Everyone realized that the Everetts were no longer what they used to be. They had climbed to a higher status. Many guests tried to strengthen their ties with the Everetts.

Gideon and James mingled with the crowd, busily greeting everyone.

"Mr. Gideon, may I have a word?" Ethan Lynch, an executive in a government-owned company who had previously delayed their collaboration, approached Gideon with a glass of wine in band.

"Mr. Lynch." Gideon clinked glasses with him and took a sip before saying, "What do you want to discuss? After what had just happened, many of those present discreetly inquired about the relationship between the Everetts and Bernard. They were hoping to collaborate with the latter as well. Gideon understood Ethan's intentions perfectly.

Ethan realized that Gideon was playing dumb. He had belleved Queenie's words previously and stopped the collaboration with Gideon. His superiors wanted him to approach Gideon for another discussion So, he could only smile and say, "I've reviewed the new contract you sent over. When can we find the tto sign it?" Gideon pretended to ponder.

Seeing this, Ethan added, "I've managed to secure an additional 5% profit for you from my superiors." Ethan's superiors initiated this extra profit to secure the collaboration with the Everetts. Acknowledging the generous offer, Gideon decided to accept it. "Since you are so sincere, Mr. Lynch, let's find sttomorrow to sign the contract." After chatting for a bit more, Gideon excused himself to find Bernard. His presence had significantly contributed to the success of the banquet. Gideon knew Bernard was there because of Hera. Nevertheless, he felt the need to thank him personally.

However, after looking through the entire hall, he couldn't find Bernard or Hera, so he asked his assistant. "Mr. Gideon, Mr. Killian and Ms. Hera left about half an hour ago." If they left 30 minutes ago, it meant that they left just as the banquet was starting Gideon was at a loss for words, He knew Bernard had shown up because of Hera and had done them a huge favor, but felt that his actions crossed a line. Each time, he would just appear and take Heranway.

At that moment, he received a message on his phone.

He glanced at it and saw that it was from an unknown number "Are e you satisfied with the opening act of the banquet?" Gideon wondered who it was when another message cthrough "My brother-in-law," He immediately knew who it was from.

Meanwhile, at the police station, Hera and Bernard were watching om Queenie's police interrogation from the surveillance room.

After two hours, the news of Zyler's accident crushed Queenie's spirit making the interrogation much smoother than before. She confessed to almost everything. The cause of Isabella and her mom's death was almost the sas Hera had suspected.
