NovelEnglish‘Forbes Billionaires list? The most beautiful woman in the world? A son older than Evelyn?’ Davis recalled Carlos’ words once again in his mind, but he stopped there. There was no way he could make it. Staring at the receding figures of the three, Davis suddenly realized something. Carlos was making a joke.
‘Hey, wait. Was he talking about himself? He’s one of the richest men in the world. He’s powerful. His wife is the loveliest singer. Of course he’d want someone just like him to vie for his daughter’s hand…”
Even after they were too far away to see Davis, Carlos still wore a dark expression, emanating coldness. He wasn’t happy with the idea that someone would marry his lovely daughter one day and take her away from him. Debbie sighed helplessly.
“When did you get here? Why didn’t you tellyou and Piggy were coming?” she asked
Carlos’ face softened a little, but his voice still sounded stern when he spoke.

Debbie snapped nonchalantly, “What? You have a problem withhaving dinner with my colleagues?”
Carlos didn’t say anything else. He didn’t dare. He didn’t want to piss her off. At this point, his anger had completely vanished, and he apologized tenderly, “No. My bad. Sorry.” He pulled her closer to him
Debbie sneered, “Carlos, no need to apologize. Givemy daughter and you can leave now.” With that, she reached out her arms to Piggy

Daddy and I missed you. Don’t make us go.”
“Make them go?’
Debbie took a deep breath and forced out a smile before explaining,
“Mommy won’t make you go. You’ll stay with me. But Daddy’s a busy CEO, so we shouldn’t keep him from his work…”
“Honey, that doesn’t matter. Mom can run the company for me,” Carlos quickly chipped in, a cunning smile on his face.

With this nbrought up, the playful smile on his face faded away
“Of course,” he said, a cold glint in his eyes. He had just seen James two days before. The sly old fox should have figured out Carlos was back to normal. But they didn’t talk about that. They just made small talk.
“He’s transferring his property. Sof the staff, cooperative projects and company assets are involved in his case, including the branch company in New York. So I have to handle it carefully and quietly,” Carlos explained. He knew Debbie wanted to see James Live out his remaining days in jail.
So he was collecting evidence of James’ crimes, leaving no stone unturned. He had even employed a third-party finance company to audit
Hilton Group’s accounts, just in case.
As far as he knew, corruption and bribery had beccommonplace in
Hilton Group when James took over as CEO. And it didn’t stop with James
