At this moment, Ekard hurriedly said to the manager, You must be mistaken. This man is Allen, the notorious good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Mill family in Pras City—definitely not any 'Master Allen'.Laura also flattered the manager, blurting out, Manager, look at Allen. He's such a poor guy—does he look like someone who can afford such expensive sports cars?I bet he bought two cheap Xiaomi bracelets on Taobao and is here to show off. Don't be fooled by him!Allen snorted with a laugh, took Mia's hand (who was still stunned), and walked toward the Aston Martin ONE77. The security guards who had just sworn to protect the car from any touch immediately stepped aside, seeing how courteously the manager treated Allen.Holding Mia's hand, Allen approached the driver's side of the ONE77. As soon as the bracelet key neared the door, a beep sounded. In an instant, the shark-like headlights flared on, and the interior LCD screen and ambient lights lit up simultaneously. The iconic scissor

The opening ceremony, in essence, is a ritual that showcases one's network of connections. If there are many guests, it proves the company has strong connections and demonstrates its strengthespecially if important figures attend. News of their presence would earn the company respect and deference from others in the future.But if not a single guest arrives, doesn’t that signal to others that the company lacks both resources and connections? How could any business want to cooperate with such a company?If the Delaney Group could send representatives to the opening ceremony today, it would invisibly add significant luster to her company.However, Mia wasn’t confident that the Delaney Group would even acknowledge her.At this moment, the old lady of the Mill family spoke up: Mia, it’s almost 10 o’clock, and there’s still not a single guest. I don’t see the point in running this little workshop.I advise you to come back to work at Mill Group. It’s better to steadily help the Mill famil

Mia stretched out her hand nervously and shook hands with Lucia, feeling flattered as she said, Thank you, Miss Lucia!As she spoke, while Lucia was sizing her up, Mia was also observing Lucia. In terms of both appearance and figure, Lucia was almost on par with Mia, but the innate noble aura emanating from the other woman was something Mia could never match. Thinking of this, Mia couldn't help but feel a twinge of inferiority.Lucia then said, Ms. Mia, as the wife of Master Allen, you are my benefactor. So please don't be polite with me!As expected, they came because of Allen... Upon hearing this, Mia couldn't help but glance at Allen, who was greeting others beside them.Strangely enough, she felt a pang of jealousy... Her husband had actually earned such great regard from the young lady of the Green family. He was becoming more and more unpredictable.Shortly after, Vivian also stepped forward, shook hands with Mia, and smiled, Ms. Mia, congratulations on your grand opening! The D

Allen took the check from the manager and placed it in Mia's hand, saying, Since Chairwoman Vivian has offered it for free. The Delaney Group is a multi-billion-dollar conglomerate—why would they care about such a small amount of rent?Besides, we'll be cooperating with you in the future. You can't be so distant, can you?Allen's words made Mia hesitate. Indeed, the Delaney Group was the largest company in Pras City, with a scale comparable to the entire Green family.If she remained distant from Vivian over a few tens of thousands of dollars in rent, Vivian might think she was unapproachable.So she hurriedly nodded and said gratefully, Chairwoman Vivian, thank you so much!Vivian smiled slightly: We're partners, and it's only right to help each other.Mia nodded repeatedly, then handed the check to Allen, saying, My dress has no pockets. Can you hold this check for me first?Okay! Allen casually put the check in his pocket and said to Mia, Come on, I'll introduce you to Miss Lucia.

Mia couldn't help but speak up: Allen, just let Doctor Keane give it a try.Unexpectedly, Doctor Keane began to show off at this moment, coldly snorting: Kid, if you don't kneel down and kowtow to me today, I really won't treat this patient!But just as he finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly sounded from outside the door: Who dares to make Master Allen kneel for him? Are they tired of living?As the voice came in, a middle-aged man wearing a Tang suit stepped into the ward.The moment Ekard and Keane saw this middle-aged man, their faces instantly turned pale with shock!It was none other than Mogos, the underground king of Pras City! What was going on here?! Why was he here?Before Ekard and the others could react, the next scene left them dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning!At the door of the ward, several more people filed in. They were none other than Vivian, the vice chairman of the Delaney Group, Gustav, the head of the Hardy family, Burt, the head of the Brown family,
