Jacob laughed heartily, inviting Ezra and Austin to take their seats.With Ezra's status, he had to sit in the main seat. However, when they took their seats, Ezra moved to the side, allowing Austin to sit in the main seat.This scene caused Jacob's pupils to contract, and his heart skipped a beat.The next moment, when he looked at Austin again, his eyes were filled with only confusion and shock.After seating themselves, Jacob looked coldly at Brock. "Brock, what did I just tell you?"Brock was on the verge of madness.How could he possibly entertain Austin?Having been arrogant at home, he became defiant when faced with Jacob's scolding."What? Do you want me to entertain Austin and pour wine for him? Why should I? When we were at Dominion, he worked under me!"With these words, the atmosphere in the entire room turned cold.Jacob's eyes widened, and his anger surged.At once, he slapped the table forcefully, making the plates clink."I dare you to say that again! I-I'm

Brock dared to taunt Austin initially because he had Jacob. He believed that Austin was nothing more than a newly risen lapdog.However, he never expected that the person behind Austin was powerful enough to intimidate even Jacob.If given a second chance, he would definitely not have provoked Austin.Just then, Austin got up and kicked Brock, knocking him over."I said I could make you cry in a day, and I did. From now on, if you dare to cause trouble again, I don't mind making my promises even more cruel."Austin wasn't weak by nature. Over the past three years, he had endured helping Brock take the blame each time to treat Dahlia. Brock took advantage of this, exploiting it to his advantage time and time again.After the acquisition of Dominion, Brock conspired against Austin by having a blind date with Nancy, which Austin saw as a blatant insult.After Austin retaliated against him, Brock played tricks on the west city slum redevelopment project again, leading to the scene t

Her transition between addressing Brock as Mr. Leach and Mr. Brock was seamless.Looking at Gwen, Brock unwillingly said, "Gwen, your birthday tonight ...""Oh, Mr. Leach, I have to work overtime tonight to improve my performance," Gwen replied without even looking back, leaving Brock feeling despondent.After she avoided Brock, she quickly found the middle-aged man who had reprimanded them earlier, Ean Spence."What's going on? Isn't Brock Mr. Sanders' brother-in-law?"Ean rolled his eyes."See those injuries on his face? Mr. Sanders beat him up. Seems like he offended a big shot. Our CEO received a call from Mr. Sanders last night to demote Brock."According to the CEO, the person in question is someone even Mr. Sanders dares not provoke. He's even thinking about divorcing his wife."There were no secrets in this world, let alone in the corporate world."Oh my goodness!"Gwen widened her eyes and covered her mouth. "So, you're saying Brock is doomed?"After receiving confi

At that moment, Brock, with a swollen face, returned to the sales center.Gwen's attitude had left him feeling disheartened, so he had gone outside for some fresh air.As he entered, he heard Gwen's complaints.Brock was stunned. Someone dared to cause trouble at the Heavensgate villa sales center?His gaze shifted toward Austin in front of Gwen.At once, Brock's body trembled, and his expression changed drastically.Austin had just dealt with Brock last night. Why was he here again today?"Mr. Spence, why don't you let security kick this troublemaker out of here?" Gwen had thrown caution to the wind.Already feeling upset, she had been serving this person who clearly couldn't afford to buy a house. This made her feel worse than dying.At her words, Brock's expression suddenly turned serious, and he quickly walked toward them."Gwen, what nonsense are you talking about?"Instantly, Gwen exploded, pointing at Brock and yelling, "Why do you care about what I say? You're not th

Dahlia was afraid Raquel would overthink. So, she explained, "You've done everything well. I like you a lot. Why would I fire you? "Oh, there's one area you don't seem to do well in. You don't seem to give yourself enough rest!"Raquel's eyes turned red. She sat beside the bed and began to cry. "Madam Emerson, you scared me. I thought you wanted to fire me. This job is really important to me."Dahlia smiled kindly. She looked at Raquel and patted her on the shoulders. Dahlia said softly, "You're a good kid. I won't fire you. Why don't you give my son a call?"I'll ask him to accompany me for the night while you return home and rest for the night."Raquel began to shake as she wiped away her tears. "Madam Emerson, Austin is very busy. He hired me to take care of you. How can I call him here while I return home to sleep?""Alright then. However, you should listen to me. Have a good rest at night. There's no need to wake up the second I move."As Dahlia spoke, her expression
