They did make a small fortune from the deal, but it was nothing compared to the partnership with Empire Corp and the absolute fortune of a starting fund. Jealousy would bring them nowhere, however. Queenie was the owner of the company now, not them."Congratulations, George. Your daughter got herself a great connection. The richest man in Riverton, no less." It was a lie. Hogs was filled to the brim with dismay and hatred.George knew very well the congratulatory remark was fake. "You can save the congratulatory remarks. I just want our company to get back on its feet." He then turned to Yvette. "Where's Queenie?""In her room with that guy," said Yvette."She's still with that charlatan? Really? After all that's happened? Ridiculous. We're talking to her." And George went to Queenie.…Queenie was in her exquisite room. While everyone else was over the moon, she alone looked brooding. Queenie rested her chin on her hands, staring ahead blankly. By her side were Nox and Blackshar

Queenie argued, "Dad, I'll say this once again. I can fall in love with whoever I want. I can date whoever I want, and it's none of your business. If you're still going to control me like you used to, Nox and I will leave this place right away."Since Queenie was starting to get mad, George had no choice but to hold it in. "Calm down, Queenie. I'm doing this for your own good."Queenie was still displeased. George added, "Fine. If you want to keep him around, keep him around. But before we find out who he really is, you're not taking this relationship any further. Understand?""Yeah, yeah.""Good."And they reached an agreement about Nox's stay."Now that you're the boss of our company, you should check things out tomorrow. We need to assuage the workers," George said.Queenie nodded. "Okay."…Nox stayed in the Sanders Residence that night. His room was near Queenie's, and Queenie had Blackshark stay with him."Just make yourself at home. I'm right next door if you need me."

"Calm down, Dad. She wants to manage the company? Fine, let's see how she rolls. Don't forget, the company's filled with our men." Jezebiah snickered.Hogs said, "True. She thinks she can steal what is rightfully ours. Never. Son, make some calls and tell them…"Hogs whispered something to Jezebiah, and Jezebiah smiled darkly. "No problem, Dad. Just sit back and enjoy the show." Jezebiah made his way to a quiet corner and started making calls.…While Queenie and her family were on their way to the company, Nox was still in his room, quietly cultivating. A long while later, his eyes snapped open.The slivers of inner energy swirling around him swam into his body. He stretched his arms and leaped off the ground. Nox came out of his room and was met with a blinding ray of sunlight.He wanted to see Queenie, but her bedroom was empty. Nox asked the servants about Queenie's whereabouts. He was told she and her family had gone to Sanders Pharmaceuticals.Nox smiled. "Good. She can fi

Henry looked at his uniform. In surprise, he asked, "Are you a soldier as well?"Nox smiled, but he said nothing."Still, thank you for what you did. I will do what I can to repay this debt," said Henry with respect."You only healed so fast because it wasn't an illness you were down with.""Are you sure?" Henry now had questions."Yes," said Nox. He asked, "You only started feeling ill after your training, didn't you?""How did you know?" Henry was petrified.Nox answered, "Your training went awry, and the circuit of your inner energy went haywire. The inner energy got stuck in your stomach. All I did was smooth out the energy that's been trapped in your belly for years."Henry was at a loss for words. "You're a miracle, sir. Yes, I did get ill after my training. Forty years ago, when the war was still raging, I found an incomplete fist technique manual among the bodies of fallen soldiers."He continued, "After I retired from the military, I started practicing. Everything was

"You're the one who owes them, not me. The company belongs to your daughter now, remember?" Hogs answered.George thought he would blow up in fury. He couldn't believe his own brother would do this to him, but he couldn't argue. Queenie was the one who owned the place now, and Henry was still in a coma. He couldn't pay the workers."Give us our money!""Pay us, or you're not leaving!"The workers shouted and screamed again. They closed in on Queenie and her family, weapons at the ready. Hogs and Jezebiah smiled darkly.Just when things were about to get out of control, Queenie stepped forth. "I'll pay you guys."All the workers laid eyes on her. Queenie's parents were flummoxed.They thought, 'You're paying them? With what money? We owe them nearly a million. Collectively.'"You're paying? Fine, then show us the money." One of the worker's leaders stepped ahead. The man's name was Hudson Swines. He was a distant relative of Hogs' wife.When Hogs was the boss of Sanders Pharmac
