At that same moment, the driver whose wife had undergone surgery for fibroids arrived at the estate. He stepped out of the car quickly and respectfully greeted them before moving to pick up their luggage. With careful hands, he placed the suitcases neatly into the trunk. Once everything was set, Benjamin and Cordelia got into the back seat, and the car slowly drove away from the estate gates. As they moved through the streets, Cordelia rested her head gently on Benjamin’s chest. Benjamin wrapped one arm around her shoulders, holding her close. The city they had spent nearly a year in passed by outside the window, familiar but already beginning to feel distant. Benjamin looked toward the front seat and asked, “How is your wife?” The driver’s face lit up instantly. “Boss, the surgery was successful,” he said excitedly. “She’s still at the hospital receiving treatment and recovering well. The doctors said everything went perfectly.” His voice softened with gratitude. “I don’t even know

Cordelia climbed back onto him, sitting comfortably as before. “It’s between my mother-in-law and I,” she whispered, teasingly brushing a kiss along his neck. “Don't gossip, sir.”Benjamin let out a soft chuckle. “Oh wow… women, fear them,” he said lightly.He looked at her again. “Now that we’re back, what’s your plan? What are you going to do?”Cordelia grew quiet for a moment, her expression turning thoughtful. “My friend Hannah… before we left for Denmark, I told her I’d be back in a week and asked her to look after my restaurant, but we’ve been gone almost a year now… I don’t even know what she must be thinking. She might think I’m dead or something,” she said softly. “And my mart too… I wonder how everything has been managed. The rent and all.”Benjamin nodded slowly. He wasn’t worried about the mart at all, since he secretly owned the stores and was confident Ezra had ensured everything was handled properly without her knowing.“By the way,” Cordelia added, looking at him, “y

Benjamin let out a small sigh and looked at him. “Mixtic… did you have to stress yourself and come here? You could have rested at home and come tomorrow.”Mixtic shook his head immediately. “That’s not possible, young master, you’ve been gone for almost a year, it’s not possible for me to hear of your return and not come to see you.”Benjamin looked at him for a moment, then nodded lightly without saying anything more.Mixtic then turned his gaze to Cordelia, he bowed his head respectfully. “Madam,” he said.Cordelia nodded softly, she wanted to respond but didn’t even know what to say, so she just gave a small smile and stayed quietBenjamin looked at Mixtic and said, “Come in, you should have a meal,” but Mixtic shook his head slightly, “Young master, there’s no need, we only came to see you and check around,”“You came all the way here, you’ll sit and eat first, then we can talk,” Benjamin insisted Mixtic tried again, “It’s really not necessary—”“You came all this way, you’ll sit

The moment Benjamin’s voice traveled into the Mercedes, Olivia’s entire body shook violently, the familiar tone striking her like a bolt of lightning.She turned her head rapidly to look at the man standing by the gate, and the moment her eyes locked onto his face, her mind went completely blank with shock.It had been over a year since anyone had heard from the mysterious boss, and since they couldn't connect with him or find his whereabouts, everyone assumed the worst, but seeing him standing here today, looking completely changed, far more mature, and incredibly handsome, her heart pounded wildly against her ribs.The boss... the boss is finally back! she muttered in her mind, her eyes turning red with overwhelmed emotions.Without wasting a single second, Olivia threw the car door open and stepped out onto the pavement, her high heels clicking loudly as she rushed forward.Dorothy and the security guard exchange a smug look, fully believing that Olivia was furious and was stepping

She opened a file and explained happily, "We have 450 fully completed ultra-luxury villas in our phase two because the rich people in Elysian are fighting to buy them, each villa is now worth between $4 million and $6 million. This standing architecture alone is worth a huge fortune. We also have 180 ongoing premium lakeside estates under construction, plus a lot of raw, undeveloped land inside our gated perimeter.”Hearing these huge numbers, Benjamin was truly moved and shocked in his heart. He knew Olive was clever, but he did not expect her to build such a massive empire in just one year.He looked at her and asked, "What about liquid cash? How much money do we have at hand?”Olive smiled and replied immediately, "We have $530 million in liquid cash right now. Out of this, $180 million is your own personal profit, kept safely for you alone. The remaining $350 million is for active operational funds, so we never have to borrow money from banks. To keep everything running perfectly,
