Charlotte Lowell stood by the window, watching Isaiah Lowell leave, her mind echoing with his last words."Keeps his talents hidden, ready to act when necessary."This was a display of patience, yet Charlotte felt a strong sense of confidence emanating from him.It seemed as if he could achieve anything if he so desired. He didn't act, simply because he chose not to.Was this confidence, or was it overconfidence?Even the Lowell Family had never possessed such a commanding presence.Where did his confidence come from?Surely not from the minor schemes he had up his sleeve against the Lowell Family?Charlotte smiled to herself and muttered, "You're oversimplifying things. The Lowell Family still faces insurmountable challenges. What makes you think you can overcome them?""If it weren't for the opportunity I fought for you, you would be the one going to jail, you know? I hope you won't let down my good intentions, or else the matriarch wil

Daphne Easton brushed off the insincere flattery with a smile, but Thomas Easton's gaze turned even more sinister. He relished the adulation from the Easton family relatives, and now, Daphne was stealing all his thunder. "Daphne Easton, don't get too cocky," Thomas gritted his teeth."By the way, starting tomorrow, we need two people at the construction site. You and Amelia Easton should go," Daphne told Thomas.Thomas slammed his hand on the conference table, standing up angrily, "Daphne Easton, I'm a senior executive of the company. What gives you the right to send me to the construction site?" Everyone preferred the comfort of air-conditioned rooms over the harsh outdoor conditions of a construction site, and Thomas, priding himself as a scion of the Easton family, was no exception.Amelia didn't want her fair skin harmed by UV rays either, "I'm not going. If you have to send someone, go yourself.""Fine," Daphne nodded calmly. "If you both refuse, I'll have t

"This is too brutal.""If he's not a plant by the fight club, I'll write my name backward. It has to be staged.""How could a regular spectator be that powerful?"Speculations of insider arrangements filled the stands, but only Silas and Paul knew Isaiah had no connections with the fight club. Yet, they were at a loss for words to describe his prowess."Is he planning to take on the whole fight club by himself?" Silas said with a wry smile.Paul wiped the sweat from his forehead, "It's not impossible, but with Joseph Peterson's many skilled fighters, can he really stand against them all?""Does he look like someone who can be stopped? Those two fighters didn’t even stand a chance to fight back. How can someone so powerful willingly marry into the Easton Family and let the whole Cresthaven City treat him like trash?" Silas Vance expressed his confusion, pondering why someone so skilled and wealthy would tolerate such treatment."Is it really a

Isaiah could bear many things, but driving posed a risk of unnecessary danger. He couldn't forgive himself if Daphne got hurt.Struggling to explain, Isaiah stammered, making Daphne anxious, "Is there something you can't tell me?"Isaiah panicked, not wanting to jeopardize the progress they'd made. "Actually, my hands are injured, so I can't drive," he confessed."Injured?" Daphne looked at Isaiah's hands, puzzled. She hadn't noticed anything amiss earlier, mistaking his trembling for excitement.Grabbing Isaiah's hand, Daphne asked, "Does it hurt? Is it serious?""It's not too bad, but driving might be risky," Isaiah explained."Let's go to the hospital," Daphne said, taking the driver's seat."There's no need. I'll be fine in a few days," Isaiah insisted.Daphne, not accepting any refusal, firmly said, "Get in the car.""Alright," Isaiah complied, albeit reluctantly.At the hospital, after getting an X-ray, they waited for the doct

As all eyes turned to Daphne Easton, she was infuriated. Just then, Isaiah Lowell whispered something in her ear.Shocked, Daphne looked at him, shaking her head slightly. Everyone seemed eager to place the blame on her, but taking the initiative could be exactly what they wanted.Isaiah smiled, nodding, "Trust me."Daphne Easton paused, a sense of trust flooding her whenever Isaiah Lowell uttered those three words. It had almost become a dependency."Grandma, I can find a way to secure a loan from the bank," Daphne Easton stood up and announced.This statement drew scoffs from Thomas Easton, even the matriarch doubted it, considering she herself couldn't secure a loan, how could Daphne?"You're just talking big. If grandmother couldn't do it, how can you?" Thomas Easton challenged."Thomas, let her brag if she wants. But let's make it clear, what if you can't do it?" Amelia Easton chimed in with a smirk."If I can't do it, I'll sell the hills
