“Yes, Mr. Teddy!”
After ending the call, Teddy instantly dialed another number.

On the other end, Levi answered promptly, “Mr. Teddy, what are your orders?”
“We can’t let the Wolf Warrior return and operate as he pleases. Let’s burn
down his territory first! Without a base, he’ll be like a wandering spirit, unable
to pose a threat to our forthcoming great plan!”
After giving his orders, Teddy hung up the phone, his expression turning
somewhat menacing.
“Teddy, are you still awake?”
His demeanor shifted instantly when he heard the concerned voice. With a
cheerful smile, he called out, “Catherine I’m coming!”

Elsewhere in Yeringham, in the morning, Alessandra and Tia arrived at the
Quillen residence in a Rolls–Royce. Alessandra had scheduled a meeting with
Terence to discuss some important matters.
Since Terence took over as the Chairman of Nuthana Chamber of
Commerce, the Quillen family had truly become the undisputed ruler of
Nuthana. This old fox had returned to the fray, elevating all four of his
daughters to key roles within the Chamber of Commerce and rapidly
promoting his subordinates. In just over a month, the Quillen family had
soared to the peak of power in Nuthana.
Even the commercial hub of Nuthana was beginning to shift from Aberdeen
to Yeringham. At this pace, it seemed inevitable that the provincial capital
would eventually follow suit.
When Tia helped Alessandra out of the car, she was taken aback to find that the Quillen residence was packed with prominent figures, even from the parking lot! They were all dressed in sharp formal wear, projecting an aura of authority and sophistication. Seeing such a sight, both of them felt a bit
overwhelmed as one was from the rural area while the other had been a

kindergarten teacher. Neither of them had ever encountered anything like
this before.
They felt like ducks among swans, afraid of being looked down upon. Even
though their attire had changed significantly, it still fell far short when
compared to the sophistication of those around them.
“Ms. Franks?” Suddenly, a middle–aged man dressed in a high–end suit and
polished leather shoes called out to Tia.
“Who are you?” Tia asked instinctively, her expression a bit fearful. She was
like someone from a small town meeting a city scion!
The middle–aged man eagerly introduced himself. “Ms. Franks, you must
have forgotten me! I’m the father of Kevin Davis, the CEO of Five Elements
Pharma!”
“Oh, of course! Mr. Davis!”
Tía suddenly remembered–back in kindergarten, Kevin was the only child
who was dropped off in a sleek, high–end Porsche Panamera. She recalled

how the teachers couldn’t help but gossip about Kevin’s father at that time!
Who would have thought I’d run into him here today?
Even more surprising was that he was addressing her with such respect. “Ms.
Franks, is this your mother–in–law?”
My mother–in–law!
She was taken aback by the unexpected attention but nodded in
acknowledgment. Before she knew it, the crowd erupted!
Before Kevin’s father could even begin to flatter Alessandra, the other
distinguished guests around them immediately started showering the older
woman with compliments!
“Oh, so you’re Mr. Lowe’s mother? What an honor to meet you!”
“I’m Steve Nelson, Vice President of Deerfield Holdings. Just call me Steve!”
“I am James Mitchell, the CEO of Vava Group. I’d like to offer you 1.5 million as

a gesture of goodwill, hoping to be friends with you. In the future, I’ll be at your
service-”
The flattery continued…
These prominent figures were outdoing each other with extravagant flattery
and deference, leaving both Tia and Alessandra quite stunned! Especially Tia,
who had never imagined in her wildest dreams that she would find herself in
such a position. What had she done to deserve this?
Nothing at all–I had merely married the straightforward Ryder!
“What are you all doing? Don’t make a commotion in the Quillen residence
like this, or I’ll have you all thrown out. Got it?”
Fortunately, at that moment, a distinguished woman emerged. She was
accompanied by the residence’s head of security, Logan Collins, and two
squads of formidable professional bodyguards.
They swiftly dispersed the crowd and ‘rescued‘ the startled Alessandra and

“Oh, it’s Ms. Lenoir!” Seeing Felicity, Alessandra immediately approached with
warmth and enthusiasm. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
The previously aloof Felicity was now much friendlier and welcoming. She
gently took Alessandra’s arm and said, “Ms. Alessandra, don’t worry about
these people. Just let them wait. They’re all here to make connections!”
She led Alessandra and Tia into the mansion.
Once inside, Tia felt a significant sense of peace and quiet.
