“Nenia, why did you faint? Why are there so many people in the store suddenly? They are all elders. Get out of the way quickly. The air is not circulating. Come on!” Claire didn’t know what was going on, her voice suddenly disappeared completely.

The people sent by Arthur at the door realized something was wrong and rushed in. At the same time, some of the people who were just inside had dispersed.
No matter how agile he was, he was still blocked by many people, especially those women who looked rather plump.

When he rushed to the front of the counter where Claire had been standing, he found that except for Xenia who had fainted on the ground, Claire was nowhere to be seen. “Oh no, tell Mr. Jarrett quickly and take this lady back first.”
Soon, Mateo had just come out of the meeting hall and was about to return to the compound when he received a call.
After hanging up the phone, he walked to Arthur’s side with a nervous expression. “Mr. Jarrett, Claire is in trouble.”
When Arthur heard this, there was no change in his expression, but those who knew him well knew that the air pressure on his body had changed. It became very low.
Mateo’s voice just now was very low, except for the two of them, no one heard it.
However, this scene just happened to be seen by Stella, who had also finished translating and was behind them.
Although she didn’t know why Arthur was speeding up, she still quickly ran forward. “Arthur, wait a minute. I have something to ask you.”
“Mateo.” Arthur said without paying attention to the noise behind him. He continued walking forward after calling out to Mateo.
Mateo stopped her with his hand and said, “Ms. Walton, please stop. Don’t disturb Mr. Jarrett.”
However, he didn’t know if Arthur in front of him thought of something and stopped.
Stella, who was a little frustrated just now because she was stopped by Mateo, now looked much happier. She quickly seized the opportunity and shouted again, “Arthur, you have time to listen to me for a while, right?”
Arthur didn’t say anything, but he turned around quickly and walked up to Stella with an expressionless face. “Go ahead.”
The sudden joy made Stella speechless for a moment. She stammered, “Well, thank you, Arthur, for releasing Lydia from my family.
“Our Walton family will definitely keep a close eye on her in the future and ensure that she won’t cause any more trouble.” After hearing Stella’s words, Arthur sneered twice. “You are quite like your brother Tristan.”
Upon hearing this, Stella said, “Really? Everyone says we don’t look alike. Arthur, you’re the first one to say that. However…” “Alright.” Stella wanted to say something else, but Arthur interrupted her. He continued, “No matter what you, your brother, or your parents are doing, whatever unknown project it is, I advise you to stop as soon as possible.”
“Don’t wait until we have to confront each other directly. It will be too ugly.” After saying this in a stern and oppressive tone, he turned and left without looking back.
Mateo looked at Stella, who was standing there with an embarrassed expression, with disgust. He sneered and followed

Arthur.
Looking at their backs as they walked away, she replayed their words in her mind and let out a cold laugh.

Her already unsightly face was now contorted, appearing even more ferocious and venomous. This was an expression she had never shown before.
She muttered to herself, “Why do I like you? This is just asking for trouble.
“But I just like you. I’ve liked you for so many years, from youth to now.
“You want me to give up just like that? Do you think it’s possible? Easy? No.”
And so, as if she had been greatly stimulated, she kept muttering, until the vibration of her phone brought her back to her senses from the pain. “Hello, Mom.”
Cherise had just met with Trent and was talking to him when she received a call from Morris. After hearing the news, she instinctively tightened her grip on her pregnant belly.
“What’s wrong?” asked Trent, noticing the change in her expression.
“Something happened to my mother. I have to go. Let’s talk later.”
“Alright, go ahead. Don’t worry
about anything here.” Cherise was already far away before he could finish. Trent called after her worriedly, “Cherise, be careful! You’re pregnant. Don’t get too agitated!”
Morris hurried to Betrico Central Mansions.
Someone said to Arthur, “Mr. Jarrett, Mr. Chivers is here.”
Arthur was sitting on the sofa, facing a group of elite guards who had been assigned to protect Claire.
Arthur’s expression was grim, something none of those who followed them had seen in recent years.
The elite guards lowered their heads, looking like they had done something wrong.
Morris saw this as he entered.
He sat down on the sofa beside him. “I’ve seen the surveillance footage. It was indeed sudden and clearly well–planned.
“It’s really hard to find anything wrong at the moment. The Dark Web Division is already on the case and should have results
soon.”
Arthur was not an unreasonable man, and he didn’t originally intend to punish these people too severely. Hearing Morris‘ words, he simply grunted. “Get out. There won’t be a next time. You need more training to improve your vigilance.”
“Yes, sir.” The men bowed in unison and exited Arthur’s office.
