“Yeah.”

“What’s this about you resigning? Is Chandler targeting you? I knew it! He can’t stand our family! He’s trying to wipe us out, and it’s outrageous! Has he lost his mind?
“Dalton, you can’t just quit! If you leave, our family loses all influence at Galaxy Holdings Group! At home, we’ll have no say, and how is your dad supposed to come back from abroad?”
Dalton felt overwhelmed and hung up on her.
Before he could catch his breath, another call came in.
This time, it was his friend Billy. “What the hell happened? You guys are family! What’s with the bad blood? Chandler went all out, kicking you out of the company like that?”
Dalton lit a cigarette, letting out a puff of smoke. “I made a mistake.”
“Honestly, it sounds like he’s got it out for you. With the other branches of the Aniston family being so weak, kicking you out means the company is all his now.”
Dalton took a deeper drag on his cigarette, frustration bubbling beneath the surface.
“Let’s be real, Dalton: as men, we can’t afford to be without a career. Plus, we’re all in the same circle; this news will spread

Billy rubbed his face in exasperation. “Why don’t we start our own thing? You put in the cash, I’ll do the legwork. Let’s break free! Honestly, if you distance yourself from the Aniston family and make a name for yourself, you could have your pick of women.”
Billy had always been the one with the wild ideas, but his traditional parents had stifled his entrepreneurial spirit since childhood.
Yet, that restless ambition in Billy had never dimmed.
Hearing this, Dalton felt a flicker of hope.
He thought, “The reason I hesitate to confront Chandler isn’t just because he’s my uncle; it’s the power he holds.
But what if I could stand toe–to–toe with him?
In the business world, we wouldn’t be uncle and nephew anymore; we’d be equals.
If I truly go all in and pursue Meryl, maybe we could rekindle what we had!
Seven years together! I refuse to believe she’s forgotten!
Otherwise, when that knife was aimed at me yesterday, she wouldn’t have warned me to ‘be careful.“”

Meryl’s invitation, he let her in without hesitation.

David’s wife, Julia Cole, approaching forty, looked barely a day over thirty.
Dressed in an intricately embroidered dress, she radiated the elegance of a wealthy socialite, well–maintained and carefree.
Upon seeing Meryl, Julia stepped forward with a warm smile. “Ms. Stone!”
Meryl nodded, “Mrs. Cole, please, just call me Meryl.”
Julia hadn’t expected Chandler’s wife to be so down–to–earth.
With someone like Chandler, being his wife put her at the pinnacle of society.
Attending an event like this was a privilege, and she could easily look down on others, but Meryl had no airs about her at all.
Julia felt an instant connection with her.
Thinking about why she had invited Meryl, Julia glanced back at the staff behind her. “Oh? Where’s Mr. Herty?”
The servant shook his head, glancing around. “Not sure; he was just here a moment ago.”
“Mr. Herty?” Meryl asked, a hint of confusion crossing her face.
