Chapter 26 Caroline's Purpose

Caroline was still shocked by the dinner incident in the evening while contemplating her future development.

In fact, she had come to Pras City on a family mission.

Her father had told her that top-secret information indicated the Smith family had found their young master who had been missing for years.

Moreover, they had purchased the Delaney Group and gifted it to this young master.

In other words, the Smith family's young master was in Pras City, and he was the chairman of the Delaney Group.

Although the Mellon family was the leading family in Neon City,

they only ranked second-tier there.

They paled in comparison to the Smith family.

Therefore, the Mellon family hoped that Caroline could take the opportunity to contact the Smith family's young master before his identity was made public.

It would be ideal if she could develop a relationship with him and facilitate a marriage alliance between the two families.

While Caroline felt somewhat repelled by such a plan, she dared not neglect it when she thought of the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the family resting on her shoulders.

She had traveled all the way to Pras City and prepared to join the Delaney Group in order to find opportunities to meet the mysterious chairman of the Delaney Group

and figure out ways to attract his attention.

Caroline is absolutely a super beauty in Neon City.

She believes that with her good looks, knowledge, ability, and untouched purity, she should be able to attract the attention of the Smith family's young master.

If she could truly marry him, the Mellon family would become even stronger!

They would leap to become a first-class family in Neon City!

At the thought of this, she feels full of anticipation for tomorrow's job orientation.

She is also filled with curiosity about the mysterious young master of the Smith family.

She can't help but wonder: How old is this young master of the Smith family? What does he look like?

Is he elegant, tall, and handsome?

She can't resist taking out her phone, opening a video app, and clicking on a video in her favorites with tens of millions of views.

This is the video of Alan slapping the sales director with cash at the Elia Jewelry Store.

She has analyzed this video before and knows it was taken in Pras City, which happens to coincide with the time when news broke about the Smith family's eldest son being found.

Therefore, she speculates that the god-like tycoon in the video is likely the Smith family's eldest son and chairman of the Delaney Group.

She stares intently at the back of the god-like tycoon in the footage, watching and pondering carefully.

From the blurry video, it can be roughly seen that the famously wealthy figure online is probably in his mid-twenties, tall and thin, though his face is unclear.

His physique looks very good, no worse than those Korean "long-legged oppas" (handsome men with tall figures).

With such a good figure, his face can't be too bad, right!

However, a strange feeling suddenly welled up in Caroline's heart—this person somehow seemed familiar to Alan.

On closer thought, she dismissed it as impossible. Alan was the son-in-law of the Mill family. What was the Mill family's standing?

They couldn't even hold a candle to the Smith family. If Alan were truly the Smith family's eldest son, how could he have married into such a minor family?

She must be overthinking it!

The next day, Caroline arrived at Delaney Group bright and early.

Vivian, the vice chairman, personally handled her onboarding.

Vivian took her on a tour of the administrative department, introducing her to the team's functions.

"Caroline," she said, "if you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask me directly or come to my office."

Caroline nodded gratefully and ventured, "Vice Chairman Vivian, I wonder if I'll have the opportunity to meet the chairman?

Since I'll be handling the company's administrative affairs, I'm worried I might accidentally slight him if I don't know who he is."

Vivian instantly grew wary.

Alan had told her just two days prior to keep an eye on Caroline. The fact that Caroline was already asking about the chairman suggested she might have an ulterior motive.

She wondered what this beautiful young woman's true purpose was in traveling all the way to join Delaney Group.

"The chairman rarely comes to the office," Vivian replied. "But if he does visit, I'll mention you. I'll notify you if he agrees to meet."

Caroline felt a twinge of disappointment but smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Vice Chairman Vivian!"

When Vivian returned to her office, she reported the incident to Alan.

Upon hearing that Caroline had just reported to the company and wanted to meet him, Alan became even more vigilant.

This woman was indeed here for him. What was her purpose?

Did she want to get close to him to harm him or to seduce him?

Whichever it was, Alan felt a sense of revulsion.

He decided to have as little contact with Caroline as possible and, above all, not let her discover his true identity!

The evening of Caroline's first day at work, Alan's wife Mia specially reserved a table at a high-end hotel to treat her to dinner.

As Mia's husband, Alan naturally had to accompany them.

This left Alan feeling somewhat annoyed.

He had just prepared to keep his distance from Caroline, yet here he was about to have dinner with her that very night.

Despite his annoyance, he got ready and went to the restaurant with Mia.

However, upon arriving at the restaurant, Alan realized that Mia had actually booked the Sky City in the Ritz-Carlton Hotel!

The Sky City Banquet Hall was primarily used to (host high-end guests) and never offered any form of private booking service.

However, Alan had reserved it for a private event on his wedding anniversary, which was an unprecedented occurrence for the Ritz-Carlton.

Only three days remained until their wedding anniversary.

A large, eye-catching notice had already been placed at the entrance of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel:

Three days later, Sky City will be reserved for a distinguished guest. All other guests will be declined during this period. Thank you for your understanding!

Everyone who saw this notice was astonished!

Someone had booked out the Sky City at the Ritz-Carlton?

"This is a place that never offers private booking services!

It is said that even the children of several high-ranking officials wanted to hold their weddings here, but all were rejected without exception.

Who on earth has the influence to book the entire Sky City from the Ritz-Carlton?"

Mia exclaimed in surprise when she saw the eye-catching notice.

"The Sky City has been booked privately?

That's simply unbelievable!"

Alan smiled and said, "What's so unbelievable about it?

It's a banquet hall, after all. Isn't private booking allowed?"

"You don't understand," Mia said seriously. "The Ritz-Carlton is not a local enterprise. It's a top global hotel chain.

Their Sky City is one of their major features, exclusively serving high-end guests.

If they allowed private bookings, where a big shot books it one day and another big shot books it the next, other high-end guests wouldn't be able to use it normally.

That's why they simply don't offer private booking services to the public."

    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.

    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
