Chapter 41. The Contract on the Table
The vile words that spilled from Souza's mouth left Serana both furious and deeply offended."Mr. Souza, I respect you as a senior, but you should also possess the etiquette of one. That you could utter such lowly words... it seems you are no longer fit for your position.""So what?" Souza retorted shamelessly. "Forger Enterprise is already on its last legs. It can't be saved. Can praise and sweet words pay the bills?"These directors, who usually presented themselves as respectable gentlemen, were finally showing their true faces at the company's most critical moment. Behind their polished exteriors hid ugly, greedy visages. Forger Enterprise had been painstakingly built by Gerald. Yet, these men were now disregarding their past friendship and turning on his son. When faced with hardship, they thought only of their own interests.Such is human nature.Serana had no desire to argue with them any longer and could only pray in her heart that there was a way out for the company.The time
Chapter 42. Cleaning
During his years in prison, Javon had never wasted a single day. He had learned a great deal about business strategy from his mentors. Now, he didn't just want to clean up the mess within Forger Enterprise; he also wanted to make his stance clear. He would make an example of this, so that everyone would know the consequences of daring to offend him.As for apologies, there is a time and a place. Discussing it at the wrong moment is simply a form of foolishness."Leave the company? Why? I was a loyal follower of your father! I've worked hard in this company for years!" Souza exclaimed, trying to switch his tactic from attacking to defending himself. "There is no clear evidence for any accusations. If I don't want to leave, what can you do to me?"This was the most hateful type of person. When times were good, they would praise you to the heavens. But when things turned sour, they were the first to stab you in the back. Seeing how shameless the man was, Serana's face flushed with anger.
Chapter 43. The Fire of Recovery and The Embers of Revenge
"I have to go home immediately, there's an urgent matter. I'm leaving the press conference to you. I'm leaving now."After hanging up, Javon only had time to say that to Serana before rushing off toward the villa in the east of the city."A press conference?"Serana was momentarily stunned, trying to process Javon's last sentence. But after a moment's thought, she immediately understood. Now that they had successfully secured the new energy industrial park project, of course, they had to announce to the public that Forger Enterprise was back. By doing so, the flow of resources and trust from investors would pour in again. Forger Enterprise, which had once been on the brink of sinking, would return to its peak of glory in just a few days."This kid is truly amazing," Serana murmured to herself. A proud smile graced her lips. It had been a long, long time since she had felt such pure happiness.***At the villa.When Javon arrived, Sherly was lying on the bed, her face flushed from endu
Chapter 44. A Message for Pablo
"Uncle Souza." Perhaps because he was feeling guilty, Pablo's voice on the phone was several notches lower than usual."What's wrong with you, Pablo?" Souza snapped from the other end. "Those projects were supposed to be a sure thing, why did they all suddenly call and cancel the contracts? Is there someone out there deliberately targeting you? Did you offend someone important again?"Initially, Pablo himself was confused and didn't understand why all this was happening. However, after hearing Souza's questions, a possibility suddenly dawned on him.It was too much of a coincidence for several business partners to pull out of projects at the same time. If something feels abnormal, there must be a catch. There had to be someone working behind the scenes."Uncle, don't worry. I will definitely get those projects back and I won't let the company suffer a loss.""You'd better keep that promise!"The call ended.Pablo's face looked grim. Since childhood, he had always wanted his grandfather
Chapter 45. The Auction Invitation and The Enemy's Lair
After he finished speaking, Javon walked over to Serana, ignoring the terrified thugs. He thoughtfully took off his coat and draped it over Serana's shoulders."It's alright. I'm here.""Yes." Serana's emotions became much calmer. Honestly, if she hadn't remembered her status as Javon's stepmother, she might have thrown herself directly into the young man's arms.However, when she recalled Javon's final words to the thugs, Serana began to worry again. "Javon, you've just managed to resolve the crisis at Forger Enterprise. I don't want you to make more enemies because of me. Just forget about what happened today. Besides, I wasn't hurt.""Don't worry, nothing will happen," Javon said calmly. "My principle is simple: I don't bother anyone, unless they bother me first. If anyone dares to touch me, I will retaliate until the matter is settled. Evasion only invites more bullying. The only way to truly solve a problem is to make your opponent afraid.""Alright, but you still have to be care
