Simon bent down to pick up the work ID and glanced at it.

Finn laughed with him, “Mr. Ace, don’t put it in your heart of what that person said just now.”

Simon patted off the dust on the work ID and smiled a little, “Mr. Meyer, then you’re wrong. If a

company’s reputation is damaged, I don’t think I need to remind you what consequences will happen,

do I? So, my friends from the media, Hoyle Group will hold a press conference to answer your

questions one by one.”

A reporter asked, “When’s that?”

Simon kept his charming smile, “Soon, of course. The sooner, the better. If we’re slow, the rumors will

be flying all over the sky. With your guys’ famous mouth, we really can’t afford to offend. The moment

we’re not careful, we’ll have to die before your guns. As for the specific time, please leave your number

at the front desk and you’ll all be notified.”

This trick really loosened the reporters’ circle. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Simon got into the

car that had been waiting downstairs.

Finn stood by the car door and wanted to say something but hesitated, “Mr. Ace…”

Simon simply smiled and asked, “Is there anything else, Mr. Meyer?”

Finn waved his hands in a hurried, “No, no.”

“If there’s nothing, then I’ll go ahead first. Mr. Meyer, I wish you good luck.” Simon casted him a

meaningful look, then ordered the driver to drive.

And Finn was baffled by his last sentence. What did it mean to wish him good luck?

After Finn’s car left, the reporters dispersed. Two people got off the car on the other side.

Annie exclaimed in the car, “It’s Big Beard, godfather.”

These two people were Dave and Ivy.

They both were people who liked to manipulate behind the scene. Ivy still owned 15% of the shares. Of

course it wasn’t much compared with Alan’s overwhelming 70%, but it definitely had weight. He also

didn’t attend the shareholders general meeting. Instead, he dispatched a lawyer, but he knew

everything about the meeting.

Dave sighed, “I originally thought that Alan would come to town in person. Unexpectedly, he sent an

assistant and two lawyers. He didn’t show up too. He’s not really explodes on the plane, right?”

“Do you think he dies that easy? What’s more, Kent Bai is beside him.” If Alan died so easily, he would

have died ten times earlier. Then that would be a waste of his expectation of this man.

Dave also thought that Alan was a tough character. But where was he now?

“Then what do you think his next move is? Suddenly appear at the press conference?”

“When do you think he will schedule the press conference?” Ivy reminded him.

Dave turned his mind a few times and shouted, “Tonight’s banquet!”

In the name of Steward, Simon intended to invite Jiangcheng’s wealthy men and women to tonight’s

banquet, and Finn Meyer was on the list.

Back to the car, Dave started the engine. The car’s air conditioner was still the most comfortable. The

summer is getting hotter, but he hoped it could burn that old fellow Finn Meyer to death.

As the car drove away, Dave said, “If I am Finn Meyer, I wouldn’t appear at tonight’s banquet. Think

about it, doesn’t he always claim that he is close with the Hoyle? Even if it’s an act, it should be ended

already. Alan Hoyle is now dead and Mrs. Hoyle is in the hospital, not knowing she’s dead or alive. He

still should have arranged the funeral for the Hoyle Family. How can he still have the thought to attend

this nuisance banquet? This way, it can also give him a good feedback to outsiders who don’t know the

inside story.”

Ivy smiled, “He’ll go.”

Dave came to realize and said, “Alan’s move is really cruel. In front of so many Jiangcheng people with

status, he’ll make Finn Meyer bring shame and ruin upon himself. He wants to place that old fox to

death with no possibility of turning over.”

Ivy chuckled sarcastically, “He could only blame himself.”

“I think we might have really wronged the Hoyle. If our fathers’ accounts were really done by that old

Finn Meyer, I’ll skin him.” Dave’s face showed fierceness.

Old nine died unfathomably, right on the day before he was about to contact. Alan wouldn’t harm others

and all evidences in his hands pointed to Finn Meyer.

“Dave, do you feel like we’ve wasted too much of our youth in order to find the murderer and for

revenge?”

A sudden sigh from Ivy made Dave feel very uncomfortable.

“What’s wrong with you?” The truth was right in front of them. Why he felt like the person in front of him

was being a little melancholy and sad?

Ivy laughed, “Nothing. It’s just that I suddenly feel old.”

“Tsk, you’re old?” Dave looked at him from top to bottom and angrily said, “Are you attacking me on

purpose? With your look, a clean baby face with a quality of evil will still make fifteen or sixteen-year-

old girls call you a flower boy when you’ve reached your 40. Don’t joke around with me.”

“No matter what, I’ve become a godfather for a six-year-old kid already.”

That small, soft body once loved to be in his arms the most. He remembered when she was still

younger, she peed on his shoulders and wet his back.

When they were on the streets that time, they were always mistaken as a family. He even ever brought

clothes for her. In a blink of an eye, her biological father had returned to her.

