"Hmph. How much talent could a girl like her possibly have? To suddenly turn around and become the Vice President of Sunny Group—you expect me to believe she did that on her own? I don’t buy it."
Pausing for a moment, Luke grew even more incensed when

Chapter 53 - The Dragon-Headed
Duncan felt that this matter was far from simple. While Harry himself posed little threat to him, the involvement of the western barbarians changed everything."Fine. The Dragon-Headed will be recovered soon," Duncan said."Actions speak louder than words," Nathan replied, glancing at Duncan with a provocative tone.Looking at the two of them, one would think this old man and the youth were bitter rivals rather than master and disciple."Have I ever let you down?" Duncan shot back.At that moment, Bunny finished preparing the meal and came over to invite everyone to eat."Mr. MacCoinnich, it’s time to eat.""Everyone, please come inside."Nathan and Mr. White looked at each other and shook their heads. What kind of treatment was this? They were the elders, yet she invited the youngster first?Bunny realized her slip in etiquette and bowed her head, not daring to look up."You two shouldn't hold a grudge agai
Chapter 52 - Darkness
Even though Harry quickly gave chase, he was unable to find the person he was looking for."Hmph, I don't believe I can track them down," Harry muttered to himself.He suddenly remembered the spiritual backlash he had just endured. Leopold probably wouldn't find things going his way as easily as before. Left with no other choice, Harry decided to wait for Leopold to contact him and then come up with an excuse."Mr. Harry, it's been a long time." A man's voice rang out, full of respect.Harry furrowed his brows; he truly didn't recognize the man standing before him."You are..." Harry asked skeptically."I’m Aiden of the Kendrick family. We recently had a project that was successfully signed with you. It’s only natural for a busy man like you not to remember me," Aiden said with a fawning smile.In City Neon, Harry was considered a businessman of great renown with countless assets. However, what he desired was far more than
Chapter 51 - The More Mysterious, The More Interesting
Chance Stuart was indeed a capable man. He had navigated the political arena for years and endured countless setbacks, which had, in turn, shaped him into a leader with a true conscience.Because of this, Duncan didn't mind providing him with substantial protection. Moreover, the adversary Stuart faced this time possessed such formidable strength that he would likely struggle to handle it alone."You should also keep an eye on Leopold," Duncan cautioned."He is young, but he certainly has some ability," Chance Stuart remarked with an appreciative sigh.Duncan looked at him and felt that the man was indeed decent; he didn't look down on others just because he held power."You’ve been in this game for years, so I don't need to teach you how to be wary of people. However, you must be extra careful. Aside from Michael, trust no one," Duncan warned.Chance Stuart nodded in agreement."If you need anything, contact Michael," Duncan ad
Chapter 50 - Protection
Lucius, seeing that Duncan was generous and was also Kate's husband, treated him with immense politeness.Why was that?Was it even a question? Michael held a great deal of respect for Kate and had specifically instructed Lucius to look out for her. Kate had always been a daughter of the Worthington family; she was talented, but the family had suppressed her for so long. Clearly, someone powerful was backing her. Lucius was a man of great capability and keen observation, so it was only natural for him to realize Duncan possessed an extraordinary background.Kate kept her head down, picking at her food and never once looking up to join the conversation."You've been so busy lately. Have you run into any difficulties?" Duncan asked, placing a piece of seaweed in Kate's bowl."It's fine, nothing I can't handle," Kate replied without looking up.To anyone watching, it simply appeared as though she were being shy."Actually, the workload i
Chapter 49 - A Fine Meal
Duncan followed Gianni’s suggestion and called Kate.At that moment, Kate was still buried in work. Seeing Duncan’s name on the screen, she hesitated, unsure whether to answer. Just as she was about to press the button, Lucius entered the room."General Manager Kate, is there anything amiss with this new project?" Lucius asked. He was truly focused on work and profit.His attentiveness toward Kate was largely because he had been entrusted with her care by someone far above him; it was quite a burden on his mind."It seems it’s already noon. Don't you plan on eating something?" Lucius asked with a show of concern.Kate, for reasons of her own, decided to decline the call. She turned to Lucius with a more relaxed smile."Not yet. The project is going very smoothly. Mr. Harney, haven't you... eaten anything either?" Kate asked with a light laugh."Me? I haven't had the chance," Lucius replied, preparing to leave.
Chapter 48 - Edward’s Release
Harry looked at Leopold, noting the man’s potential; he certainly knew how to climb over others to get ahead.It was precisely for this reason that Harry wanted to groom him. After all, having more eyes and ears was never a bad thing. Cultivating a useful pawn would only benefit his future schemes."Edward is about to be released from prison," Leopold said, his voice laced with anxiety."Good behavior, early release; it’s common enough," Harry replied, dismissing the concern as if it were nothing."You should be more worried about why the gangs and underworld of City Neon vanished overnight. Even Sage and Cody are leading the charge as model citizens. Don't you find that strange?" This was the puzzle currently occupying Harry’s mind.He suspected a connection between the White family’s situation and this recent upheaval. Although the methods differed, Harry had a strong gut feeling that he had finally met a formidable oppone
