"Who do you think you're talking to?" Taylor gritted out.Everyone in the Campbell family wanted to inherit and lead the family.However, Walter suddenly found his bastard son and tried to bring him back into the family. Such an action was like a slap to their faces.How could the rest of the family willingly give the position of family head to a bastard?Austin smiled in contempt. "Aldus, it's time to go home."Was he being ignored?Taylor's anger flared up, and his eyes looked like he could murder someone.However, Taylor knew he could not harm Austin with Aldus here.Walter had gifted his personal bodyguard to a bastard like him. It proved that Walter held him in high regard."You'll understand the difference between an elite and a bastard very soon." Taylor's sarcastic and cold voice sounded.When they got home, Austin immediately laid on the sofa."Thank you for your help just now."Aldus shook his head. "I'm just doing my job."Austin smiled and did not comment on it

They went to the Venus Restaurant.Austin's first time having Ashoden cuisine was in Venus Restaurant. Back then, Cecily was the one who had treated him to the meal.During their four years in university, Austin, Nancy, Cecily, and a few of their other friends would often go there to eat.Three years ago, Austin and Nancy had their farewell dinner with Cecily here before she went abroad.The restaurant was special to them."Hey, Workaholic? I didn't think you would still remember this place."Cecily tried to tidy her wet hair as she looked at the restaurant meaningfully."How could I forget?"Austin smiled bitterly.Cecily frowned. "But aren't you being too stingy? "You're the vice president of a property development company now. I just came back from being abroad. How can you bring me here?"Although she had been abroad for the past three years, she had always kept close tabs on Austin and Nancy.Otherwise, she would not have sent Austin a message questioning him when he

Cecily left the hotel early in the morning. She headed over to her father's supply company to take over the business.The small supply company was nothing compared to her father's family business.The company was her father's first company. He wanted to keep it as a reminder for nostalgic purposes. He would not have chosen to further expand the company if that weren't the case.Austin was working for Dominion Properties. She wanted to involve herself in the real estate industry. That way, she would be able to help Austin.After visiting his mother, Austin headed over to the company.Matt came into his office hurriedly with a stack of documents."Austin, there's a serious matter here that needs your input."Matt put down his documents and said, "Due to the slum renovation being too big of a project, we wanted to find the best supply company to supply us with materials."However, due to Dominion's qualifications, the supply company has been hesitant to work with us."Austin lo

Around lunchtime, Austin was prepared to leave the company.He was about to head to Yandell Corp to talk about the contract.Suddenly, Matt rushed into his office."Austin, something's happened!"Austin frowned and took a sip of his drink. "What happened?""The president of Yandell Corp is here," Matt said.Austin immediately spat out the water in his mouth. He was dumbfounded.No wonder Matt looked so anxious.Yandell Corp was the best supplier of building materials in the city. They had long-term collaborations with the top ten property development companies.Dominion was like a small fly in Yandell's eyes. Although they were working on the west city slum redevelopment project, they should be the ones to head over to Yandell for negotiations."Let me take a look."Austin got up and followed Matt.In Dominion's lounge, Dave was frowning as he looked at the contract in his hand.Cecily had mentioned mutual benefits and dismissed his big plan.Due to the big price increm

After hesitating for a moment, Austin suppressed the urge to tell Cecily.He glanced at Cecily, who was focused on the road, and smiled, "Cecily, I will give you a surprise in a while."Cecily was his friend, and they should be honest with each other about many things.Austin didn't want Cecily to feel even a hint of sympathy toward him because of what he experienced in the past month."A surprise?" Cecily raised an eyebrow, but she didn't inquire further.Instead, she nodded and smiled. "Sure, I'm looking forward to it."The car entered the parking lot of Legacy Hospital.After getting out of the car, Cecily asked Austin to help her carry her stuff.When Austin opened the trunk, he was stunned.The entire trunk was filled to the brim with baskets of fruits and supplements."This is my first time visiting Madam Emerson, so I can't be impolite. I randomly bought some stuff, but I'm not sure if Madam Emerson will like them," Cecily said with a smile.Austin felt hurt for a sec
