NovelEnglishChapter 402: The Potential Peril Xander nodded after hearing Burnet's words. "I know. I didn't take it lightly when I worked for the Peridot Consortium over the past few years. I discovered that the force behind the Peridot Consortium is formidable." "Then why are you doing this?" Buscowled at him.
"Because it's my duty as a disciple of Doomsday Base," Xander explained. "Even if the Peridot Consortium is akin to hell, I must proceed if King and the chief instructor command me." Bugazed at Xander for a few seconds, then suddenly burst into laughter.
Xander had been coddled by their family since childhood. He was delicate and flawed in character, lacking both responsibility and a sense of purpose. His actions were always driven by whims.

At least he had learned bravery and understood his duties and responsibilities. Burealized that Marissa, as the chief instructor of Doomsday Base, had shaped Xander into the man he was today. He couldn't help but think highly of her.
She had accomplished what no one else could-turning Xander into a mature individual.
Reflecting on this, Busighed. "The chief instructor, Black Mallow, of Doomsday Base, truly is exceptional." Xander, taken aback by the sudden praise, subconsciously raised his chin with pride and responded, "Absolutely. My chief instructor is my guiding light." Bulaughed heartily.
In the past, Xander always proclaimed that Buwas his guiding light. Now, that had changed. Marissa had bechis new priority, relegating Buto second place.
Buwas unsure of Marissa's age but admired her ability to influence so deeply. The young scion from the Hoffman family had turned into her most devoted advocate. Buacknowledged that Marissa had remarkable skills.
Since Xander was not receptive to his advice, Bufelt powerless. He lowered his head and sent a message to Connor: "What exactly is going on between you and Tiffany? Is your marriage just a facade? Please clarify." Connor replied promptly, "Mr. Hoffman, since when have you taken such an interest in others' private affairs?" Bushot back, "I'm not prying for the sake of curiosity. Tiffany Nash and my brother, Xander, have announced they are dating. She cto seewith him today. Should I welcher?" Connor responded immediately, "Where are you? Givethe location." "Crystal Hotel," Bureplied.
Connor's reply cinstantly. "I'll be right there." Then, he ceased messaging Burnet.
Raising an eyebrow, Bupondered the situation.

He had heard of Tiffany before but hadn't paid her much attention. When news of her marriage to Connor surfaced, he initially disregarded it, though the realization that someone had genuinely married Connor was unexpected. Although Connor was his friend, their interactions were sporadic. As heads of their respective families, their meetings were rare.
To the outside world, they appeared more as competitors than friends, given the perpetual rivalry among the four dominant families in Bleber.
When rumors online suggested the marriage between Connor and Tiffany was a sham, Bufelt this made sense.
Knowing Connor as well as he did, he doubted his friend would genuinely fall for someone like Tiffany. However, their recent exchange shifted Burnet's perspective. It was clear Connor held deep feelings for his wife.
Connor was a formidable business magnate. Who would dare to entangle themselves with a woman he cherished?
Realizing the potential peril for Xander, Bulooked directly at him and asked with gravity Xander, are you really dating Tiffany, or is this just a ruse for your mission from Doomsday Base? Be honest with me, Xander."
