After a brief moment of thought, Nash nodded and said, "That works. I'll likely rebuild the Young Family Village."
Theo raised his glass, took a sip, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
If Nash saw that Young Family Village had already been restored to its original state, Theo wondered if it would make him happy. This was Theo's New Year's gift to Nash.

In the evening, Stetson Schmidt hosted a dinner at the Springside Hotel.
Theo and Wilcox made sure to get Nash to drink a few more glasses. Even without using his spiritual power, neither of them could match Nash.
Stetson joined in, but after three to five glasses, he found an excuse to slip away.
Stetson was Wilcox and Theo's biological father. He raised his glass to Nash and said, "Mr. Calcraft, thank you for looking after Theo!"
Nash clinked his glass with Stetson's and smiled. "Theo and I are good friends. There's no need to thank me."
After sharing a few more drinks with Stetson, the conversation turned to why Theo was sent to the Skye family in Capiton. When Stetson was young, he had done some favors for the Skye family.
It was with the Schmidts' support that the Skye family established a solid business foundation.
More than 20 years ago, when the original Schmidt patriarch, Lennox Schmidt, passed away, the Schmidts immediately began a power struggle.
Humphery Schmidt's family was secretly and openly framed by several other Schmidt family branch heads. In just a few months, they faced various assassination attempts and car accidents. Theo was born during this turbulent time.
Humphery was worried that he couldn't compete with those branches, so he entrusted Theo to the Skye family in Capiton to preserve his bloodline.
He was concerned that the Schmidt branches might trace Theo to the Skye family, so he cut ties with them.
After hearing Stetson's explanation, Nash sighed helplessly once again.
He had often marveled at the ruthless nature of power struggles within wealthy families.