Chapter 46. The Price of an Insult
An ordinary person seeing them might have thought they were just regular waiters. But in reality, each of them possessed martial arts skills. Even so, to Javon, they were all the same."It would be a waste of time to deal with you one by one. Come at me together," Javon said coolly."Well, aren't you arrogant!" Barnet snapped, his anger provoked. "Since he asked for it himself, get him! I'll cover his medical bills!"This was the effect Javon wanted. He had no time for drawn-out games.The dozen or so men moved forward in unison, each holding a short dagger that gleamed under the dim lights, stabbing toward Javon from various angles.However, before they could even get close, a silver glint flashed from Javon's fingers. Ten silver needles embedded themselves in their necks with impossible speed and precision."Argh!"What followed was a series of stifled screams. A moment later, more than a dozen stout men fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, their bodies convulsing before finall
Chapter 47. The Show in the Town Square
Pablo was so terrified he wet himself. The sharp, pungent smell of urine spread through the private room."Oh my god, Young Master Lincoln actually wet his pants!""Ugh, it stinks!""It seems the richer a person is, the more they fear death. He was so arrogant a moment ago, now look at him.""Who is that young man, really? He's so powerful. I saw him take on a dozen men by himself. His skills are incredible."The people watching from the doorway began to whisper, but most of them were just enjoying the spectacle. After all, Pablo had a terrible reputation throughout Selvana. Not only did he bully others with his power, but he was also notoriously lecherous.Initially, Javon truly wanted to kill Pablo. However, upon reflection, he felt there was a better way to punish him than simply taking his life. Killing him would be too easy. He would make the Lincoln family lose face in all of Selvana.After looking around, Javon's gaze fell on a pair of black stockings lying on the leather sofa.
Chapter 48. The Father's Three Conditions
Javon wasn't just doing this to vent his anger or to defend Serana. This was a strategy.By publicly humiliating Pablo, he was deliberately provoking the person who had been hiding in the darkness, forcing them to show their true colors. In less than a month since his release, he had already dealt with the Lincoln and Conner families. He didn't believe any enemy could be so patient after being provoked to such an extent. All he had to do now was wait calmly.After hanging up the phone, Javon walked into the villa."You're back!"Ever since her legs had healed, Sherly's face was always radiant. She was like a brightly shining star. Before Javon could react, Sherly had thrown herself into his arms. She was only wearing a thin, pink lace pyjama set, and the warm embrace immediately stirred a heat within Javon's body."My wife, are you trying to seduce me?" Javon whispered, deliberately teasing her as he looked down and admired the beautiful view before him."You rogue!" Sherly's face ins
Chapter 49. A New Plan
Just as the father and daughter were at a standstill, Javon's calm voice interjected. Both of them immediately looked at him."Uncle," Javon said politely, "Didn't you just ask me to agree to three conditions? Please, name them. As long as I am capable, I would agree to even a hundred conditions.""Javon!" Sherly exclaimed, trying to stop him. However, Javon gave her a reassuring look, so she fell silent.Leo was quite satisfied with this answer. His tense expression became much calmer. "Alright, since you've said so, I won't be polite."He looked at his daughter with a gaze full of love. "Sherly was well-protected by the Edelweis family since she was a child. She never suffered. But it's as if God was jealous of her talent and crippled her legs. She has endured suffering and humiliation for the past three years. I feel deeply for her."Leo then looked at Javon sharply. "My first condition, you must not look down on her or bully her just because she had a disability in the past."Javo
Chapter 50. Alliance of Enemies
Imperial Hotel, Private Room 800."Young Master Conner, it's an honor that you have the time to treat me to a meal."Pablo had just been discharged from the hospital, his mind consumed with ways to get revenge on Javon when Javier called to invite him to dinner. He agreed immediately. The enemy of his enemy was his friend.The two of them sat in the luxurious private room. Javier got straight to the point. "I've heard your story. It's caused quite a sensation throughout the city. Second Young Master Lincoln, you're a celebrity now."Javier was deliberately provoking him. He knew that without a little provocation, an arrogant person like Pablo wouldn't be easy to cooperate with."Did you ask me to come here just to humiliate me?" Pablo retorted coldly. He scanned Javier from head to toe, his gaze pausing for a cynical moment on Javier's lower body. "Your Conner family isn't much better. Your father has mistresses everywhere, and your brother was rendered helpless by Javon. I'm afraid i
