Famous singers performed on the large stage, and colorful lights adorned the venue.Unfortunately, Simon, Clara, and Sean were not present. The plan to embarrass Peter had ultimately failed miserably.Mike had been visibly angry from the moment the event began. He kept grumbling and trying to keep badmouthing Peter in front of everyone. However, no one really cared.Peter chose to stay in the car, observing the crowd from a distance. He ordered some of his bodyguards to check on the event and return with a report."Mr. Mike is furious because the plan to embarrass me failed. After all, Simon was the mastermind behind the plan. Since he's out of town, he couldn't attend. Everyone chose to focus on the event.""Besides, most of my classmates chose not to attend. This event is becoming less enjoyable.""Let's go," Peter said to the driver.

In the end, Peter decided to meet the person. His curiosity far outweighed his fear. Peter followed a man. When he entered the room, someone was already sitting at a table, their face hidden by a hat. “A woman,” Peter muttered. “Sit down now. I don’t have much time,” the woman said as she lifted her hat and took off her glasses. Peter was still standing near the chair. “You... Jennifer Thoman.” Jennifer rolled her eyes. “I already asked you to sit down, didn’t I? Why are you wasting time?”Peter sat down across from Jennifer. “What do you want from me, Miss?”Jennifer let out a long sigh. “I don’t need to tell you who I am because you already know me. I’ll get straight to the point. I know you’re the one who gave me the note during the incident at the restaurant the other day.”Jennifer glanced at her watch. “It took me quite a while to figure out you were the one. I ordered my subordinates to check the CCTV footage before the incident, then scan the voices of all the guests that

Clara left the office even though her workday wasn’t over yet. She was still completely fed up with what had happened earlier. Her face clearly showed that she was in a terrible mood. Clara decided to calm down at a café, enjoying a cup of coffee and watching the traffic go by near the window. “Oh, my God.” Clara let out a long sigh. “I really hate today. Peter had the nerve to humiliate me. He acted like some kind of savior, when really he was just getting back at me. My father didn’t even hesitate to get down on his knees and beg him.”“Is it true that Ryan and his family have bad intentions? I haven’t seen anything suspicious about them so far. Ryan and his family have treated me very well.”“If it’s true that Ryan just wants to take advantage of my family and me, I... I... honestly don’t know what to do. My family’s situation is really bad right now. Among all my friends and colleagues, only Peter is willing to help.”“Even though I’m really annoyed to admit it, I regret betrayi

“Why is that impossible?” Peter smiled as he stood up. “I am indeed interested in buying one of your family’s companies, Clara. But I might change my mind if you continue to be cynical and rude to me.”“Mr. Peter, please forgive my daughter’s behavior. She’s truly foolish and doesn’t know what she’s doing,” said Clara’s father. “What are you doing, Dad?” Clara pulled her father’s hand. “He’s just a poor man. He works as a waiter at one of the cafes. There’s no way he could buy our family business.”“Shut your mouth, Clara!” The man slapped Clara, glaring at her sharply. “You almost destroyed our family.”Clara staggered backward and fell onto the sofa. She stared at her father while holding her cheek. “Why did you slap me, Dad? You....”Clara held back her tears and her embarrassment in front of Peter. She felt sick to her stomach, especially when she saw Peter smiling at her. Peter said, “I’m truly offended by what Clara said. I’m going to cancel my plan to buy one of your family’s

Jennifer waited outside the room while the doctors examined her father. She paced back and forth, ignoring the stares of the guards and servants around her.“Oh, my God.” Jennifer let out a long sigh for the umpteenth time. She finally stood in front of the door, remembering her time with her father at the restaurant some time ago.“Everything was fine until the explosion.”Jennifer closed her eyes tightly for a moment, pacing back and forth again. “I begged and threatened my father just to accompany me to dinner. I also asked the guards not to come with us.”Jennifer clenched her fists tightly. “I deliberately asked my father to disguise himself so people wouldn’t recognize him. But the bad guy still recognized him and tried to harm him.”“I was shocked when my father suddenly pushed me, almost falling. Just as I was about to get angry, I saw my father lying on the floor, bleeding. Shortly after, the lights suddenly went out, and panic ensued.”“Luckily, the bullet only hit my father

“Take this paper and leave immediately,” Peter whispered near the woman, handing her a small ball of paper.“What the...” The woman was startled, quickly turned around, and froze when she saw a small ball of paper in her hand. She couldn’t see who had spoken and handed her the paper.Peter hurried away from the woman, pushed by the crowd that was gathering around the man who claimed to be a doctor.“Oh, my God.” The woman was pushed back, causing her to drop the paper moon in her hand.The increasingly violent guests trampled the ball of paper.“Where is the paper?” The woman shone her flashlight at the floor. “There it is. That talkative woman trampled on the ball of paper.”“Get out of my way!” the woman shouted, pushing her away. “You stepped on…”“You’re the one who pushed me away, Miss! I need that doctor more!” The middle-aged woman moved forward with the push from the side.The paper moon slipped off the middle-aged woman’s shoe, sticking firmly to the floor. Several people con
