Mr. Miller stood next to the car with his back straight, raising his hand calmly to acknowledge the crowd's greetings.Reginald took the chance to walk up to him in excitement, fawning over Mr. Miller as he extended his hand and said, "Hello, Mr. Miller. Welcome to the Stone Group. It's our great honor that you're checking out our company. We just received the news, so we didn't prepare in advance to welcome you. Please forgive us for that."The masked Liam looked at Reginald without any expression. His attitude was completely different from how he usually treated Reginald. He did not intend to shake Reginald's hand at all.Seeing that, his assistant immediately shook Reginald's hand and explained with a smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Stone. Mr. Miller is not used to shaking hands with strangers."Reginald did not expect that Mr. Miller would be so rude, but it was fine since the assistant stepped up to save him from the embarrassment. However, Reginald did not get angry. He thought it was

Reginald let out a chuckle upon hearing Liam's words. He then pretended to thank Liam as if he cared about Celena very much.Liam did not wish to listen to Reginald's nonsense anymore, so he turned around and headed for the elevator.Soon, everyone arrived at the meeting room. Liam went straight for the center seat in the room and sat down calmly as everyone watched.That seat was supposed to be Reginald's as he was the president of the company. However, not only did the crowd have no objection that Liam was sitting on it, but they were fawning over him.If Liam were to appear in the room as himself, he would not even have the right to take the most ordinary seat, much less Reginald's seat. As long as Liam appeared at the Stone Group, he definitely would be getting criticized and insulted.That was because the Stones thought Liam was just a man who married into their family and a useless person who relied on his wife financially. He did not have the right to show up at the Stone G

Liam shook his head and said with a smile, "Reginald, don't get ahead of yourself. I can work with you, but I have a few terms. I'm not sure if you're able to accept."Reginald looked as if he knew what Mr. Miller meant when he said he had some terms to add. Reginald thought Mr. Miller was just like Yankel and took a fancy to someone.Without hesitation, he said, "I understand, Mr. Miller. Please name your terms. We'll be able to accept them no matter what."Yafe found the chance to chime in, so he echoed in excitement, "Please go ahead, Mr. Miller. Even if you have ten or even a hundred terms, we'll agree to all of them."The other members of the Stone family and the executives of the company nodded in excitement as well. Yafe's words were exactly what they had in mind.As long as they could form a connection with Mr. Miller and work with him, the Stone family's position and reputation in Drunham City would rise to another level.Mr. Miller was the boss who was backing up Kolten

Well, they were only half-correct. Celena was indeed the reason for Yankel's arrest, but unbeknownst to them, the culprit behind Yankel's capture was not Mr. Miller at all, but Liam himself!Cheryl was gritting her teeth so hard that she felt as though she would bite through her jaw at any moment. Her beautifully made-up features were now twisted in an envious scowl, and her brows were tightly furrowed in disapproval. She glared at Celena, her eyes ablaze with white-hot rage. When she saw how shocked Celena looked, she wanted nothing more than to slap the disbelief off her face.What was so good about Celena anyway? Cheryl was confident that she was better than Celena in everything—her looks, her figure, her fashion sense, and the list went on. Why would Mr. Miller fall for Celena instead of her?Celena took in a deep breath then stood up rather timidly, staring across the room at Mr. Miller. When their gazes met, she once again saw the familiarity in his eyes, the soft, tender look

The air seemed to turn cold for a moment, and suddenly, there came the sound of stifled laughter from amongst the crowd. Cheryl's entire face was as red as a beetroot. She shot Liam a deathly glare, then picked up her shoe rather haphazardly and hobbled out of the room. When she brushed past Celena, she shot her a cold look before finally disappearing out the door.Who would have thought Cheryl would end up in such a predicament?The rest of the Stones all knew of Cheryl's intentions. It was evident in the look of awe she kept casting Mr. Miller, but who would have thought this billionaire would turn out to be such a prude?As soon as Cheryl left, Yafe turned to Liam and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry about that, Mr. Miller. This is all my fault. I should've educated my daughter better. I can assure you that I will not allow something like this to happen again!"Liam glanced at him coldly. "Mr. Stone, I sincerely hope you can keep a closer eye on your daughter. If something l
