Trenton nodded slightly at this, but there was still a flicker of concern in his eyes.
His nephew was unreliable.
“When you meet Jagoan later, ask Winnie to go with you. She’s grown up now. Let her learn more from you,” Trenton said.
He still thought his younger daughter was more reliable than his unreliable nephew. He would feel more assured if the two went to see Jagoan together.
Aaron gazed at Trenton and did not say anything.
Titus did not notice the insult. He nodded and said, “We’ll go together then. Winnie will take over some of the business in the future. It’s good to give her more exposure to things.”
Titus then left the study and left the house with Winnie.

Jagoan knocked on Jagoan’s office door. He only opened the door and entered the office when Jagoan’s voice rang.
“Come in…”
“Mr. Lennon, a man and a woman are outside the company. They want to see you,” Jagoan said.
Jagoan looked up and asked curiously, “Did they not say who they were?”
“The man said he drank with you last night,” Jagoan replied with a confused expression.
He knew Jagoan had been out drinking with Michael, Theodore, and Jadon last night. However, he did not recall meeting the man outside.
Jagoan smiled and said, “Bring them upstairs…”
“Yes!” Jagoan answered and strode out of the office.
Remembering Titus’ behavior last night, the smile on Jagoan’s face widened slightly.
“Did you see me today because the Lake family’s up to something?” Jagoan muttered with a smile.
Led by Jagoan, Titus, and Winnie soon arrived at the office.
Mr. Lennon!” Titus shouted at Jagoan.
Jagoan looked at Titus in disbelief, never expecting Jagoan to go out for drinks and take a disciple yesterday.
Jagoan waved his hand and said, “What I said yesterday was all drunk talk. It doesn’t count. If you really want to learn some self-defense skills, I can ask my staff to teach you, Mr. Lake. They’re strong!”
Jagoan gave Jagoan a look as he spoke.
Jagoan understood immediately. He strode to Jagoan’s desk and said, “Mr. Lennon, your desk is a little skewed. Let me straighten it for you…”
