The founder of Crest Co. had both vision and wisdom.By transferring half of his shares to River, he had effectively locked River at Crest Co., ensuring that as long as the company thrived, he would continue to profit.Indeed, the founder had already reaped immense rewards and had gone from a man on the brink of bankruptcy to a billionaire.His wealth would only grow from here.Now that Crest Co. had essentially become River’s company, there was no way River would abandon it for another corporation.Instead, he would pour all his efforts into making Crest Co. bigger and better.The founder rarely involved himself in operations; River called all the shots. Even during the occasional meetings of critical importance, the founder deferred to River’s judgment.These days, his life revolved around his teenage daughter and son in middle school, with plenty of leisure time to travel with his wife, all while earning massive annual profits.It was truly a carefree lifestyle that inspired

“You did hit him, so apologizing is the right thing to do,” Damian said.“I already apologized very sincerely. I even explained to everyone present that it was a misunderstanding and my fault. I even iced his face for him. I did everything I was supposed to.“You don’t know how shameless he is! Just now, he called and demanded I treat him to dinner. He said if I don’t, he’s going to tell on me to Grandpa and accuse me of taking advantage of him, and ask me to take responsibility.“He said my palm ‘kissed’ his face, so that’s equivalent to taking advantage of him!”“Only River could twist getting slapped into something so outlandish. I have to admit, even I’m impressed by how easily shit like this comes out of his mouth.”Damian internally rolled his eyes. The man was obviously just making excuses to have a meal with her.Hearing his sister’s words only confirmed his suspicions that River had feelings for her.Outwardly, though, he played along. “Then he really is shameless. What

In the past, whenever Rosalie stole business from River, he would sometimes storm into the Summit Group office to settle the score, too.After years of watching their battles, the employees had grown accustomed to it.“I went specifically to confront him, but he had guests, so I let him off for now.” Rosalie painted herself as the victorious one.“Oh, really?” Damian walked over and sat across from her, amused. “Then why do you look so upset? You lost, didn’t you?“How could I lose? Can you not talk him up while putting me down? When I go up against River, I really don’t lose that often.”It was probably around half the time.Okay, fine. It was more than half.“I even slapped him.”She muttered, “I’ve wanted to stuff him in a sack and beat him up for ages.”“You actually hit him? Now that’s a bit much.”Rosalie grumbled, “Whose side are you on, brother? I’m your sister! River is our sworn enemy, and Crest Co. keeps expanding. They’ve even opened branches now.“We can’t affor

River chuckled. “You want to tattle to Serenity? Go ahead. If you complain to her, I’ll go complain to Old Mr. Lafayette.“Better yet, I’ll tell the whole city that you took advantage of me and are refusing to take responsibility.”Rosalie took a deep breath, forcing herself to stay calm. Then, she retorted, “Go ahead. Why stop there? Just say I slept with you and then abandoned you! Do you dare?”River fell silent for a moment before replying, “Rosalie, do you actually have feelings for me? Did you target me all these years because you like me?”“You’re insane! You’ve been targeting me, too. Why don’t you think you like me instead?”“You’re not my type,” River said bluntly. “If you were, I wouldn’t have spent all these years fighting with you. I’d have found a way to reconcile and turn us into business partners.”Rosalie scoffed. “What a coincidence. You’re not my type either, and I couldn’t care less about your affection. Plenty of people adore me.”Deep down, though, she was

Rosalie did not even hesitate before replying: [You said it yourself. As long as I helped ice your face and reduce the swelling, that was enough. When I left, the swelling was barely noticeable unless someone looked closely.[You let me go. Now you’re making new demands? River York, are you trying to extort me?[Let me make this clear—I won’t be threatened. If you’re not satisfied, go ahead and call the police. I’m not afraid of you reporting me now.]At this point, the swelling on his face had mostly gone down. Even if he went to the police, they would not find much evidence.River’s next message came through: [If you don’t treat me to dinner, I’ll camp out in your office all day tomorrow. I’ll chase away anyone who comes to discuss business with you just to piss you off.]Rosalie laughed in disbelief. [River, since when have you become such a scoundrel? Go right ahead. Do you really think I’m scared?]He was supposed to be accompanying Serenity and her kids tomorrow. Did he rea

There was no denying that River was a man of remarkable capability.The founder of Crest Co. had been so impressed by him that he transferred half of the company’s shares to River, effectively handing over full control.Now, the founder had no longer been involved in management. He simply sat back and collected his profits.In fact, if he had had a daughter, he would have gladly married her off to River.Once Crest Co. rose to become one of Solville’s top corporations, it became Summit Group’s biggest rival. River knew very well that Crest Co. had nearly gone bankrupt in the past because of Summit Group’s schemes.So now, every time he crossed paths with Ms. Lafayette, sparks flew. The two of them brought out the worst in each other.In Solville, everyone knew they were sworn enemies.If Rosalie was invited to a social event, the host would not dare invite River, and vice versa. No one wanted to be caught in the middle of their explosive confrontations.Clients who worked with
