On this day, the Anderson Group celebrated its 80th anniversary with a grand event at the most luxurious hotel in Elaris.
Between the coming and going of guests, it was clear that only the elite were present.
On the highway, a Land Rover cruised steadily. Atlas leaned his long body back against the seat, his eyes closed, resting, but his mind was filled with the image of Naomi.
Naomi claimed that she hadn’t forgiven himself yet, which was why she didn’t come along this time.
Instead, she would arrive later as the CEO of M&N Entertainment, accompanied by Paulina.
Naomi’s company had already shown promising results. As for the origins of the name, there’s a story to it, linked to her last encounter at the bar with Benny.
Benny, upon hearing that Naomi was starting an entertainment company, was immediately intrigued.
"Naomi, just sign me up for your company!"
Naomi couldn’t help twitching her lips
Standing beside Naomi, Atlas glanced at Kalea with impatience.On the other hand, Kalea's face immediately showed an expression of admiration as soon as Atlas arrived, which only strengthened Naomi's suspicions.A wave of disgust rose in her heart. She and the Rhodes must have some deep grudge from a past life. One Kael wasn’t enough, now she had to deal with Kalea as well.Thinking of this, she secretly pinched the waist of the man beside her. Though it wasn’t a hard pinch, she still felt Atlas stiffen in response.Since Atlas appeared, Kalea's eyes seemed incapable of focusing on anyone else.“Mr. Knox, it’s been a long time. We’ve met before, you should remember, right?”Saying this, she flicked her long, wavy hair, causing Naomi to twitch her mouth. She remembered that Teddy had once tried to find a suitable match for Kalea, but she had rejected them all. It turned out she had someone in mind—jus

Jax, still in the hospital, was obviously stunned, a chilling aura radiating from him. Even the nurse beside him moved more quietly. During his hospitalization, his temper had been so bad that everyone said it was because of his leg injury. After the amputation, his temper had gotten worse."Kael, what exactly are you trying to do?"What exactly was he trying to do?Kael asked himself this in his mind, recalling what Benny had just said. Benny had said he wasn't worthy of Naomi. How could that be possible? Back in high school, he and Naomi had been together, and the girls who admired him were always jealous, even when he and Naomi were just friends.So even after they broke up, Naomi could never truly see him as just a stand-in — no matter what she claimed. And even if no one said it out loud, he could always feel the pity in their eyes."Jax, I can't just let Naomi easily be with Atlas. They’ve humiliated me in front of everyone, and t
Everyone in the room couldn't help but suppress a smile or roll their eyes.Naomi rubbed her temples, clearly exasperated. “Benny, can you not for just one minute?”Just as Alistair opened his mouth to chime in, Naomi cut him off with a glare. “You — zip it too!”Melvin looked around, especially at Bertrand, who was present. This seemed like the perfect opportunity to talk business, so his eyes flicked as he said, "Since everyone knows each other, why don’t we go to the private room to talk?"Atlas and Bertrand exchanged glances. The latter gave a slight nod. "Sure!""No problem!"Melvin gave a slight twitch of his lips, realizing that the older generation didn't speak much.The group moved to Melvin’s private room, which was oddly quiet. In the end, it was Melvin who took the initiative to lighten the mood."Hey, Alistair, how did you get to know Young Master Dawson?"This quest
Alistair instantly felt wronged. Even though he didn’t want to fake cry, this time he was on the verge of real tears: "Bro, I’m being bullied!"The other side paused for almost a minute before finally replying: "Lost at Truth or Dare?"Alistair: “...”Before he could say anything, the voice of Melvin came through: "Alistair, where are you?""Brother Melvin, I’m in the corridor. I’ve been bullied! Hurry and call my brother out!" Alistair quickly hung up the phone, fearing that they might refuse to help.So, the two boys stared at each other, neither willing to back down. It was almost like sparks flying."Hmph!""Hmph!"Gord sighed.The two kept staring each other down until the sound of footsteps approached. Benny's eyes lit up first: "Bro, I’m here!"Alistair immediately felt like a deflated balloon. Ugh, why hasn’t my brother come yet? Is he really going to abandon
Kael had always looked down on Benny, thinking he was just another spoiled rich kid who did nothing but eat and loaf around. But at the same time, there was always a faint trace of envy in his heart.“Heh, cheating? Do you even know where Naomi is now? Probably in Atlas’s arms! She was probably thinking of him on our wedding day! If anyone cheated, it was her!”For some reason, standing in front of Benny, Kael just couldn’t bring himself to say the words he had rehearsed to win Naomi back. Admitting he was wrong to someone he always considered beneath him—it was just too hard.Hearing that, Benny snapped. He ran up and kicked Kael hard, knocking him to the floor.“You bastard! You promised me you’d take care of her! You’re nothing but a backstabbing liar!”He didn’t stop—kept kicking until Kael was coughing up blood.Holding his chest, Kael stumbled to his feet, his expression
