Summer wasn't interested in answering his question. With a serious expression, she said, "Mr. Ritter, this is my private matter. It's none of your business. "Although I don't know what changes have occurred in Knight Corporation, since you are now in charge of the company, I want to talk to you about the Knight Garden project.""Do you think I would talk to you?" Keith's eyes were sharp as he glared at Summer, like a snake eyeing its prey.Summer hadn't thought that he would talk to her either. The relationship between the Quigleys and Ritters was delicate, and the relationship between Keith and James was even more delicate.However, the Knight Garden project was Charter Corporation's largest order. The land had already been secured from the government, and the foundation had been laid. If she just gave up like this, Charter Corporation would suffer huge losses.Even if he didn't want to talk, Summer stubbornly continued, "Mr. Ritter, I hope you will be more responsible. Althou

Summer had no idea how to answer Keith's question, or rather, she didn't want to answer it at all.However, seeing Keith's piercing gaze, Summer knew that he was waiting for her response. So, she casually replied, "I don't know if he's a bad person, and I don't think he's a bad person.""Oh, then you're wrong. It seems that your relationship with James isn't progressing well. I'm telling you, he's just as bad as me."Keith's expression darkened, and his eyes emitted a chilling light. He continued, "I killed my brother, and James trampled on countless people's bodies to get to where he is now."His words carried a lot of information, and Summer couldn't wrap her mind around it for a moment.What did Keith mean by saying that he killed his brother? And that James climbed to his position by trampling on countless people's bodies?Summer thought that Keith was just being mysterious, probably just to tease her. She nodded and said casually, "I see. Then, James really is bad."Keith c

Summer finally left after venting her frustrations. She had been thoroughly tested by Keith, and her heart was seething with anger. How could she leave without saying a few harsh words?As she reached the entrance of Knight Tower, she found Lexi, Gerald, and the others waiting for her. Additionally, several department managers had also gathered there. "How was it, Ms. Charter? Did the negotiation go well?"Summer didn't know how to answer that question. The people in the company were highly concerned about this project. If she told them that the negotiation had failed, everyone would be devastated, and morale would drop.But hiding the outcome would be lying to them, and Summer couldn't do that."I'm sorry, the negotiation failed. The other party decided to terminate our cooperation," Summer said, watching everyone sigh in disappointment. After all, they had spent nearly a year working hard to prepare for this project, only to see no results. Of course, they were disappointed

Summer wanted him to investigate all the suspicious individuals in the Quigley residence, but James said, "There's no need for that anymore. Since we've already moved out, I don't think Keith will continue to monitor the Quigley residence. After all, he's only interested in me."Keith's interest in James was very obvious. Now that Summer had an opportunity, she planned to ask what was going on between the two of them."I've asked you before what happened between you and Keith. Can you tell me now?"The last time Summer had asked, James had just said that they had been good friends but had become enemies because of competition between their families. But Summer felt that things weren't that simple, and there was more hidden behind that story.At the mention of this topic, James' heart seemed to be touched by something. He appeared somewhat melancholic, and his deep eyes twinkled like sparkling crystals. He seemed unwilling to bring up the past.Summer didn't want to trouble him

Keith was convinced that James had manipulated the competition to gain victory and fame through underhanded means.Summer asked, "James, haven't you thought of explaining it to him?""I did explain, but he wouldn't believe me."It was no wonder Keith wouldn't believe him. Without evidence, it was difficult to prove the matter. After all, words alone weren't enough. Keith, being such a suspicious and extreme person, was unlikely to believe him.Now that Summer had learned about what had happened between James and Keith, she had a better understanding of their situation. Additionally, there was another thing she wanted to ask."Today, Keith told me that he killed his brother. What's that about?"James was aware of this matter. It was a highly secretive and taboo subject within the Ritter family. However, James had no intention of hiding it from Summer. He explained how Keith accidentally pushed his brother into traffic, resulting in his brother's death.Upon hearing this, Summ
