The Brown family declared they would accept Nick back if he succeeded in expanding his restaurant business. Even though he had to borrow money from an underground organization, he finally opened several branches in the city. As Matteo had asked, he was only a few steps away from reaching fifteen restaurants.However, his conflict with the Red Syndicate could ruin his business. Halston's unexpected appearance might destroy everything Nick had built. Kyra, who had never doubted Halston before, began to question his true intentions.Julian tried to push Halston, but he failed because Halston stood firm like a giant statue. With his face flushed from embarrassment, he shouted, "Mia must've sent this loser to mess up Dad's business! Grandpa is dead now, so the only way we can come back is if Mia's parents approve. They don't want us to return and claim our inheritance!""I think the same. After all, I'm the son of the former head of the Brown family. That cunning Jack must not want me to g

Julian laughed along because nothing made more sense than Grayson's words. "That loser did it, and I'm the one embarrassed! He probably spent his divorce compensation money to hire that actor," he sneered."But why would he approach Kyra?

He grabbed Grayson's shoulder and pleaded, "You have to defeat that loser no matter what! I don't want him anyw

Ethan pushed aside the shame of being ignored, more shocked to find out that Halston really did have an invitation to the dinner. Even so, his mind could not accept that Halston knew someone as influential as Miles.What Halston had been doing all this time was working as a delivery guy and bothering Mia. Ethan could not find any connection between that clown and a famous investor."Sir, I think you've misunderstood something. The man dragged out by the security team isn't your guest. He's actually the useless ex-husband of CEO Mia," Ethan finally concluded.Miles frowned. "Are you talking about Mia Brown from Silver Trust?""Exactly!" Ethan replied, thinking his conclusion was correct. "You probably haven't heard the gossip among the city's elite since you're busy. His name is Halston, and he caused a scene claiming you invited him to dinner. Obviously, he's just pretending to be your guest!"Since Miles did not respond, Ethan kept going with his chatter, thinking this was his chance
