“Ms. Lowell, Sonny is dead.”

In a café, Joanna, wearing sunglasses, sipped her coffee. Upon hearing the news, a sense of reliefwashed over her.

However, she was far from satisfied. “I told you to get rid of him, but you took forever! You’re soslow at your job!”

Jeremy appeared helpless as he explained, “Ms. Lowell, his identity was different, and I dideverything I could. But fortunately, he’s dead now.

“No one will ever know that you impersonated Millie to save Winston. He’ll never discover the truthunless she reveals it.”

“Millie…” Joanna narrowed her eyes. “She’s someone we can’t keep alive.”

Jeremy immediately asked, “Ms. Lowell, are you planning to deal with her?”

“Jeremy, tell me, what kind of person is great at keeping a secret?” Joanna countered with a smirk,a hint of danger flashing across her eyes.

Jeremy’s lips curled into a smile. “A dead person, of course.”

Joanna scoffed and replied, “Then, let’s send her on her way.”

Her plan to eliminate Millie wasn’t new. It had been brewing for a long time.

“Okay!” Jeremy’s excitement grew.

Joanna suddenly interrupted, “But don’t rush. The cruise party is just around the corner, and I’vefound out that the Caldwell family has an invitation. Millie will be there. Jeremy, this is ouropportunity!”

Her gaze grew increasingly sinister as she spoke. The thought of Millie disappearing soon made herimpatient for the day to arrive.

“Ms. Lowell, leave it to me. Just watch,” Jeremy reassured Joanna with a smile. Clearly, he wastrying hard to please her.

That night, at Greer Tower, several senior shareholders relentlessly pressured Winston during avirtual meeting.

“If you can’t even secure a partnership with someone as impressive as Mr. Pearson, what are youcapable of? Winston Greer, we’re losing confidence in your professionalism!”

“I’m ordering you to head to Musbane immediately and close the deal with Mr. Pearson for ourglobal distribution rights!”

Winston frowned, leaning against his chair’s backrest. His gaze was icy as he looked at the peopleon the video call.

“Greer Group will never cooperate with William Pearson! To be precise, no one in Yerwick City will.”

Winston refused to believe anyone would have the audacity to defy the Greers and work withsomeone blacklisted by them.

“Winston, let me be straightforward. William has already taken action. A batch of his goods isalready making its way into Crystal Bay!”

Yet, Winston remained calm. “So?”

“So, someone in Yerwick is working with him behind your back!”

Winston looked up at Eli, who nodded, confirming the situation.

“Why didn’t you mention this sooner?” Winston shot a cold glare at Eli. At that moment, his agitationwas evident.

“Who is it?” Winston demanded.

He had clearly stated that no one in Yerwick City was allowed to work with William. So why wassomeone still taking such a risk?

Before Eli could answer, the older men on the video call yelled, “It’s Kennedy Sullivan!”

“Winston, are you unaware that Kennedy has returned to the country?” someone questioned.

Winston’s expression grew frostier. Kennedy had just returned to the country, yet he had the guts tocollaborate with William. What was worse, he even dared to ship the goods to Crystal Bay!

Winston clenched his right fist and slammed it onto the table. Wasn’t this an outright challenge tohis authority?

He immediately ended the video call, while Eli waited silently for his instructions.

Kennedy really overstepped by challenging Winston’s authority. It was clear he was unaware of thegravity of his actions.

Fuming, Winston turned and pointed at Eli, ordering, “Hold up his cargo at Crystal Bay. I’d like tosee who dares to release it without my consent!”
