"Grandma, are you really going to let Daphne Easton be in charge of this matter?" Thomas Easton spoke to the matriarch in their villa's living room.

The matriarch, as if it was the most natural thing, said, "Since Daphne secured this contract, naturally she should be responsible for it. Is there a problem?"

"Mom, you need to think this through. Daphne is, after all, a woman. If she establishes authority in the company, it won't be good for Thomas," Christopher Easton, father of Thomas interject

    In the VIP room of the bank, Evan Hugo met Isaiah Lowell, feeling a mix of excitement and anxiety. He was astounded by Isaiah's youth, having never encountered someone so young with a net worth in the billions. "Mr. Lowell, I had no idea you were so young. It's quite unexpected," Evan commented.The manager tried to flirt with Isaiah, hoping to seduce him with her charm. Unfortunately for her, Isaiah paid no attention to her deliberate leg-crossing and revealing posture."I'm here today, Mr. Hugo, hoping you can look out for Daphne Easton in the future," Isaiah stated directly, surprising Evan with his explicit support for Daphne."Mr. Lowell, I'm curious if I may ask a question," Evan said, intrigued.Isaiah, aware of Evan's curiosity, simply replied, "I am the person you're thinking of. That's all I can say."Indeed! How could someone worth billions marry into the Easton Family and endure humiliation? Was he after the Easton Family's assets? But their wort

    "If it's difficult for you, Mr. Hugo, I won't press further," Daphne said.Evan nodded, "If Miss Easton has any questions, it might be best to ask your friend. I really shouldn't disclose too much."After signing the contract, Evan promised to disburse the funds as quickly as possible, and Daphne left."This is definitely going to upset many companies," Evan could foresee the backlash he would face from other companies, but he had no choice but to agree."Mr. Hugo, with such a significant client in our hands, and considering the Easton Family's potential growth, why bother about those small fries?" the manager commented.Evan smiled, "True, but who exactly is this person? Do we have someone so wealthy in Cresthaven City?""His name is Isaiah Lowell. Maybe you should look him up?" the manager suggested."Isaiah Lowell?" Evan's brow furrowed, suddenly exclaiming in surprise, "Isaiah Lowell, the Easton Family's infamous good-for-nothing son-in-law, is

    "What... What did you say? How much was it?" Evan Hugo's face was a picture of astonishment as he hastily pushed away the cooing student nestled in his arms on the other end of the phone."Evan, it's over ten billion," the manager said.Evan took a sharp intake of breath. Although he had agreed with certain companies not to provide loans to the Easton Family and had received some benefits for it, a client with over ten billion in deposits was not someone he could afford to offend lightly.After pondering for a moment, Evan felt something was off and asked, "Why would such a wealthy person be willing to guarantee a loan for the Easton Family?""Evan, I'm not too sure myself, but he mentioned meeting tomorrow. If you don't show up, I'm worried he might really transfer his assets," the manager explained.Evan was well aware of the seriousness of this matter. Even if it meant returning all the ill-gotten gains, he would have to do so reluctantly to avoid being h

    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

    Silas Vance, acting decisively, dragged Isaiah Lowell to the bank, where Isaiah readily transferred two billion without hesitation.Watching Silas clutching the bank card, his face unable to hide the joy, Isaiah felt a speechless amusement.After all, he was once the big shot of Cresthaven City, yet here was Silas, acting like he'd never seen money before."Silas, I'm starting to doubt your reputation. Are you really getting this excited over such a small amount?" Isaiah teased.Silas clicked his tongue in disdain, "You rich folks will never understand the struggles of ordinary people. There are many who haven't seen two billion in their entire lives. Easy for you to say when you're not in their shoes."Silas had a point, and Isaiah couldn't argue with that."By the way, I heard Joseph Peterson is sending people to dig up dirt on you. You should keep a low profile for a while. Knowing his character, if he finds out you're not willing to work for him, he
