"But make sure you remember my surname—Graves!"Lorenzo raised an eyebrow at his words.Then, he bowed his head and lowered his eyes to the ground. It didn't conceal his laughter, though. The board member in his fifties glared daggers at him—he was a shareholder of the Graves Group, and it was his main source of income.Now, however, Lorenzo had ruined everything. No one would allow such a person to continue appearing before themselves.The board member in his fifties looked at Lorenzo with unbridled hatred, but Lorenzo merely shrugged and smiled. Instead of making him look more approachable, it only made him seem inexplicably colder and crueler, and none dared look at him aside from the dark-suited board member who was still on the ground and the board member in his fifties.The dark-suited board member was still under Lorenzo's foot, so he had no choice but to look at Lorenzo. Seeing him up close made the man's heart tremble, but at the same time, he was relieved that Lorenzo wasn't

He put it on the table, then tapped it lightly.Ice-cold fury washed over the dark-suited board member, and he seemed to lose control over his facial features. He glared daggers at Lorenzo, and his chest heaved. He stalked toward Lorenzo, growling, "You've got guts, and you're among the few who've dared doubt me. Now, I'll gladly show you the price you have to pay for your attitude!"Though he hadn't seen his attacker, he was sure Lorenzo was the only person who could be behind it. Lorenzo was the only person with that sort of ability, and his scorn was obvious. He saw Lorenzo tapping on something on the table, but he didn't see what it was.His rage had reached its peak and burned any sense of rationality left in him. In the next second, he felt a familiar gust of wind coming at him. This time, it was stronger than before and sent him flying, making him crash against the wall.Lorenzo stood up, no longer wanting to waste time with the dark-suited

All he knew was that he'd suddenly lost his balance while watching things play out, and he'd stumbled in Lorenzo's direction. In that instant, he thought, "I'm dead meat." He watched as the distance between him and Lorenzo shortened, but he didn't think it was something worth being happy over. Then, something flashed before him, and there was now nothing between him and the floor. He relaxed and let himself fall to the floor with a loud crash. The dark-suited board member's eyes twitched at the loud thud, and he looked up at Lorenzo. "Mr. Byers, Kellan may not be the smartest, but he's strong. He's been by my side since he was a child; he may have just been there to practice martial arts with me, but he's put plenty of effort into his training. He's not the best, but he'll probably be of a little more use than a normal employee." His gaze was now calm and settled. "Everything that's happened today just shows how much of a loser I am, which means I'm no longer in the running to bec

Beatrice's eyes widened. Then, she nodded. "I understand, sir. I think you should get ready for the authorities' arrival—there's probably going to be a tough battle when they get here. This battle will establish our status in Aurelia for a long time to come." She looked at Lorenzo seriously. "Yeah." He sat down, crossed his legs at the knee, and frowned. "I know what you're worried about, and you're right to be worried." He gave her a thumbs up. "You're very smart, and it's very likely your prediction will come true... if the official that comes isn't the smartest." Lorenzo narrowed his eyes, then said, "Well, I hope that doesn't happen. Otherwise, the whole of Aurelia will end up in chaos." His voice was soft, but it still made Beatrice shudder. She turned to look out the window, then turned back, pulled her phone out, and checked the time. She said, "Mr. Byers, I called the authorities when I was at the entrance. Their office is only three streets away from here, so they should b

"At the same time, this means that I won't allow anyone to question my decisions. I need you to set up a proper regulatory framework instead of allowing this mess to continue. Your actions worry me, and I have to reconsider our cooperation. In the meantime, I want you to arrest these people who've broken the federation's laws." Lorenzo Byers turned to leave without another look at the official.To his surprise, the petite woman didn't intend to let him leave. She shouted, " What right do you have to act so high and mighty? You might be wealthy, but it's not like you're the one who amassed such a massive fortune! Once Aurelia City's government is established, you'll definitely regret this!"Lorenzo Byers stopped, and the official paled. He waved his hands anxiously when Lorenzo Byers turned to look at him, saying, "No, we don't mean that. Rest assured that we'll never go against the law, not even when Aurelia City's government is as powerful as the other cities. Please, you have to bel
