Chapter 1006
Therefore, there was no doubt that Eric would forgive Sylvia. In the past, he led a life worse than a dog's until everything turned around after connecting with Sylvia.Eric always believed that Sylvia brought him good luck.-The Williams gathered happily in the evening and enjoyed a wonderful dinner together. Afterward, Connor and Queenie went for a walk in the garden.Queenie smiled and said, "Your family is really nice. Although you have many siblings, you all are very close to each other, unlike my family."Connor felt uncomfortable hearing that. In his view, a family should live harmoniously. Henry had three sons and a daughter. While Connor and Brook were not interested in business matters, Sylvester and Sylvia were more adept.Sylvia was the sole daughter of several generations of Williams, and everyone in the family pampered her. When she wanted to take control of Williams Corp., Sylvester willingly gave up his position, and the rest also supported this decision.In C

Brook took several steps back, shaking his numb fist. "Well, well, it turns out you have a few bodyguards protecting you!"Ivan smiled faintly. "Although you're one of the top wealthy families here, you still can't make it in King City. I'm here tonight to take Coulson and Queenie with me. Any objection?"Before anyone could speak, Coulson quickly hugged Amelia and said, "Grandma, I don't want to go back with Uncle Ivan. They will bully me, not give me toys to play with, and sometimes won't even let me eat."Amelia's heart melted, and she felt distressed. She held Coulson tightly and said, "Alright! Don't worry. I won't let them take you away."Ivan took out a cigarette, lit it, and waved his hand. "Take Coulson away and search the residence for Queenie.""Yes, sir!" said the four men behind him.They clearly did not take the Williams seriously.In Ivan's eyes, the Williams were nothing compared to his family in King City, and no one could stop him from taking Queenie and Coulso

Ivan came and left quickly.Observing Ivan's bodyguards crawling away from their house, Connor sneered. "They're just a third-tier wealthy family in King City, yet they are so arrogant. If they become a second-tier or even a major family, won't they become even more arrogant?"It was true that Ivan was arrogant and had underestimated the Williams. He had been under the impression he could take back Queenie and Coulson with only four bodyguards."But you shouldn't underestimate them," Queenie said worriedly. "I'm very well aware of what they're capable of once they're in a desperate situation. They're the ones who orchestrated the showdown between holistic and modern medicine."The reason is simple. My family specializes in the production of modern medicine, and they aim to take over the remaining market share of holistic medicine. Big families like them are often ruthless and willing to do anything for their own interests!"She understood her family's capabilities more than anyone

The patient was confident that if he mentioned his financial struggles, Eric would cover the cost of the medicine. However, he understood the importance of not appearing too greedy."Okay." Eric nodded. "Go get the medicine, and remember to take it on time every day."After expressing gratitude once again, the patient left.Kirk smiled and remarked, "Hol. Johnson, you're truly extraordinary. In just three days, he has already shown significant improvement! It's truly incredible!"If the hospital had such a miraculous doctor, all difficult and complex diseases could be easily solved. Unfortunately, Eric's energy was limited, as he had only ventured halfway into the field of medicine and could not fully devote himself to the profession.Hearing Kirk's words, Eric waved his hand and modestly said, "It's nothing commendable. In King City, there are several seasoned holistic physicians with similar skills. It's just a bit unfortunate that most of them are quite old and have retired."

The Williams sat together for dinner, awaiting Eric and Sylvia's return.As they ate, Brook revealed, "After I called Tiger last night, he sent someone to keep an eye on Ivan."This revelation took Queenie aback. It seemed to her that Tiger held a significant position in the underworld. She sensed a strong unity not only among the Williams but also among other families and underworld figures in Salt City.Queenie had observed Irvin visiting the Williams multiple times, establishing a close bond with Eric.Brook continued. "Today, a few individuals from King City sought out Ivan. We suspect them to be the reinforcements he summoned. Queenie, do you know which family in King City has the closest ties to the Oberdeens?"Typically, prominent families maintained their own social circles."It's the Moores," Queenie replied. "The Moores, a second-tier family in King City, have the closest connection to them. Their son is mentally disabled. Lately, my family had been urging me to marry h

Meanwhile, Ivan had arrived at the Williams residence. Besides the Williams, Tyson, a few chefs, and personnel managing the estate, outsourced from relevant companies, were present.The Williams preferred simplicity and refrained from hiring household staff. Regarding security, they deemed it unnecessary, relying on the martial arts skills of the Williams siblings. With Tyson's presence, additional security was deemed redundant.Ivan was aware of the Williams' lack of security and confidently entered with his people. Beside him stood a young man leading about half a dozen men, clearly intending to settle scores with them."Heh. The coward who fled yesterday brought reinforcements today. Do you really believe the few of you can take us down?" Brook taunted.Ivan chuckled. "I didn't anticipate the Williams family having a grandmaster, but that doesn't grant you the right to hold onto people!"He gestured to the young man beside him. "He's Jayden Moore, the heir of the Moore family f
Chapter 1012
Jayden seethed at the sight of Ivan. "What's going on?!"His father's voice had been trembling over the phone, urging him to apologize to the Williams. Matteo had emphasized the scar-faced man, emphasizing that Jayden shouldn't return to King City if he failed to make amends.As for matters concerning the Oberdeens, Gilliard had advised Jayden to distance himself from them.Jayden smirked disdainfully. "The Oberdeens are truly something. My father called to inform me that the engagement between Felix and Queenie is canceled! Simultaneously, the Moores have severed ties with the Oberdeens!"Jayden ignored Ivan and turned to Eric. "Hol. Johnson, my sincere apologies for any offense. Please find it in your heart to forgive me."Eric nodded. "Alright, if there's nothing else, kindly refrain from disturbing my family during their meal."Quickly, Jayden led his men away from the Williams residence, leaving Ivan bewildered in his wake."Damn it!" Ivan cursed under his breath, questioni

Connor understood Amelia's concerns. The entertainment business brimmed with temptations, no doubt.Amelia's joy radiated. "Sylvester, you and Seraphine need to expedite things, too. Misty is on the brink of giving birth. Once their little one starts toddling, I can look after another."Raising kids was challenging, yet Amelia relished it. She had already brought up her four children, so a few more wouldn't faze her.More people meant a livelier atmosphere—an extension of her dream to have more grandchildren.-Sylvia and Eric had rested adequately and arrived at the Innova Group in the morning. The couple approached the entrance and spotted an employee briskly leaving with a box."Hold on!" Eric called out.The employee halted and turned, smiling. "Good morning, Ms. Williams and Mr. Johnson."Eric studied the employee. "Lenny... are you resigning?"Eric's memory served him well—Lenny Young had been with Innova Tech since its inception. When the Innova Group formed, Lenny cont
