Ophelia was barely hanging on; her heart was racing like it might explode. The veins on her forehead were throbbing, and she didn't even have the strength to make a fist
She opened her mouth, but her throat was so tight that she couldn't make any sound.
The woman, clutching her chest, slowly moved closer. She sail, Please, Ms. Spencer"
In the banquet hall, Xander formally introduced Noah as the next president to everyone.
One remarked, "As expected, Mr. West's son is truly exceptional
Another person chimed in. "He definitely lives up to being Mr. West's son."
Praises were everywhere, with some people trying to curry favor while others were envious.
Noah was dressed in a black suit with perfect proportions; when he kept his mouth closed, his natural charisma and strong presence were undeniable
But his frequent eye blinking, noticeable only to Kenneth, showed his lack of confidence. Noah wished it would all end soon.
Luckily, Xander only let Noah be in the spotlight without giving him a chance to speak; otherwise, Noah might have embarrassed himself.
Kenneth glanced at his watch and frowned, noticing there wasn'emuch traffic near the restrooms. He thought, 'Why hasn't Ophelia come out yet? He turned and headed to the restroom.
Phoebe asked, "Kenneth, where are you headed? What about Ophelia?" She stepped in Kenneth's path and glanced behind him
Kenneth gave Phoebe a cold glance, examining her for a couple of seconds. He pressed his tongue against his molars, then ignored her and strode towards the restrooms. Kenneth shouted, "Are you inside. Ophelia?"
The bathroom was silent, with no response.
Kenneth didn't care if anyone was inside; he opened each door to check. He called, "Elia.."
The entire bathroom emply.
Kenneth clenched his bark teeth, his jaw muscles twitching slightly, with a hidden fury in his eyes. He turned around and headed back to the ballroom
Everyone watched as an enraged Kenneth grabbed Phoebe by the neck.
Kenneth asked, "Phoebe, where's Ophelia? Didn't I warn you? How dared you mess with my people? Have you considered the consequences?"
Phoebe said, "Kenneth, w-what are you talking about? 1-1 don't understand." She instinctively tightened her grip on Kenneth's arm, her pale face quickly turning red
As her breath became weaker, her grip loosened. For a moment she believed Kenneth, who was out of mind, might strangle ber. She called, "Kenneth..."

Kenneth suddenly let go of Phoebe.
Feeling dizzy, Phoebe twisted her ankle and fell onto the table beside her, pulling the tablecloth with her. Glasses and desserts clattered to the floor along with the tablecloth. The noise was so loud it attracted the attention of the entire hallmom.
Kenneth took out a gray handkerchief and wiped his hands that had touched Phoebe.

Seeing this, Phoebe looked hurt, her chest aching badly. With jears in her eyes, she asked, "Cough, cough... Kenneth, why are you treating me like this?"
Kenneth shot Phoebe a cold glance, his face full of disdain. He threw the handkerchief he used onto the floor and stepped on it with his polished black leather shoe. Phoebe said. "Kenneth. I love you. But it doesn't mean you can trample all over my feelings like this?"
The entire hall was so quiet one could hear a pin drop. Kenneth reputation was known to some and witnessed by others, leaving no one brave enough to step forward. Kenneth said, "Spare me the disgust. His voice was icy cold as he instructed the bodyguard, "Take her back and ask the Davidson family how much her life is worth." At the mention of the Davidson family, Xander glanced at Noah beside him. Seeing that Noah had no reaction, Xander slowly stepped forward.
As the president, it was essential for Xander to replace out what was happening in situations like this. After all, when Kenneth, got angry, the entire Heloria would feel the tremor. Xander called. "Kenneth"
Kenneth ignored Xander and looked toward Victor on the second floor. He let out a cold chuckle and said. The military defense system isn't that impressive. He was mocking Victor. Xander's face darkened, wondering what this meant. He asked, What's happened, Kenneth? Let's go upstairs to talk."
"No need Kenneth said as he turned and left the banquet hall.
The bodyguards behind him held Phoebe by her arms.
Phoebe asked, "Kenneth, do you really have to treat me like this?
Just as they left the banquet hall and before going down the stairs, Ray and Eric hurried to stand in front of Kenneth, taking two steps at a time.
Ray glanced at the banquet hall, not understanding what was happening. He didn't see Ophelia, but he noticed the bodyguards dragging Phoebe out.
Feeling a bad premonition, he lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Sinclair, the cargo at Nirvana Harbor was intercepted"
Kenneth's eyes were cold and unfathomably deep. He thought, Good. I knew who did it. He instructed, "Find Jonathan's Jocation
Hearing Jonathan's name, Ray's heart skipped a beat, and his expression showed slight discomfort. He said. "Mr. Sinclair, actually, Mrs. Sinclair had a brief encounter with Mr. Davidson before
Kenneth narrowed his eyes. He immediately turned his gaze to Ray, his expression fierce as if he was ready to eat someone alive. He asked, "Why didn't you mention this earlier?"

Ray swallowed and lowered his head.
Eric said. "Elia isn't a criminal, and you're not her father, so why should Ray report everything about Elia to you? You never seem to believe that Elia can take care of herself. Didn't she do dine all those years without you? Eric's eyes were full of confusion, his hands in his pockets, showing no fear of Kenneth.
Ray frowned as he noticed Kenneth's increasingly grim expressip. He led pulled Eric aside and said, "Shut up."
Then he said to Kenneth. "Mr. Sinclair, I'll take the punishment willingly. Eric doesn't know any better, please don't take it
out on him.
"Why should there be punishment for something so trivial? Erie said, sounding like a child who didn't understand.
"Are you out of your mind? Ray asked as his eyes flashed a warning.
Eric glanced disdainfully at Ray, but he had no intention of stopping. He continued, "Someone kidnapped Elia, and it's no coincidence that a shipment was intercepted at Nirvana Harbor
"It's an attempt to throw you into chaos. If you rush to rescue Elia now, you are just falling into their trap. You must have faith in Elia
"She's the type of person who hates causing trouble for others and wouldn't want to be your weak spot. That last part was directed at Kenneth
On the other side, inside a vintage mansion hidden among tall green plants, Ophelia was led by a woman into a dimly lit study
The tone of the study was incredibly oppressive, and a man was sitting on an armchair. He was dressed in a gray suit, with the collar of his black shirt set with a blue gem that gleamed even in the low light. He held a black cat in his arms. And there was a distinctive dimple on his slightly raised chin.
The woman said, "Mr. Davidson, the person has been brought in
Ophelia watched the figure from a distance. She thought, Mr. Davidson? He is the second son of the Davidson family, Jonathan
Ophelia couldn't speak now; her arms and legs felt as limp as jelly. Seeing Jonathan sent a wave of unease through her heart. She wondered, "Why did he bring her here!
