Nyla and her stepmother-we shouldn’t interfere too much.”
Camilla smirked. “At least Dr. Baldwin knows how to behave. Well then, I’ll be heading out.”
She stood up and, as if it were the most natural thing in the world, ordered, “Nyla, help me to the car.”
Then, in a warning tone, she added, “I’ll be back this time next month, so don’t even think about hiding your paycheck. If you don’t have the full amount ready, don’t bother trying to step foot in the Goth family’s house.”
Nyla quickly nodded. “I understand, Madam. Don’t worry ‘ll give you everything.”
Camilla nodded in satisfaction, putting on a fake, affectionate smile. “That’s a good girl. At least my efforts in raising you haven’t been in vain. You know how busy your father is, and I’m the only one managing the household. Even in my rare moments of rest, I still have to look after you.
“So Nyla, you should understand just how much effort I’ve put into you.”

Nyla opened her mouth slightly but said nothing. After seeing Camilla off, she walked back in looking utterly dejected.
Francesca’s patience finally snapped. “Nyla, be honest with me-is that bitch abusing you? Is she manipulating you?”
Nyla avoided her gaze. “Dr. Aicker, please don’t ask. I don’t want to talk about my family.”
Francesca grew even more frustrated. “Nyla, I’m asking you one last time-is she mistreating you? Has she been controlling and pressuring you this whole time? If you don’t speak up, no one will be able to help you. If we don’t step in, you’ll be stuck living like this forever!”
Nyla pressed her lips together, remaining silent for a long time. Then, tears welled up in her eyes as she choked out, “I appreciate your concern, Dr. Aicker… Andy…
I really do. But right now, I don’t want to talk about it. I just want to be alone.”
Francesca looked heartbroken and furious, ready to press further.
However, Kingsley held her back, shaking his head. “Let her be for now. She’s too proud to air her family’s dirty laundry. If you keep pushing, you’ll only hurt her more-it won’t help.”
Francesca clenched her fists. “So what, we’re just supposed to stand by and watch that witch steal everything she’s worked for?”
Kingsley remained calm. “At the end of the day, this all comes down to the head of the Goth family. We should find him and see what’s going on.”
Francesca scoffed. “Dominic Goth? He’s known for being spineless in Jayrodale’s elite circles. Talking to him probably won’t change a thing!”
Adrew and Francesca both knew this was not an easy situation to meddle in.
After all, it was an internal matter within the Goth family, and Nyla was refusing to say anything.
Kingsley decided it was best to wait and observe for now, keeping Francesca from getting further involved. Just then, his phone rang-it was Natasha.
The moment he answered, her voice came through, cold and sharp. “Darling, Quinton is using his status as the heir of the Wright family to summon all the major players in Jayrodale for a meeting. From the looks of it, he’s trying to use the Wright family’s influence to stir up trouble and put pressure on you.”
Kingsley, however, remained unfazed. He chuckled. “Then you and Dylan should go and listen. Let’s see if Mr. Wright has anything worthwhile to say.”
Quinton was clearly still unwilling to give up. He was dead set on getting his hands on the Vitality Pill and
Titan Essence Pill. If that was the to play this game to the endomet case, Kingsley was more than ready swnc

The massive conference room was buzzing with activity.
Quinton sat back with one leg crossed over the other, his polished branded loafers casually propped up on the large round table. He looked completely at ease, though it was clear he was putting on a show.
People continued arriving for his so-called roundtable meeting, including some of the most influential figures in Jayrodale. Among them were Natasha, Dylan, and Harvey the head of the Weller family-as well as representatives from Madblade Martial Academy and the Goth family.
Shawn, ever the suckup, leaned forward with a flattering grin. “Mr. Wright, your influence is truly unmatched. Look around-everyone who holds real power in Jayrodale, from the high society elites to the underground forces, has shown up just for you!”
Quinton did not respond, but the smirk on his lips grew even more noticeable. Sitting beside him, apart from Shawn, was another notable figure-Hannah.
