“Yes, Mr. Teddy!”

After ending the call, Teddy instantly dialed another number.

On the other end, Levi answered promptly, “Mr. Teddy, what are your orders?”

“We can’t let the Wolf Warrior return and operate as he pleases. Let’s burn

down his territory first! Without a base, he’ll be like a wandering spirit, unable

to pose a threat to our forthcoming great plan!”

After giving his orders, Teddy hung up the phone, his expression turning

somewhat menacing.

“Teddy, are you still awake?”

His demeanor shifted instantly when he heard the concerned voice. With a

cheerful smile, he called out, “Catherine I’m coming!”

Elsewhere in Yeringham, in the morning, Alessandra and Tia arrived at the

Quillen residence in a Rolls–Royce. Alessandra had scheduled a meeting with

Terence to discuss some important matters.

Since Terence took over as the Chairman of Nuthana Chamber of

Commerce, the Quillen family had truly become the undisputed ruler of

Nuthana. This old fox had returned to the fray, elevating all four of his

daughters to key roles within the Chamber of Commerce and rapidly

promoting his subordinates. In just over a month, the Quillen family had

soared to the peak of power in Nuthana.

Even the commercial hub of Nuthana was beginning to shift from Aberdeen

to Yeringham. At this pace, it seemed inevitable that the provincial capital

would eventually follow suit.

When Tia helped Alessandra out of the car, she was taken aback to find that the Quillen residence was packed with prominent figures, even from the parking lot! They were all dressed in sharp formal wear, projecting an aura of authority and sophistication. Seeing such a sight, both of them felt a bit

overwhelmed as one was from the rural area while the other had been a

this before.

They felt like ducks among swans, afraid of being looked down upon. Even

though their attire had changed significantly, it still fell far short when

compared to the sophistication of those around them.

“Ms. Franks?” Suddenly, a middle–aged man dressed in a high–end suit and

polished leather shoes called out to Tia.

“Who are you?” Tia asked instinctively, her expression a bit fearful. She was

like someone from a small town meeting a city scion!

The middle–aged man eagerly introduced himself. “Ms. Franks, you must

have forgotten me! I’m the father of Kevin Davis, the CEO of Five Elements

Pharma!”

“Oh, of course! Mr. Davis!”

Tía suddenly remembered–back in kindergarten, Kevin was the only child

who was dropped off in a sleek, high–end Porsche Panamera. She recalled

how the teachers couldn’t help but gossip about Kevin’s father at that time!

Who would have thought I’d run into him here today?

Even more surprising was that he was addressing her with such respect. “Ms.

Franks, is this your mother–in–law?”

My mother–in–law!

She was taken aback by the unexpected attention but nodded in

acknowledgment. Before she knew it, the crowd erupted!

Before Kevin’s father could even begin to flatter Alessandra, the other

distinguished guests around them immediately started showering the older

woman with compliments!

“Oh, so you’re Mr. Lowe’s mother? What an honor to meet you!”

“I’m Steve Nelson, Vice President of Deerfield Holdings. Just call me Steve!”

“I am James Mitchell, the CEO of Vava Group. I’d like to offer you 1.5 million as

a gesture of goodwill, hoping to be friends with you. In the future, I’ll be at your

service-”

The flattery continued…

These prominent figures were outdoing each other with extravagant flattery

and deference, leaving both Tia and Alessandra quite stunned! Especially Tia,

who had never imagined in her wildest dreams that she would find herself in

such a position. What had she done to deserve this?

Nothing at all–I had merely married the straightforward Ryder!

“What are you all doing? Don’t make a commotion in the Quillen residence

like this, or I’ll have you all thrown out. Got it?”

Fortunately, at that moment, a distinguished woman emerged. She was

accompanied by the residence’s head of security, Logan Collins, and two

squads of formidable professional bodyguards.

They swiftly dispersed the crowd and ‘rescued‘ the startled Alessandra and

“Oh, it’s Ms. Lenoir!” Seeing Felicity, Alessandra immediately approached with

warmth and enthusiasm.

The previously aloof Felicity was now much friendlier and welcoming. She

gently took Alessandra’s arm and said, “Ms. Alessandra, don’t worry about

these people. Just let them wait. They’re all here to make connections!”

She led Alessandra and Tia into the mansion.

Once inside, Tia felt a significant sense of peace and quiet.
