"She’s just stating the facts. We're in this mess because of her. She blatantly disregards business rules and has no integrity whatsoever. If people like her stick around in this market, we might as well quit.”"We're all barely making ends meet, trying to solidify our market share. Especially now, we should stick together to maintain a harmonious market order. People like her aren't here for real business.""Exactly, she's just disgraceful!""Look at her, trying to dominate here, rallying these thugs. What's her game?"The crowd grew more infuriated, shouting louder.I gave a cold look at Andrea. She was visibly flustered across from me, and I asked, "Is this what you call malicious competition?"Andrea immediately pointed at the surrounding crowd and shouted, "Shut up, all of you!"Then she turned to me, pointing, "Chloe, who do you think you are? You’re just a cheap woman relying on a man's authority. How dare you talk back to me?"As she ranted, she shouted at the men aroun

I smiled knowingly at Eleanor. I knew Aidan very well. He had been in this market the longest. Back when I was just starting out in business, he was already making a name for himself, running the largest store here.Aidan was protective, loyal, and had a good reputation, making him more suitable and influential than Eleanor to lead this matter.Kicking them out wasn't a solution without concrete evidence and involving contract issues. We needed to uncover the facts and have everyone join forces in filing complaints.After everyone dispersed, Eleanor pulled me back to the small office in our store.She looked at me and said, "Chloe, thanks for your timely arrival, today wasn’t a disaster. While I can repair the store if it's damaged, I can't handle her constant trouble. Since they moved into the market, it's been one problem after another."I can't directly approach the market management. After all, this market belongs to ATL Empire. If Tanum's store gets into trouble, it reflects

I looked at Eleanor and smiled as I said to Aidan, "Then please take care of each other. I'm busy and can't always come here, so I'll leave Eleanor to you all. We old friends must get along well.""Hey. Don't say that. She not only focuses on your own sales but also brings us a lot of business. It’s mutually beneficial, so we all can't just watch her being bullied. “That woman is simply a troublemaker. With our joint effort this time, we'll drive her out. You can rest assured," Aidan said enthusiastically, showing that Eleanor had a good reputation in the market."In that case, I'll be relieved. I have other matters to attend to, so you guys continue your discussion." With that, I pushed Eleanor lightly. "Don't send me off, and just get back to work."Eleanor smiled at me and Carol as we left, then turned back to attend to her duties.As I stepped out of the store, I couldn't help but think that perhaps Eleanor would manage this largest building materials market in Torado in the

My heart felt content as I saw the relieved smiles on the faces of the Reese family members."Yeah. I have him doing quality inspection now, and he's doing a great job. Actually, it's a tough job," I said truthfully. I looked at the little one. "He can’t even spend time with little Charlie every day.”Carol chimed in. "I went to Bourdamun with Mr. Ryan a few days ago. We saw him, he's doing well. He knows the quality standards inside and out.""Yeah. He's changed. He’s really different now. He wouldn't even speak before, but now, he's so respectful to us old folks. It's all thanks to you, Mrs. Chloe." Donovan sighed."Don't say that. You don't know the love of a parent until you have a child, right? Besides, he wasn't really bad. He was just a bit rebellious, which led him astray. “It's a good thing he's back on track. After all, he has a son now." I looked at the little one calling me mommy with his face upturned toward me. "He's a lucky star. Look at how cheerful he is.""I us

Atlas had once mentioned to me that he was the most outstanding man among the younger generation of the Avila family and wielded considerable military and political power in Yare. That, coupled with his relationship with Trinity, only fueled my curiosity further.Before long, the doorbell chimed, and when I glanced outside, I saw that Tristan had already escorted them to the door.Atlas approached with confident strides and swung open the door, welcoming Trinity inside first.My gaze remained fixed on the towering figure beside her.He was tall and robust, seemingly even stronger than Atlas. His tanned skin exuded a masculine allure.His features were strikingly handsome, with a square face typical of Yare's men. Thick eyebrows framed his intense, deep-set eyes, and his straight nose and broad mouth gave off a rugged charm.Trinity, who usually had a cold and fierce demeanor, appeared delicate and charming standing beside him, completely devoid of her usual sharpness.No wonder
