“Are you saying that you called the president of the Excelsior Group to help the Langley Group?” asked Dustin with a teasing tone as he stared fixedly at Devon. Devon’s face froze. But after some thought, he assumed that Dustin would not know the president of the Excelsior Group personally. Feeling at ease, he said, “Yes! I owe him a huge favor since he agreed to help the Langley Group!” Dustin laughed and said, “Then, I’ll have to ask him myself if that’s truly the case…” Everyone was shocked. “You know the president of the Excelsior Group? You’re lying!” Christian was the first to mock Dustin. “Who do you think you are? The president of the Excelsior Group is someone of high social status. You can’t possibly know him. You say you want to ask him? You act like you’re so amazing. Your nose grows longer by the second because of your lies!” “Kid, your lie is far too obvious this time. You should be humble instead,” Derek growled. “You lie to make yourself look good, but you

It was not until Devon Aquila had been thrown out of the Langley house for a good while that the Langley family members snapped out of their shock. Their faces turned grim. Devon was the second son of the Aquila family. In Margot’s eyes, he was a genuinely rich son-in-law who could help the Langley family fulfill their dreams of reaching a higher social standing. But Dustin had ruined it all! Margot was furious, but she was also scared of the Hell Guard, so she did not dare be too hostile to Dustin. Instead, she turned her anger on Simone and her family. “Simone, I’m going to ask you this just once. Are you going to marry Devon or not?” she asked loudly. “If you marry him, you’ll still be part of this family and will be treated right. You’ll be seen as someone who brought us great success and will be treated as an important member of the family. “But if you insist on protecting that worthless trash, refuse to consider whether we rise or fall, and insist on getting on the

This was the third day since Simone and her family had been disowned. They handed over all the documents of the Langley Group to the main Langley family and also completed the transfer procedures. The Langley Group was thus under the main family’s control once more. Derek and Christian happily drove over to the Langley Group in the morning. Margot told them that the Langley Group was to be under their jurisdiction from this point onward. The Langley Group was currently a highly profitable asset. In the past, it was on the verge of bankruptcy, and everyone in the family avoided it. That was why it was given to David in the first place. However, since they had completed their order with the Excelsior Group, the company had started profiting again. It also received a lot of orders and trade deals. It had a great influence compared to other material manufacturing companies in Rivenesco. Derek and Christian did not need to do anything to enjoy the fruits of the company’s profits

Another two days passed. The atmosphere in the Langley family’s main villa was grim. The core family members gathered together, but they were all silent. The Langley family’s situation grew more dreadful day after day. Every single day, they suffered great losses. No one could remain calm anymore. Even the obstinate Margot felt shaken. Today, they had gathered together to come up with a solution. But most of them were silent right from the start. Finally, someone spoke to break the silence. “Grandma, should we ask David and his family to come back?” Christian asked tentatively. Margot’s face darkened. She had disowned David and his family. It had only been a few days since. If she called them back, she would be eating her own words. Her reputation and pride would suffer a blow, and she would be stuck in a morbid conundrum. But was there a better plan? Margot mulled over this for a while before she looked at Derek and Christian. “Why don’t you go and visit David

David agreed to the Langley family’s request. He had always valued family ties. Since Margot had personally come over to apologize to him and even offered him to work at the Langley Group and Heavenly Will Bazaar, he was given respect and honor, so he was not going to refuse. Thus, David and his family returned to the Langley family and became a part of the family with the highest status. They had authority and respect. On that very same day, the Serpentine Gang members left the bazaar. The Rivenesco government official also sent word to let the Langley family’s businesses run again. Things were back on track. This made the Langley family even more certain that David and his family had a lot of influence and plenty of connections. They did not dare to treat them with disrespect anymore. That was what Dustin wanted. Honestly, he only spared them because David cared about his family so much. Otherwise, given Dustin’s nature, he would much rather destroy the main family entire
