Mia was still a bit dazed and could only nod.

Thunderous applause erupted from the audience immediately, and the crowd looked at Mia with intense admiration.

Who on earth has this woman become closely associated with!

The Delaney Group values her so highly!

Mia herself was also completely confused. She turned her head to look at Allen.

The current situation was exactly as Allen had said before.

Even after the banquet ended and they got home, Mia was still in a state of bewilderment.

Remembering what Allen had said before, she couldn't help but feel a bit suspicious.

In the past few days, Allen seemed to have changed.

There seemed to be many things about him that she didn't know.

That night, Mia became extremely famous in Pras City!

Everyone knew that an outstanding younger generation had emerged in the Mill family, someone who could get the full support of the Delaney Group!

It seemed that with her around, the revitalization of the Mill family was just around the corner.

Early the next morning, Mia woke up refreshed and rushed to the company.

Today was her first day as the general manager, and she hoped to go all out and do a good job.

After getting up, Allen, as usual, started doing household chores.

Just as Allen finished his housework and was about to go to the market to buy groceries for lunch, he suddenly received a call from his mother-in-law.

As soon as he answered the phone, his mother-in-law's extremely anxious voice came through.

Allen, come to Palino Insurance Company right away. After saying that, she hung up the phone.

Allen was completely confused. His mother-in-law had been nowhere to be found since early in the morning.

Suddenly she called at this moment, and it seemed that something urgent had happened.

Although Allen was really annoyed with his mother-in-law, he didn't dare to neglect her call.

After quickly tidying up, he went out and hailed a taxi, heading for Palino Insurance Company.

As soon as he got out of the taxi, he saw a group of people aggressively surrounding the entrance of the insurance company, whose doors were tightly closed.

And his mother-in-law was right at the front of the group.

With an angry expression on her face, she was shouting, "Damn Palino! You're a fraudulent platform! Give me back my hard-earned money!"

Allen hurried forward and asked, "Mom, why did you call me here? What's going on?"

As he was speaking, the accusing slogans rang out again in his ears.

Ivy pulled Allen over and ordered, "Come on, you shout this slogan for me.

I've been shouting all morning, and my throat is hoarse."

Allen didn't understand why, but he could only join in the protest.

While shouting the slogans, he asked the people around him from time to time, and then he finally understood what had happened.

It turned out that Palino Insurance Co., Ltd. had been dealing with insurance products that promised extremely high returns.

These people had been attracted by the high returns and had all bought a lot of the company's insurance products, becoming its customers.

Normally, it was already the time for dividends. When they came to withdraw their money,

they found that the whole company's doors were closed, and only a few employees were at the door, making clumsy excuses to fob off the crowd.

This group of people then realized that they had been deceived.

No wonder his mother-in-law had urgently called him here and asked him to join her in safeguarding their rights.

Thinking of this, Allen felt a headache coming on. He couldn't help asking his mother-in-law, "Mom, how much insurance did you buy?"

Ivy said in a panic, "I used all our family's savings to buy their products..."

Allen was shocked and said, "What? You used all the family's money to buy financial insurance?"

Upon hearing this, Ivy flew into a rage, "Why are you speaking so loudly? Do you think I'm not embarrassed enough?"

As she spoke, she continued to scold Allen, "If you were capable at all, would I have to buy insurance products from this company?

It's bad enough that you can't support our family, and now you dare to criticize me!"

Then, she said to Allen again, "I'm telling you, keep shouting the slogan for me. Don't stop for a moment!"

Allen had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay, Mom."

At this moment, several aunts came over. After sizing up Allen, they asked Ivy, "Is this your son-in-law?"

As they spoke, they glanced at what Allen was wearing.

Shaking their heads, they sneered, "He looks so shabby. He's not as good as my son-in-law."

Yeah, the clothes he's wearing are really poor quality!

He's not even as good as an old woman like me!

Several people chimed in one after another, and the ridicule in their words was particularly harsh.

Allen didn't care at all. These were just a group of old women who were half in the grave.

Now that they had lost their life savings, he wasn't going to bother with them.

