Lana forced a bitter smile. "It's not a big deal. Some people can betray you repeatedly without any remorse. We just need to be cautious around such people because they lack a moral compass."Upon hearing her words, Peter felt ashamed and lowered his head.Even children understand such basic moral principles. And yet, he was deceived, believing that a hint of conscience was still guiding Bo.If Lana hadn't anticipated it, what would they have done? Should they have closed the restaurant, or should they have given Bo a share of the business?The issue with the restaurant was resolved when Bo was sentenced to prison for fraud. Lana then took over his restaurant, turning it into another branch of their business.After the theft of the secret recipe, Lana's Vegan Restaurant regained popularity. It began to draw a lot of attention. As a result, the restaurant experienced a significant boost in sales, reaching a new peak.The restaurant now boasted six branches in Gilsbury, all consist

Was Lana trying to stir up trouble?Even the Traffic Light Trio had advised her, "Boss, don't go. You'll just end up getting scolded. That won't be a good look on you.""I've heard dealing with people in the entertainment industry can be tough. Maybe we should avoid any issues," one of them suggested.Laura cautiously approached Lana and whispered, "Lana, I have a feeling these people are up to no good. Should I grab a broom and shoo them away?"Lana offered them a faint smile. She reassured them, "Maybe things aren't as bad as you think. Just watch me."They watched as Lana approached the luxurious limousine parked at the restaurant's entrance.The presence of the limousine had already attracted a lot of attention. A group of young girls had gathered there. They were holding support signs with encouraging messages for John.Lana wasn't very familiar with fan culture. She simply didn't want her business to be disrupted.She politely knocked on the car window. John's assistant r

"Boss! Are you planning to push her to the brink of death?" Billy's voice trembled with anxiety as he emerged from David's house.Despite Stella's cruelty, Billy's enduring kindness toward her was astounding.Lana's eyes widened as she noticed the concern etched on Billy's face. "Of course! Just look at her attitude!" she exclaimed.Hearing her statement, Billy couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.He could hardly believe that his seemingly delicate and beautiful boss, who was also an excellent cook, could carry out something as ruthless as poisoning someone.Fortunately, Billy, Luke, and Kelvin hadn't provoked Lana back then. Who knew what kind of retaliation they might have faced?"You shouldn't worry about her. Didn't you mention your sick mother just now? We should visit her!" Lana urged, trying to divert his attention. Assuming she wanted a casual visit, Billy hesitated, his words stumbling out. "Boss, it's not necessary. My mother has been ill for years. I'm just wor

Seeing Lana's astonished expression, Liam felt confident he had made the right purchase.These pendants must conceal a secret. Why else would Lana be so eager to snatch them? She was normally so calm and composed. "It was a gift from someone else," Liam explained, his final act of stubbornness.Without a hint of doubt, Lana nodded and said, "Actually, now that I look at them, they don't seem that impressive."The difference between ancient and modern carving techniques was undeniably vast.What the ancients deemed exquisite might not be perceived the same way now.With a sigh of relief, Lana said, "Luckily, some fool bought them last time, or I would have faced a significant loss."The fool in question, Liam, remained silent.Despite her indifference, Liam was puzzled by Lana's earnest desire to snatch the pendants. So, he decided to test her."Do you want to take a closer look?" he asked, extending the pendants toward Lana.Without hesitation, Lana took the pendants, examin

Nicole did not look like she was joking at all. She held onto Lana's hand tightly, refusing to let go even when Lana's hand turned red.Billy stammered in shock, "Mom, let go. She's not Aunt Sasha. Aunt Sasha passed away many years ago."Lana explained patiently as she told Billy to step aside. "Auntie, please take a closer look. I'm not the person you mentioned. I'm Lana!"Her voice was calm and gentle with a soothing tone. Nicole quickly calmed down."I'm really sorry!" Tears streamed down Nicole's face. "For a second there, I really thought you were my younger sister. You look so much like her.""Please don't take it to heart, Boss. This is the first time I've seen my mom like this. She's not usually like this," Billy explained. He was worried that Lana might mistake his mother for being mentally ill."Don't worry, Billy. I understand," Lana replied.After comforting Nicole, Lana called for the doctors and nurses to conduct a thorough examination.Billy accompanied Nicole