Dave saw his expression and shook his head, “You haven’t let go? She has a biological father who

loves her already. You can only stand at the side as her godfather.”

Ivy didn’t respond to what he said and suddenly changed the subject, “What are your plans in the

future?”

“What plans? A plan isn’t as good as a change. You know I’m a crude person and that kind of

meticulous planning life doesn’t suits me. To put it bluntly, I’m a person with no ambitions. I used to

have the weight of revenge on my shoulders. Once this matter is over, I think my current life is pretty

good—teasing my woman every day, drinking with the lots of you, teaching a few students, having an

apprentice, and being at ease,” Dave said somewhat contentedly.

A complicated life didn’t suit him. Like Alan Hoyle thinking about how to scheme against people all day

would cause him death from exhaustion.

“Then live fighting for Xenia like this later,” Ivy smiled and patted him on the shoulder with a heartfelt

feeling. He suddenly doubted himself. Was he right or wrong for pulling Dave in on this revenge

together?

“Why do I feel like you’re being weird today?” Although Dave was a big roughneck, he could still sense

some changes from being together with Ivy from morning to night.

“Am I?” Ivy seemed lost.

Dave smiled, “I think you’re envy some people.”

Ivy buckled his hands behind his head and leaned against the chair, “Maybe. Don’t you think she’s very

happy now?”

When you loved someone, it wasn’t like you had to be together. It was actually quite satisfying to see

her being happy from a distance. Alan Hoyle—he had gradually moved on from his hatred at the

beginning. He had to admit that man’s personality charm.

Alan wasn’t necessarily ignorant towards some truth, but he was silent and didn’t incite one against the

other. He once said that this hatred was a matter of the previous generation, but it was a wealth being

able to meet for life and death brothers who would always help.

At first, he snorted at it, thinking that this man was just relying on Kent Bai, a powerful alliance, wishing

to show off his strength. It wasn’t until later that he discovered the deep meaning of his words were

pointing to him and Dave.

This person, Alan Hoyle, was enigmatic, but he was also a man of integrity.

Dave sighed, pulling him back from his flying thoughts.

“She’s happy, but what about you? Should it be the time already to find a woman for a new

relationship? Don’t keep immersing in the past. People move forward, right? Look at me. Aren’t I a big

roughneck before? But I’m troubled when I see a woman. I’ve really fallen into Xenia’s hole. So, we

have to pay attention to fate. You’re not Olive Steele’s and she isn’t your destiny too. Your hole is still

waiting for you somewhere, so don’t let her continue living in your mother-in-law’s house too long.”

Ivy’s lips twitched from his teasing, “You’ve learnt how to joke since you’ve been with Xenia for a long

time.”

“Ten years gap. That brat Xenia keeps complaining I’m older than her. I have to find some something to

make me feel rejuvenated, right?” Dave giggled and touched the back of his head.

Ivy laughed too, but a flash of something difficult to understand passed his smile.

When Finn returned to his home, Mrs. Meyer immediately ordered her servant to bring in iced plum

soup.

“I made it myself. Try how does it taste?”

Finn took a sip and nodded, “Not bad. It’s very cool.”

Mrs. Meyer was delighted to win her husband’s approval. It didn’t put her hard work in vain. Then she

waved off her servant.

Her servant understood and immediately retreated. Then she asked, “How things are going?”

“Pretty well,” Finn answered, then looked around again. “Where’s Ophelia?”

Mrs. Meyer sighed and sat down next to Mr. Meyer. She said a little helplessly, “This child, after she

knows about Alan’s accident, she won’t drink and eat. She locked herself in her room and is

heartbroken.”

“What’s there to feel heartbroken? That person didn’t want her since a long time ago. What’s there to

be heartbroken for a ruthless man?” Finn felt upset for a person he had high expectation for. The

moment he thought of Alan actually putting the Meyer on the spot at the wedding, fury and hatred

surged up.

“Even though I hate him, I never thought of wanting him to die. Dad, if you kill that bitch Olive Steele

and the little bitch she gave birth to, I’ll be extremely happy. But, why didn’t you even let… let go of

Alan?” Ophelia came down and squatted on the stairs, then started crying.

She hated Alan Hoyle. She hated him for willing to leave everything behind to be with them both

mother and daughter, but refusing to give her a chance. But when the person really had disappeared,

she just realized that she didn’t really feel relieved about his and that bitch’s demise.

She hated Olive Steele. Her Alan’s death was all because of that bitch.

Finn walked over to his daughter and said earnestly, “Ophelia, dad has never thought of wanting him to

die. I just really want to help you to vent your resentment. The only person I wanted to deal with was

the mother and daughter, I never thought to harm Alan. After all, I watched him grow up. Even if we

have no blood relation, I still have feelings, right? I just really didn’t expect that he got into the plane

crash. Perhaps, this was his punishment for seducing and then abandoning you.”