Ivy was also extremely angry. The more she looked at Allen, the more she disliked him.

She said, "I'll ask my daughter to divorce him in a few days!

I'll find a better son-in-law!"

Allen sneered in his heart. Even if all the rich second-generation people in Pras City were put together, they still couldn't compare to one of his fingers.

Ivy was extremely anxious. Allen was a good-for-nothing. At most, he could only help her shout slogans.

To get her investment back, she needed someone with real ability to help solve the problem.

It was a pity that Rod, who had been pursuing her daughter, had gone bankrupt. Otherwise, she could have asked him for help!

Ivy suddenly remembered Cyril, whom she had met at the family banquet yesterday.

Judging from the way he had been attentive to her daughter, he probably had some thoughts about her.

Although the Hardy family couldn't compare to the Walli family before, it was still a big family.

If she called him over, he should be able to come up with a solution.

Coincidentally, Cyril had left his business card with her yesterday.

So she immediately took out her phone and dialed Cyril's number.

The call was quickly connected.

Ivy said as soon as she opened her mouth, "Hello, is this Cyril?

Yes, I'm Mia's mother..."

Since Cyril met Mia at the banquet, he was immediately stunned by her beauty and couldn't forget her.

He was just worried that he had no chance to get close to Mia, and coincidentally, Mia's mother called him.

He speculated that Ivy was in trouble, and immediately greeted her politely, "Auntie, are you in some kind of trouble?"

Yeah, there's something I need your help with.

Ivy said in a hurry, "Cyril, I and some of my old sisters bought some financial products from an insurance company called Palino.

We've invested all our money, but now this company won't let us withdraw our funds. Can you find a way to help me get my money back?"

After hearing this, Cyril was overjoyed and felt that it was time to show his abilities.

He said confidently, "Auntie, don't worry. I'll come to you right away and definitely help you solve this problem!"

Ivy was immediately excited and said eagerly, "Thank you so much!"

After hanging up the phone, she looked at Allen again.

She said angrily, "Some people have no ability at all. They're simply unreliable. Apart from being able to shout a few slogans, what else are they good for?"

After hearing this, Allen sneered in his heart. This mother-in-law is really blind.

Ask Cyril for help?

This company has defrauded at least tens of millions or even more in funds.

Those who dare to defraud such a large amount of money must have extremely powerful backgrounds.

It's even very likely that there are big shots in the underworld backing them.

The Hardy family doesn't have much strength in itself. After the Delaney Group terminated its cooperation with them, their strength has shrunk even more.

With the background of the Hardy family, it's basically impossible to interfere in such a huge financial fraud.

    Ito Keiko also stood up quickly and knelt down right behind her aunt. "Allen‑kun, please accept my bow of gratitude!" she said sincerely.Allen let out a soft sigh and spoke earnestly, "Please both of you get up. There is really no need for this. By chance, I lent the Ito family some help, but in the end, it is the Ito family’s own good fortune that allowed you to survive this disaster."Only then did Ito Emi and Keiko rise to their feet.Ito Emi turned to Ito Takehiko. "Brother, Mr. Allen is right. Beyond his help, our family has truly met with rare good fortune. We can absorb the market shares left behind by the Takahashi and Matsumoto clans. With the Takahashi family badly weakened, we can push forward our partnership talks with the Bruce family. At this point, the Bruce family will have no other choice but us.""No!" Ito Takehiko replied without the slightest hesitation. "From now on, we will not enter into any form of cooperation with the Bruce family."Ito Emi could not hide her

    Allen told him the truth, "I was originally in Osaka to take over Kobayashi Pharmaceutical’s production lines there. I heard Miss Keiko was staying in Kyoto, and since it was only a forty‑minute drive from Osaka to Kyoto, I decided to go visit her. I never expected to arrive just as the Fujibayashi clan’s ninjas were attacking her, so I stepped in."He sighed as he spoke, "It was pure luck. Had I shown up any later, there would have been nothing I could do."Ito Takehiko nodded, filled with lingering fear. "We truly owe everything to you, Mr. Allen."Anger welled up inside him, and he said coldly, "The Fujibayashi ninjas served Takahashi Machi. I cannot for the life of me figure out why he would target me. We were both competing for a partnership with the Bruce family. Even with past frictions and bad blood between us, there was no reason to send assassins after my daughter!"Allen’s brows drew tight at once. "What did you say? The Bruce family? Which Bruce family?!"Ito Takehiko expl

