Chapter 146
In the following days, the Smith family launched a full–scale business assault on the Chambers family.
Dennis went to great lengths to destroy every project the Chambers were part of even at the expense of hefty penalty fees, causing nearly all the Chambers family’s projects to be at a standstill in just two weeks.
Moreover, Dennis made a public statement to everyone in Seacrity, swearing that the Smiths would be enemies with the Chambers forever and only one of the two would survive.
Half a month later, the Carter family got involved in it to help the Smiths against the Chambers.”
The Chamber family’s hotel chain was severely damaged.
With the involvement of the Carter family, everyone knew the end of this battle was almost certain. The Chambers family would be finished.
The Chambers family was under a
from all sides. All the employees felt uneasy, seeking their own way out. If this war
didn’t stop, the Chambers family would be bankrupt in less than ten days.
People in the business world were experts at adapting to the situation.
Seeing that the Chambers family was about to collapse, everyone began pleasing the Smith family and distancing themselves from the Chambers.
Only a few companies that were on good terms with the Chambers Group didn’t take advantage of the situation. But it made no difference and couldn’t help to change the crisis that the Chambers Group faced.
The games of these super–powerful families weren’t way beyond them.
They might be targeted and even wiped out if they weren’t careful enough. So, all the small and medium–sized companies in Seacrity chose to avoid this conflict between the Smith family and the Chambers family.
The Lewis family was the only one of the four major families that stayed out of it.
The Smith family, the Carter family, and the Chambers family were fighting bercely.
The business world in Seacrity changed dramatically every day. Everyone felt nervous and uneasy.
The day after the party, Dennis went to the Carter residence with Nellie and Winona,
Dennis and Claude had a private conversation in the study on the second floor for three hours.
When they walked downstairs, Claude agreed to let Winona marry into the Carter family. The wedding would take place six months later.
Winona made every effort to make herself look pitiful and even Blept with Victor.
After sleeping with her, Victor forgave her for lying and promised to marry her.
After the party, everyone in Seacrity’s upper class knew Winona pulled off a huge lie. She claimed that the painting she bought on Mysonna’s black market was a real Cyanbird piece. Her reputation was already ruined.
Besides, clearly, Robert didn’t approve of Winona. So when the Carter family announced Victor and Winona’s engagement, those who knew the truth were shocked
They thought Claude was out of his mind and couldn’t understand why he allowed someone with such a bad reputation to marry into the Carter family.

No matter what was going on outside the campus of Argrol University, Yvette and Bonnie’s daily routine remained the same which was basically going to the classes and then doing the endless homework left by Tobias.
At the same time, the man who occasionally showed up to remind everyone of his existence since he dated Yvette kept doing the same thing.
Andrew and Bonnie had been going through a tough time over the past half–month. Now, they were sitting across from each other in the cafeteria. They exchanged a glance, thinking, “Well, he’s here again.
Yvette sat lazily and casually on the chair.
Her face was shining under the sunlight. She had her beautiful curly lashes and big bright eyes
She was eating leisurely. Though the food was plain, Yvette’s way of eating it made people think it was exceptionally tasty.
Even Andrew, who wasn’t particularly hungry, and Bonnie, who had enterogastritis, suddenly felt hungry.
They ended up eating half a bowl more than they usually did.
Bonnie rubbed her belly and glanced at Andrew, who had also eaten a lot of the food. She sighed. Now they were really like a perfect group of four, no, three meal partners.
After they sat down, Jeremiah only took a few bites. He spent the rest of the time peeling shrimp for Yve and refreshing her glass. He was a perfect boyfriend.
Bonnie sighed and thought, ‘Being single these days is really miserable. These two lovebirds surely don’t mind public displays of affection at all!
Bonnie and Andrew had gotten used to things like this.

Bonnie really wanted to complain about these two big shots. She wondered why they didn’t do anything other than eat together when they wanted to have a date.
Jeremiah was sitting next to Yvette, calmly peeling shrimp with the hand that he usually used to use a gun.
He did it slowly and carefully and his fingers were slim and beautiful.
Jeremiah made everything easy on the eyes to watch even when he was peeling shrimp.
Jeremiah put the peeled shrimp on Yvette’s plate.
Yvette took a glance at it. She picked it up to throw it into fier mouth and found it delicious.
Bonnie decided to talk with th

No other couple would go on dates like this for two weeks doing nothing except for going to the cafeteria.
Bonnie thought, ‘Big shots are indeed different. Even their method of choosing a place for a date is unique. Cafeteria. And Cafeteria. And cafeteria again.
Bonnie cleared her throat.
