At spoint, Ronald walked up to Elizabeth's side and said, “Looks like | was wrong when | said my dear
daughter had
latched onto Bowen.
“Impressive! She actually managed to win Bowen's heart.”
He seemed to sigh in contemplation, but his gaze never left Elizabeth's face. Her expression was terrifyingly
grim. In Elizabeth's eyes, Bowen was the epitof perfection-so exceptional he was almost untouchable.
She had been chasing after him for as long as she could remember. Unlike the others who threw themselves at
him just because they liked him, she believed that as long as she becoutstanding enough to stand shoulder
to shoulder with him, he would eventually notice her.
‘But why? A clueless little girl, barely grown. What made her worthy?’ Elizabeth thought, puzzled.
Elizabeth composed herself and said, “Mr. Wilson, one should know where to draw the line.”
Ronald laughed. He couldn't care less who Elizabeth liked; all he wanted was to rope in the Lawson Group to help
him take down the Turner Group and Aubree.

‘So far, the results have been pretty good, Ronald thought smugly. It was, in a way, one bit of good news that
had managed to lift his spirits a little over the past few days.
“The project's now ours. Just as we agreed earlier, Wilson Group gets 40%, and Lawson gets 60%,” Ronald said.
After all, Elizabeth was a seasoned businesswoman. She quickly masked her emotions and put on a strictly
professional demeanor.
“Of course, this project is a juicy cut we snatched right from under Turner Group's nose. If it succeeds, Elizabeth,
your standing will soar far beyond what it was before. Only a blind person wouldn't see who's truly superior,”
Ronald said.
Ronald’s words struck a chord with Elizabeth. She couldn’t wait for Bowen to finally see her existence and realize
who was truly the one most suited for him.
“I plan to invest more to push the project forward faster,” she said.
After snatching a project right out from under Bowen Turner's nose, Ronald was in high spirits the past two days.
The East District project also helped him regain his footing at the Wilson Group after all the recent .
Bryan had also returned to the Wilson Group, but Ronald still held the chairman's position while Bryan was the
General Manager.
As Ronald put it, he had to keep a close eye on Bryan now, as nobody knew what reckless actions he might take
out of guilt toward Aubree.
“Have the Morgan family turn up the heat on Aubree,” Ronald ordered.
Even before the uproar surrounding MindDrift had died down, Playzy was already caught up in its own .
A video of the entire Morgan family went viral on the internet. The setting was a hospital. In the video, Arthur lay
silently in bed, his body hooked up to numerous medical devices.
Behind the hospital bed stood various members of the Morgan family, each with different expressions but all
sharing the

soverwhelming grief on their faces.
“Are ordinary people’s lives any less valuable?”
“If the life of that MindDrift’s live streamer, Nick, matters, my son’s doesn't. Is that so?”
“He's just a teenager; his life's just begun!”
“Aubree, you and your team have gone too far! You keep investigating. Why didn’t you give us any explanation?”
The video reignited the public outrage that had just begun to subside. With Carmen’s incident still fresh in
everyone's minds, the condemnation of Aubree beceven more relentless.
A teenager lay in a hospital bed, hooked up to various instruments, his deathly pale face visible, while his family
stood behind him, weeping uncontrollably. Who wouldn't be moved by such a sight?
The people rallied together, waving banners and demanding Playzy’s shutdown. Yet none realized that Playzy
and MindDrift were worlds apart.
While MindDrift was notorious for pushing boundaries and exploiting its streamers for sensational content and
quick profits, Playzy enforced a strict zero-tolerance policy against any violations.
Aubree had Vincent keep close tabs on Arthur. Aimost the moment the video went live, she received messages
from Vincent.
[Our people are keeping watch from a hidden spot in the hospital. Today, the entire Morgan family entered the
ward through another hospital entrance, avoiding all the reporters. In line with our investigation, Arthur's mother
is pregnant. Judging from her belly, she’s probably six to seven months pregnant.]
[The video must have just been shot and uploaded. They're still at the hospital now, with reporters swarming
outside. There's no way they can leave anytsoon.]
