"What? Dad, how can you?" Shocked, Hugo gaped at Josiah in disbelief. He did not expect his father to side with Jayden and doubt him. This completely caught him off guard, but before he could process the situation, Josiah's voice rose once again. "Father, Jayden wants evidence, and it's simple. The southern region isn't that far away from here. We just need to send a few men to the southern region to look into this company's background. That way, we'll know if Hugo is telling the truth right away!" Josiah said calmly. "Yeah. Dad's right! Grandpa, if you don't believe what I said, you can send someone to the southern region to investigate. That way, you will know for sure!" Hugo beamed, realizing that his father was backing him up indirectly. "Josiah's right! Instead of debating here, we might as well just send someone over to conduct a detailed investigation on Cynthion Group! That's the safest option!" ... The elders nodded and agreed with Josiah's suggestion. After all,

"What? Did you just say that there will be spiritual herbs selling in the banquet? Really?" Leon was shocked and could not believe what he just heard. Spiritual herbs were extremely rare, regardless of their grades. To his bewilderment, he was told that spiritual herbs would be sold at the banquet, and it caught him by surprise. For a moment, he could not tell if Renee was telling the truth. "Of course! What's wrong? Finally interested in the banquet, huh?" Renee smiled. She learned from Hugo that Cynthion Group needed a tremendous supply of precious herbs to produce alchemical pills. Assuming that the herbs sold at the banquet might be of use to Leon, she informed him about it to see if he would like to participate. "Yeah, I'm interested. Miss Morrison, where will this banquet be held and how do I get in?" Leon asked, his interest piqued as he was desperate to see what kind of spiritual herbs would be sold. If there was a spiritual herb, that would be ideal. "The banquet

"I-" Renee was utterly stunned. Both she and Leon indeed just reserved a hotel room, but she was only doing so to help Leon settle down, so what Ariella imagined was far from the truth. "Ariella, you're mistaken. Hugh here is my family's business partner and I'm here to help him settle down." Renee snapped out of it and explained, only to realize that her words were not helping. "It's fine, Renee. You don't have to explain. It's normal to have a boyfriend at your age, so you don't have to lie. Besides, we are all adults and intimacy is normal. I can understand," Ariella said with a smile, clearly not believing what Renee said. "She knew that the Morrisons were the most powerful family in the western region and Renee held a high status as the eldest unwed daughter of the family. If Leon was truly a business partner, Renee would never tend to his needs given how proud she was. It was unrealistic to consider that. In all of the western region, no one in any of the powerful f

"I'm the vice president of Cynthion Group in the southern region." Leon was not Renee's boyfriend and did not know what Joshua and Ariella were thinking. Hence, he did not think much of it and told the 'truth'. "Vice president of Cynthion Group? What is that?" Both Joshua and Ariella snapped out of it and exchanged confused glances. Neither of them heard about this budding enterprise and they had no clue as to what the company was about. Most importantly, they assumed Leon was at least an extremely wealthy and powerful figure if he was not from any powerful family. To their bewilderment, he was merely a vice president of a small business in the southern region. This meant that he was miles away from being Renee's equal and none of them could understand why Renee fell for such a man. "It's no wonder!" Realization dawned on Ariella. She was confused at first as to why Renee refused to acknowledge that Leon was her boyfriend. However, with such a difference between their s

"Renee, speaking of the pharmaceutical industry, reminds me of something! Jaxon Feaks is holding a bouquet tonight to auction rare herbs! Joshua and I plan on going. Would you like to join us?" Ariella asked, swiftly changing the subject. "Sure! That's where Hugh and I plan on heading anyway! Let's all go together!" Renee nodded. She was slightly appalled by Joshua for what he said about Leon, but that did not affect her friendship with Ariella. Moreover, Leon wanted to participate in the bouquet and she promised to go with him, so there was no reason for her to reject Ariella's proposal. After dinner, the four drove out of the hotel and to the venue for the bouquet. ... In a luxurious mansion on the outskirts. This mansion belonged to Jaxon Feaks. It was spread over a great area with wonderful scenery. Surrounded by splendid lights, it looked majestic. At the gate, two guards stood on each side to welcome guests who arrived. When Leon, Renee, and the others arrived, lu
