Clenching her teeth, Savannah stared at her assistant, barely containing her fury. “Get my gown ready. Since it’s a Lincoln Group welcome party, I won’t go alone. Notify Denton. As the former heir, surely he’d want to meet Silas.”
The assistant nodded hurriedly. “Understood…”
The welcome reception for Silas was being held at an upscale club owned by the Lincoln Group.

Employees needed job security, and stakeholders naturally cheered for results.
From top executives to middle management and the rank–and–file, no one truly cared who was at the helm. As long as it was good for Lincoln Group and their own bottom line, that leader was the best one for the job.
“Mr. Harrison, you’re truly Lincoln Group’s lucky star. The moment you arrived, our old problems just vanished. A real blessing,” several executives were already lavishing praise.
He was not like Justin, whose brilliance was matched by an aloof, solitary demeanor. Justin was respected by Barton Group’s brass but was often seen as too distant. Silas was different. He was not only exceptionally capable but also socially adept and impeccably charming.
“It’s all thanks to everyone’s hard work. Lincoln Group’s reputation, its historical connections, and this very platform are the true treasures,” Silas replied with a polished smile, engaging in the expected back–and–forth that left the executives thoroughly impressed.
“See that, Denton? You hated me for taking your Lincoln Group shares. But look now… Even if I hadn’t taken them, they’d have ended up in Silas’s hands anyway.” Nearby, Savannah smiled mockingly at Denton. “Look at those executives who once supported you. Now they’re all fawning over Silas like eager puppies.”
Denton knew Savannah was trying to goad him into turning against Silas.
“He’s competent, of course people respect him. Unlike you… bustling about, fina…

“Adriana, Silas has completely won over Lincoln Group’s leadership. That was your handrand Curtis’s life’s work. Are you really okay with it falling into someone else’s hands so easily? Savannah stood beside Adriana, watching Silas from a distance.
Adriana smiled faintly. “Curtis is gone. Lincoln Group was left to Denton by the old man 1 have nothing to resent. Besides, Denton is still young. One day, he won’t be any worse than Silas.”
Savannah’s eyes lit up. “Exactly why we should work together, she said eage target is you. Go along with it. Let him bite. Who comes out on top is sri
She understood perfectly well why Mister had sent Silas back to Haldoria the Lincoln Group and Barton Group.
fter both
Lincoln Group was already in Mister’s pocket. Next was the prize everyone coveted–Barton Group.
Chandler and Danielle Barton were useless. Mister had to deploy his trump card.
And that was Silas.
“Ms. Barton,” executives from Harrison Group spotted Adriana and came over to greet her.
“Adriana, good to see you again.” While everyone else addressed her as “Ms. Barton or “Nicole“, Silas consistently called her Adriana.
“Good to see you.” Adriana shook his hand politely.
Savannah scoffed and moved away.
She envied Silas but knew she was no match for him. For now, she’d hang back and let Adriana make the first move.
“Ms. Xander, would you have a moment to speak privately in one of the lounges?” Silas asked with a slight smile.
The others tactfully dispersed.
“Sorry, my husband is the jealous type. I’m afraid if he saw me going into a lounge alone with another man, he’d get upset,” Adriana said with a thin, insincere smile, keeping her guard up.
Silas chuckled. “Your husband… Curtis, right? But he’s…”