She had not spoken a word, but internally, she was reeling. The level of power Quinton wielded as the heir of the Blumedale Wright family was staggering.
With nothing more than a single announcement-without even making a personal call-he had summoned Jayrodale’s most formidable forces, and they had all obediently come running.
Even Dylan and Natasha, the dominant figures in the city’s underground world, had no choice but to sit at this table with him. That alone convinced Hannah that she had made the right choice in siding with him.
In the past, she had hoped the Weller family would help propel Snees Corporation to new heights, or that Aspen’s influence could strengthen the Snees family. But now, looking at the bigger picture, both Harvey and Aspen seemed insignifican’t.
It was Quinton alone who stood at the top-someone with the kind of power that could truly shape the future. She had struggled and hesitated so many times before, but this time, she was sure of it.
This time, fate had finally placed her on the winning side.
As more people settled in, Quinton still did not bother moving his foot from the table. It was not just arrogance- he knew exactly what he was doing. Handling the power players of Jayrodale required a different approach. If he acted too civilized, they would not take him seriously.
Sometimes, the best way to control people was to make a statement-one so blatant that they had no choice but to acknowledge it.
And it worked. He had them right where he wanted them.
“Since everyone is here, I won’t waste time with pleasantries,” Quinton said, his tone distant and commanding.
There was no need for him to thank them for attending or act politely As the heir to the Wright family, he had no obligation to play nice with a bunch of small-time power brokers.
Hannah watched, more convinced than ever. Quinton was leagues above these people, completely unfazed, completely in control.
His ability to manipulate people-his precision in reading the room-was flawless.
Following him, she knew she would learn a great deal.
Compared to him, whatever charm or brilliance Kingsley once had now seemed utterly cheap and forgettable.
Rodney, however, was not impressed. He did not like Quinton’s smug attitude, but he was not foolish enough to provoke him outright.
So, with a fake grin, he chuckled. “Mr. Wright, you must have some grand plans for coming all the way to little old Jayrodale. But before anything else, it seems you’ve e already made your first big achievement-capturing the heart of Jayrodale’s beloved Ice Queen. So tell us, Mr. Wright, how does she taste? Or are you planning to share?” The crude, suggestive remark sent the room into fits of laughter as several men joined in, jeering and snickering. Hannah’s face turned bright red. Humiliation and rage surged through her, but she did not dare lash out. After all, Madblade Martial Academy was not an opponent the Snees family could afford to offend.
Quinton, however, remained completely unfazed. He spoke in an even, casual tone. “I’d say, Mr. Sanford, that making such a vulgar joke in this setting is highly inappropriate.
“Ms. Snees is a woman of intelligence and grace-someonez worthy of admiration and respect. So, I suggest you take back your words, and I don’t want to hear anything like that again.”
Rodney let out a cold snort and said nothing more.
Plenty of people around could not help but be shocked-Quinton was really something else. After all, Rodney was usually wild and arrogant, never caring about anyone, but Quinton shut him right down with just a few words.
Now, that was what you called true dominance,
Hannah leaned toward Quinton and whispered gratefully, “Thank you, Mr. Wright, for stepping in.”
Quinton flashed a charming smile and replied, “It’s nothing. Since you’ve already decided to join me for the development project in Blumedale, you’ll be under my care from now on. Naturally, I have to keep you well protected.”
His words were laced with an obvious flirtation, like a possessive man doting on his favorite girl.
Hannah did not say anything, but Quinton was secretly feeling very pleased with himself.
He believed a true master never showed all his cards and had no doubt he would win Hannah over eventually. There was no rush-when the time came, the famous Ice Queen would melt on her own and give herself to him completely.
Off to the side, Shawn watched with a bitter mix of envy and frustration. He had been lusting after Hannah for a while, but now it was clear that Quinton had his eye on her too.
