Chapter 554
Ruby initially dismissed seeing him sitting there twice as mere coincidence. She didn't suspect a thing. That
evening, she and Isaac were heading hlate, way after the amusement park had closed. Isaac had dozed off
in the car. But as they cruised along the roadside, Ruby caught sight of that familiar child again, just a fleeting
glimpse.
His head hung low, and he exuded loneliness, wandering by the road all by himself. His shoulders were trembling
slightly-was he crying? On such a chilly night, there he was, alone on the road. Ruby immediately urged the
driver to turn around. Yet, by the tthey did, the little boy was nowhere to be seen; only a black van zipped
by. Its license plate was hidden, and Ruby's instincts screamed that something was off. She called the police
right away and had the driver carry Isaac out of the car, then she jumped in and chased the van. What happened
over the next few days was a whirlwind. In a nutshell, Ruby's brave actions led to the exposure of the notorious
nationwide child trafficking ring, Operation 121. She saved not just Connor but many other children too. Indeed,
it was Ruby herself who safely brought Connor back to the Sartori family.
The Sartoris had been searching high and low for Connor, unaware that traffickers had taken him-they thought

she kept her smile steady: "Funny how fate works, huh? The Shaw and Sartori families were always the most
distant among the four great families, and now look at us, all tied together."
Connor gave a warm, respectful smile: "For the younger generation, it's truly an honor."
The Shaw family heads were known for their decisive business moves but kept their private lives under wraps.
They weren't big on socializing either. The other three great families had been
intermarrying for gene fel
creating a tangled web of
connections. The Shaws, however, stayed independent, especially after Neil and his wife moved abroad. They
weren't just all about business; they had a passion for philanthropy.
Then Isaac stepped out. "Connor, now that you've married my
sister-in-law, shouldn't you be
Isaac and Connor had been rivals for ages. They went to the suniversity. Isaac was great, but Connor always
edged him out slightly, earning Isaac the nickn"Eternal Isaac" behind his back. When Connor returned home
to start his business, Isaac did too. They competed across many fields, but Connor always had that slight edge.
Eventually, Isaac founded ISC Technology, and boom-he becthe new tech hotshot. He also launched several
esports companies, backing the country's top teams and racking up awards. In this arena, he was the
uncontested king. Since Connor hadn't ventured into esports, it wasn't a direct victory over him, but Isaac still
felt a bit overshadowed.
Connor chuckled: "Sure thing, I'll call you brother-in-law, and you can callKash. We'll each have our titles."
