2026-10-26 02:00:11Early the next morning, sunlight streamed into the room. Sophie opened her eyes and found herself lying in bed. Her face fell immediately, "Didn't I fall asleep in the study yesterday? How did I get back to the room?"
She dashed out of the room and found only her father, Julian, sitting in the courtyard drinking tea. She quickly asked, "Dad, where is everyone?""They've all gone out."Julian sipped his tea, enjoying the morning sun, and said, "Serena went to work, Xavier took S

"Hurry, you take the old man back later, I'll handle the discharge procedures. No matter how much money Xavier paid, get it refunded."Ivan pulled Warren towards the VIP ward, and after finding out which room Xerxes was in, they rushed over.Just as they were about to barge into the room, two imposing men in black blocked their way at the door, "What are you doing?""Sorry, wrong room."Ivan and Warren's faces turned pale with fear, and they quickly apologized in a low voice while hurriedly heading towards other wards."No, the nurse clearly said Xerxes is in that room."After searching for a long time, checking almost every ward, they returned to that room and asked the two men, "Excuse me, is Xerxes staying in there?""Why are you asking so much?" The two men's eyes were extremely sharp."I-I'm his son, my name is Warren. We want to see my dad," Warren said, forcing himself to speak quietly."Sorry, without permission, no one is allowed

"Xavier?"On the bed, Old Lewis slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw Xavier sitting by the bedside, he was stunned.Then, shaking his head, he said sadly, "I must be imagining things. Xavier was expelled from the family by me, and I told him never to return. He's a good child; once he promised not to come back, he would never return.""Adoptive Father, it's me."Xavier held Old Lewis's hand, with tears welling up in his eyes, "Your Xavier is back, returning with honor after five years.""Is it really you?"Old Lewis's eyes showed a look of joy, but due to his weak body, he was overwhelmed with emotion and became drowsy, "Good, good, it's great you're back. Seeing you once before I die is enough, enough..."Seeing Old Lewis faint again, Xavier looked anxious and urgently called out, "Call the doctor."Outside the door, a man dressed in black swiftly exited.Soon, a specialist, sweating profusely, was brought in, "Let me take a look, don

"You disobedient son, what on earth have you done?""You idiot, it's bad enough you cause trouble outside, but now you're dragging the family into it. Your father and I are innocent!"Howard's father and wife were both furious.After angrily scolding Howard, they turned to Xavier, their faces pleading. Howard's father, Harrison, spoke, "Sir, I don't know how this disobedient son offended you, but there's an unwritten rule: don't drag family into it.""Yes, if he truly offended you, then deal with him. However, Howard's boss is Trevor, the general manager of Goldsmith Group. Shouldn't you contact Mr. Trevor before making a decision?"Howard's wife, Sylvia, said cautiously, her eyes flickering.Both of them were smart and have experience in the underworld.They knew very well that being too tough at this moment would only lead to a quicker death. It was better to show weakness while informing the other party that Howard's backer was Trevor, the gener

In the hospital room, after a moment of stunned silence, the group burst into laughter."Boss, who's this clueless punk? Has he played too many games and thinks he's still in one? Hahaha.""Exactly, he even dares to say he'll kill our whole family. In Cloud City, who would dare touch us?""Haha, this kid's hilarious, really cracks me up."The group behind the man laughed so hard they could barely breathe.The leading man couldn't stop smiling either, pointing at Xavier and saying, "Hey kid, do you even know who I am? Haha, I'm Howard, the manager of the security department at Goldsmith Group. In Cloud City, Goldsmith Group practically runs the show.""Not even Daniel would dare say he'd kill my whole family, let alone you, haha.""I've just returned from out of town. Care to explain what's going on here?" Xavier slowly spoke.His voice was extremely calm, seemingly devoid of any emotion.Howard dismissed it, glancing at Xavier with disdai

At the entrance of the rundown house, Xavier's expression shifted dramatically, urgency filled his eyes. "Tell me, how is Xerxes?""Lying in the hospital, almost gone."Ivan, Xavier's sister-in-law, snapped out of her shock at Xavier's sudden appearance, with an indifferent expression. "It's good you're back. Hurry to the hospital, maybe you can still see him one last time.""Which hospital?" Xavier took a deep breath, his body slightly trembling."First Hospital."After Ivan finished speaking, she looked at Xavier still blocking her way and said impatiently, "Move aside, I've got a mahjong game to attend, don't block the way."With that, she pushed Xavier aside, turned around to close the door, and walked away with a swagger."Xerxes is in the hospital, and the daughter-in-law is going to play mahjong?"Xavier watched Ivan's back with disappointment in his eyes, "My brother must have been blind to marry someone like you."Ignoring Ivan,

Early the next morning, after the couple dropped their daughter off at kindergarten, Sophie asked Xavier, "What do you plan to do with Sophie&Xavier Group next?""Well, that depends on you, my dear. From today on, you're the chairperson of Sophie&Xavier Group. I'm just here to support you. Whatever you need, I'll provide," Xavier said with a smile."I don't intend to be the chairperson."Sophie shook her head and said, "I want to start from the ground up. When I work my way up and feel capable of managing Sophie&Xavier Group, then I'll take over.""Oh..."Xavier was taken aback, not expecting his wife to have such plans."Darling, how about you just become the general manager?" Xavier suggested."No, I know my own abilities. I'm not yet qualified to be the general manager. If you're willing, let me start from the bottom at Sophie&Xavier Group. If not, I'll find another job," Sophie said determinedly.In fact, Sophie had been st
