Due to that incident six years ago, Winifred had become a frequent target for scorn. It was an inevitable truth that Winifred now no longer had any status within the Zea family. Even an indirect family member could ridicule her. Now that Iris had nabbed a successful man like Travis, she had become the most valuable person in the Zea family. Winifred could never win against her. And so, this matter was settled just like that. Winifred ended up being given the impossible task of negotiating this project with the Smith Group. Iris had even forced Winifred to pledge that if the deal were not successful, Winifred would be chased out of the Zea Group. The next day, inside the private room of a classy restaurant, Liam Smith swirled the red wine glass in his hand. He had already been waiting for quite some time. Although he was dressed in branded clothes, none of it could conceal his hideous appearance. The man had the face of a rat. When Liam was young, he had contracted chickenpox, s

Travis was thinking, Right your ass! You dumb woman. Do you really think our Century Herb Pharmaceutical is invincible? If it weren’t for the Zea family’s land in the South Hill Plains, I really want to kick this foolish woman hard! “Yeah, my dad has already agreed to it. He says he has a good relationship with Zachery Smith, so he’ll talk to him.” The Zea family members immediately broke into smiles. Jorge, too, let out a sigh of relief. “Travis, sorry for troubling your family with this. When your dad has time, let’s meet up. I want to thank him personally.” Travis nodded, feeling a little guilty. “Alright, Grandpa.” Just then, outside of the Zea Group building, thunder was rumbling through the skies, and soon, heavy rain fell. The rainwater drenched Winifred’s body as she walked alone in the heavy rain, feeling lonely, aggrieved, and helpless. Even her tears disappointed her as they fell from her eyes and was swallowed by the rain immediately after. With a slip of her foot,

Zachery stood up. The trace of grief disappeared from his face in an instant, and his expression fell dark. “This swine almost destroyed the Smith family. He can stay in bed for the rest of his life and stop causing me trouble.” Breaking his son’s limbs with his own hands definitely made Zachery’s heart ache. However, his fear of the consequences was stronger. Drake Tucker was nothing but a fart in Tyr’s eyes, and his son had dared to touch this man’s wife. If he had hesitated even for a moment just now, the entire Smith family might have been ruined. A man like him had four sons, two daughters, and countless illegitimate children outside his home. So, even if Liam was disabled, it would not be a big deal to him. “Brother Tucker, is there still a way to turn this around?” Drake lit a cigar and took a long draw. “That would depend on how you take care of things.” At that moment, the people at the Zea family mansion had sat, waiting, for half a day, but there was still no word fr

Zachery found it baffling. It was not the first time he had heard Iris mention Century Herb Pharmaceuticals. What exactly was that? Travis let out a dry cough before standing tall, looking confident. “Hello, President Smith. I’m Travis Jensen, and Forest Jensen is my father. I think my father has already given you a call about this. I’m very glad that you can do this favor for my father, so in this case, you can take the contract out for us to sign it. When I get back, I’ll definitely put in a few good words to my father for you.” Zachery almost laughed at how amusing this idiot was. “Forest Jensen? Who is he?” “My dad!” “And you are?” “He’s Travis Jensen,” Iris quickly explained. “President Smith, didn’t you forgive our Zea family out of respect for Travis’s family business?” “Beat it!” Zachery’s sudden roar startled Travis and Iris. “Who does your father think he is, and who cares about the Jensen family’s Century Herb Pharmaceuticals? Why the hell do I have to do him a

In the evening, the sunset painted the sky red from the horizon. Tyr was in the kitchen preparing dinner while Winifred was helping Blair with her homework. Just then, the door of the living room was opened. A middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman carrying two bags walked in. “Dad, Mom, why have you come back?” Winifred immediately hurried over to the entrance. These two people were Winifred’s parents; in other words, Tyr’s father- and mother-in-law! Winifred’s father was called Jacob Zea. He was Jorge Zea’s third son. He used to have a position in the Zea Group, but after Winifred’s incident six years ago, his brothers had taken the opportunity to accuse him and robbed him of all his authority within the Zea Group. After that, he became unemployed. Winifred’s mother was called Helen Cole. She was a tough character. When Helen entered the room, her expression was dark as she reproached, “If we don’t come back, you might have flown away by now. Where’s that beggar? Get him
