CHAPTER 53: The Scent of Conspiracy Behind the Bar
The second night after the launch of the Tengda Experience Center rolled on with an intensity that had not diminished in the slightest. In the one-thousand-square-meter internet cafe area located in the Grand Riverdale Mall, the atmosphere felt like a festival of future technology. Five hundred quantum monitors emitted a hypnotic blue glow. Thousands of youths and technology enthusiasts snaked all the way to the mall's outer corridors, willing to line up for hours just to experience the allegedly legendary T-Store cloud computing speed.However, inside the soundproof back administration room, the temperature actually felt colder.Julian Vance sat alone behind his desk, staring blankly at an unopened bottle of whiskey. In
CHAPTER 52: A Launch Forced by Fate
After the financial blockade from the alliance of old wolves collapsed, there were no more legal walls or funding hurdles that could hold back the grand opening of the Tengda Experience Center. At exactly one in the afternoon, under the gazes of three women who were still throwing jealous signals at each other behind him, Julian Vance was forced to stand once again on the main stage of the Grand Riverdale Mall lobby.Thousands of visitors who had previously joined the labor solidarity action now barged in with deafening cheers. National mass media broadcasted this moment live with a bombastic headline: "The Victory of Digital Reformation Against Commercial Monopoly".However, amidst th
CHAPTER 51: Counterattack from the Shadows
Under the glow of the neon lights and the blue glare of the rows of super advanced monitors on the main stage, Julian Vance remained frozen with a blank stare. On his right side, Chloe Sterling hugged his arm tightly, her aura radiating arrogantly like a CFO who had just successfully stripped her own father's bank bare. On his left side, Elena Thorne held Julian's fingers possessively, smiling proudly because her logistics fleet had successfully made history. Meanwhile, in front of them, Nadine Prescott was busy entertaining dozens of reporters' microphones. The lawyer passionately explained how Tengda Corp had become a pioneer of justice for the working class. However, a
CHAPTER 50: Panic in the Financial Tower
09:45 AM. Fifteen minutes before the deadline for the submission of the three-million-dollar cash guarantee, the atmosphere in the main clearing room of the Riverdale Central Bank suddenly turned into an administrative hell. The giant monitor screens displaying the daily liquidity graphs suddenly flashed red. The internal warning siren wailed low but constant, indicating an anomaly of massive, simultaneous cash withdrawals across thirty sub-branches throughout Riverdale City. Arthur Sterling stood in the VIP monitoring room, his hand holding a cigar trembling violently. Beside him, Brandon Vance stared at the screens with bulging eyes, while Richard Thorne was busy callin
CHAPTER 49: The Round Table That Ignited Jealousy
Nadine Prescott stood tall behind the meeting table, completely undaunted despite being glared at sharply by the two most beautiful women in Riverdale. Her simple appearance, coupled with the legal draft in her hand, radiated an incredibly strong intellectual charm. It was in stark contrast to the luxury brought by Chloe and Elena. Chloe stepped forward. She was now so close to Nadine that the scent of her expensive designer perfume clashed with the smell of old paper from the lawyer's bag. "Miss Prescott," Chloe called out. Her tone was kept as cold as possible to mask the jealousy pounding in her chest. Her spoiled ego was truly provoked seeing this new woman looking at
CHAPTER 48: The Arrival of the Defender of the Lower Class
Morning finally arrived, bringing light clouds to the Riverdale sky. At exactly nine o'clock—just one hour before the deadline to submit the three-million-dollar cash guarantee to the bank expired—Julian sat in his chair with dark bags under his eyes.He wasn't exhausted from thinking of a solution, but rather from staying up all night to celebrate his euphoria.Just one hour left! If the guarantee fails to be submitted at exactly ten o'clock, the company's assets will be officially frozen. Arthur Sterling wins, the bank confiscates the computers, and my cash goes back to zero. Perfect!Julian thought. He stared at the wall clock hopefully, yearning for poverty.Slam!The sound of the lobby door slamming on the ground floor could be heard all the way upstairs. The footsteps of a large, loud, and noisy group echoed in the corridor, instantly stopping the bickering between Chloe and Elena, who were just about to enter round two.<
