Supreme Club served as a symbol of Linton Island’s elite, a hub for the cultured and powerful where the unrefined were never welcome. Those who managed to gain entry into the club were either those with deep pockets or significant social standing.

“You should just follow my cues once we step into the private room. You ought to know that this is the perfect opening to connect with the elite. You really have to aim high if you want to get anywhere in life,” Carol said with a toss of her hair.

Scarlett was visibly anxious as she nodded faintly. After all, everyone wanted to move up in the world.

Ashton looked completely unfazed. He had stayed only because he had promised Irene to look after Scarlett and Carol. He didn’t really care much, as it didn’t affect his cultivation.

Carol soon led Scarlett and Ashton into Private Room No. 308.

“You’re finally here, Carol! Have a seat!”

In the private room, people of all walks of life gathered, yet a single young man dominated the scene, like the moon encircled by stars, the undeniable focus of everyone present.

“Are these the cousins you were talking about, Carol?”

It was then that a well-dressed man approached, draping his arm around Carol’s slim waist. He cast a sidelong glance at Scarlett and Ashton, his eyes lighting up when he looked at Scarlett, while Ashton was dismissed with a mere glance.

“I’d like you guys to meet my boyfriend, Sully Larsen. Larsen Group is easily one of the top ten companies on Linton Island,” Carol said with a smug expression, cozying up to Sully.

“Hello, Mr. Larsen,” Scarlett greeted Sully with a gentle, charming smile.

“You’re truly a beauty, Scarlett! I’m finally seeing you in person after hearing Carol mention you. You should come and take a seat beside me!” Sully exclaimed as he licked his lips with a smile, a fleeting look of desire crossing his face.

Ashton merely spared a quick glance in Sully’s direction.

Sully furrowed his brow slightly at Ashton’s attitude. “Your cousin seems rather arrogant, Carol.”

“You’d better greet Mr. Larsen this instant, Ashton!” Carol

Ashton remained unmoved.

ged, giving Ashton a pointed look to warn him to fall in line.

Carol’s expression shifted as she offered Sully a flirtatious smile. “Ashton comes from a poverty-stricken place and doesn’t understand how things work. You shouldn’t bother yourself with someone like him, Sully.”

“It’s fine, so have a seat,” Sully said softly. “You know, there are quite a few important people here today. You see that guy in the center of it all? Do you have any idea who he is, Carol?”

“Who is he?” Carol asked, her curiosity piqued. She had noticed that man’s haughty behavior the moment she walked into the private room. He was surrounded by people seeking to win his good graces, and the women accompanying him were gorgeous and alluring.

“He’s Zeke Zapata, the foremost scion of Linton Island!”

Sully boasted, “You’ve heard of the Zapata family, right? They’re the leading family on Linton Island! Zeke’s father, Brody Zapata, is the richest man around and has half the island under his thumb! He’s the most influential figure on the right side of the law!

“You see, if we can get on Mr. Zapata’s good side, the crumbs from his table would be enough to make us rich!”

Carol’s eyes brightened as she glanced cautiously at Zeke and murmured, “Your network is truly impressive, Sully. It would be amazing if our family could cooperate with Mr. Zapata.”