That meant Shawn’s little fantasy was nothing more than wishful thinking. The more he thought about it, the more bitter he felt.
Nonetheless, that bitterness quickly turned into a burning hatred toward Kingsley. He thought if he could bring down Kingsley, Quinton would be pleased. Then, once Quinton got bored of Hannah-because guys like him always did he would probably be generous enough to toss her his way.
Shawn figured that would not be so bad.
Meanwhile, Natasha rolled her eyes and said impatiently, “Mr. Wright, you’ve been talking for a while now, but when are you actually going to get to the point?”
Quinton let out a light laugh and responded politely, “Madam Vostokoff, no need to be anxious. Forgive me for the delay-let’s get started.”
However, Natasha felt disgusted by his fake smile. With her experience, she could spot a player a mile away.
Quinton, in her book, was a first-rate womanizer In other words, he was premium grade trash. And
Hannah? In her eyes, that girl was a high-level manipulator too. The fact that the two of them had ended up orbiting each other actually surprised her.
“I came to Jayrodale with plans to invest somewhere between five to ten billion dollars,” Quinton announced. “And I’m talking about a major, full-scale investment.”
He purposely paused and scanned the room. He looked very satisfied when he saw the stunned expressions of all the local Jayrodale representatives.
The amount was not just a big investment-it was massive
Harvey from the Weller family was quickly intrigued. He leaned forward eagerly and asked, “Mr. Wright, may I ask which industries you plan to invest in with such a huge amount?”
The others perked up instantly, all ears. If the Wrights were planning to put that kind of money into their particular industries, it would only mean that they were getting rich.
“I already have a clear idea of which sectors and markets this money will go into,”
Quinton said, teasing them a little longer.
Then, his tone changed, and his expression darkened as he let out a cold scoff. “However, before the investment could even begin, I was met with some very unpleasant treatment here in Jayrodale.was rudely pushed aside and made to feel unwelcome.
“Because of that, my original enthusiasm for investing here has started to seriously waver. So tell me, everyone- can you understand how I’m feeling right now? It’s complicated. Very, very complicated.
“On one hand, want to put this money into your city and give you all the opportunity to grow and build strong ties with the Wrights. But on the other hand, I feel disrespected. Because someone in Jayrodale had the nerve to treat me like I didn’t even matter.”
He asked, “So, ladies and gentlemen, while I can tolerate that kind of treatment, can you?”
The moment Quinton said that, several people in the room erupted in outrage.
Dominic, the head of the Goth family, slammed his hand on the table and declared, “Mr. Wright, you’re an honored guest from Blumedale, bringing billions to help revitalize Jayrodale!
“We’re beyond grateful you’d even consider investing here and yet someone actually had the nerve to offend you? Mr. Wright, if you just say the word, the Goth family will be the first to deal with whoever that bastard is!”
Harvey was not about to fall behind and quickly chimed in, Mr. Wright, you’re our meal ticket-our livelihood depends on you. Who the hell was blind enough to cross you? The Weller family would walk through fire for you, no hesitation!” Everyone else immediately jumped in, each one eager to win Quinton’s favor.
“Mr. Wright, just tell us-who was it? Which family or which group pissed you off? Whoever it was, we’ll drag them out and make them get on their knees in front of you and beg for forgiveness!”
“Seriously, are they stupid or what? When someone like Mr Wright shows up-a walking jackpot-you roll out the red carpet, not insult him!”
However, not everyone joined in on the outrage.
Rodney, Dylan, Natasha, and Stephen all stayed seated, watching the scene unfold like it was just another show. They were curious about what Quinton was really playing at.
As Quinton glanced around the room, he was filled with disdain and silent laughter. With just a few loaded words, these small-time players were falling over themselves, ready to die for him.
That was the power of the Wright family name-the effect of being that guy.
His eyes briefly lingered on Hannah, and he noticed that she seemed affected by his presence. That filled him with even more smug satisfaction-though part of him also started feeling bored.
