mr. Adel's expression was somewhat speechless, while others around him were filled with fear. In contrast, Arthur appeared entirely at ease."It's only when you're calm and collected that you can take control of the game," Arthur suddenly spoke, and at

Adel's house experienced a peaceful meal. For Lumie and Raymond, it was just a regular dinner, but for Mr. Adel, that meal was nothing short of hell. At this moment, his eyes could see wisps of black smoke floating around the dishes, making it utterly repulsive. Fortunately, it only appeared briefly in his eyes before disappearing. Otherwise, Mr. Adel might not have dared to put the food in his mouth.Thinking about the wounds on Lumie's hands, Mr. Adel seemed to know what she had put into the food. This wasn't the first time Lumie had cooked for him. He remembered that every six months, he would have a meal personally prepared by Lumie, and at that time, he only felt the warmth of a father-daughter relationship. But now, all he felt was fear and anger.Finally, the meal ended peacefully, and Mr. Adel's face didn't look any better. He used tiredness as an excuse to return to his room. Lumie didn't show excessive suspicion.When Mr. Adel entered the restroom, he hurriedly rushe

Despite Scarlet's doubts, there would be no one to answer her. She stared at the dark computer screen, not uttering a word, and continued to work. Even though it was reported that the SB Corporation was currently in crisis, it didn't mean there was no work to be done.In the evening, Bella called her, constantly expressing her desire to return home. However, Scarlet vigorously discouraged it, as the situation was precarious. Asta might take ruthless actions against Arthur, and they couldn't predict what he would do next. It took a while, but eventually, Bella felt reassured and agreed to stay focused on her studies at school.At that moment, the secretary suddenly knocked on the door and entered with a report. Scarlet was prepared to hear that their two major projects had to be halted, but the secretary's news left her wide-eyed in astonishment.Meanwhile, at Arthur's mansion, he also raised an eyebrow

Scarlet had just finished speaking, and Arthur immediately chuckled in a coordinated manner, "Scarlet, you're saying these words can be quite hurtful, especially to those who like to fantasize and have high self-esteem."At this point, Raymond's expression had become extremely unpleasant, as if he could devour them alive at any moment."You don't know how the future will unfold, and you will regret it!" Raymond gritted his teeth as he spoke, clearly convinced that he was the future owner of the Adel conglomerate.Lumie would have to listen to him, let alone a sinking SB Corporation. He looked forward to the day when he would see Arthur kneeling in repentance at his feet.Thinking about it, his expression became somewhat more pleasant, and sitting next to Arthur, Scarlet was almost disgusted by that expression."What are you all happily talking about?" A gentle voice rang out at that moment, and Lumie was approaching.Her appearance still radiated charm and attracted everyone's atten
