"A two-times return investment?" the family all uttered in unison.They exchanged glances of confusion as they tried to understand what this could mean.Given the name, the investment seemed unbelievable to them all.However, they couldn't dismiss it right away. They didn't want to offend Jonah, who had introduced it to them."If I'm right, Mr. Quinton, this sounds more like a Ponzi scheme. Or would you mind elaborating more about it?" Felicia asked Jonah.The young heir smiled slightly. "I understand what you all must be thinking about this. But I would like to inform you that whatever negativity you may have thought, you are wrong."Deep sighs echoed in the dining room as they listened to him speak."This investment is solely created for those who understand and believe in the power of stock purchases. It’s one of the greatest means to multiply funds in a short period. And it has lasted for many years because it’s handled by great experts in the field."The more Jonah explained, the

Their eyes all turned in immediate disgust, staring at Roderick harshly. Clara's eyes burned with horror the more she stared at him. Among them all, she held the greatest hatred in her heart for the war king compared to the others.Roderick cursed his luck inwardly, as he had never expected to meet these fools here. His day had been quite stressful and draining. Encountering these troublesome people now would only add to his headache.Just then, Clara snorted and asked him angrily, "Huh, what have you come to do at the Eclipse Hotel, Roderick? A loser like you doesn't belong here. Don't you have any shame?""Whatever I have come to do at the hotel is none of your business, Mrs. Santos. Why don't you keep your eyes on your own affairs?" Roderick responded nonchalantly.Clara used to be someone he held in some honor in the past, but not anymore. She was more senseless than her daughter.It's not surprising that her daughter inherited some foolishness from her.At this moment, Clara near

Jonah's face instantly widened in shock, and he nearly peed himself upon hearing this from Roderick. He was utterly dumbfounded about how he could have learned such completely secret information.The truth was that the Quinton Pharmaceutical company had been struggling with many business problems for several months. However, they had tried their best to keep the issues from becoming public knowledge. It was a complete secret that not even Jonah's father knew about them.These troubles included, but were not limited to, financial crises, product complaints, and more.Ever since Jonah's father left the city for a business trip, Jonah had been in charge of their pharmaceutical business.After all, as the heir of the family, he was expected to steer the company toward glory.This would not only benefit him and his family but was also about securing the future for his children and continuing to build their reputation, just as his forefathers had done.The baton had now been passed to him,

All attention quickly shifted to the young heir as he shouted at the top of his lungs.The Santos family stared at him with concern as his voice rose higher, as if he had been bitten by a snake.Indeed, ten million dollars is a whole lot of money. In fact, even Clara's life savings weren't that much. But they never expected such an amount to be a big deal to the heir of the Quinton family.Seeing the sudden stares, Jonah quickly composed himself and wiped the shock off his face."Ten million dollars. It's not that bad," he said in a low tone. Meanwhile, he was pondering how huge that was.He never expected the membership card to be so costly. He wondered if the membership card was worth ten million dollars, how much the meals would cost then.The young heir had just scammed the Santos family out of over a hundred million dollars. But that doesn't mean he should spend it all recklessly.Mismanagement of funds was what put the Quinton Pharmaceutical company in the mess it's in today. Th

After Hannah and Roderick walked past some other suites on the floor, they arrived at the entrance of the Comfort Suite, where Roderick was heading.Before them was a sleek and modern door that looked very nice. Below the door handle, some buttons served as the control.Hannah pressed the bell button, and in a moment, the door slowly opened.A young and beautiful lady wearing a lovely purple off-shoulder gown stepped out gently. It was none other than Kate Bolton.Hannah greeted her and pointed at Roderick. "Ma'am, your visitor is here."As soon as she raised her head and saw Roderick behind Hannah, her face lit up with happiness. "Mr. Holmes, you are finally here."The War King managed to give her a slight smile, reciprocating the warmth.Kate had informed Hannah earlier, after paying for the floor, that she would be expecting visitors and wanted them to be treated with the utmost honor.Any form of disrespect towards them would not be tolerated.This was one of the major reasons why
