Lilly sat there alone on the dirty pavement. It was a heart wrenching sight.

However, no cause is without a reason. Perhaps, she was responsible for putting herself in this pitiful

state.

She stood up defiantly and was getting ready to chase after the men. Jacob appeared from the sides

and gave her a cold stare.

At that instant, the air reverberated and a sudden surge of wind went straight toward Lily’s eyes. The

color of her face was completely drained off. Her pupil shrunk, and her mind turned blank afterward.

When Lily came back to her senses, she was shocked to find herself alone.

Alas, she opened her mouth to lament her loss. “Sigh… He’s going to earn a million per year….”

Jacob was back at Little Professor kindergarten by noon. He was watching his daughter from outside

the canteen. At the time, she was having lunch. Heidi had finished her food obediently and left the

canteen in high spirits.

As time passed, the city of Paramount was illuminated once again.

In the Eastern district, on Duchess Lane, thick masses of trees and floras surrounded the street. It was

one of the areas with the highest green coverage in all of Paramount. There was building tucked deep

within the woods, at the end of a tortuous path.

Seated among the towering cypress trees, the building belonged to one of the respected families in

Paramount — The Fest. One of the rooms was an antiquated study room. The smell of incense

lingered inside the room.

Creak.

It was the sound of a door opening. Entering the room was Ryan from the main family and Simon from

the sister family.

Ryan, who was first to enter the study room, saw Kennedy sitting on the grand chair. He straightened

his arms and greeted him with respect. “Grandpa.”

Simon’s eyes were a little weary. He shot Ryan a dissatisfied look before taking a step forward, politely

addressing the man in the room. “Grandpa.”

Kennedy was slowly twirling the white jade ring on his thumb. He examined both his grandchildren in

silence. His attention was drawn to the dark circles on his second grandson. He twitched his brow

slightly. “Simon, I know you have the vigor of a young man, but you should learn to control your

desires.”

Ryan, who was standing attentively beside him, couldn’t resist a smug smile. He enjoyed gloating at his

cousin.

“Understood, Grandpa.” Simon lowered his head. His face was flushing red.

After his little warning with Simon, Kennedy continued in a straight face, “I got wind that some of our

business partners have stopped working with us.”

Ever since his sixty-fifth birthday, Kennedy started taking a back seat on business related matters. He

had high expectations for the two standing before him. The third generations — Ryan and Simon were

supposed to be the promised stars of tomorrow.

“Grandpa.” Ryan replied, “I have news as well. Not only our business partners, but some of our

suppliers have also terminated their contracts with us this afternoon. They would rather pay the penalty

than to provide us with the goods.”

Next to him, Simon was blinking his eyes in confusion.

He was with Alvina the whole day. Naturally, he wasn’t aware of any major events that was happening

within the family.

“This can’t be a coincidence.” Kennedy’s eyes grew a little colder. “Simon, tell me how you feel about

this.”

Simon was a little startled. He quickly responded with a nod. “Yes, Grandpa. Firstly, we have partners

who’re willing to stomach the loss just so that they could part way with us. Then, we have suppliers

who would rather choose payment over service. Someone must be orchestrating this behind the

scenes!”

Ryan pouted his lips.

Rubbish deduction. It’s obvious that someone is behind all this! Otherwise, given Fest family’s position

in Paramount, no one would dare offend us! Even more so if it meant forfeiting their own profits.

Lilly sat there alone on the dirty pavement. It was a heart wrenching sight.
