NovelEnglishJeremiah was at the party, and Gemma was standing next to him.
"Jerry, | think we should take the partnership slowly. You're still young, so it's normal for you to overlook some
details. We can continue our partnership after you've gained more experience." Her intentions were clear. She
was talking about Zoey when she said he'd overlooked sdetails. He understood it as well. However, he
remained calm as he watched her leave.
At that moment, Sunny approached him and said, "Jerry, you sure have great in-laws. Although the Yandells are
mediocre, Zoey's mother is greater than she looks."
Jeremiah just smiled and didn't show any changes in his expression.
As they spoke, Mark had noticed them. He softly said to Xavier, "Mr. Lane, Mr. Jeremiah is with Sunny now."
The Lanes and the Lumbers were rivals, and Sunny hated Xavier to the core. It finally made sense to Xavier why
Jeremiah had been acting weird recently. "Get someone to keep an eye on them." "Yes, sir."
Another reason why Xavier had chere was to find out which of his previous business partners were sincere.
Sof the people he had taken care of in the past talked to him and weren't afraid of offending Jeremiah.
Daphne had already noticed Xavier a while ago. When she saw him, she thought about what Jeremiah had told
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇther to do. Then, she gripped the glass of wine in her hand tightly.
Meanwhile, Jeremiah called her. "I'll be looking forward to your performance tonight."
"Sure."
After he ended the call, he asked Sunny, "We have to watch out for Mark. He has stricks up his sleeve."
Sunny chuckled. "Don't worry. As long as they touch something at the party, they won't be able to resist
anything. Besides, we have something else planned, right?"
He was enjoying himself a lot. In fact, he wanted nothing more than to deal with every single person who'd gone
against him. Yet, he wasn't that bold. So, all he could do was pull strings in the shadows.
He asked in confusion, "Why don't you just kill him, Jerry? That way, the whole Lane family will be yours."
He'd once done the sthing and gotten his own brother killed.
Jeremiah's face fell immediately. "You don't know what you're saying. Just remember that | don't want him dead."
Mark suddenly received a call.
Although he always looked calm he looked anxious at that moment. "Mr. Lane, my girlfriend was in an accident,
and she needs menow.
Lettake you hfirst.
"Sure."
They walked out together, and Mark helped Xavier get into the car. Then, he anxiously drove to his girlfriend.
After Xavier got inside the car, it started moving slowly. Before they got far, they were surrounded by more than
a dozen black cars.
Meanwhile, Yvette noticed that it
was almost time. So, she took Noah along as she drove out to pick Xavier up. When they were on their way, they
didn't notice that someone was following them.
She parked outside Season Hotel's entrance and waited for Xavier to cout.
"Can we go in to take a look?" asked Noah.
"No. We need an invitation to get in. So, let's just wait for him to cout."

"Alright." He looked a little disappointed.
After 20 minutes, it was 10:00 pm, and there were people coming out one after another. However, she didn't see
Xavier at all.
In the end, Noah couldn't hold it in anymore. "Mom, | need to use the washroom."
"Alright. I'll take you there." She parked the car in the most obvious spot, thinking that Xavier could notice it
upon coming out. Then, she took Noah to the washroom inside the hotel. Meanwhile, Tristan felt bored as he
drank his wine. When he noticed Zachary hadn't returned, he thought it was weird. "Why isn't that brat back
yet?"
He didn't know Zachary was hiding
from the middle-aged man from
earlier. After the man had been humiliated, he had been searching for Zachary nonstop. So, the latter had no
choice but to hide in the washroom.
Gemma's subordinate said to her, "Yvette has arrived with her son."
"Well, what are we waiting for?" Gemma asked with a cold gaze. Since Zoey was upset because of Yvette,
Gemma wanted to punish Yvette's son for it.
