Micah strode forward, his face dark. He snapped at Hewitt, “Hewitt, what is all this yelling? All of you, step back.”
He turned to Sara and said, “Sara, since Ethan wants you to sign, you’ll sign on behalf of the Stewart family.”
“Okay, Grandpa,” Sara smiled.
She took the pen and signed her name on the contract.
Hewitt and his family went pale, their faces twisted with rage.
They had been arrogant and triumphant moments ago. Now they looked defeated, exhausted, and miserable.
Zoey took it the hardest. She’d always been competitive with Sara.
Now that Sara had signed this huge deal for the family, the blow was devastating.
She’d even mocked Sara earlier, telling her to give up the trade business. Now her words felt like a slap in the face.
“Sara, that’s my girl!” Chuck laughed when the contract was signed. He glanced at Hewitt and teased, “Of course, we should thank Hewitt for all his hard work. No success, but plenty of effort.”
Hewitt’s face turned purple with anger, but he couldn’t say a word.
“Excellent! Sara deserves full credit for the Reed family partnership,” Micah said, staring at the signed contract with a wide smile.
Stefan quietly slipped out of Hidden Dragon Hall. Korbin was calling.
He answered and said, “What’s up?”
Korbin said, “Mr. Bryant, Leroy has come out of seclusion. He’s broken through to
Transformed Sect Grandmaster.”
Jan nodded. So Leroy, the vice-leader of the Tiger Head Society, had used the Quintessence cir from the auction to become a Transformed Sect Grandmaster.

“So Leroy’s going to lead the Tiger Head Society against the Celestial Wyrm Society?” he asked.
“Most likely, Mr. Bryant. It could happen any day now.”
Stefan nodded. “Got it. Let me know the second he makes a move.”
Korbin said, “I will, Mr. Bryant.”
Stefan hung up and glanced back at the hall. Sara had signed the contract-he had nothing to worry about here.
Next, he planned to visit Norris of the Celestial Wyrm Society.

Back in Hidden Dragon Hall, Chuck was beaming. He hadn’t looked this good in front of the first and second branches in years.
He wasn’t about to waste the chance to gloat.
Ever since Sara’s coma, the third branch had lost resources and respect. Today, they were finally back on top.
Audrey smiled from ear to ear.
