That night Adrian lay in his room, even though he was not sleepy yet. Not long after, a message from Anders came in.Adrian's eyes narrowed when he read the notification because he thought Anders was undergoing medical treatment. There must be something important.Adrian read the message."Mr. Reid, I am Leo. I am very worried about my Grandpa.""The doctors have tried to attach a robotic leg to Grandpa.""But Grandpa's body keeps rejecting the robotic leg and his condition has dropped drastically because of it."Leo sent a crying sticker."What should I do, Mr. Reid?""Can you help me?"Adrian did not answer right away. He had indeed thought a robotic leg could be the solution. But the reality was that not every body could accept an attachment of a foreign object and function normally.Adrian replied to the message, "Leo, where are you now?"A few seconds later the answer came, "I am at the Harvey mansion. They don’t allow me to see my Grandpa."Leo bit his own lip. After holding bac

After dinner was over and they had talked for quite a while, Blake said, "I am very glad I could meet all of you tonight.""But my old body is asking me to go home and rest."Adrian answered, "If you are too tired to go home, you can stay the night here."Blake laughed. "Thank you for the offer. But no.""There is something I have to do at home tomorrow morning."Adrian nodded in understanding. "Alright, that is fine.""My door is always open for you."After Blake said goodbye.Vivian began to feel sleepy and there was nothing else she wanted to talk about.Vivian moved her electric wheelchair. "Adrian, I am going to rest.""Thank you for letting me join."Adrian nodded. "Yes."Vivian then left the dining room.After that, Evelina and Elysia rose from their chairs to go home together.In her heart Elysia wanted to thank Adrian and apologize more personally."Ad—"But, before she could do that, Evelina's phone rang. Evelina accepted the video call.On the screen of Evelina's phone appe

Elysia immediately contacted the Bradly Finance administrator. Not long after, the call connected, "Sir, please stop the seizure of the Harris family villa.""I already have two million dollars.""I want to redeem that villa."The voice of a finance officer was heard from the other end. "I understand. I will check again."After a brief administrative check, the officer answered, "Please transfer the money and your villa will be released."Elysia followed the instruction. Not long after, a phone call from Maverick connected. "Elysia, what did you just do?""They just said this villa has been redeemed!""Oh my god! And here I was ready to sleep on a shop doorstep!"Elysia nodded, "I already redeemed that villa."Maverick's eyes widened. "You redeemed it?""Earlier you said you did not have money and did not want to spend money for that villa?""Why did you change your mind?"Elysia shook her head. "Yes, earlier you were right. But what matters now is that the villa has been successfully

Adrian was not angry with Blake for saying that. The problem with the Bradly family was indeed an easy matter for Adrian if Elysia was willing to ask him for help.Instead, he was curious about what Elysia would do.For a moment Adrian and Elysia looked at each other. Elysia had indeed apologized to Adrian about the trigger of the problem not long ago. But Adrian did not say anything.Besides, she was no longer Adrian's girlfriend, and she did not dare to ask for more in front of the women she thought were his girlfriends.Elysia smiled awkwardly at Blake. "Thank you for the suggestion.""But this problem is our business. Let us handle it ourselves."Blake leaned back in his chair. "What a shame."Then he said softly, "You are indeed a brave and responsible person."Elysia smiled shyly, "Mr. Harrison, you are exaggerating."After that awkwardness passed, Elysia looked at Evelina, "I will not sell my shares anymore, Miss Harvey.""Thank you for your trust and interest in AEON."The smi

Evelina's smile widened. "What do you think?"Elysia did not answer right away. Her mind was torn with uncertainty.After all, Evelina's offer was an instant solution for AEON to get a large amount of money and grow.But If she agreed to that offer, Elysia would indeed no longer own any AEON shares. But as AEON grew, Elysia, as the inventor of AEON, could still earn royalties.Even so, for Elysia, AEON was not just a business. It was also a monument of her love for Alistair, something more than money.If she sold her shares again, she felt like she was selling the only child she had.After thinking for a while, Elysia decided, "Miss Harvey, thank you for your offer. But–"Suddenly Elysia's phone rang, showing Maverick's name. She immediately accepted the video call.On the screen appeared Maverick's pale face. He said, "Elysia, do something right now!""The bank is seizing the villa!""I am on my way home because I got a report that mommy is in shock and hysterical!"Elysia froze. She

Blake put down his spoon and looked at Evelina calmly. "Actually I have known about the AEON project since a year ago from Everett Bradly.""He was the initial investor of this project because of his friendship with Mr. Reid."He paused for a moment, looking at the faces of the three women in the room in turn. The three women seemed to be paying attention to Blake's story."But since last month, I heard Everett withdrew his investment.""I wondered if something had happened I did not know about regarding AEON.""But at the Rospula scientist conference, I saw Mr. Reid presenting AEON well.""So I thought, there must be a slight misunderstanding here."Blake's gaze turned to Elysia. "Do you know about this?""What actually happened?""Why did Everett withdraw his investment?"Elysia swallowed with difficulty. And quickly she connected Everett and the investment withdrawal with the incident at the Golden Queen restaurant.And indeed, the time of the investment withdrawal for AEON occurre
