Chapter 21
As soon as Caleb stepped outside the villa, his phone rang. It was Old Master Julius, asking him to come to the Knight Family residence to discuss their next move.Caleb didn’t bother hiding his intention to destroy the Thompson Family—not from someone like Julius Knight, the business genius of Fluxville. There was nothing worth hiding from a man like that.So, he agreed and made his way to the Knight residence.Now, inside Julius Knight’s private study—hidden in the eastern wing of the estate—the room was warm, filled with the scent of aged wood and ginseng tea. A massive map of Fluxville was spread out across a long black marble table, littered with pins, red strings, and tiny notes.Old Man Julius stood in front of the map, pointing toward the western district of the city. “This is the Thompson Family’s headquarters. Clean on the outside, but their pharmaceutical distribution... has cracks. They’re smuggling experimental drugs from overseas through a chain of illegal clinics.”Cale

Every head turned. The room fell into an instant hush. Ethan and Arnold were both stunned—they hadn’t invited him.Arnold stood up, voice filled with disbelief. “O-old Master Julius… what an honor. We didn’t expect you to be here.”Old Master Julius replied flatly, “I heard there was a party. Sounded interesting. But… I’m not fond of parties that exist just to humiliate others.”All eyes turned to Ethan. Julius slowly walked toward Caleb and stopped behind him.He looked at Ethan with a cold gaze. “Careful, Kid. You have no idea how deep the roots go… of someone you think is beneath you.”Ethan frowned, trying to stay composed. “I don’t understand, Old Master Julius…”Julius gave a faint smile. “Sometimes, a lion sleeps among sheep. Only a fool thinks it’s smart to kick it for fun.”He gave Caleb a pat on the shoulder, then turned and walked out, saying over his shoulder, “This party is boring. Not worth my time. Goodbye.”Logan followed behind Old Master Julius, glaring at Ethan cold

Hearing the conversation between the two men, Ava and Ethan could only sit there in stunned silence. They could barely keep up. The way these two powerful figures played with words was simply too deep.Meanwhile, Arnold leaned in, his voice dropping to a more personal tone. “Old Master Julius… let’s cut the pleasantries. You and I both know the pharmaceutical business isn’t just about healing. Sometimes… preventing too early kills the market.”Old Master Julius wasn’t surprised—he simply raised one eyebrow. “You’re starting to sound like a pharmacist… who prefers the disease to stay.”Arnold chuckled. “We don’t create the illness, Old Master Julius. We just… prolong the symptoms.”Julius’s expression turned serious. “And you think the Knight family is desperate enough to profit off pain?”Arnold stayed calm, placing a data tablet on the table and sliding it over. “Not desperate—smart. We’ve got distribution channels in lawless regions. Unlicensed generics, experimental compounds too ‘

At this point, Caleb pulled out his phone and called Amber.It didn’t take long for the call to connect.With a cheerful voice, Amber asked, “What’s up, Caleb? Do you need something?”“The Thompson family and my wife, Ava, want to meet with the Knight family to discuss a business partnership. I’d like you to accept their offer, Miss Amber. Of course, I want the biggest benefits to go to the Knight family—and make them completely dependent on you. One last thing: don’t let them know this was my idea,” Caleb said right away.After a brief silence on the other end of the line, Amber finally replied, “Alright, if that’s what you want, Caleb. My grandfather and I will handle it just the way you asked.”Hearing that, Caleb smiled with satisfaction and replied, “Thank you, Miss Amber.”Of course, Caleb wasn’t doing this to help Ava and Ethan. He wanted to trap them—make them unknowingly step into his game so that when the time came, he could crush them completely.This was the perfect first

Because Caleb had always seen Joshua like his own brother, of course he paid for all of Joshua’s education until he graduated.He even helped Joshua land a great job at a company.And yet this is how he was repaid?Caleb was so disappointed he felt like crying.Hearing what Caleb said, Joshua pulled his hand away with a disgusted look and snapped, “Screw that, Bastard! Sure, you helped me back then, but now that the Morales Family is on top, all of that means nothing to me! So tell me—how much did you spend on me? I’ll pay every cent back right now!”Ashley immediately cut in. There was no way she was going to let Caleb get all that money back! He didn’t deserve it.“No! Don’t give him a single cent, Joshua! He’s Ava’s husband—that means it was his duty to support us. You should’ve asked for more from him. For the last three years, all he’s given us is a bit of his savings and that old restaurant!”Watching Caleb get humiliated by the Morales Family, Ethan couldn’t hide his satisfied
Chapter 16
Hearing that, Old Master Julius was clearly disappointed, but he tried to hide it behind a light smile. He really didn’t expect that Caleb was already married.It had always been hard for him to find a man suitable for his granddaughter. But when he finally found one, it turned out that man was already taken. Life truly wasn’t fair.He replied, “Alright, if that’s what you want, Doctor. Don’t hesitate to contact me or Amber if you ever need help. Amber and I will be more than happy to assist you.”Amber then added, her face full of hope, “Even if you don’t want to marry me, you’ll still be my bodyguard, right, Caleb?”Caleb replied, “Of course. I still need this job, Miss Amber.”Hearing that, Amber was overjoyed. Even if she couldn’t win Caleb’s heart today, she knew she had a good shot in the future.If she worked hard enough, it wasn’t impossible to make Caleb fall for her. She just needed patience and persistence.At that moment, Caleb’s phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Ava