    After the double‑leg amputation, the doctors had put him on a pain pump, so he barely felt any physical agony. Still, constant worry over Ito Keiko, who was far away in Kyoto, kept him from sleeping soundly.He had just dreamed that Keiko had met with misfortune in Kyoto. The nightmare jolted him awake at once, and he intended to tell his younger sister Ito Emi to send people to bring Keiko back to Tokyo without delay.Yet what he had never dreamed of was that when the ward door swung open, his beloved precious daughter Ito Keiko walked in together with his sister Ito Emi."Keiko?!" Ito Takehiko blurted out in shock. "What are you doing here?"Seeing her father lying pale and bloodless on the hospital bed, with thick bandages wrapped around his knees and everything below gone forever, Ito Keiko burst into tears and cried out, "Oto‑san!"She rushed over to the bedside, grabbed Ito Takehiko’s hand, and wept bitterly.It took Ito Takehiko a moment to collect himself. Relieved and deeply

    Sitting in the passenger seat, Ito Keiko stayed tense throughout the whole ride. Even though Ito Takehiko had said over the phone that he was out of danger, Keiko still harbored quiet worries.A little over three hours later, Allen pulled into Tokyo and stopped at the gate of the University of Tokyo Hospital, the top‑rated medical facility in the city.This hospital boasted Japan’s highest global ranking and represented the nation’s pinnacle of medical care.Once the car came to a full stop, Keiko could not wait to push open the door and get out. Before stepping out, however, she turned to Allen and asked, "Allen‑kun, will you come upstairs with me?"Allen looked slightly awkward. "Your father might not want to see me."Keiko said earnestly, "Allen‑kun, you saved my life. No matter how big the misunderstandings or grudges between you two are, I believe Father will no longer hold them against you!"Allen thought for a brief moment and replied, "Very well, I will go with you."His reaso

    Allen couldn’t help laughing and said, “If your dad heard that, he’d probably be furious.”Ito Keiko stuck out her tongue. She was about to speak when her phone suddenly vibrated.She looked confused. “Who would be calling this late? Could the servants have noticed we snuck out?”She quickly pulled out her phone and gasped in surprise. “Oh no, it’s Father!”She never expected her father to call her so late at night.She said nervously to Allen, “Allen‑kun, I need to take this call from my father…”Allen nodded with a smile. “Go ahead.”Keiko quickly answered the phone and asked cautiously, “Father, why are you calling me so late? Is something wrong?”Ito Takehiko’s weak voice came over the line. “Keiko, I’ve had an accident. I’m calling to make sure you’re safe. Is everything all right over in Kyoto?”Keiko asked anxiously, “Father! What happened to you? Are you badly hurt?”Takehiko replied, “Tanaka and I were hunted down by attackers. We barely managed to escape. But I’m afraid they

    Upon hearing those words, Matsumoto Yoshito completely broke down. He lifted his head and shouted hysterically, “Why! Why wipe out my entire Matsumoto clan?! Why push for total extermination?!”The woman let out a cold laugh. “This is the price you pay for provoking the Bruce family!”Tears instantly streamed down Matsumoto Yoshito’s face. Mixed with blood, they made his whole look utterly gruesome.All will to live had deserted him. He mumbled, “Kill me. Kill me right now.”The woman nodded and pulled out a sunflower‑seed‑shaped carving of white jade from her pocket. “Matsumoto Yoshito, before you die, I want you to remember my name. I’m Suzie.”With a flick of her wrist, the jade sunflower seed shot forward at high speed.The next instant, a tiny bloody hole appeared in the center of Matsumoto Yoshito’s forehead. All life drained from his body, and he crashed to the ground, dead.Meanwhile, at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.The police chief finally breathed a sigh of reli
